Value for money
Clean and has everything you need from a hotel. In room fridge and coffee/tea facilities Continental self service breakfast. Very friendly staff on hand who are happy to help in anyway they can. Sadly there is no free shuttle service to/from airport as advertised. I emailed before arriving to confirm and did not get a reply. Reasonable price from airport taxi and plenty available. Use caution in the area after dark.

Excelente opción cerca de todo
Excelente opción para estar cerca de todo y llegar caminando a puntos de interés, como Obelisco, Casa Rosada, Puerto Madero, microcentro.
Muy buenas habitaciones, amplias y cómodas. Destaco la higiene impecable.
El personal de recepción amable.
El desayuno es básico pero rico todo. Deberían cambiar las tostadoras ya que no funcionan.
En los alrededores hay buenos lugares para comer y tomar algo.
A pocas cuadras de llegada de Buquebus, se puede ir caminando sin problema. Recomiendo y volvería.

The property is conveniently located.The hotel arranged for private transportation to the airport; invoiced through the hotel. The rate was in excess of a taxi fare to the destination.

It was very clean... just outdated a bit.. and one thing that I really didn’t like.. the mini bugs(cockroaches) coming from the bathroom ceiling. I killed 5 of them... then they stopped coming down... they realized that their brothers and sisters weren’t coming back... but overall, it’s nice for a 1 night stay. The reception staff are amazing 5 stars!

Excellent value property
This is an older style property but I found the room comfortable and quiet. Smart furnishings, though the bathroom was a little bit old.
Breakfast was "ok" and similar to other South American hotels.
The staff were efficient but not overly friendly. The location is excellent for the centre of town. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and it was excellent value for the price paid

Great location with BIG room for improvement.
Great location, friendly staff and really comfortable beds, however the hotel is in need of upgrade. The housekeeping need attention as well - the glasses- both in the bathroom and coffee corner were stained from previous guest ( toothpaste and lipstick marks! ), half used bar of soap left in the bathtub, the carpet was pretty stained as well. The poor cleaning standards spoiled one of the best sleeps in the Lafayette during our stay in BA.

Excellent location, but honestly it is more for Europeans than North Americans because of the shower. If you use a hand wand to shower you will be okay. They have bidets. They have Australian type electrical sockets, but a couple will also take European style. Easily walkable from the ferry.

Nice stay within budget. Clean and comfortable, some aged carpets in the hallway, but good choice for a stay in the city center.

Nice but Dated
I'm sure this was a very fine, upscale hotel in it's day. It is still quite nice but showing some wear in the bathrooms and carpets. It is also pretty close to shopping on Florida Street or at the Pacifico Mall. There is no dining room or room service during the weekend, or with very restricted hours. All in all, we didn't mind the stay at all and it is a good value but it is not a four star hotel any longer. As graceful as she is, the old girl is showing her age.

Dont go to this hotel and waste your money
Worse reception ever. We arrived at the front desk to checkin and the staff welcomes us with a very rude "Si" (why are you even here tone). None of the staff speaks english well. Communication was a big issue, bad breakfast, issues with A/C, slow internet, list goes on...never again to this hotel
