The hype
Travelers appreciate the massive rooms and helpful staff, but often note the property feels like a 'classic' hotel showing its age.
Doubletree By Hilton Buenos Aires
$120-170/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You want a reliable, spacious home base in Microcentro that works for both business suits and families needing a pool break.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Huge rooms that dwarf typical city shoeboxes
- Heated indoor pool that saves rainy days
- Walking distance to Galerías Pacífico and Florida Street
Kurzfassung: It’s a rebranded Meliá in a business district that turns into a ghost town after dark, but the beds are solid and the cookies are warm.
Bewertet von @saramontoyam: I stayed at the rebranded DoubleTree in Microcentro and it was exactly what I needed. The room was spacious enough to properly relax with wine, and having a live flight screen in the lobby saved me so much stress before heading to the airport. Breakfast was a highlight too!
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check
Housekeeping can be inconsistent—reports of missing towels or toilet paper are annoying for a brand of this caliber.
- You need a guaranteed quiet workspace with a desk
- You're traveling with kids who need a pool to burn energy
- You prioritize square footage over trendy decor

Vor der Buchung
Gut zu wissen

- You get a warm chocolate chip cookie at check-in—it's the brand signature and it's actually good.
- Currency exchange is vital in Argentina; ask the concierge for the most reliable nearby 'cueva' or Western Union.
Was Sie einpacken sollten
- Universal travel adapter (Argentina uses Type I)
- US Dollars (crisp, new $100 bills) for the best exchange rates
- Earplugs if you're sensitive to internal hotel noise

“I'd love a high-floor room away from the elevators, preferably with a view that isn't just an office wall. If a renovated room is available, that would be ideal.”
FAQ & Geheimtipps
Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is the pool open year-round?
Yes, the indoor pool is heated and open all year. There is also an outdoor deck/pool area for summer.
Is the area safe at night?
It's safe enough to walk short distances, but because it's a business district, it empties out. Uber or Cabify is recommended after 9 PM.
Does the hotel offer airport transfer?
Not a free one. They can arrange a 'remis' (private car) for a fee, which is safer and nicer than a street taxi.
Is breakfast included?
Not standard. It's often an extra fee (~$15-20 USD). Check your specific booking rate.
Can I exchange money at the hotel?
You can, but the rate will likely be the official one (lower value). You're better off using Western Union or a trusted exchange house nearby.
Is there a gym?
Yes, a functional fitness center with cardio machines and weights. It's not Equinox, but it gets the job done.
Insider-Tipps
- ✨
The hotel was formerly a Meliá, so some design elements still feel very Spanish/European classic.
- ✨
Ask for a room with a balcony—rare in this city center but available in some suites.
- ✨
The concierge can often get you into tango shows that claim to be 'sold out'.
5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren
💡The lobby bar 'Gongora' is surprisingly decent for a nightcap if you don't want to venture out.
💡Housekeeping can be stingy with towels; ask for extra at check-in.
💡The 'outdoor pool' is more of a plunge pool/terrace situation than a resort swimmer.
💡You are literally 2 minutes from one of the best casual steakhouses in the city (Santos Manjares).
💡The elevators can be slow during morning rush hour.
