Trianon Residence Recoleta  

The flat is very comfortable, big rooms and closet. The location is excellent: you have the Alvear Hotel at the back, supermarket on the corner, every kind of restaurants nearby. Taxis are cheap and we can go anywhere from there.

It's a very old building, as the neighborhood, and we need to take it into consideration. The apartments need a new painting, and it'd be just perfect. Bathrooms were very clean, more than the rest of the flat.

We had two rooms for a group of 4 that were across from each other that made it very convenient. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The location is convenient and the staff generally very accomodating.

There was a mix up on our rooms on the last half of the week and they at first were unable to accomodate us on the same floor across from each other. After a lot of discussion we were able to "upgrade" to a superior room for another $20. It all worked out.

Position was ideal as the locality was up market. However traffic noise was a problem as our unit did front on to the road. There were metal shutters on the outside which helped buffer some of the noise. Continental breakfast was quite good. Air conditioning was most welcome too. Unit was very spacious- we had a 2 bedroom unit and it had 2 bathrooms which is ideal when there are more than 2 people. Dressing room area was appreciated too. In all it served our needs very well. Price was very reasonable for the space we had. We would recommend to future travellers.

Traffic noise and in the 2nd bedroom, the airconditioning unit rattled.

This used to be an apartment building so the space available is so useful Can have daytime or dinner guests for tea etc. Rooms over the back ( garden) quieter. I would say no upgrades to halls or room furniture for over 10 years so verging on shabby. Too bad, as it is a great spot for family ( enough space, short or long stay ( cook for yourself or go out) but in bad weather or bad circumstances, could be depressing.

Needs to be upgraded in decor.

Excellent central location for city access. Polished, comfortable, well- maintained facility. But English-speakers with limited Spanish will have to hope that the most excellent 'Cinthia' is available at the front desk - others were nice and tried to be helpful, but we'd have to fall back on our tentative Spanish to communicate. (No big deal for us - still will make it our Buenos Aires hotel in the future.)

The location was really great: just 3 blocks from the Recoleta cemetary, just steps from the famous Alvear st., With all its luxurious buildings, fair walking distance from Av. 9 de Julio and the Obelisque.

The apartments could use some renovations, specialy with regards to the windows. The windows are really old, they don´t shut well (I.E. you can hear the noise from the street), and in some cases the windows were really rusty (mainly in the shower). We had to wait too long for breakfast (which is served to your appartment). Even when we ordered our breakfast the night before, asking to have it at 9:30 since we check out afterwards, we only got it at 10am. When we ordered it in the morning, it sometimes took them about an hour or so to deliver it to our room, unless we´re ok with having only the coffee and fruit salad, since they were lack of dishes...

Very spacious and clean accomodations and helpful staff. We were a family of 6 and it is rare to find accomodation such as this at a fairly resonable rate.

Not really a complaint but internet service was spotty at best even with the modem they supplied us for use in the room.

So surprised to have the penthouse suite for our family. Very nice and unexpected!

booked a triple room and were surprised to get a 3 bedroom apartment so very spacious with old world elegance. it was very clean. breakfast served to room was adequate although small. it was varied by cake one day but usually croissants, small juice, coffee, hard french stick slices, butter, jam, cheese spread and chocolate spread. request breakfast up to half an hour before you want it. liked the laundry sink and lines. the 2 bathrooms were large. staff were polite. large kitchen with good facilities.

we were on the first floor at front so close to the traffic. quite noisy at night with rubbish trucks going through and people yelling in the street. that of course has nothing to do with the quality of the hotel. virtually nobody on the hotel staff spoke more than a few words of english so it was a little hard to make yourself understood and it was hard to get any local or tourist information (but then we were in a spanish speaking country). free internet in the lobby was quite slow but at least available.

Very spacious apartment. It is clean and is in good location.

Front desk has only one person who speaks English, Cynthia, but she is not reliable. I asked to change sheets twice. Both times she said yes but they were not changed. Only at the third time when I got upset, I got it changed. I asked breakfast at 11 am the day after we went to tango show, but it was brought at 8. Our sleep was broken. Then at 8:45 and 9:15 there was telephone call and at 10 someone came at our door. Every time our sleep was disturbed. I asked taxi to the airport for Friday but they thought it was for Wednesday. Our sleep was disturbed so many times. The front desk needs improvement in communications and reliability.

The apartments are just great. Space everywhere, lot of confort. Excellent location in Recoleta. Friendly and efficient staff.

Some apartments and rooms can be a little noisy (av. Callao is quite busy). But despite that I recomment Trianon without hesitation.

Two bedroom apartment was well appointed and spacious. Entire hotel operates at a high standard, though not pretentious. Front desk very helpful; not all speak English, but someone who can is at hand. Modern multi-story building, elevator. Located just a few blocks (5-8 minutes walk) from major downtown 'restaurant row'.

Listing promised free wifi, but it wasn't actually available, at least in the apartments on 10th and 11th floors. On our first stay, front desk mentioned 'modem' but didn't make it clear that it was our answer. Second time a more in-tune young lady explained that 'modem' actually provided a RJ45 connection to the internet. The box was in fact one of those that use the power line to communicate with a 'server' and provided ~45kB/sec (~450 bps) downloads. Not blazing, but quite usable. Note that they rent the box for 30 pesos, around USD8.
