Buenos Aires Luxury Hotels
- Four Seasons Hotel Phone: 11-4808-1200
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "Modern rooms are done in creams and beige. British-style tea is served each afternoon and includes kir royale sorbet; Le Mistral supplies Mediterranean dishes and tapas. Need a pachamama (Inca-style massage)? Head to the spa."
- Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "Spacious guest rooms offer atypical amenities such as walk-in closets, wet and dry bars, stereo systems, and cellphones. Large marble bathrooms contain separate water-jet bathtubs and showers."
- Travel + Leisure 500 Winner: "The historic 1916 mansion offers guests a step back in time, while the modern wing exudes sleek Four Seasons refinement."
- Alvear Palace Hotel Phone: 11-4808-2100
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "Sip afternoon tea served by white-gloved waiters at L'Orangerie. A spa was slated to open at the end of 2007."

- Travel + Leisure 500 Winner: "Full of history and grace, it's the grande dame of Argentine hotels."
- Sofitel Buenos Aires Phone: 11-4131-0123
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "The property has a glass atrium bridge and a treelined path that leads to the reception desk. Art Deco rooms are furnished in Argentine leather and champagne-colored drapes..."
- Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "The lobby resembles an enormous gazebo, with six ficus trees, a giant iron-and-bronze chandelier, an Art Nouveau clock, and Botticino and black San Gabriel marble filling the space."
- Travel + Leisure 500 Winner: "The only hotel located on BA's art gallery-lined Arroyo Street."
- Faena Hotel + Universe Phone: 11-4010-9000
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "Philippe Starck's signature gilding and masses of red velvet get plenty of attention at this 1902 grain warehouse turned 83-room hotel - but it's the service that really shines."
- Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "The rooms are a blend of midcentury classical and modern, based on the white Empire-style furnishings, encased in modern surroundings, with cut-glass mirrors reminiscent of colonial Mexico."
- Fodor's Choice: "Velvet curtains and Venetian blinds open electronically to river and city views; marble floors fill expansive baths; velvet couches, leather armchairs, flat-screen TVs, and surround-sound stereos lend still more luxury."
- Marriott Plaza Hotel Buenos Aires Phone: 11-4318-3000
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "The stately Plaza Hotel - with its elegant French facade overlooking the leafy oasis of Plaza San Martin - has been a Buenos Aires landmark ever since opening its doors in 1909."
- Frommer's Very Highly Recommended: "Twenty-six rooms overlook Plaza San Martin, providing dreamlike views of the green canopy of trees in the spring and summer. "
- Fodor's Choice: "The elegant lobby, crystal chandeliers, and swanky cigar bar evoke Argentina's opulent, if distant, past. Rooms are comfortable and clean, if not particularly spacious."
- Buenos Aires Park Tower Phone: 11-4318-9100
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "Appealing to corporate-carders and pop stars alike, it's no that wonder the Park Tower - which is conjoined with the neighboring Sheraton - ends up on so many 'best of' lists."
- Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "The hotel combines traditional elegance with technological sophistication and offers impeccable service, including butlers for every room."
- Park Hyatt Palacio Duhau Phone: 11-5171-1234
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "Rooms showcase Persian carpets, silk curtains, and crystal chandeliers. Accommodations in the contemporary building are done in neutral tones."

Buenos Aires Moderate Hotels
- Caesar Park Phone: 11-4819-1121

- TripAdvisor 4.5 Rating (Note: Community Ratings; Subject to Change)
- Home Hotel Buenos Aires Phone: 11-4778-1008
- Concierge.com Recommended: "The brainchild of London music producer Tom Rixton and his wife, Patricia O'Shea, this 17-bed hotel - the first in fashionable Palermo Hollywood - is wedged in among ultra-cool bars and fusion eateries."
- Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "I found this to be among the nicest of the new boutique hotels in Palermo. Much of it is due to the young couple that built the place."
- TripAdvisor 4.5 Rating (Note: Community Ratings; Subject to Change)
- Mansion Dandi Royal Phone: 11-4307-7623
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "The spirit of Argentine dance legend Carlos Gardel presides over this 'Residential Tango Academy,' lovingly crafted by artist Hector Villalba from a 1903 Italianate mansion in San Telmo."
- Fodor's Choice: "Tango lessons take place daily in the gorgeous dance hall, and every evening the staff accompanies dancers to milongas, all-night tango parties that take place all over town."

