General Hotel Reports

Had business in BA. The company travel coordinator booked me at the very overpriced Sheraton. It seems that in addition to charging way too much for a room, they don't particularly like chicas. Or was it just me? At any rate, I checked out and moved to the Gran Hotel Dora. Price was an object. The front desk seemed chica friendly, at least they didn't complain when I brought a lady back.

Nice Argie business hotel. Highspeed internet in the room. The room was clean, the hotel was in good if not five star great shape. More later.

[QUOTE=AllIWantisLove]Is it generally possible / practical (assuming you have high-speed internet in the room) One of my fears is that they might block it. Hotels just love ripping you off on phone calls.

Thanks, Bob[/QUOTE]I doubt they would block Vonage but most hotels require some kind of browser based authentication process to use HS Internet so using a Vonage adaptor would get tricky. A softphone would be no problem although last time I looked at the Vonage offering, it was an expensive alternative. Better to get something like Skype or GizmoProject that runs on your laptop.

I'm usually travel without reservation all over the world and I never found so many problem to find a hotel as in BA in my last 3 weeks trip.

Many hotels were completly full.

I stopped in a "locutorio" and started calling many hotels and finally found a room in Sarmiento Palace - we were travelling in 3 and we found only 1 triple for 60 usd (good quality with 2 sleeping room)

Many tourist and working peolple now in BA, better to reserve before.

(Its Christmas Eve - ANYONE ELSE IN CORDOBA?

I'm at that hotel now, per the recomendation of someone else on AP. It pretty good, basic comfortable, nice people and 82 pesos w. IVA and breakfast. Not sure about chica frienly cause I havent tried. And they will gadly give you a back-facing quiet room if you ask.

In my opinion the fisrt criterion on any low or medium priced hotel in NOISE. I spent one night, my first in Argentina, in a front facing noisy room. As Goerge Patton might have said, it was heck - like sleeping under a running bus.

Argenta Towers is a very freindly chica welcome spot. Its located on Juncal st. And Santa Fe. Easy walking to some great eye candy for choosing.

Happy hunting!

I will be staying at the Marriott for the weekend in a week. Is the hotel girl friendly? And how is the location? Close to the attractions?

Thanks in advance for any information.

Sorry I didn't see this sooner.

I normally stay at the Marriott. Never had a problem with girls coming up at any time of the day or night. If they are coming on a pre-arranged appointment, I usuall get a call from the front desk telling me my guests are here and I say it is OK to send her or them up. Never a problem.

Last time down, when I walked in with a girl I was never stopped for ID or anything. I usually walked "down the stairs" as though I was heading to the bar and then took the elevator up from the lower level.

Last time I was in BA was in March 2004 and Mayra made all the hotel arrangements for me. I haven't kept up with her and was wondering if anybody knows whether she still provides those travel services? If so, would appreciate a contact email or phone number.

Cheers,

WW

Booked me into the Regal Pacific for a week and I loved it. $140 a night with breakfast. Wifi in the rooms. This is brand new hotel with pillow top beds. Just a block away from Cafe Orleans, not that I found anything worth taking out. 18 to 75 minute walk to Cabana las Lilas.

Starfe[/QUOTE]$140 in Centro? Ouch. Was that a cash in advance price or a credit card price? How was the room, the breakfast, and the shower? Do they have a gym?

That's cash or credit price. The hotel is brand new. The rooms were spacious and the breakfast was much better then Lois Suites.The bathrooms were perfect, bidet which we girls just love. The bath towels were huge which you never find in the best U.S. hotels.

I had no problem with the location since its near Colmenga, where I spent every afternoon. There is a park near the hotel which I loved to roam around in the wee hours of the morning. I kept looking for a Dick Button moment.

That should help.

Starfe,

You sir, appear to be a very entertaining fellow, with a martini type sense of humor that I find lacking on the board. Good luck with that little button and keep 'em coming. I would like an advance copy of your memoirs.

This hotel is located on Maipu near the Marriott on 9xx.

It is great location wise. Breakfast is good. The rooms are average at best since the hotel has some age. Rates are around US$50.

Now for the mongering.

After dinner at Mirasol (which was excellent) my colleage jokes that one of his cousins is going come by my hotel room for a visit.

About an hour later, there is a knock on the door and Gimena steps in with one of the porters escorting her.

She was very busty and passionate. Not the best looker in the world but she was into having a good time.

One hour of around the world loving. All three holes and DP with a big vibrator in her puss while I filled her back door. She works out of Tucman VIP departamento.

