Grand King Hotel - Buenos Aires, Argentina 

The location is superb but we had trouble sleeping due to the heat of the room (and that was with the window wide open and no heating ever put on) and the noises in the hotel, e.g. the lifts. If the hotel had provided airconditioning or even fans, it would have been OK. I never imagined we would have such a problem in winter. I probably wouldn't stay here again even though it's an extremely well-located hotel with a good breakfast provided.

The location of this hotel is fantastic...you are literally right on Florida street, a major Pedestrian area, lot's of shopping and restaurants...you can walk to many many attractions from this location...and the subways are also close by. We were on the 6th floor, our room was outdated and could have smelled a little "fresher"...but when taking the stairs instead of the tiny elevators one day we noticed that all of the floors below us had been renovated, the rooms had hardwood floors, new furniture and paint and key swipe cards...so, when you book ask for a room below the 6th floor until the renos make their way up! Our room face Florida street and it was noisy, from early morning until late at night...between people and construction, but ear plugs solved that. The hotel staff were helpful, but not many spoke english very well, adn it's the first hotel I've ever stayed at in the world that refused to mail some postcards (already stamped) for me...and they seemed limited in their ability to help us book some of the things we wanted to do (ie attend a football match) so we just went to a travel desk in a shopping centre. Overall I highly recommend this hotel for it's location alone...if you can manage to get one of the renovated rooms, even better.
