Most hotels in this Spanish-owned chain share the same interior design: stylishly modern, a touch minimalist, yet very comfortable. The NH Jousten is no exception, and is a very successful, chic "rebuild" of a lovely Art Deco building on av. Corrientes in downtown Buenos Aires, next to the Post Office and a few minutes walk from Puerto Madero. Rooms are medium-sized, comfortably furnished, with very good bathrooms and a lot of closet space; they are well-insulated from outside noise. Staff are helpful and efficient throughout. There is a large, airy lobby with a nice bar just adjacent. The restaurant is on the lower ground floor, where an excellent buffet breakfast is served; at other times an a la carte menu is offered, and the restaurant is noted for its excellent dinners (although we didn't dine there in the evening). The Jousten is great value for money. My only reservation about it is the location: during the day it is very convenient, but at night this area of the city can feel comparatively deserted and some may find it a little spooky. Nevertheless, on both occasions on which we stayed there during December (for 4 days), the NH Jousten proved to be an excellent choice.
