2-Star Hotels in Buenos Aires

Nicely and conveniently located in neighborhood San Telmo with some small shops (one cute empanada shop that is worth trying!) in the street. The people at the reception are very friendly and helpful - if you need a local sim card for your stay you can ask them to help you fix it in 5 minutes. We were a bit less enthusiastic about the rooms - they are quite small (we couldn't fit our two suitcases, but if you're traveling with backpack it should be okay) and a bit outdated and the sheets/pillow smelled musty.. For the same price that we paid, we had a much nicer/cleaner stay in another hotel down the road. The vibe in the hostel was really good though, it seemed like a lot of guests knew each other, so it's a great place to meet people.

We got a low floor room facing inside, thus there was no view at all. You wouldn't want to open the window, which was opaque to ensure some privacy. Facing inside had an unexpected advantage, though, because you didn't get any noise from the pedestrian street out there, compared to the rooms facing outside. The room card didn't work, and the front desk re-programmed it twice. Even then you had to place the card for about 5 seconds before the door would unlock. Our room looked basic, but everything seemed to be there: wardrobe, safe deposit box, TV, small refrigerator, luggage rack, hair dryer, even reading lights above our beds. The location is, undoubtedly, very central and convenient with all kinds of shops and restaurants right there. In summary, if you want a basic bed/room on a budget, you are in the right place.

It's a great space. There's a supermarket right next door, making it conveniently located. The kitchen facilities downstairs were excellent, and the receptionists were incredibly friendly. For those looking to make friends through the accommodation's programs, this is a great place. I personally wouldn't recommend it.

i stayed in a room with private bathroom for only one night. the location of the hotel is very good, i can travel to most of the places on foot. bed is comfortable, room is big, nice and clean, the receptionist is extremely nice and helpful, wifi is strong also. however there is a lot of noise coming from the hotel guests and with all the smell of cigarette which make me difficult to sleep, but this is not the fault of the hotel, I hope the travelers can be more considerable. I didn't have chance to try the breakfast because my flight is in the early morning.

Amazing stay: Nothing to say about the cleanliness and infrastructure, about the dorms they can improve putting curtains to the individual bed to add some privacy and modernization to the overall quality. But in big terms, was a very good place to stay. Special thanks to ”Lu” and ”Enzo” for the amazing and warm guest service (EXCELLENT VOLUNTEERS)

Amazing apartment in a perfect location! It truly has everything you need for a comfortable stay — fully equipped, clean, and thoughtfully designed. You can tell a lot of care went into making sure guests feel at home. Highly recommend for anyone looking for convenience, comfort, and a great overall experience!

I was initially worried after reading some negative reviews, especially since I had a late check-in around 10pm. However, my experience turned out to be completely different. I contacted the staff via WhatsApp, and they were very responsive and helpful. The check-in process was smooth and completely hassle-free, which was a huge relief after a long day of travel. Considering the price and location in the city, I think it’s definitely worth it. The accommodation itself has a very creative and unique design, which adds to the overall experience. Overall, I had a pleasant stay and would highly recommend it 👍

I just stayed at Play Hostel and overall had a good experience, though there were a few quirks. The bathroom layout in my room was pretty bizarre, the shower was pretty much over the toilet, which meant it was cramped and water went everywhere. I barely fit in the shower space and water pressure was low, but thankfully the front desk staff gave me an extra towel to help with the water ( much appreciated!). The social events were a bit of a bummer some didn’t run on time or were cancelled/changed which ended up wasting a bit of my time. That said, the front desk guy was fantastic, super friendly and welcoming. The bed was comfy, but be aware that sound carries a lot in the hostel; the private room I had had a big gap under the door, so you can hear pretty much everything. On the plus side, the location is excellent, making it easy to get around in the Palermo area, and despite the quirks, I would definitely stay again. Thanks for a good stay!

Had a rough start with the first room (it was pretty basic and not great), but after moving to the upgraded one it’s amazing! Fireplace, beautiful wall fresco, balcony everything feels luxurious and relaxing. The smaller/cheaper rooms are decent too for the money, especially in this prime location. The shared kitchen is well-equipped and spotless everything you need for simple meals. Super convenient! Big shoutout to the reception team they’re excellent and very welcoming.
