Very Centric and well located Hotel

It was an overall great experience, with the exception of the included Breakfast because the Cafeteria Staff were always in a bad mood. The place is not a hotel but the people in the Reception were always friendly and accommodating no matter how late it was. In front you have a convenience store so you can buy Water and snacks at decent prices and you can even heat something in the Microwave. I was there on business so I barely stayed at the place, but i could walk everywhere and the restaurants in the area are great. I lost my SIM card and the cleaning lady found it and left it on the front desk, so I was extremely grateful for this. Will definitely come back next time.

4 Day stay in convenient area

Diego and other receptions were very helpful form the outset. The hotel was close to Subte (subway) stations and so convenient which was fab! The bathroom was a little tired with cracked tiles though clean enough. A little kitchenette in room is useful and AC worked fine. Really appreciated the hotel service and advice received for a first time visit to Buenos Aires. Thank you!

Not a Tourist City

Breakfast was included, but the owner did not show up late in the morning to prepare breakfast, we had a 9:30 city tour and almost did not make the tour. very little English is spoken by the restaurant owner.

Great location in downtown Buenos Aires.

We were greeted by English speaking staff who helped us identify where to exchange money on Florida. This was a really good location in walking distance to many of our needs. Great restaurants without having to go too far at night. The room itself was very comfortable and the hotel was secure. There was a safe in the room. The information provided to us was accurate and transport was organised for us to the Airport at a reasonable rate. I would definitely stay there again. Great value for money.

Reasonable location. Good rates. Repairs Underway

Construction replacing the floor in the lobby bar can be heard in the room. The elevator was not working on our arrival but help was given to get the bags to the room. The staff was friendly, spoke good English and gave many helpful suggestions.

Extremely loud and poorly decorated

The room is extremely cheaply decorated and the sheets were old and filthy. Don't expect any kind of luxury here. The street is very loud so unless you hate sleeping, don't stay here.

Glitzy facade, but rickety foundation

First impressions are that you've snagged a four star apartment at the price of a two star, but there are reasons why it is inexpensive... mostly due to some silly design flaws. Firstly, whilst the room is marketed as an apartment, this is just smoke and mirrors. The absence of a stove, table/chairs etc. means that the plates will go unused. Secondly, the double bed is two singles pushed together -- but due to the trickery with the sheets, you unfortunately only realise this when you crash to the floor in the middle of the night (the tiles are well-polished). Thirdly, there is no cleaning service unless you pay additional for it. Which means that you don't, you may be heading to the local mini market to replace the toilet roll. The list goes on, but my point should be clear.

Fantastic hotel in the heart of downtown

This hotel was excellent--bright and spacious rooms, friendly English-speaking staff, and right in the heart of downtown. (Tip: when watching TV, hit the SAP button; for many channels, this will switch the audio to English.) The downsides were that you have to pay extra for the maid service (I didn't mind this, though) and traffic can sometimes be loud for rooms facing the street. A final word of caution: Avenue Rivadavia itself is scruffy and rundown. Always approach the hotel from the busy street one block south (de Mayo), especially at night; this is very simple and easy to do. I myself was never hassled, but Rivadavia set off all sorts of alarm bells for me.

Perfect

I stayed in various hotels during my 10 days in Argentina and this was, by far, the most comfortable and cost effective. I only stayed for one night in between flight connections and my room was more like an apartment. Very spacious with all the essentials. Riva urban lofts is modern, bright, clean and welcoming. Nothing fancy but it was exactly what I wanted - almost a home from home. It has a great location and although I didn't venture out, I was aware of how central it was having stayed in BA the previous week. It was by far my favourite hotel of the trip - not the best hotel - but definitely my favourite as I was pleased with its simplicity. The staff were a credit to the hotel - extremely helpful and welcoming. If I return to BA I will definitely be staying here again.
