Sheraton Buenos Aires Hotel and Convention Center
We stayed at thus hotel 15 years ago. The age is showing. Whike still nice it isn't up to the standards i expected. Also, be aware that the pillows are terrible. I woke up throughout the night and had a terrible back ache each morning.

The only draw back is that even though the bathrooms have a good size, the shower are minuscule. It is almost impossible for an average size person shower without hitting the sides or the faucet.
