This is a great list. Note, not all these hotels a chica friendly. I've stayed at the Hotel Lion D'or. There's a sign there saying that visitors should meet you in the lobby, they are not allowed in the rooms.
One of the greatest hotels in the world is in BA. The Alvear Palace is an incredible hotel. Yes, it is expensive, but you can't beat the location. Very friendly.
I'll add it to the list, but at the price of the room does a Chica come with it?

The best place I've stayed in BA is Christoro Columbo in Palermo. For the longest time it was $15-$25 on Travelocity. I stayed away becuase the price was so low and I didn't expect much. But I stayed there before the price shot up. It's nice. The rooms are really suites / apts. They have a living room, bedroom and a kitchen area. The quality is about what a Sheraton or Hyatt Regency would be in the states. Chica Friendly, but it's in the $70 range now.

Planning to go to Buenos Aires next year from Sydney.
Has anybody any comments on Edificio Montevideo. Value, guest friendly. Etc?
Hello,
Which cheap hotels are chica friendly in that list?
I mean hotels from 15-50 US dollars.
Why don't you use their webpages and email them with your question?
For the EXTREME budget traveler that only wants their hotel as a place to sleep, I remember a friend of mine that stayed at a place called "Hotel Mickey". It is right next to the infamous "eden" rip off joint on Talcahuano right off of Corrientes.
My friend stayed in a room for like 30 pesos a night. (yes, thats pesos) Granted its not the best looking place and the street is somewhat seedy plus the tout from Eden trying to get you to go in his joint but if you are in a serious budget jam and don't want to stay at ayouth hostel you can try this. I don't have their number and don't know how to get it but its 2 blocks from the obelisco. I highly doubt they are chica friendly. The rooms don't have windows in them and the sheets are like from the 80's. But hell, for this price go get yourself a transitorio when you want a chica!

The prices on the list are now about US$30-40 higher.
I had a hell of a time trying to find a hotel for the 24. I tried about 25 hotel, til I found one.
If you are coming to B.A. get a reservation first.
Decent cheap hotels -
Victory Hotel on Maipu between Paraguay and Cordoba. 100 pesos (AC and Cable TV) Chica friendly.
Tres Sargentos - Down at the end of the Tres Sargentos street - Also around 100 pesos - Not too chica friendly but you have Horizonte a block away.
Most of the hotels on Avda. De Mayo. But be careful, they go from modest but clean to sleezy -
Always ask to see the room first - Most of these places don't have breakfast included.
Sometimes it's better to spend a little more on a hotel where you get a good breakfast which allows you to skip lunch.
I stayed at the Victory Hotel at my stay Buenos Aires, frankly because it was the only thing available, and it was 155 not 100 pesos. But this was the the nastiest, dirty rotten hotel I have ever been to. I would not let my worst enemy stay there, The staff have got to be the dumbest, stupid most incombetent people I have ever seen. The hotel was dirty, no air conditioning, no ice, and the bed are so small I kept falling off in the middle of the night. The head person there, was Laura, and she kept her head in the ground like an ostridge, and they are not chica friendly, they charged me 30pesos each time, ad after the fourth one they advised me no mas mujeres, this is a family hotel.
I know it is hard to find a place, but did is the very bottom of the barrell.
STAY AWAY.
