I had a wonderful experience at Up Congreso Hotel during my recent trip to Buenos Aires. The location is unbeatable, just steps from the Congress Palace and a short walk to iconic spots like Palacio Barolo and Café Tortoni. The room was modern, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything I needed—comfortable bed, Smart TV, and reliable WiFi. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to assist with local recommendations and quick check-in. The complimentary coffee was a nice touch, and the jacuzzi in my premium room was perfect for unwinding. Great value for money and a prime spot for exploring the city. I’d definitely return!

Hotel and area are terrific. The air conditioning unit in my room was unresponsive and the room was extremely cold which is the only reason I gave only 4 stars under the property condition category. Would stay here again!

Pelo preço cobrado era para ter café da manhã

Estadia razoável. Quarto com janela interna para um área de iluminação e a internet oscilava bastante. Não reserve com antecedência. Fiz isso e acabei pagando mais do que deveria na data da estadia. Pelo preço cobrado era para ter direito ao café da manhã.

Não reserve antes de ler esta avaliação! Fiquei 5 noites e queria ter visto uma avaliação como essa antes de reservar este hotel. Pontos positivos: é bem localizado, próximo a muitos pontos turísticos, muito acessível e da pra fazer quase tudo a pé. Pontos negativos: o Hotel é muito simples, não possui nenhuma opção de lazer, não havia nenhum funcionário bilíngue, é bem barulhento, você vai escutar os hóspedes que estão ao lado e em cima de você, fora que a sala de serviço da camareira era grudada no quarto e todos os dias acordamos com o barulho dela abrindo a porta com a chave. A pior decepção foi o café da manhã, que foi pago a parte, um grande arrependimento porque é horrível! Café ruim, bolo industrializado, nada era fresco. Só comemos no primeiro dia porque não sabíamos como era, aqui eu só gastei dinheiro atoa. As
