Moreno Hotel Buenos Aires

Siamo venuti qui dopo aver ottenuto un buon affare su Expedia. Stavamo discutendo tra questo luogo e un posto più economico, ma questo ha vinto perché sembrava pieno di carattere e aveva una vasca idromassaggio panoramica. Infatti, è stato pieno di carattere - chicly progettato, un ascensore d'epoca, ampie e confortevoli camere. Oltre a questo, il personale era cordiale e disponibile ad ogni turno. Abbiamo lasciato lieti che ci siamo stati, ma con due denunce: una, la vasca idromassaggio sul tetto era vuoto. Avrebbero riempirlo per voi, ma solo tra 8 e 5 - in realtà non le ore che si desidera utilizzare. L'ultimo giorno abbiamo avuto li riempiono di esso, ed era a malapena tiepida (e non molto pieno!). Questo è stato davvero un problema da dimenticare, ma la nostra seconda censura ci ha disturbato di più. Dovevamo incontrare un amico in città e chiesto quando siamo arrivati ​​se potessimo effettuare chiamate senza spese dalla stanza; la receptionist ha detto sì. Quattro giorni più tardi, come abbiamo controllato, siamo rimasti sorpresi di trovare quasi $ 40 dollari in costi di chiamata telefonica sul nostro conto! Ci era stato addebitato $ 1.70 USD al minuto per le nostre chiamate. Hanno spiegato che erano scusate ma che ovviamente c'era un costo per chiamare fuori dalla stanza, e che c'era una carta da parte del telefono in camera spiegando che, e che dobbiamo avere capito male la receptionist. Siamo rimasti scioccati, ed erano di scusa, ma mi hanno detto che non potevano cambiare la carica. E 'stata una grande delusione perché altrimenti la nostra esperienza in questo hotel era eccezionale.

I absolutely loved this hotel. Originally built as a book factory in the 1920s, it’s kept some of its history’s caché, as evidenced by the black and white image of factory women at work behind the lobby’s main desk. The Art Deco style lends it an elegant and edgy appeal. The rooms are incredibly spacious and beautifully decorated. And on top of that, the staff is fantastic. When I first walked in, the young receptionist was playing with her little brother (he couldn’t have been more than 5), so both gave me a tour of the place, a sweet touch that made the place all the more endearing to me. There is no restaurant, but you can order food from Aldo’s next door, a gourmet restaurant with a great reputation in the neighborhood.

When you enter Moreno Hotel has a lot of character, and though it looks a bit dark as soon as you enter, it's really pleasant and comfortable. The artsy chandelier in the lobby/reception area definitely caught my attention, and the stained glass windows are a nice touch. The hotel exudes calm and everything about it is big and feels spacious. My favorite thing was the terrace, which has amazing panoramic views of Buenos Aires and comfortable chairs and sofas you can use to enjoy the view.

I loved the way velvet dominated the furnishings. There were large prints of famous artworks on the walls and over-sized items of furniture placed at reception. Everything was so eye-catching that I had to try out the sofas immediately (they were like something out of Tim Burton’s version of Alice in Wonderland) and get up close with the artwork hanging on the walls. The room was so big! There was so much space. I couldn’t get my head around just how much space there was, particularly for the price they were charging. I really loved the old-style, iron-gated lift too - an original feature, without an doubt. There were beautiful stained-glass windows which the receptionist (who was wonderfully friendly) told me were also original features of the building. I was more than happy with the bundles of character, but the huge roof terrace was the cherry on the cake.
