Buenos Aires Bed & Breakfast

Plussat: Nothing to said , Javi and santi was amazing, even their have 2 bike you can use anytime , thank you guys .

Miinukset: The stairs but not to bad z

Plussat: First day of arrival in BA, Santos and Javier greeted me. They welcomed me and answered all my questions. I felt right at home. Rooms were clean even with hand and shower towels and soap (these days hostels don’t provide them). Anything I needed, it was just a matter of asking. Javier gave me a bus card which made my discovery of BA more fun. Breakfast time was great to get to know other guests and I got to know amazing people. I wish I had stayed longer.

Miinukset: Javier and Santos were so welcoming that I will have to come back to Buenos Aires.

Plussat: I've never stayed in an exclusively-gay place before and didn't know what to expect, but right from the start, Santo and Javier were so friendly and welcoming that I got it pretty quickly: this little island of love and acceptance is one-of-a-kind and can be anything you want it to be. If you're here for a retreat from the world, the sun deck is a mini-paradise. If you like going out dancing till dawn and sleeping in till 2, the sunrise from the roof is magnificent. If life is especially hard for someone like you in the country you're from and you're on vacation to get wild and let loose, you can insert the blanks I probably can't publish on a family-friendly website... But suffice it to say, it's a haven, a social space, a respite, a meeting place--whatever you need it to be. To varying degrees and in myriad ways, our common ground is oppression and isolation. In the spirit of Stonewall and sexual revolution the world over, Lugar Gay celebrates what it means to be free and to live your life however the f*** you want: privately, gregariously, curiously, exhibitionistically, it's all good here. I can't guarantee you'll make friends--it'll always depend on the who and the when. But everyone, literally everyone, was friendly and happy to be there. I stayed for one week and have made lifelong connections with some very special people from across the world, young and old, travellers and porteños, quiet, weird, wild, wonderful, polyglots, polymaths, and beyond. Maybe I was lucky. But I don't think so. If what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, think about what would happen if you put a bunch of curious, adventurous, globetrotting gays together in the same space. The digs ain't four-star; you can do that at an overpriced hipster highrise in Palermo. They're comfortable, clean, well-kept, and lovingly-managed. This isn't a hotel. This is different. This is special.

Plussat: Santo and Javier were incredibly kind and accommodating. I had a few travel-related issues and they were quick to assist me. They’ve created a wonderful atmosphere for guests to relax together, share travel experiences and develop new friendships. They were also very patient with my limited Spanish and graciously communicated in English whenever I got stuck.

Miinukset: I think their hotel is well equipped - especially for the value they offer. If there was anything I needed, all I had to do was ask.

Plussat: Excellent service and great atmosphere

Plussat: Everybody from the hostel is very friendly and worried about your stay, give you directions for great places to eat, party around and out of the hostel area. Everything you need just ask that they’re going to help you with. Very great place.

Plussat: Great staff in this nice hostal in San Telmo. Great location on one of the main streets of the barrio.

Plussat: Very friendly and helpful staff who made me feel very welcome, and a very nice space and atmosphere to meet other travellers. Would stay again!

Plussat: Great staff, was a nice place near of museums, parks, fair and market, internet works well and the staff was thoughtful with all my needs. Cleanliness place and comfortable spaces and terrace.

Miinukset: Was a lot of noise from outside (street) for festivals and life in the city. Upstairs to come in difficult the inside of big things or persons with reduced mobility.

Plussat: Beautiful old building adjacent to and above La Cabrera restaurant in Palermo. We stayed in a room with 3 single beds. The room was small but very cozy and clean and had all that we needed- comfortable beds, bathroom, AC, and a little balcony. The owners and staff were incredibly hospitable and friendly. They provided light breakfast every day. They allowed us access to their kitchen to store any groceries we purchased etc. We were able to ask for recommendations at any time for sights to see, places to eat, etc. The neighborhood is eclectic, easily walkable, and beautiful. There was a little something for everyone. All in all , so glad we ended up staying here. It made our experience in Buenos Aires even more unique and memorable.

Plussat: The staff is excellent and friendly. Good, basic breakfast to start the morning. Air conditioner works fine and isn't noisy. Reliable Wi-Fi signal across the whole place. Everything is very clean and comfortable. It's an ideal place to stay in Palermo!

Miinukset: Almost nothing. There's a bit of noise coming from the streets, and the bathroom's paper basket could use a lid, but that's it.

Plussat: The staff were really friendly, arranged an airport taxi for us, and gave us suggestions for things to do in the city. The area is an excellent place to stay, with many restaurants and bars nearby and a safe environment for walking around.

