Hostel Tango is a good affordable hostel in a great location with lovely staff. The building is beautiful with the rooms leading off a courtyard and passage to the kitchen. It is clean and simple with a large kitchen. I would definitely come back again.

We stayed here for 8 days in room 6 which is next to reception and a little courtyard. You can see from my photos how close we were. There are actually two rooms in reception to avoid. Our room was one with en-suite and It was a little cramped in the bathroom. Some of the other rooms with en-suite looked... More

Stayed here for 2 nights. We booked rooms with bathroom. Rooms were too small. Furniture is very simple: 1 duplex bed (we booked twin) and wardrobe. Plug-sockets were in really bad conditions: we can't charge anything because plugs fell down from plug-sockets. It was really cold in rooms: we were there in winter. Breakfast was more than simlpe: 2 small... More

Where did they take the picture for TripAdvisor? Rooms are far from being like that. Mine was small, no hangers, bedside lamp did not work, noisy surrounding, small towels, hot and humid, old carpet floor. There must be something better for the same price. However people at the front desk were very nice, as usually is the crowd of backpackers.

Behind the large wooden doors at street level hides a haven away from the busy streets of San Telmo. We were a little apprehensive on arriving in Buenos Aires having heard numerous stories of theft and attacks , so when we arrives at Hostel Tango to be meet by such friendly staff was a pleasant surprise. Our taxi ride from... More

We spend a couple of nights here, in the 8-bed dorm as well as in a private double. Both were good, with comfortable beds, lockers, adequate lighting and ceiling fans. They clean the rooms daily and make up your bed with clean linnen. The bathrooms were a bit dirty from time to time, because the guests would make a mess... More

We stayed here in Feb 2012. This was one of the best hostels we stayed at during our trip to SA. The hostel is an old mansion with really cool architecture and a great layout.
