Best in BsAs
We have been to Buenos Aires over eight times and have stayed and multiple hotels around the city, therefore I believe to have a good point of reference. This is without a doubt the best hotel in Buenos Aires! The rooms although on the small side, are perfectly decorated in a classic style. The staff is phenomenal: they greeted us by our names (how do they do it!), knew that we had two reservation one week apart, offered us to leave things at the hotel to reduce our load while traveling around the country since we were staying there our last night before leaving the country, and on and on. The staff is just superb. We also ate at their restaurant and its a french culinary delight and highly recommended also. I will look no further....this is where I will always stay in Buenos Aires and look forward to my next visit!

Luxury hotel with superb customer service
Early morning arrival was no problem, with an early check-in easily facilitated, including a hot drink in the breakfast restaurant while bags were taken to the room. Very comfortable spacious and well presented room with all of the amenities required. The bathroom was well designed with a bathtub and seperate shower including a rain head. Maria at concierge was amazing! Wonderfully friendly and extremely helpful with planning day activities, with a great knowledge of options available and which tour operator to best consider. All communications were in English with no problems at all. A highly recommended hotel in a secure and convenient location.

Luxury stay
This is such a beautiful hotel. We stayed in a junior suite on the 11th floor. So some views and lots of light coming in to the room. The king size bed was the softest we'd slept in. And a lovely large room. We ordered room service on the first night which was ok. My club sandwich was delicious but my husband got a dry hamburger with no sauces to add. And the chicken Caesar salad was just green leaves with croutons and a dressing. Considering it wasn't cheap that was a bit disappointing. I will say however when there were mistakes with the room services charges at checkout (we ordered twice during our stay) they rectified the issue immediately and were very good about it. The breakfast buffet was really lovely. With lots of fresh juices, fruit, yoghurt, beautiful cheeses, delicious breads, a hot buffet choice, hot meal from the menu and fresh espresso coffees on order. The staff at breakfast were hit and miss. Some very friendly and then some were quite rude and even ignored us on one occasion. We felt at times they wanted us out even when the restaurant was very quiet. There were road works out the front which we didn't know about but it really didn't affect our stay. The hotel is in a residential area and each room has very heavy doors so it was incredibly quiet. It's not a fantastic location for restaurants and cafes because of where it is but the hotel has it's own restaurant and cafe.

Not a five star
The Sofitel lobby, bar, and restaurant are all five star but surprisingly the rooms are not even close. The hallways and rooms are 3.5 star at best. Hallways are beat up and dirty. Rooms are very tired and in need of updating. There is an old musty smell that permeates the room, most likely coming from the old drapes, upholstered furniture, and stained carpet. I was very disappointed. While the location is great, there are many other hotels in the area from which to choose.