See photos

A newbie to argpvt, I contacted Mayra regarding a hotel for $40-60. As I arrive 6 April she says Easter makes everything chockers and it ain't going to be easy.

My mistake, but cannot undo. I'm a USMC Vietnam Vet on a pension and just don't have big bucks. I want to stay at least one month, and can afford 1 grand mas o manos per month, and would love an apartment, but would settle for a reasonable hotel for the short term.

Can anyone point me to a hotel or apartment, or give me some clues? Should I consider staying outside of Buenos Aires. NFG this situation.

Oz,

Read through the apartment thread for more info, but I've had very good luck with ByT Argentina, and they have listings for most budgets. I stayed recently in a very nice apartment on Florida, that lists for $750 per month.

Chica Chaser

Phoned the soon to be opened Park Hyatt on Av. Alvear and was told they are opening on 28th June. Could be made into a special night for a rich monger wanting to impress his chica!

Does any body know if APART RECOLETA HOTEL is chicha friendly?

I have read some conflicting reports.

Netsik

I am having difficulty determining in which part of Buenos Aires to stay in most of my activity's will be monger related some tourism.

Thanks So far I see Recoleta, Congresso, Avenida de Mayo, Puerto Madero,

Business District, San Telmo, and Plaza de Mayo. Any tips on which part of town is better? Closets to airport? Does it matter Which part I stay in?

[QUOTE=Webcams]Does it matter Which part I stay in?[/QUOTE]No, it really doesn't.

David

Does anyone have any recent info regarding how chica-friendly the Dazzler Tritone is? I'm staying there for a few nights next week. ($93.39 including tax from Orbitz. Com)

Thanks.

Coming into town on Sunday. Currently sending emails to Roxanne to arrange some fun. I am assuming that they are Chica friendly? Also is ther ever any action at the bars in the hotels?

Thanks.

-Jake[/QUOTE]Be careful in assuming, many times these hotela make the rules as they go along, the employess have a hell of a time seeing outsider have a good time spending money in their country while they are at work.

This is mostly jealousy and envy by employees, they sometimes will give you a hard time and try to overcharge for bring up a guest.

Try to get a solid confrimation as to what the rules are. Argentines are notorious for making up stories, such as " el jerente dice que no se puede", Meaning the boss said this and the boss said that.

Good luck

AFAIK, BA hotels normally do not have working girls in the lobbies looking for clients.

Anybody know anything about these hotels? I will be staying at both in the coming weeks and would like to know if they are girl friendly. Thanks.

I'm coming to BA for 10 days in early February, and bringing my own company. Anyone want to take the time to recommend a hotel? I don't really want to spend over $100 per night, and especially appreciate a great lobby. Of course would like to be in a good and safe location - typical normal tourist stuff.

Recommend you get one of the apts for rent here on the forum.

Jackson, BM can help you out.

Tomamso is right rent a furnished apartment, you'll find something nice for that price. And you can buy extra maid service if you want.

Exon

Hotels are good for short stays, maybe 1-4 days. But for longer stays, fully furnished and serviced apartments are the way to go.

For $ 100 a day, you won't be able to find a nice, large hotel room in Buenos Aires. But for the same price you can get a fully furnished apartment in a modern building in a good neighborhood. Plus, you will have the added benefit of getting twice the space.

Legal Tender,

I would like to suggest that you also consider renting one of my apartments:

Jackson.

I like your idea of an Apartment.

Though I am staying for only 4 days it seems like a better place to hang out.

I am currently waiting for my schedule to firm up and then I can check availability. Right now it is available.

Thanks.

Hi,

I am a newbie here, I did not see Sofitel hotel on Arroyo in this thread here. So I guess I would write one. I chose this hotel because my company is paying my bill to have fun in Buenos Aires for 4 days and I am all about hotel points with Mecure hotel group.

Chica from Madahos came in with me. Of course, she had changed her clothes to jeans and was wearing a jacket right before exiting Madahos. We walked right past doorman and secret service type security guy with ear phone thing.

She then walked to the hotel reception and presented her national ID to the reception. Hotel made a copy of it and gave her ID back. I had to sign the registration paper. We then proceeded up to my room afterward. You need hotel card to access the elevator going up. But no need coming down. She just left the room by herself after we finished.

In a nutshell, I had no issue at Sofitel on Thursday night. Because chica changed to street clothes rather than wearing short mini-skirt with boob hanging out, I would think it made a whole lot difference on entrance to the hotel. Sofitel is definitely overpriced. If I was here on my own dime, I would totally go with apartment like in Ukraine (anyone knows Ukraine forums? And many people's recommendation here.
