The professionalism of the front desk staff. The breakfasts were excellent as well as the staff that were on duty and the rooms were impeccable - cleaning staff really know what they are doing. |

Great design and a nice option for BA. Good to have a gay hotel in BA. Rooms a bit small, but well designed. Also, not many dining options nearby, so it'd be nice to have lunch served at the restaurant on Saturday. |

I liked my stay at the Axel Hotel in Buenos Aires due to the fact that the hotel was gay friendly and for my first time there it was close to all of the activities I did while staying in BA. We did a lot of walking in the city and the hotel was in a good location for the city walking that we did. I like the fact that the hotel did have wireless internet that was free, and free breakfast from the hours of 7am to 10am. I did not like the bathroom setup with the shower/tub in the middle of the room and I did not like the fact that loud music was played on one of the nights to very late in the morning. The restaurant was non existent, I thought there was going to be a full restaurant that we could walk down and have dinner. If the restaurant was a fully functioning restaurant we might have ate there, instead we went out for dinner every night of our stay. |

great helpful staff, swimming pool on the roof with great steam and dry saunas and jacuzzi. rooms are small and furniture are more design than useful. There is actually no bathroom just washing sink with no place for personal belongings like cosmetics. |

Great location, staff was helpful and very nice, overall hotel was very esthetically pleasing, great (up and coming neighborhood), centrally located, greatly appreciated that internet was included in the price of the room, good compromise on late check-out...pay 1/2 price of room for 1/2 day I stayed at the Barcelona Axel and very much liked the "free" bottled water which this hotel did not offer. Bar was very expensive versus local area. Walls were not sound proof- I would expect much more noise during high season |

The staff were very pleasant and did their best. The hotel design is interesting. The San Telmo neighbourhood is fascinating. This hotel is badly run. Firstly it was baking hot with heat pumping day and night into the common areas and bedrooms. Like Soviet era hotels customers can't control their own room temperatures. We'd to have our windows open even when it was raining.....Another problem we encountered was that the management decided to close off the common areas for two days for a photo shoot without warning or compensation. There was no bar, no seating area, and nowhere to meet friends except our small hot room. .....Finally it's worth mentioning that the hotel has placed its showers in glass boxes in the middle of each bed room. Great for exhibitionist lovers. Not so good if you're there with granny.... |

breakfast was good, bed was very comfortable, staff were very friendly and helpful. The design of the hotel was very nice. Would like to have been there for the pool in the summer. I stayed with a female friend, not a partner and the openess of the shower was a litlle inconvienent. It would be an idea to have a more private shower option to be more hetro friendly. |

Lovely hotel, great pool and Spa. Good wine list. Area a little dodgy at night. Food was not great and very overpriced....most expensive meal in Argentina but one of the worst. |

The staff is very polite and well informed. They can assure you quite anything you need. The design is impecable, I honestly never saw anything like that, to be admired. If I had to criticise anything, It would be the lack of minibars in the rooms and there could be more variety on the breakfast. |

The design of the hotel is fantastic and very modern. The rooms are not very spacious but have also a very modern design (the bathroom is super) and the beds are extremely comfortable. The staff is very friendly and always willing to help. The breakfast was a disappointment. The hotel is located in San Telmo which is an old neighborhood of Buenos Aires, near the centre, but it is a little be scary at nights. |
