I stayed one night, effectively in transit - arriving at 2000 and leaving at 1000, so this review is limited. Location is central and good. Reception was efficient and the room small, but adequate for one night only. The window looked out at a wall - not a problem and no street noise ! The bathroom was functional and the... More

I stayed at this hotel for a second time and found it clean but old looking. Couldn't open the window shutter, but there was nothing to look at anyway. The staff were friendly and I like it because it is near Calle Florida and restaurants.

The locaion is good. Its downtown next to a great shopping mall with a brilliant food court. The staff are helpful. Wifi cost ten american dollars a day! However the wifi connection is good. Breakfast is mediocre but very cheap. Our room was very small. The bathroom door did not close properly. The shower was tiny! I would describe the... More

Arrived here after traveling for 24 hours and really needing sleep. Greeted at reception by very unfriendly staff! Room was on the second floor and what a treat. The shower was disgusting, water goes everywhere! Base of stall would be maximum 1x1m. The drain was blocked by scum and when showering it would overflow after a couple of minutes with... More

Looks like a 5 star hotel at one point in history. They were working on the elevators, but that didn't affect me as I was on the 2nd floor and took the stairs. Staff was very accommodating. Breakfast was included. Stayed for 9 days. Could have used new carpet in the room. Bathroom was nice size. AC was a little... More

Located on a busy street half a block from Florida, the Carsson is in the thick of things. A long entrance hall leads to an elegant reception area complete with a magnificent chandelier, period fire place and huge fresh flower displays. There is a beautiful little courtyard (complete with ashtray for the smokers!) at the rear of reception. Charming old-fashioned... More

I also stayed here as part of a tour company package. There was a surcharge for Wi-Fi and breakfast was not included. McDonalds is around the corner with free Wi-Fi. A nice surprise was the small refrigerator, but there were no controls anywhere for heat or A/C. I've never seen such a tiny shower stall! As one person noted, it... More

I stayed here as part of a group-tour while in Buenos Aires. The hotel is central located, near the shopping neighborhood, which is a plus. I was placed in a room without airconditioning, and with 30 celcius outside, this was not really great. The room was rundown, maybe it was clean, but it didn't look like it. The bathroom was... More

It was cheap, but it was as well disgusting. Sheets dirty, receptionist unfriendly, dark, a window for nothing and cold. Bathroom was okay. Stay away from the elevator. The neighborhood is fine, good bars, good restaurant - even for vegetarians. That's absolutely exceptional.

After reading these reviews I was worried. We didn't choose the hotel but stayed here as part of a G Adventures tour. Perhaps there are some renovated rooms and some old rooms but the room we got was nicely appointed, fresh bedding, etc. The location is great, right near the Teatro Colon, and good for exploring the downtown area and...