Miinukset: There usually weren't staff around. We also had to pay in cash, which is less convenient.

Plussat: The Hostel is very central, perfect if you want to go out at night - there is a great bar and restaurant scene in Palermo and everything right in front of the door. The room is very good for few days city sightseeing, at night going out or You can even watch Netflix in the room! At night it is a bit noisy but only because of the bars and restaurants. The breakfast is coffee and croissants and bread with Marmelade and dulce de Leche, also nice. Over all very nice location for a few days

Miinukset: There was hair in the shower when I took my first shower. The bathroom smelled a bit bad but that also comes with the climate in general

Plussat: very nice location

Plussat: This location in Palermo was just awesome!! Possibly one of the most exciting & vibrant areas I have ever visited & I live on Bondi Beach!! Room was comfortable, shower was awesome & the staff (the family) were so welcoming!! The Internet was reliable & fast & the balcony cool to sit out on of an evening. HIGHLY recommend this place, we would go back stay again for sure!!!!

Miinukset: n/a

Plussat: The communication with Posada Gotan accommodation was great, fast and very helpful. Thibaud got in contact with me straight away and provided me with all the information I needed. I was able to arrange a late check in as my flight arrived late evening in Buenos Aires and Karolina received me with open arms and I felt very welcomed straight away. The breakfast in the morning was lovely, and Thibaud offered help with anything I needed as well as tips about getting around in Buenos Aires. My stay was only very short but if I come back to Buenos Aires I most definitely will come back to Posada Gotan and stay for a longer period. Small little home away from home, I loved it!

Plussat: The staff were nice enough, breakfast a standard Argentinian one, and the rooms were simple, but pleasant and clean. The Venezuelan lady serving breakfast and doing the night shift speaks a bit of English and is friendly. However this did not make up for the two major drawbacks - the area, and the mosquitoes.

Miinukset: The area felt completely void of anything you seek out as a traveller, hardly any (even basic) shops or restaurants. I felt the place was explained as a pleasant neighbourhood with local places to eat etc, but it felt quite unsafe, deserted at night and even in daytime there were very few people moving about, which is not a good thing in BA. As an example the only visible business on the same block is a car mechanic shop. Not a single restaurants so you end up spending a lot of time in Ubers or taxis going to and from San Telmo/Recoleta or similar for eating and anything to do really. We were also hoping for a bit more of an atmospheric Posada than it was. The table and chairs that you see in the pictures in the courtyard is not there, there were a few slightly drab chairs and tables inside, but it didn't feel inviting to be spending any more time than we had to there. The other major drawback was the mosquitoes. We stayed in the quadruple room with our two children and despite mosquito spray, the plug in repellent that was provided by the hostel, and us killing mosquitoes before going to bed, our children were completely eaten in the morning, I'm talking dozens of bites. No AC remote was given upon checkin and when asked we had to wait for hours for it. They have a significant mosquito problem here, mosquitoes that seem to come in through the bathroom ventilation and with high ceilings were impossible to get to. When we checked in there were plenty of smashed mozzies over every wall so it was evident this has been a problems to previous guests. It had rained a fair bit before arriving, but with an infestation efter rain there should be nets above the beds, or proper fumigation. As a result we decided to leave one day early and find another place to stay. We did actually ask if we could have the last night refunded due to the situation, but the owner replied that he was unable to grant a refund.

Plussat: The building is stunning!

Plussat: Very friendly staff... he walked us all the way to the bank and restaurants to make sure we got what we needed as we arrived late! Very lovely rooms as well, charming and unique!

Plussat: This small hotel is run by the descendants of the people who built the original home. It is a welcoming oasis of calm in an otherwise busy and vibrant city and is proof that brass, glass and marble are not what makes any hotel great. What is more important is personal care and attention and the wonderful people of Posada Gotan have this in abundance. I was welcomed as a guest, and farewelled as a friend.

Plussat: The courtyard was lovely and cool in the afternoon. Our bedroom was tastefully decorated and simple, and the service received at reception was fantastic. We only stayed one night before flying back to England - would love to have stayed longer.

Miinukset: Mosquitos, but that’s no the property’s fault!

Plussat: Interesting, slightly quirky place to stay. Comfortable bedroom.

Miinukset: Thought that everywhere could do with a coat of paint!

Plussat: the location and the service of the personal

Miinukset: the toilet is like a factory toilet and the aesthetic is not the same as you can see in pictures.

Plussat: Helpful staff.

Miinukset: Room was in basement and quite noisy with windows onto the street.

Plussat: The location was awesome.

Miinukset: The rooms were a bit shady and not as it looked on the photos online but the area was perfect to explore Buenos Aires.
