This is a no frills hotel with lots of old world charm at an amazing location, which was perfect for my first time in Buenos Aires. What I loved the most was that the subway was right there in front of me as soon as I stepped out of the hotel. The area is totally walkable with tons of restaurants, shopping, and grocery store nearby. What I liked the least was the fact that the hotel had no iron or ironing board. I had to buy one. Overall my experience at Hotel Fresque was exceptional for my first time in Argentina.

The hotel was clean. The loft area might not be ideal for anyone with mobility issues. I thought I reserved a room with sitting area thinking there would be a love seat or something but just had a small wooden chair. I asked staff and they said all the rooms were like that. I’m not sure what I paid extra for. The hotel felt safe as well.

I have mixed feelings about this property. The room was very clean, and the sheets were changed daily, so I had no concerns in that regard. The location was good, in a very safe neighborhood. If I were to go to Buenos Aires again, I would probably look for a hotel a little closer to Recoleta or Palmero, as those were my favorite neighborhoods.
Cleanliness and location would both merit five stars, in my estimation.
However, check-in was confusing. I had checked into my room online before arriving. When I got there, however, that didn't seem to matter. The staff really wanted me to check in with WhatsApp, which I don't use and didn't have on my phone. The staff spoke no English, and my Spanish isn't as good as it could be, adding to the difficulties. They eventually gave up and let me get into my room anyway.
When I got to my room, the air conditioner was off. I contacted the staff, and was told that I needed to turn it on with WhatsApp. They eventually turned it on for me. Once on, it continually dripped onto the nightstand. It wasn't too bad, so I just put a hand towel on the nightstand to muffle the dripping sound.
The air conditioner quit working at one point, and was off for almost a whole day. I don't really know why it quit working, but I was certainly glad when it started again.
In conclusion, if you've got WhatsApp, you should have a much better time working with the staff.

The location is excellent. Many restaurants and sights are in walking distance. There is a metro stop at the front door.

The downside is the 2 storey room. The bed is in a loft area, and we did not care for that.

I liked this hotel a lot. I do suggest being careful to choose a room that does not have the loft.

This heritage property was in good repair but very basic. With a little extra attention it could be a very nice accommodation. It is in a very central location, with only a bit of city noise. Based on our research, we anticipated the staff being more fluent in English but this was not the case. The staff were very pleasant but not as helpful as other reviewers experienced. We were unable to get an extra pillow and not permitted to bring food to our room. We wanted to stay somewhere with a bit of character and Le Fresque certainly fit the bill.

The hotel was quite cute, in a very old style, but was not run down. The lifts had doors you need to manually close, which was pretty cool, although if someone forgets to close the doors when they leave, the lift will not operate until someone closes them, which could mean climbing 4 flights of stairs to your room.
The location is superb, next to a 24-hour Carrefour and the subway station, so it was quite convenient when travelling by subway. There is also a vehicle stop area right outside the hotel, which makes it super convenient to wait for Ubers.
The room was decently clean, and it had aircon, which was a god-sent in the BsAs heat. There is not much by way of amenities, but it was comfortable enough.
The staff were really unfriendly though, and didn't smile much and were not very helpful. The front door is always kept locked and you need to catch the attention of the receptionist to open the door, but they're not always at the front desk, so you may have to wait and knock on the door for a while before the receptionist appears. That wasn't great when we were rushing back to grab our bags to go to the airport..

Excellent choice as a base for exploring Buenos Aires. Close to everything ... hop on hop off bus stops, tango dinner show, San Telmo market, Buquebus if planning to visit Uruguay. The room we stayed in was next to the main road, we can hear sirens, etc., but didn't bother us at all. We still got a restful sleep. Might not be suitable for everyone. However, our stay was trouble-free and staff were all helpful and kind. Happy to stay here again.

This property is frighteningly dangerous. Stay there at your own risk. It is very old. All the windows except 1 in my room was bricked off. Most rooms have 2 levels with stairs waxed slicker that a luge. The bathroom is downstairs. I knew the stairs were going to be a problem because I slipped and caught my balance several times until the last day where one foot flew out forward and the other went behind me and i fell down the entire staircase. Obviously, that injury put a serious damper on the rest of my trip. I had to buy a cane and foor brace. The front desk girl was very nice but clueless as to how to help. Definitely not a place for older people. More of a hostel than a hotel. The bathroom is beyond tiny. They have no iron in the entire hotel. Also, they advertise laundry which was the main reason i chose it but there is no laundry and nothing close by that you can do yourself. False advertising.

