Just returned from a weeks stay at the Tribeca, and I cannot praise the accomodation highly enough. The room we received was excellent in terms of space and cleanliness ( looked like a New York loft apartment). The staff spoke more than adequate English and were very helpful. The area is not the best but we never felt uneasy even returning on foot at night. The location is pretty central which means you can walk or use a taxi to visit the surrounding attractions. All in all I highly recommend it !!!

We stayed at the Tribeca for 5 days and were very pleased. At first we were put off by the messy street location, but that was the only drawback. The location is very convienent to shopping, restaurants, Av. de 9 Julio and Av de Mayo. Everything is within easy walking distance. Hotel courtyard is very pleasing. Rooms large, modern and neat. Liked the kitchen table where we spread out our maps and brochures and sipped mate. Hotel restaurent serves a nice breakfast (included), and also has free internet access.
Staff is friendly and efficient, and someone there always seemed to speak English. They will arrange tours, tango shows, and point you in the right direction for anywhere you want to go. They know BA very well!

I have stayed at several hotels and apart hotels in Buenos Aires in the past seven years. I made an extensve and intensive search for a place to stay this time and I can say that the photos and reviews I checked before booking a room at the Tribeca were accurate: It is a great and beautiful small hotel, with great services and a great location... all for a very affordable price.
The hotel building is a former shoe factory that was completely renovated a few years ago, but it maintains the character. The courtyard is very beautiful and provides natural light to all rooms. The rooms are ample and the ceiling is very high. The furniture is modern and attractive. The bathroom is pitch clean and comfortable. A tasty and varied buffet breakfast is included in the room rate, and is served at a room on the first floor. Great coffee, croissants, pastries, fresh fruit, juice, yoghurt, etc.
The hotel has a sauna, a gym and a small pool on the fourth floor -all included in the room rate, too. Wi-fi Internet connection is included, too.
The restaurant offers good food at decent prices.
The staff are very friendly and helpful with city tips, cab reservation and wakeup call.
The hotel is at walking distance from the downtown area and the theater and bookstore district along Corrientes avenue. Don't let the street run-down appearance mislead you: Mitre may not be the prettiest street in Buenos Aires, but it's safe.
Too good to be true? It's true! I will certainly stay at the Tribeca again and will recommend it to my friends. I'm a pleased guest.

I stayed here for 3 days in March 2007. The hotel is centrally located close to 9 Julio and Avenido de Mayo with shops and restaurants nearby, although the immediate vicinity is rather down at heel. We did not feel unsafe while walking in the evening although it may be advisable to take a taxi (they are cheap anyway). With a booking through an internet agent, we paid around US$45 per night for a twin room, which was good value. Otherwise, the rack rate is around US$100. The room was large with high ceilings. There was some noise from the street. The bathroom was in need of better ventilation as it got rather humid. Breakfast was good with a selection of cereals, yogurt, fruit, coffee, etc. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful, providing advice on shopping and calling taxis.
