I loved staying at Ulises Recoleta Suites. Very pleasant area for walking to nearby points of interest. Excellent staff! They were all delightful and very accomodating, from welcoming us at check-in to the moment we departed. Our room was very comfortable and truly felt like our home while we stayed. I am already looking forward to staying here again. Wonderful.

Me encantó alojarme en Ulises Recoleta Suites. Es una zona muy agradable para ir caminando a los puntos de interés cercanos. ¡El personal es excelente! Todos fueron encantadores y sumamente atentos, desde el momento en que nos recibieron en el registro de entrada hasta nuestra partida. Nuestra habitación era muy cómoda y, durante nuestra estancia, realmente nos hizo sentir como en casa. Ya estoy deseando volver a alojarme aquí. Maravilloso.

In the shadow, of course, of the Alvear Palace Hotel with it's magnificent belle epoch interiors and array of dining facilities for all tastes and, to a certain extent, budgets. Savvy attendees of events at the CCC would be wise to lodge at the Ulises and spend the savings indulging themselves across the road.

The staff at the Ulises were all very friendly with passable accommodations and a 24 hour front desk. We took a labyrinthine 'Executive Suite' on the eighth floor. Most suitable to our particular requirements but then we are bohemian world travellers in pursuit of knowledge, not luxury.

If you are not too fussy (though the place is far from Augean) and value locale and idiosyncrasy above sameness, this could be the place for you. I just hope you don't go and book it up before me next time I blow in to BA. :-)

Oh! and the kitchen equipment inventory XP says you are yearning to learn about: as I recall, our suite boasted a microwave and a highly effective fridgador, but no tea kettle or hob. So, this is more a dormitory with table and chairs than a true home-from-home. Ciao Luis.

The neighborhood is extremly convienitent with tourist attractions and major bus lines in easy walking distance. The room was clean and comfortable. I appreaciated having a microwave, plates, bowls and cutlery in the room. I found the breakfast only average. Some days tehere was ham, cheese or eggs on one day there was no protein. Just pastries, bread and cereal. Some days there were apples, oranges and bananas, but not everyday.

Good choice for the price

Excellent location, friendly staff. A tad run down; poor breakfast (at additional free from $15). Plumbing needs a bit of work (toilets keep running--they function fine, but that running water sound was impossible to stop in our room and the room next door). Suite comes with small stove, microwave, fridge, and few plates etc. Friendliness and proximity to Recoleta cemetery and other sites made it a good choice, particularly given low price (at least by US standards).

Stay away!!!

I picked this hotel for a short stay because of its web site and location. The web description and photos do not match the facility. It was the third and last hotel in our trip to Argentina. The room and its furnishings need to be updated. The room had a musty smell and water stains. The lighting was dim. The toilet flapper valve needed to be replaced, because water ran slowly after the tank was full. The hair dryer ran for 9 seconds and shut off. We had to get another one from the front desk,
I asked for a US adapter plug, and they told me I could buy one in the morning.
We had a substandard breakfast the next morning. The food did look anything like the web. We discovered that the front desk people did not understand English. On the second day of our stay, I tried to open the room safe. It did not open. The owner changed the batteries. I am not sure what would have happened if he was not there.
I had to get a replacement for the air conditioning remote because the one in the room did not work.
When I asked about printing my boarding passes I Was told the printer was broken. When I asked when it would be fixed the answer was “I do not know, I am only an employee.”

Great location and a very comfortable bed. The staff was very friendly and I felt welcomed. However, I stayed at this hotel before but this time it was disappointing.
The hotel is being refurbished and it certainly needs it. I would recommend to stay after renovation.
Key issues:
1. wifi was intermittent which meant I couldn’t work properly as I was planning.
2. Air condition unit was old and very noisy. It’s on its last legs and it doesn’t cool the room very fast.
3. The socket next to the mirror in the bathroom was missing part of its cover which could be dangerous for kids. This can be fixed easily.
4. The shower head has seen better days and it’s easy to replace.
I appreciate they are renovating the hotel and the price reflected the condition but I would expect issues with basic things like sockets, air con and wifi should be sorted.
I would go back after renovation because the area is excellent.

