I stayed at the nogaro with 2 friends sharing a triple room before backpacking. The room and hotel had excellent amenities and a fantastic breakfast. Staff were polite and rooms made up everyday etc. The hotel had a lovely 30's feel to it but was bang up to date. The bathroom I had had wonderful fixtures and fittings. Free internet in the basement and so central.

Liked it so much we booked a stay on our way out of BA. The price does not reflect the location of the hotel. $198 US per night (split 3 ways).
A hotel this close to the city centre, in any other capital city would be twice the price!

The hotel is near subway and Main Square. Very typical European-style hotel - small rooms but clean. Efficient laundry, free internet, and I love its breakfast.

For just under US$100 per night the hotel was a good deal and it was certainly acceptable. It is an older hotel that has been renovated. The lobby is kind of cool and modern. The rooms have new coats of paint and new furniture but I didn't feel that they were as nice as the pictures on the various booking websites. The bathrooms were fairly outdated and hadn't been updated much. They do have very good free wireless internet.

The staff spoke English fluently and were all very helpful. The location is in a very convenient location just off of Plaza de Mayo with the Bolivar subway station (E Line) just outside. It has very close access to Catedral (D Line) and Peru (A Line) stations. It is also an easy walk to the Florida shopping street, Cafe Tortoni, and the San Telmo neighborhood.

Also, I had no problems with noise as has been reported for a lot of BA hotels. A few sounds from the hallway but no worse than any other hotel I've stayed in.

Before I left for Buenos Aires I decided to stay here three nights before going to Iguazu Falls and then return to a different hotel for my final two days just to try different areas of the city. When I returned I stayed at Tryp Buenos Aires which was very impressive for just a little more (about US$120). (Check out my review of that hotel for details.)

I found 562 Nogaro to be very similar to hotels where I've stayed in London, Paris, and Rome but for far less money. If I hadn't stayed at another hotel I would have been perfectly happy with the great value for what I received. But, now having seen the Tryp Buenos Aires, I found paying a bit more really buys you a lot.

My son was invited to tour Argentina with his soccer team. Some of the parents decided to tag along and our stop in Buenos Aires was booked at the 562 Nogaro.

My husband and I had a room on the 5th floor. While very small, it was clean and felt very European in nature. The natural hardwood floors were spectacular! Our window opened up to a nice, quiet courtyard and we felt safe enough to sleep with the windows open at night.

This hotel is located very close to the Plazo de Mayo complete with all it's local charm and charisma (we were treated to a protest about the paper factories in northern Argentina -- protests and local color are a daily thing, apparently, in that plaza. The protesters were all very respectful and I never felt in harms way at any time despite the very obvious police presence). Cabs all over the city were inexpensive and fast -- we did our fair share of shopping and eating!

The breakfast bar is exceptional (try that special local dish that has various meats wrapped around hard-boiled eggs and then sliced thin!) and the staff was exceptionally accomodating as to keeping it open hours that it wasn't normally for our team. Room service was so-so; don't waste your time. Take a cab to La Brigada and enjoy a REAL meal.

Small TV, and NO ALARM CLOCK or IRON (even at the front desk) which were our only complaints. Fantastic housekeeping service, but they won't replace the glasses in the room regardless of whether you used them for brushing your teeth or drinking wine. Good Malbec wine!

Enjoy Buenos Aires!
