NH is just ok.

I had some potential bed bug issues.

The location is not ideal, taxis are a problem.

The staff is very aloof. But, the breakfast buffet is built into the room price and is nice.

Best perhaps for business folks, not vacationers.

Stay in Palermo !!!!! Trust me.

We stayed here a total of 4 nights. The loby and bar are attractive, with modern furnishings. The front desk, while not effusively friendly, was very efficient and organized. The room we had was on the small side, but nicely furnished. We had a tiny but cute balcony over Av. Corrientes which was also nice. Buffet breakfast was decent. Location was a mixed bag. On the one hand, it was within walking distance of the major tourist sights and Puerto Madera (with all of its bars and restaurants) as well as a subway station, but the neighborhood felt very commercial overall. You will need to get a taxi to go out to Recoleta or Palermo as well.

The NH Jousten was a very friendly place to stay although the locaiton is not great for tourists. We had a nice corner room with many amenities. The staff was very helpful although the front desk clerk is a bit of a sourpuss! We did get accosted by pickpockets outside the hotel in broad daylight. They sprayed some goo on us and made us to think that it was bird excrement. Their trick did not succeed though!

I booked this hotel due to various comments about the location. In fact this hotel is strategically located at walking distance to the most visited places in Buenos Aires: two blocks from Casa Rosada, about 400 mts far from Puerto Madero, 3 blocks from Calle Florida, near to the 9th July Avenue...

However I was in honneymoon, in this aspect the hotel became very "average" and disappointed me. The service works, but is not personal as I wish... the room is nice, but not charming or romantic... Even the build is more beautiful in the photos than live.

In other words, if you're looking for a non-fancy stay, in a well located hotel, but no-frills, with an efficient (but not properly pleasant) service go to NH Jousten.
