L'Adresse Hotel Boutique

I'm a huge fan of anything that has personality, and this place has it in spades. Fantastic service by the staff, a great breakfast, and overall a place I just really enjoyed spending a couple of days in. Perfect for walking around to get the flavor of the area, plenty of attractions and great little bars and restaurants to relax in too.

This charming hotel is located in the old colonial part of the city it is within walking distance of lots of amazing restaurants and cafés and shops. The neighborhood has amazing buildings and churches with huge doors tall ceilings. The hotel rooms offers a nice breakfast, games and travel and other books you can borrow. The room itself was small but adequate with shelving a TV and a nice hot shower. The best part of our stay was the amazing staff that worked there. They were so helpful and accommodating. A special shout out goes to Clara, Rocio snd Lucas for the excellent service making sure that our experience was excellent. They even gave us the name of an exchange place that gave us a lot more money for our dollar than other places. if you are not in good physical shape, ask for a room on the ground floor. There were a lot of steps to go to the second floor with our heavy suitcases. That was the only downside. There is also a little supermarket right across the street which is convenient. We enjoyed our stay here recommend this hotel!

Get ground floor room if you don’t like stairs. Bring lots of $100 bills. $50, $20, $10 get less. Argentina has a complicated and convoluted exchange rate system: Here is an illustration per 1 US$ Blue rate 900 Visa credit card 800 Official money exchangers 750-780 Master Card 350, then refund 450 a few days later Amex 350 Official government rate 350 ATM (any foreign credit debit) Exchange them every couple days or so, usually at restaurants or some shops. Best is a shop on Florida Street 860, local 113. Lots of touts on Florida Street too if you want to deal with them. Don’t pay hotel bills in US dollars. It is calculated on the official rate. Pay in peso in cash. Problem with Western Union is you have to find them, and they are not 24x7.

We had high hopes for this place. Cool name, trendy revitalized neighborhood, and beautiful pictures on the web. What a disappointment. Instead of quirky and vintage it is run down and poorly kept. Cheap mid-century furniture from someone's grandmother's attic with veneer chipping off the corners and edges. One small folding luggage stand. When I tried to move the desk over a little for another suitcase I found out the top wasn't even connected to the base. The very charming old door to the room had holes straight through it to the outside from old locks, knobs, etc. Even locked a good shove with a shoulder could break through. Safe was barely attached to the cheap armoire. The only saving grace is an excellent staff. All were friendly, helpful, and efficient. Especially Lucas. He did everything he could to make our stay better. Thanks Lucas!

The staff was as friendly as can be with limited facilities. The property has "character", but unfortunately was very dirty and in disrepair. The room we had shook as large trucks barreled down the road. The bathroom was very dirty and the faucet had a constant, noisy drip. Hair in bathroom, stained sheets, dirty room; all things not expected from a 4-star hotel.

Wonderful Hotel in the heart of San Telmo! Supermarket crossed Street and many breakfast, lunch & dinner options around! We will be back!

L'Adresse is in the heart of the hip and recovering San Telmo neighborhood, and indeed seems to embody its virtues: understated, unpretentious, and even inconspicuous. Its youthful staff tend the breakfast service even as they keep their eye on the reception desk in the first couple hours of the morning. I had arrived past 1 in the morning, and was grateful that the staffer that night was not only awake when I arrived, but insistent on carrying my suitcase up to the room -- it was up two long flights of stairs. The room was adequate to my needs, with a comfortable bed, hot water in the shower, and WiFi throughout. The morning staffer steered me to a casa de cambio where I could exchange my (cash) dollars for pesos at a rate of 675 to the dollar. (I later passed others in the same neighborhood that offered as much as 700.) During Argentina's current economic crunch, the visitor does well not to take the 10% discount on a prepaid booking, which is calculated at the "official" rate of exchange (350 pesos=1US$); rather, book the reservation to pay the full amount, in pesos, when the visitor checks out -- and convert your dollars to pesos once you're in town. The L'adresse's most distinctive asset is its location in San Telmo, where B.A.'s youthful energy is. It's a short walk from Plaza Dorrego, the informal "heart" of the district, and for that matter is a perfectly walkable distance from Plaza de Mayo and the city's historic center. If you're not desperate for luxuries, and like walking up stairs, it's a great find.

The staff was very knowledgeable, professional and helpful.

This is a great small hotel in San Telmo that is surrounded by excellent places to eat and shopping. The area was safe to walk around at any hour and the building secure. My room was clean, the bed comfortable, and I had no issues at all with my stay. Should I return to BA, I will happily stay here again.