The location was also great, and walking distance to the Recoleta Cemetery (where Evita Peron is buried) and outdoor markets. The only problem we had was that the a/c wasn't working our first night and there was a super annoying water drip that kept some of us up all night. However, the following date the hotel staff moved us to a bigger room. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Location, location, location

We are repeat customers. Across the street is hotel Alvear, Buenos Aires best hotel, with all nearby amenities that mean: good restaurants, safe place to change currency, taxis galore. Very safe neighborhood: purse snatchers are common elsewhere in the city. Breakfast included in the fare was fine, although leaning excessively towards bread and pastries, a problem for those in a gluten-free diet. If you do not breakfast early, you may have to look for plates in cupboards, as tables are not reset promptly. Breakfast service ended at 10:30, which seems reasonable, but since we travel to Buenos Aires mostly for its excellent theatre and opera (I am more a visitor than a tourist), we barely made it.

Decent hotel in an excellent location

Decent hotel in an excellent location; no better location in Buenos Aires. Hotel could use a minor refurbishment, but beds were comfortable, a/c worked well, bathroom was decent (shower head/pressure was only marginal). Included a kitchenette with two-burner stove (but no cooking implements, although they might have been available on request), refrigerator, sink, and toaster oven (no microwave). Breakfast was mostly continental, but with nice pastries, ham/cheese, fruit salad, etc. Best thing about breakfast was it continued until 11 AM. Last two days the WiFi was partially out of order, a minor nuisance (had to use lobby connection). Service was decent in breakfast room, limited otherwise. One day I asked for clean glassware in the room and was told I had to clean the glasses myself, not part of hotel service, although they were replaced the next day. Light next to my bed didn't work; I requested it be fixed but they were unable to repair it. Instead they provided a floor lamp, which was an excellent substitute.

Perfect location, very friendly staff

The location of the hotel is perfect - on a quiet street, right across the Alvear Palace Hotel, one of the most expensive in Buenos Aires. Close by taxi or even by foot to the center of the city, and very close for daily walks on the Avenida Libertador.
The hotel is small - about 25 rooms. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The room furniture is rather old, but it didn't bother me. Breakfast was abundant, although I would like to avoid some of the tempting pieces of cake. In general, a perfect choice if you're looking for an economy hotel, and location is for you more important than some details regarding the physical maintenance.

Unbeatable location, very friendly staff

An unbeatable location just across from the Alvear Palace Hotel. The staff is most friendly and several of them also worked there when I first stayed there in the late 1990's. The Ulises has been owned by the same family for several decades and a family member is there almost every day to oversee service delivery. The decor in some of the rooms can be a bit tired and not all of the room safes work properly. However, I find those small distractions to pale in comparison to the location, value, staff and cleanliness. I will stay there again.

Great Staff, Great Service and Great Location

I stayed in Ulises for a few days. And I love this hotel.
First, the staff is very helpful and fantastic.
--- I want to send my special thanks to the front desk staff-Orlando and Marina.
---When I talked with Orlando that I wanted to watch a soccer game if he could help me on that. It was 3pm on Sunday. And Orlando made a lot of phone call to contact agencies and friends to get me a ticket to the Sunday match. Finally I got one. Then he helped me order a Pizza. Very considerate. Though the Sunday match was cancelled because of the heavy rain, I had a good experience. Then he also helped to get my refund for the match ticket.Then I kept asking Orlando a lot of questions on Buenos Aires, He was always very patient and helped me a lot. Thank you. Orlando.
----When I first arrived Ulises, it was Marina to help me register, keep my luggage and guided me to the nearby bus stop and recommended several locations to visit. It was also Marina to recommend a good Tango show. I enjoyed the Tango show very much.
---The other staff were also very friendly.

Second, the service is excellent.
The room is very clean.The whole set-up is also very convenient. The room even has a small kitchen. It is also very quiet. The wi-fi is good and have a good speed.

