It’s important to understand this hotel is far beyond its best days. I am sure then it was absolutely majestic, but now it’s just really lacking luster and glamour. Being across from the square will seriously disrupt any sleep you plan to get. The window was broken in our room to accommodate a portable ac.

We stayed for 3 nights. Pros: Great location, good breakfast, and friendly staff. Cons: Very noisy throughout the day and night. Our room faced Plaza San Martín, which offered an excellent view, but the street is crowded all night, and loud music from a nearby nightclub played until 4–5 a.m. both nights. Also, while the hotel is clean and in good condition, keep in mind that it’s over 100 years o, so don’t expect modern amenities.

Staff courteous and nice Old historic building falling in disrepair. Rug old weary, not clean. Smell old building which it can be fixed easily with so many new odor dispersing tech. Room 334 bathroom broken faucets, old “ baby toilet”, rusty areas, dirty curtain shower, windows broken to open and close, Dirty walls and doors, lack of clean and painting. Stayed Saturday night and the outside party was loud inside our rooms until 7 am. Not exaggerating. So sad this magnificent building is falling apart inside due to lack of repair and painting.

The rooms are dark, bare, and noisy. There was no outlet to plug your phone in next to the uncomfortable bed you were given to sleep on with awful cheap dated linens. Also, it’s not a safe place to walk around at night. Besides that, it’s a wonderful place to stay in that has no pool for way too much money.

It’s a pretty old but beautiful hotel, but there are some downsides…. The streets outside are pretty noisy, but maybe it was because we had the room adjacent to the street. We had four people and ran out of hot water for showering at the end, but might be because of rush evening hour for water hmusage. The breakfast was good though, and it’s a 10-minute walk from Plaza de Armas.

Check in and check did not go well. I booked and paid for 2 beds for 2 guests for 2 nights. This was because I didn’t want my guest who lived locally to have any issue visiting me. At check in, I was asked where second guest was, I explained, yet said I want the 2 bed room I booked. I was given a room with 1 bed. I went down and explained I paid for 2 beds and would like 2 beds. The room I was put in had moldy stains and blood stains on curtains, dirty stained lamp shade, and sheets had particles of even pieces of hair at the bottom inside the sheets. The sink was running and would not turn off. This second room was visibly worse than the first room I was in- unsure if it was intentional. I was woken up by front desk on Whatsapp at 11:55PM the day of my check in while I was sleeping. I rejected the call. I was then messaged saying I need to check in my other guest. I wrote back (while half asleep) saying no one else is in my room. I was informed there would be a fee for my guest up to 4 hours. Huh?! I checked out early at 4:30pm the next day because I had a flight. I was told I am supposed to check out the next day. I explainrd I needed to book 2 nights if I wanted to check out at 4:30pm since regular checkout is at noon. The front desk then just started texting on her phone and I stood there. I said what is going on? She said my room needs to be checked. Okay..Why not tell me that so I can go sit down and wait instead of staring at you while you text on your phone?

A time capsule from the 1920s

Absolutely amazing hotel with so much history. If you prefer the beauty of bygone eras over modernity this is the hotel for you. Splurge and get the junior suite. It's basically an entire apartment with gorgeous inlaid hardwood floors, 15 ft ceilings a balcony and many period features.