This property is very charming. It doesn’t offer all that much but the charm makes it memorable. This part of town is great for tourists, nightlife, food. It’s actually very safe to walk at night you see kids and families walking past midnight. Police are around as well. I don’t like having to be buzzed in and out every time but I understand since it is on the corner of a busy street. But sometimes you might have to wait a minute or two to get let in. One time saw a family locked out late at night and the receptionist was asleep. I haven’t seen him since though. Probably a good thing because we were worried we may be locked out one of these days if he falls asleep again every time we went out late. Fortunately it didn’t happen to us. That being said I’d stay here again.

HORRIBLE. Only stay here if you speak Spanish


This hotel is run by college kids and it shows. After cleaning every easily accessible countertop surface and throwing away the layers of dust, I decided I did not want housekeeping in the room as I could do a better job. There is no notice to put on your door. I told the front desk THREE times, no housekeeping. Twice while sleeping housekeeping came into my room!
I get a call while sleeping to tell me I am past my check out date and need to pay. I went to the front desk and they speak to me in Spanish and i say: No hablo Espanol. The girl looks at me and says in Spanish: this is Argentina, speak Spanish here!
What?!!!!!!!!
I showed them my correct check out date and my bill was paid.
The hotel has long electronic codes to get into your room, but there is no light to see it. Towel slips off the white hooks to hold your towels.
You can’t eat in the room. You can’t control the air conditioning. Because we have smartphones now the staff basically was unhelpful and not one staff member speaks English and there is no laundry as per hotels.com site. hotels.com is partly to blame by not letting international people know that they only want Spanish Speaking people at the hotel. When I brought all of this up to the manager (a young kid), he just made excuses for the staff and said the woman who told me it was time to check out was suspended, WHICH WAS NOTHING BUT A LIE. THIS HOTEL IS HORRIBLE. but i will say they were kind enough to let me check in one hour early. NEVER AGAIN

When I arrived, I paid extra to check into my room before 2 p.m. However, the bathroom was dirty, so I had to request that it be cleaned. After that, I consistently felt that the room was not clean. To operate the air conditioning, you have to call the reception; there is no way to control the temperature yourself.
Additionally, several electrical outlets were loose. I would not return to this hotel, which, by the way, it should be considered instead a hostel.

Overall this was a good experience. The only thing is that we didn’t get new towels the whole 5 days we were there. We had to re-use them.
The maid just arranged the bed sheets each day but she didn’t sweep nor mopped the floor because we found the same pieces of garbage around the room every day. We didn’t pick it up just to see if she did and she never did. Sadly, we suffer of hair loss and the hair was never picked up in the room nor the bathroom. We had to do it ourselves
The staff was great specially in the front desk, the only thing to improve is the room cleanliness

Think twice before booking here!

I rate this hotel some stars because it was very convenient right on one of the main streets, we were able to walk to a lot of places we visited. Don't get me wrong the hotel is gorgeous looking! Elevator service was pretty good for a very old building. We arrived a few hours early, so we just left our bags checked in for the meantime. When we returned, we got situated to our room. EVERYTHING was wrong even before we stepped into our room. The light above our door was pitch black due to the light bulb burned out. The door wouldn't open for us with the code they gave us. We obviously complained and told us they would change the batteries. My cousin that traveled with us went to the bathroom and there was no toilet paper. We had a very rough beginning!! The problem with the door was ongoing for over two days. The girl was upset and yelling at me because I was upset and complaining. The only good thing she did was transfer us to a room that the door function right. You would think we could have got an upgrade for all the inconvenience but no we got squeezed into a smaller space than the one we had at first. Since it's a very old build there is no windows!!! We had to keep calling reception every time we needed the ac on and mind you it was several times because it automatically shut off and they don't leave you the ac control. If they couldn't program it from downstairs, they would have to come up into your room. The WIFI in any floor did not work and that is they had so many.

This is the one!

