Safe basic accommodation with helpful staff
Convenient, very safe location right in the middle of all the action. Property is older--torrential rain during my stay led to roof leaks in the hallways/landings with buckets catching the water. Breakfast was minimal, some croissants and toast. Stairs are steep, no elevators. Security is excellent as front door is always locked. Staff are very friendly and eager to assist the hotel guests. I did notice the wood floor in the room was very dirty, as after walking just a dozen steps or so the bottoms of my feet were black. Also, during the shower, the hot water would just randomly turn off (I don't mean turn cold, I mean turn OFF completely) and then 2 minutes later turn back on. This happened 3 times during one shower. Overall, I would say this is a fair value for the money, given the location and the helpfulness of all the front desk staff. Despite the few flaws, I would still stay here again in the future and would recommend this to travelers who want a good deal in the heart of all the action without spending a fortune. Note that the neighborhood is very noisy (not the fault of the hotel of course) so if you are a light sleeper, this area of Palermo could be a problem. The hotel guests themselves were all respectful and quiet.

Nice stay in Palermo
Nice place to stay. Nothing special about it but nothing wrong either. Friendly staff. Rooms are basic but do the job. Excellent neighbourhood around Palermo with great places to go out and eat/drink! Wifi only works in the reception area.

Great location with incredible staff
Incredible location in Palermo but what sets this place apart is the staff. We arrived into BA very early morning, and flew out at midnight, and they were very accommodating allowing us to check in early when we arrived, and access a shower the day we left before a long flight home, and helped us out with any questions we had during our stay. Vibe is more like a b&b than a hotel or hostel, and location is close to lots of great bars in Palermo.

Small room, fine for a night or 2. No elevator, narrow stairs to navigate to 2nd floor. Lots of interesting restaurants nearby. Tried Hola Jacoba - latkes with salmon, a new fav. Pablo & Dahlia were a big help in booking Colonia Express tickets, the kind of service you would not find at larger properties & very much appreciated. Breakfast simple, but with croissants that good, very pleased.

Great for those who want to stroll Buenos Aires
This hotel is in a wonderful location. We walked around the neighborhood to shops and restaurants and also to the Botanical Gardens. The staff provided maps and oriented us to the neighborhood upon arrival and they stored our luggage so we could enjoy our last day in Argentina before heading to the airport.

This place is truly amazing! The staff is first class, super helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Happy to assist with anything you may need; restaurant recommendation, tour reservation or even sorting out your laundry at a great price :) The location could not be any better, very close to the old city/historic centre with many amazing restaurants, but far enough to be a very relaxing and quiet. ... and finally the "icing on the cake" - the espresso machine and the afternoon cake!! I miss this place already!

Overall I would recommend Republica Palermo. The only slightly downside is that it was a bit of a walk to the subtle (about 15 minutes), which you need to take to get to many of the tourist attractions in Buenos Aires. However, it is close to many great cafes, restaurants and bars and it is a really beautiful area, so it depends what you're after in your holiday.

Overall the Republica Palmero is a great option to stay for relatively cheap in the Palmero Soho region of Buenos Aires. Agustin at the front desk is extreme helpful and even emailed me the day before asking for flight information and on how the best way to get to the hotel is. Everyone else working was extremely nice and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. Had some struggles figuring out the hot water but after we did there was no complaints. The wifi didn't reach our room too effectively but was fast and free in the lobby. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a cheaper option in Palmero Soho.

Bien ubicado
Su ubicación es muy buena porque está cerca de la plaza y los bares. La habitación era linda pero con algunas manchas de humedad y arañas por todos lados y hasta una cucaracha muerta nos recibió en el baño. La limpieza se veía bien hasta que empecé a correr las camas para matar las arañas y los rincones estaban llenos de tierra. Otra cosa desagradable fue que nosotros fuimos con niños y se escuchaban demasiado los ruidos de las otras Habitaciones y Justo había una pareja muy enamorada en el cuarto del al lado porque lo que fue bastante incómodo estar escuchando cdo tenían relaciones.

Gracias por tu respuesta. En cuanto a lo de la cucaracha muerta, justamente sucede porque el hotel esta fumigado, posiblemente haya salido de la rejilla del baño. lamentamos no haberla visto antes de que ingrese, posiblemente sucedio posterior a su ingreso y a la revision de habitaicón. Con respecto rincones con tierra y arañas trataremos de mejorar ese tema con nuestra persona de limpieza. Gracias!

Habitación regular, personal muy agradable
La atención del personal del hotel fue excelente. Viajé con dos niños y recibí toda la ayuda que necesité. La habitación es mucho más pequeña de lo que muestran las fotos (estuve en una habitación triple) y lo que no me gustó fue que no había calefacción adecuada. Hacía mucho frío, y en el baño no había calefacción. Me facilitaron una estufa eléctrica que ayudó bastante. El acolchado de la cama de dos plazas (una cama bastante angosta) era de una plaza, o sea, no llegaba a cubrir la totalidad de la cama. La limpieza era regular, lo mismo que el estado de la habitación (paredes a medio pintar, cortinas black out pero colocadas de manera tal que la luz del día pasaba por los costados de las ventanas, toallas viejas, un placard con un espejo suelto adentro). El servicio de la habitación no se hizo porque yo no coloqué el cartel colgado del picaporte de la puerta de la habitación (cartel que estaba escondido en el placard, y de cuya existencia nadie me había advertido). El hotel cuenta con una cocina muy bien equipada y con sector para comer. A 100 metros hay un supermercado en donde venden comida para llevar. A pocos metros del hotel hay un estacionamiento pago. También se puede dejar el auto en la calle.

Hola, Muchas Gracias por tu comentario. Le comento su duda; con respecto al servicio de desayuno ya esta aclarado al momento que realizo la reserva dado que la misma dice que la tarifa no incluye régimen de comidas. Con respecto al precio, las tarifas en Expedia están cargadas en dolares, ya que es una pagina internacional y en el caso de pasajeros que abonen en pesos se les toma al cambio oficial.

Bairro bom Hotel Ruim.
Serviço de recepção somente até as 22hrs, caso você chegue depois deste horário por qualquer imprevisto, ficará na rua, pois não haverá ninguém na recepção e a porta estará trancada. Banheiro minusculo horrível para tomar banho. Berço da bebê sem colchão, por isso ela teve que dormir na cama de casal e eu na cama de solteiro. Na seleção do site, indiquei hotel com café da manhã e quando cheguei no hotel não havia. Além de ter que pagar em dólar no ato no hotel, mas só fiquei sabendo que não seria cobrado em real depois que fiz a reserva no Hotel.com e não poderia cancelar. Não recomendo!
