If run correctly, the Etoile would have the opportunity to be one of the best hotels in Buenos Aires. Unfortunatley, the place is like staying in the U.S. version of Motel 6. Rooms: Stayed in one level above standard; the room was large, including a separate area for the bed, bath and lounge area. Not sure what died on the... more

First I will say that the rooms are huge - maybe 900 sq feet, divided into 3 sections - the problem was that the rooms were shabby and with very little furniture, making them seem very strange. Also, I booked a queen bed; what they tried to pass off as a queen was really a double bed - way too... more

The best attribute of the hotel I would say is the location. In the heart of Recoleta neighborhood with great views and close to many bars, restaurant and shops. Recoleta is a nice part of town, mainly residential. From ths location is easy to catch a cab to other city attractions- The breakfast buffet is very complete- eggs/pancakes/fruit/cold cuts/cheeses, specially... more

This hotel is located right in the middle of everything: bars, restaurants, night clubs, shopping and right across the street from the world-famous Recoleta Cemetery. The rooms are good size, staff are very helpful and knowledgeble, the rooftop pool complements the view. However, plumbing and appliances show their age, although everything functions. I would stay there again. more

The location is fantastic, right next to restaurants, close taxi stop, safe location. The hotel is a different story. Some of the front desk people are challenging, others are fantastic.

After complaining... more

The Etoile is in a perfect location, in the center of the elegant Recoletta, near fanstastic, elegant restaurants and boutiques. While it's not brand-spankin' new, it's very clean and the rooms have all the amenities. It's not the Hilton and that's what we loved about it. The restaurant serves a beautiful buffet breakfast with excellent coffee/special breakfasts service. The front... more

We were staying 6 nights in this hotel in 2004, but even after couple of years I do cherish our time there. The place is very good if you want to enjoy the city, its neighborhoods and attractions. Room's size was decent, food was OK, but the view of River Plate was breathtaking more

To those who want to visit Buenos Aires, Etoile Recoleta has a very good price and stays at an excellent neighborhood, close to many bars and restaurants as well as the nicest shops and boutiques. The bedroom is large and all the rooms have bathtub with hydro. Also, the breakfast is very good. I couldn't chose a better offer! Much... more

The room I had wason the 9th floor with birds eye view of Recoleta area eg the Recoleta village,cementary, art gallery and river plate. I was impressed with the facilities of the... more