Third, the location is great.
The neighborhood is safe and clean. It is near the cemetery, the museum, the bus stop and a lot of beautiful stores.

I am sure I will stay in Ulises again when I visit Buenos Aires again. And I know I will have a good time and enjoy my stay.

Excellent convenient safe location

This hotel is situated directly across the street from one of the top 5 star hotels in Buenos Aires and where you can enjoy the same location for a fraction of the price! It is very secure with the reception \"manned\" 24/7. It is located very close to the famous La Recoleta Cemetery and is the right side of town for the domestic airport (Jorge Newbery) which is a big advantage if one is visiting other locations in this vast country such as the Iguazu Falls etc. The only negatives for us was the very small lift (when you have all your luggage with you!) and the small sized breakfast room which serves a limited but adequate buffet style breakfast. The staff are very helpful and friendly and we have no hesitation in recommending it.

Great location! In Recoleta, a Street away from Alvear Palace a luxury hotel in Buenos Aires. The neighorhood is Excelent, you can walk around and find good restaurants and Cafés. Also a Supermarket and Shopping Centers and stores. A good hotel for its Price. But... The hotel doesn´t look like the photos showed in Hotel.com web page. It looked great in the pictures, and personally is not that great. I also didnt like that the same day I arrived I reported the wáter mixer in the tub was not working. I left after 4 nights in the hotel and it was not fixed Almost burned trying to get the right wáter temperature when taking a shower. I reported it EVERY DAY, and never fixed!

Great location - this hotel is a gem!

I would recommend staying at this hotel for a visit to Buenos Aires. The location is great - we could walk to many tourist places from here. It is worthwhile knowing that the Subte doesn't reach the area but it is possible to walk from the closest station. The are was beatiful, service superb, small hotel with people who went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. I would stay here again!

Great hotel for singles and Recoleta fans

Very nice personnel, very helpful, some English spoken. Location is great - close to Recoleta best places. Hotel rooms would need some maintenance on cable lines. Less power outlets. Small breakfast room, nice continental breakfast bar. Great hotel for singles and couples, not for family. 4 rooms per floor.

Small hotel in a posh area

Ulises is a small hotel in a posh part of town. I chose this hotel because I was attending a conference a couple of blocks away, but it's not great for sightseeing. There is no subway nearby and the restaurants across from the cemetery are just tourist traps. Barrio Norte a is a better option for tourists.

Rooms are clean, big, and well-kept. Breakfast is not great, but it's typical of Argentina: lots of sweets and not much fruit. People at the front desk are nice and I didn't have any problems with my Expedia prepaid reservation.

Perfect location, correct hotel

I specially like the location. The hotel is small and new. I have stayed more than once. In the heart of Recoleta, half block from Alverar avenue. I will come back.

Comfortable and convinient

The hotel was great, but the check in process was not so great. First they told me that I didn't have a reservation and that was the end of it. When I told them I reserved through hotels.com they said, \"ohhh that we have in a different place and you need to forward us the email with the reservation, the confirmation number isn't enough\". So I had to get on their computer, and forward them them hotel.com email.

Location could not be better, a few blocks from Recoleta just hasf a blcok from the beatiful Alvear avenue. New, simple and comfortable without luxury. Breakfast was OK for me but the space is very, very small. I would say this was the only minor inconvenience if breakfast is very important to you. I was in a studio and it has a small kitchenette.

boutique hôtel/great location

This hotel was in a fantastic location for walking around the Redoleta district. We could walk to the shopping, points of interest and many great places for dinner.
Across the street is a wonderful bakery. The room was large, clean and neat. The staff was the best part of our stay at the hotel. We spoke very little Spanish. They
had staff who spoke various levels of English from very well to a few words here and there. We all communicated though and had fun doing it! We got very good at
charades and we all learned the others language a little bit better.

Time @ The Ulises Recoleta Hotel

I spent almost two weeks at this hotel and I would say that the overall experience was very positive. Location, staff, condition of the hotel, breakfast, and internet service were all very good. I would definitely go back to this hotel.
