Lock in a great price for America Del Sur Hostel Buenos Aires – rated 8.7 by recent guests!

to get started.

The building is nice, rooms with showers and toilets, plugs and light next to your bed, hair drier, lockers, WiFi so so, elevator, nice common areas, you can storage your bags after checkout, nice patio. Staff is ok. You have to pay for breakfast(150 pesos... easily you can have good breakfast somewhere else with that money or make your own meal) so at the end it will be a 500 pesos stay aprox.

Breakfast bar was worth it (150pesos) eggs, toast, coffee/tea, water/juice, fruit, cake. Great mix of travelers, good socializing without being a "party hostel". Staff is all fantastic.

The dorm rooms are just $8.50 a night for a four bed dorm with en suite bathroom and shower! On the basement floor there is a beautiful tv room, study area with two computers, library, and additional bathroom and shower. On the chalkboard are suggested activities, many of which the hostel will organize for you. The whole thing feels modern and well designed, from the very spacious lockers to the personal lights and universal outlet at the head of my bunk bed. The cleaning service even makes your bed every day, making my dorm room feel more like a hotel room I share with three other people. This is a city hostel, complete with 5 floors and fast-moving elevators. The ground floor is almost entirely communal space, so there are great opportunities for solo travelers to make friends! Thrifty backpackers can stash eggs and cereal in the hostel kitchen (which is nothing special but it gets the job done). I highly recommend this hostel to all backpackers.

One of the best facilities I have ever had! Very comfortable 4-bed rooms with own enclosed bathrooms(!), big comfortable beds with own charger. Big looker for your personal belongings. Very clean as they clean the rooms every day! Very good located within the San Telmo quarter which has a really cool vibe. Supermarket, cafes, restaurants (...) and San Telmo market nearby and also the other quarters are in walking distance. Big common are are to chill out and many offers to get to know other travelers. Nice and helpful staff :)

This modern hostel offers guest rooms and dormitory rooms with shared or private bathrooms and free Wi-Fi. It is in the San Telmo neighborhood in Buenos Aires.

Cobbled streets, historic houses and street tango performances influence the atmosphere of San Telmo. Guests from America Del Sur can take dance classes or visit the famous Colon Theater, Obelisk or the Puerto Madero port which are all a 5 minute drive away.

A continental breakfast is served at the inner patio of America Del Sur Buenos Aires. There is a communal kitchen which includes a microwave, oven and refrigerator to cook meals. Alternatively restaurants and bars are within easy reach.

The hostel is a 45 minute drive from Ezeiza International Airport. America Del Sur can arrange a shuttle service upon request.

San Telmo is a great choice for travelers interested in tango, history and nightlife.

This is our guests' favorite part of Buenos Aires, according to independent reviews.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.8 for a two-person trip.

Nothing
Everything! Lovely staff, particularly Nicolas. Really friendly and helpful. Great way to meet other travellers but privacy if you want it. Good social events without being an over the top party place. Nice range of age groups staying with different interests for socialising, ie Friday night some had BBQ followed by nightclub while others went to opera house. Previous hostel stayed in was terrible and I felt I had made bad decision to backpacker as too old for it now (52) and actually considered going home early, after 5 minutes here completely changed my view and having a lovely time. Extended my stay here for a few extra nights. Really good breakfast for $200

It’s in a great location, it’s clean, modern and very comfortable. The walking tours with Nicholas from the hostel were excellent. It was nicely social but not a party hostel. Loved the stay and would recommend to anyone.

Details of additional activities offered were sent on booking but an email sent with enquiries wasn't responded to so I had to wait til I got there to sort plans.
Welcoming and friendly hostel. The double room I had was clean, well laid out and the facilities reflected what was listed. Breakfast was good and worth the additional cost but didn't change at all. The location was good and within walking distance of most of the main areas of the city.

“Rooms can be hot as hell!!! Beyond tolerable.”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 1 night

I had big expectations since I stayed in the same hostel in Calafate.( fell in love with that one, and thought this was was gonna be the same but no) Rooms are hot as hell, even tho there’s windows and ac seems in this hostel ppl love 30 degrees temperature inside the rooms and no air flow, staff at night are a bit slow, key cards work sometimes, showers are very small, area looks sketchy at nights. When I got to my designated bed was undone, guest in my room were rude, (room was a mess with all their bags they set the ac into heater and it was super hot) and had to ask for another room. They set the ac into heather and close the windows I ask the guy at front desk to do something and he told me... guests have to end in an agreement... thing is when you end up with a bunch rude ppl it’s impossible. My suggestion to the hostel would be to the set the rooms into standard temperature so there’s no confrontations between guests..you know...like hostels usually do. I could have stay in the hostel longer but temperature was beyond tolerable. So I guess final impression of this hostel will depend on how lucky you are ending up with nice ppl in you room.
The building is nice, rooms with showers and toilets, plugs and light next to your bed, hair drier, lockers, WiFi so so, elevator, nice common areas, you can storage your bags after checkout, nice patio. Staff is ok. You have to pay for breakfast(150 pesos... easily you can have good breakfast somewhere else with that money or make your own meal) so at the end it will be a 500 pesos stay aprox.

everything The staff treated badly with foreigners. Especially the girl in the reception. The place is uncomfortable, nuisance and smell of eating at all please. They do not change the bed cover even if a new guest comes and it is a big disaster It's not fun to be in a place like this. And the price is exaggerated compared to others. I will certainly not go back to him again
Nothing but the location, because in the city center you can walk a few kilometers to La boca or to Florida and others
