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 !!
