Grand King Hotel

Although majestically placed in the heart of the Microcentro, or perhaps relying on this sole fact, the staff was one of the rudest and less helpful I've seen in a hotel in this price range in Latin America. They refused to speak any other language other than Spanish, and when requested to speak slowly so we could listen through the porteño accent, they didn't. When asked about their room service, the answer was a dry "scan the QR code". When asked about what would be open (it was Christmas), they told us to ask around the street. Luckily, the people on the streets were far more warm and helped us get around the city better. The rooms were good and appropriately clean.

A fascinating stay. This is perfectly central to restaurants and things to do. It was frustrating to be woken daily by "Cambio, cambio!" being yelled all day every day. There are a large number of restaurants around you to go to. If you need power points, good luck. To charge my CPAP machine, the staff had to wrench the bed headboard off the wall. (second of second booking room) The other powerpoint we used were difficult to access, under the desk. One weird thing is that the rooms don't have smoke detectors and when I asked for one, I was ask what had happened to be wanting one. I didn't tell them about the power point supporting the CPAP machine making sizzling noises. (first room). We had to change rooms half way through the trip as we had made 2 bookings and couldn't stay in the same room. Our second room started in one room with no air-conditioning and we moved rooms the next day (first room of the second booking) So yes, over 10 days we stayed in 3 rooms. The staff are really lovely and very helpful. The beds are comfy, breakfast OK. All the windows open up fully so beware if staying with small children. The only English TV station we could find was cage fighting.

Great location to all sights in Buenos Aires. Hotel staff very nice to deal with. For the price this hotel ticks all the boxes.

Excellent Location in area reserved for pedestrians only. Near bus and metro station. Very good value. Would recommend to friends.

An excellent location close to Av Florida in the centre of town and walking distance to the Buquebus Ferry Terminal for a trip to Uruguay. The bed and room is very comfortable and breakfast is good. The staff were all courteous and friendly. We stayed here for 2 nights then a week in Uruguay before returning for 2 more nights. We left some of our luggage here for a week with no charge. On our second visit our room fronted the street which gave a view of the street performance on the intersection of Lavalle & Florida. We would certainly stay at this very reasonably priced hotel again.

Way too shabby for the price tag. Very clean, but facilities in poor condition: bathroom (sliding) door did not close properly and was difficult to slide, faucet was loose, corridor carpets old and dirty, lift doors did no stop on resistance (by a person entering). Confusing that snacks were no clearly marked as NOT a courtesy (then being not in the fridge, but net to TV). Desk personnel did not apologize for this upon checkout. Only redemption was the breakfast personnel. Very polite and efficient. Also: apparently due to city regulations, an awful lot of personal information has to be provided upon checkin (marital status, work address and the like). Shady.