After a 9 week holiday in South America and Europe I rate La Fresque as my favourite accommodation stay. I love \"oldy worldy\" and this hotel has been beautifully and sympathetically restored. The lift alone is an experience but without a doubt this whole hotel has character with a capital \"C\".
The suites have so much room and the bedroom is located on a mezzanine level above accessed via a spiral staircase. The vaulted and arched ceiling was very special and appears to be a feature of older buildings in this city.
The city is very walkable and La Fresque is in a prime location for sightseeing, restaurants and cafes. We found a delightful wine bar about 200 metres from the hotel on the other side of the street. Turn right and head in that direction. You won't be disappointed.
The bed was quite comfortable and there was little street noise considering the proximity to the main street.
The downstairs museum is well worth a visit and appears to be at capacity. There is old stuff crammed everywhere.
So that's it. If you like quirky, unusual and prime position in Buenos Aires at a very reasonable price then look no further.

The location of this hotel is ideal! We loved being within walking distance of so many area attractions, restaurants and shopping. The building is interesting and artistic, very trendy. There are no exterior windows, which is a bit unnerving, but manageable.

Pictures are deceiving.

Rooms were very basic. The bathroom had very little space on the sink to put things. No shelf and no door in the shower. Water went all over the floor and became slippery. Only one chair on the first level, which you couldn’t even sit in because it had a hole in it. Bed was tolerable and sloped a bit on one side. Most of the lights didn’t work in the room. Room was noisy. The person upstairs sounded like they were moving furniture in clogs.
Location was great. Sube right outside the door. Walk ability to many places.

Many, many options for restaurants and shops within a short walk. There is a subway entrance literally 20 steps from the front door. The Obelisk is nearby, too. Great location. The real star is the front desk staff. They were so very help with luggage storage. Great stay.

Right downtown, not far from the big Av 9 de Julio obelisk. Mini-markets, restaurants, cafes, cambios a conveniently short walk away. If you like 1890’s architecture, clean and extremely well maintained, basic but classy you’ll love this place. Very Buenos Aires!

Good: Service, location (near main sites, great public transportation), unique architecture, cleanliness, good value for money, toiletries.

Bad: If you have mobility problems then the room design (with stairs) may not be for you, cannot self-control room temp.

Overall - Recommended as long as you are aware of it's weak points.

Almost perfect

It was a great stay, awesome location, just a few steps from the subte (the subway) and many landscapes a quick ride or bus away. Raúl at the front desk was amazing and super helpful.
The only bummer was that there was no breakfast as stated on the listing.

You get what you pay for.

Location was great - central to everything. The hotel is beautifully restored. Just be prepared if you pick the lowest priced room: our bedroom was up a flight of narrow stairs with the bathroom downstairs and no seating on first floor. Not ideal if you’re planning on killing a few bottles of very affordable Malbec every night. The staff were very helpful and courteous!

Avoid this hotel

Excrement on the outside of the toilet. We were moved rooms 3 times in 24 hours. Appalling reception staff and the manager was not there at any point for us to speak to. Stained bedding also.

Like the place for breakfast big and luminate and full of ancient things..
Prefer the room the second stay , was bigger and bed was upstairs. Same price but maybe less people.. was weekdays and absolutely no noises. Dark so we slept well.
They kept luggage while we went to Iguazu falls but doesn’t feel it was so secure... not closed area and locked.. but no issues when we came back!
Well situated... near lot of places walking. Loved it

Hell Week

This was hell week. It could be a great hotel but is is no sound proof. It is sol loud at night with traffic whether the windows are closed or not. AC not working, bed was rock hard, bathroom door had a hole in it and now it comes. You can hear every step the guest above you is making. We had a guest above us whom was very active between 10 om and 5 am. We literally had no sleep during this week. Great location but a nightmare stay. Staff did nothing to calm the guest above us down. Can not recommend at all.

It's in a perfect location being right between the Plaza de Mayo and the Capitol and has a aubway stop right outside. The room was great and had a balcony and was two levels (which i enjoyed but might not be great for elderly or disabled). The inside was historic with a historical working elevator. The only downfalls at all were the wifi was spotty at times and the staff didnt speak much English.

Great location and nice hotel.

It was a great stay. The location is incredible, minutes away from main attractions.
The hotel’s old French decor style is amazing, the rooms are well equipped with the basics and are clean.

I would have given this hotel a better rating, but the internet offered was weak, to the point of being non existent on our last day. Other than that, everything else was perfect.
