“Look Elsewhere. Don't Believe The Hype”

InterContinental Hotel Buenos Aires

2 of 5 stars
Cambridge, Massachusetts
Feb 2, 2008
1/3 found this review helpful

Booked this hotel based on tripadvisor reviews, hotel website and location. When I got to the room it looked nothing like the pictures on the website. The room was old, shabby, musty, and smelled like smoke (booked non-smoking). When I went back to the lobby to ask for another, non-smoking, room they said the only option was to upgrade. So, for an additional $20USD I could have a non-smoking room, oh and it looked the pictures on the website, go figure. Being repulsed by musty smoke filled rooms (and the fact that by now all other hotels in BA were sold out) I agreed, albeit bitterly. The upgraded room was clean and comfortable. It turns out that the room I thought I booked (from photo) was available for an additional $20USD. It’s clear they work hard to up-sell and as a result I felt I had been had. Other annoyances: room was not available 'till 9:00pm (they refused to move my bags, so when I got back from dinner I had to re-check in, collect my bags from my old room, move to new room and then return the key – while a hotel attendant followed me). Upon checking out I overheard people in the lobby complaining to the staff that they had just been mugged right outside the hotel, the staff seemed to care less.
For the amount of money and the options BA has I would strongly suggest you book elsewhere. The Sheraton is a MUCH better choice, as is the Esplandor. I stay in hotels about 275 nights a year and I will never stay at an InterContinental again in my life. They market themselves as a full-service styling hotel, which is absolutely false. They are nothing more then a large Holiday Inn.

“Very nice hotel”

InterContinental Hotel Buenos Aires

5 of 5 stars
Perth, Australia

1/3 found this review helpful

We stayed three nights at the Intercontinental Buenos Aires, and really enjoyed our stay. The room is nice, the bed is very comfortable, and the staff are helpful and speak excellent English as you would expect at an Intercontinental. But beware of the bottled water - $13 for 1.5 litres!

Of all the hotels we stayed at in South America, this was the only one that provided complimentary English language newspapers, and also baggage tags that are quite attractive.

There aren't a lot of shops or restaurants in the immediate vicinity of the hotel, but you are within easy walking distance of "interesting" areas including the centre of Buenos Aires and San Telmo. The hotel is also located close to the Subte (metro) which is handy for getting around.

“Another Great Stay”

InterContinental Hotel Buenos Aires

Nov 9, 2007
2/3 found this review helpful

For the second year in a row my husband and I took a trip down to BA and stayed at the InterContinental. At check in we upgraded to the club level. Where we enjoyed breath taking views of the city for breakfast and enjoyed evening cocktails and snacks before dinner.
The Sunday Brunch is a must try, what a great variety of foods, they have everything.
Staff is friendly and very personable and it's a first class stay!!

My wife and I stayed at the Hotel and enjoyed the whole stay.
The rooms are nice. The service is outstanding. The staff is very helpful and told us a lot about the local area and where to visit. The lobby bar is nice with live music.

5/6 found this review helpful

I loved this hotel, it is the best hotel I ever stayed in, it was absolutely lovely. The rooms were very nice, excellent service from staff, they all speak excellent english. The food at the restaurant is very good, lovely restaurant. The pizza in the lobby is the best pizza ever.
This hotel gives the little extra like fruits in the room, newspaper in english, got an interconinental name tag for luggage, and the staff is always giving service with a smile.

it also has a good gym, and a nice pool.

I also liked the location just a short walk to florida street the main shopping street.

I will definately stay here again.
