“Great value and location”

Claridge Hotel

Aug 20, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

I stayed 7 nights altogether with a break in the middle. The hotel is lovely and the staff are exceptionally helpful. My only complaint is that the first room was next to the staff service lift and corridor and was very noisy on and off from 7.30am through to 11pm,(room 413). The second room was noisy because it was an adjoining room and there seemed to be no sound proofing at all (612). There was a demonstration on Aug. 7 because some staff were sacked in July. We came back from shopping to check out, to find riot police and the hotel covered in graffitti. The staff were great and helped us get a taxi but they could have warned residents in advance as they put the grills on the windows so they had obviously been expecting it. It was quite scary to arrive outside and hear drums and watch firecrackers being thrown at the hotel. Also, the pool was closed fro renovation for a month.
Best rates anywhere are hotel website. Even the hotel staff offered me rates US$45 higher per night.

“great choice”

Claridge Hotel

5 of 5 stars
New Zealand
Aug 7, 2008

We stayed at the Claridge for a family wedding.
Our family had 4 rooms booked for 9 days and they were all excellent.
Maybe a little over perfumed, but very clean. All had a safe which was essential..

Several other friends stayed as well and we all got great rooms. Some changed rooms which was no hassle.

Staff were friendly and helpful.

Highly recommended

“Perfect location, ideal for a city stay”

Claridge Hotel

5 of 5 stars
Cork, Ireland

1/2 found this review helpful

Our first stop in South America and The Claridge was a real bonus to start with. Checked in early and the staff at the desk were superb all through. Their english is perfect and they showed great consideration in everyway to all the questions they were asked. They were very informative and always very attentive, they rang places up and made bookings for tours and a Tango show. Top marks for those at the front desk.
The location of the hotel could not be better, come out the front door, turn right and 1 minute later you are on Florida the main pedestrianised street in BA, turn left and 10-15 mins you are in the new port area, full of good restaurants, a great place for a drink and to watch the world go by. A really good restaurant is a 1 min walk out the door of the hotel and on the left, on the corner of the hotels street and San Martin, Posada de 1820. Well worth a visit.
We stayed on the 4th floor, the room was comfortable, not the biggest but that was not our concern, very clean, comfortable with air conditioning and plenty of clean towels. The buffet breakfast was incredible, you do get sick of it after a few days, but the choice is incredible, hot and cold and a huge array of pastries. You canread the Buenos Aires Herald as you dine in the morning. The bar is a nice place to relax in the afternoons and the toasted ham and cheese sandwich is huge and one would do for 2 people. Dont be in a hurry here, as everything is very relaxed!!! A great place to plot your next excursion or shopping trip !!!!! A great hotel in the heart of the Argentinian capital, was just perfect.
On your 1st night in BA and you have nothing planned, ask the desk to book Senor Tango, you get collected from hotel, dinner and a great show which introduces you to Argentina. A good start !!

“Excellent Stay for the Price in the Middle of BA”

Claridge Hotel

Jul 6, 2008
1/2 found this review helpful

We spent a long weekend in Buenos Aires and wanted to stay reasonably close to the Porto Madeira neighborhood. We saw the Claridge hotel rated well for the price by various sites and were not disappointed.

The location is fairly central, not far from Porto Madeira and very walkable to the Recoleta, Plaza de Mayo, etc. The neighborhood itself is kind of non-descript, though there are some decent restaurants in the area. Across the street is a mall type shopping complex which specializes in computer hardware and electronics shops.

Check-in and service in general was very good. I'd say, one of the better places I've stayed in BA in terms of service, at any price (my experience runs about 4 different hotels, mostly in price ranges above this one).

The hotel is in decent condition, though not excellent. It's obvious that much of it was renovated within the last 5 years, but BA air being what it is (i.e., polluted), things can get worn looking pretty quickly. The entrance and lobby do well in terms of giving the hotel a European / English feeling, and are very nice, actually, for this price range. Off the right side of the lobby is the bar / restaurant area, which is in an unusual style ... sort of half pub with stained glass windows, etc. and half "English Hunting Lodge" or something close to that. It's dark with wood paneling and has one or two animal heads hung on the wall ... different.

Our rate included daily breakfast which was served in the restaurant area. The spread was great and had pretty much any breakfast food you could want, within reason. The breakfast buffet included fruit, dairy, breads, hot items (e.g., eggs and bacon), various beverages, etc.

The room was nice and well appointed. There were some dark areas near the heating / a/c vents, but otherwise the room was in good condition and clean. Sheets and beds were good. Bathroom was a good size and included an adult sized bathtub (not like the bathtubs you find in many American hotels that are deep enough to get your feet wet, maybe). Included were the soap, shampoo, etc. that you expect in a hotel of this type (i.e., fairly nice, but not luxurious).

I can't comment on room service as we didn't try it. However, the pool and associated service was great. I hung out by the outdoor pool a day and had lunch, etc. there. Was very nice. The pool is a decent size, which is suprising considering this is in the middle of BA. It's like a little oasis in the city.

Overall, I strongly recommend this hotel for people looking for a reasonably priced British-style hotel with good service in Buenos Aires. The pool, breakfast, and location will keep me coming back, I think.
