The hotel is in the upscale Recoleta neighborhood, close to the cemetery and high end shops. It has a grand old-world vibe to it...feels a bit like stepping back in time. I had room 638 which did not face the street. The large room was in three sections, an office space, living room and bedroom. Even though there was just one window the overhead chandeliers were bright. The bed linens were embossed and newish...as were the towels. There weren't as many power outlets as is typical in a more modern hotel and some of the light fixtures were crooked or damaged. And the pillows were feathered but it would have been nice to have a menu to change if I wanted foam or hypoallergenic. The bathroom was large with a standalone shower, tub, toilet and bidet. There is a grate under the sink where you can hear the water from the sink and shower drain into...startled me at first as I thought the room was flooding. It wasn't, but that is something we dont have in American bathrooms. The shower pressure was glorious but the shower head was unfocused so water went everywhere. I asked them to have maintenance take a look and when I got back to my room I had a new shower head that worked perfectly. The breakfast buffet was not extensive but the food was hot and tasty. They had fresh toast, scrambled eggs, bacon/sausage, vegetables, cold cuts, fruit and an assortment of breads/pastries. Omlettes cost extra and were made to order. The service at Alvear was impeccable...which I note as I am Black American and was traveling solo. Every single staff member went out of their way to greet me and assist. Front Desk staff were excellent and spoke fluent English. Every single ask I made was promptly and accurately handled. Asked for 7:30 luggage pickup...bellhop knocked on my door exactly at 7:30. Asked to break a $100 bill, I came downstairs to find they had precounted and set aside $100 in small bills. They arranged airport pickup and transport to a tango show. Even got my laundry done. Top notch service. If you are looking for a hip hotel, Alvear Palace is not for you. But if you like grand historic lodging...book at Alvear. I would definitely stay here again.Show More

The breakfast is an enjoyable experience in a beautiful location, the rooms are very comfortable and the gym/pool area are very nice (albeit one is on the gound and the other is on the top so a little annoying if you want to do both). The location is great. However, the place is extremely expensive (over €800 per night) and, frankly, I did not feel it was worth it and I felt let down for this price in certain respects. Firstly, it amazes me for such an expensive spot that more complimentary aspects are not thrown in (relative to other hotels we stayed). If anything, there are extra charges such as tips and we were dissapointed that a champagne for our engagement was not complimentary (it was in other hotels). In addition, works on the water in our room meant the water was off during periods of the night. This is not really acceptable for the price. I also felt the rooms could do with a few more facilities and services for the price range but it was spacious and comfortable. Overall it is a beautiful historic place but I would suggest going to a cheaper more modern 5 star nearby and calling in here for drinks or food if you wish (as the best parts are the public areas anyway).Show More

However, compared to other similarly priced hotels that we stayed in, the hotel fell extremely short of what should be expected of a hotel of this category. Not only was the service heartless and slow, there were also clear issues with basics for a 5-star hotel. First, there is no kettle or coffee machine in the room. We requested a kettle and tea bags to be brought to the room only to be surprised by a charge for room service the following day. This was added to our bill without any signature. Furthermore, the breakfast is questionable. The only eggs included in the breakfast buffet are stale and taste strange. Any additional items such as poached eggs or omelettes are charged at additional cost. I have not encountered this in any other hotels on our 14-day trip in Argentina. These are just examples and I would heartedly discourage anyone from spending their money here when there are much better hotels just around the corner.Show More

It’s world class, one of the best hotels anywhere. We stayed there for five weeks, and it was our fifth stay. The rooms and related physical facilities are really nice. Clean, elegant and comfortable. Every single person who works there strives to make your stay the best ever, anywhere. The concierge people (Claudio, Esperanza, Sebastian and Julien) are world class. The room service and hospitality people are really special (thanks Laura and Maria). Great restaurant, too (Alvear Grill). We will write a separate review about that. And the location can’t be beat. Everything seems so easily within close reach staying there in the center of Recoleta. It’s one of our favorite hotels anywhere.Show More