- Castelar Hotel Phone: 11-4383-5000
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "With its outsize neon signage and landmark green-marble facade, the Castelar Hotel & Spa has been cutting an impressive figure on the Avenida de Mayo since 1929."
- Frommer's Very Highly Recommended: "Opened in 1929, the Hotel Castelar is considered a historic highlight of Buenos Aires, as it was once an important stopping point for Spanish-language literary stars..."
- Lonely Planet Selection: "The spa itself is a step back in time, where men smoke and sip Gancia, and women treat themselves to everything from hair brushings to pedicures."
- Aspen Towers Phone: 11-4313-1919
- Frommer's Very Highly Recommended: "Guest rooms are classically decorated, with empire style furniture and soft-colored linens. All rooms feature marble bathrooms with whirlpool baths -- something you're unlikely to find anywhere else in the city at this price."
- TripAdvisor 3.5 Rating (Note: Community Ratings; Subject to Change)
Buenos Aires Affordable Hotels
- Art Hotel Phone: 11-4821-4744
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "When you step into the Art Hotel - located where the tony barrios of Recoleta and Barrio Norte intersect - you might feel as if you've wandered into an art gallery."
- Frommer's Recommended: "Some rooms are on the small side, but all have such interesting details as polished concrete floors with embedded ornamental tiles and comfy linens in neutral tones and wicker accents on the furniture."
- Lonely Planet Selection: "Luxurious cast-iron canopy beds, hardwood floors and arched doorways all add to the romance and charm. Every month a new art exhibit graces the walls of the lobby and breakfast area."
- Bo Bo Hotel & Restaurant Phone: 11-4774-0505
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "Wireless Internet access is hotelwide; absent is a business center, although the young staff will gladly offer reception's setup should the need arise."
- Lonely Planet Selection: "The rooms are upstairs and have all the mod-cons necessary. The Pop room boasts a tub with a window over the bath, while the stand-out touches are its strip lighting, stainless steel bathroom sink, small balcony, industrial TV-table and glass desk."
- TripAdvisor 4.5 Rating (Note: Community Rating; Subject to Change)
- Che Lulu Trendy Hotel Phone: 11-4772-0289
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "The minimalist decor matches the minimal tariffs, making the traditional Palermo home with its small courtyard a favorite of both the bohemian and backpacking crowds."
- Lonely Planet Selection: "Rooms are miniature, and some lack windows, but the beautifully designed common area more than makes up for it."
- TripAdvisor 3.5 Rating (Note: Community Rating; Subject to Change)
- Hotel Plaza Francia Phone: 11-4804-9631
- Concierge.com Recommendation: "The surrounding greenery makes for stately views, particularly from the upper-story balcony rooms that look out over the Rio de la Plata. The interiors of the 48 rooms won't win any design awards, but they're clean and well appointed."
- Lonely Planet Selection: "Snag a room on one of the upper floors and you'll be gazing all the way to the Rio de la Plata (and beyond) and across the plazas of Recoleta. You can even watch the planes land at Aeroparque."
- TripAdvisor 4.0 Rating (Note: Community Rating; Subject to Change)
- Hotel Lion D'Or Phone: 11-4803-8992
- Lonely Planet Selection: "The Lion D'or is about the fabulous arched ceilings of the entryway, the unadorned reception counter, the beautiful old wooden elevator that stops with a resounding clunk, the cracked paint, the incongruous coffee dispenser, the smell of old wood, and the perfect lack of modern conveniences."
- TripAdvisor 3.5 Rating (Note: Community Rating; Subject to Change)
- Lina's Tango Guesthouse Phone: 11-4361-6817
- Frommer's Exceptional Rating: "If you really want to expose yourself to the tango scene, this is the place to stay. Owner Lina Acuna, who originally hails from Columbia, opened this charming little spot in 1997."

- The Recoleta Hostel Phone: 11-4812-4419

- Carlos Gardel Hostel Phone: 11-4307-2606
