If you are going to Buenos Aires, you cannot go wrong with the Home Hotel. It seems like this hotel is no longer a secret: Trying to extend our stay was impossible due to the hotel being totally booked for the next month.

Home Hotel is located in Palermo, perhaps the coolest, most enjoyable part of Buenos Aires. The local area is filled with bars, cafes, restaurants and is the perfect place to stroll and discover new areas of Buenos Aires to love. It's a little far from the nearest subway stop, but given how cheap and plentiful taxis are, it's not a big issue.

The hotel itself is amazing. Small, personal and very very stylish. The pool/garden area at the back of the hotel is the perfect place to chill out, feels like a private beach club and looks like it has come out of a design magazine. You can have breakfast out here, which isn't to be missed either: The breakfast looks like a work of contemporary art (shot glasses of intriguing juice combinations, butter infusions etc), and tastes great.

Rooms, while on the small side, are stark but comfortable. The polished concrete floors are great in summer, but may be cold in winter.

Staff were fantastic throughout our stay, and they look good too (clearly the hotel is going for a certain effect). Don't forget to ask for their recommendations in the area - we cannot fault where they sent us for dinner. And you get a little guide book of places to go in BA, which have all proved really worthwhile.

Overall, this place is outstanding. You really won't forget it. And for the price, you'll keep asking where the catch is. There isn't one, but don't forget to book early.

GREAT STUFF:
- Design of the hotel, common areas
- Location in the coolest part of BA, quiet and serene
- Young, hip and good-looking staff know BA and where to go
- Pool/garden area is amazing

GOOD STUFF:
- Rooms and beds, comfortable but not 5-star
- Breakfast. Delicious, and looks great too
- Cheap laundry service

NOT SO GOOD STUFF:
- Drinks/food are expensive by BA standards
- Too many fashion/design types holding meetings in the garden area is a bit of an irritation for those on vacation

  • Liked — Stylish design, wonderful staff, perfect location
  • Disliked — Relaxing environment spoiled by fashion/design types treating the hotel as their second office

Stayed in the HOME HOTEL Apartment JAN 2008. Great place 10 min walk from PALERMO SOHO and in a up and coming area of BA about 25 min from the MICRO CENTER and SAN TELMO. We were there with two small children and we could not have had a nicer stay. The staff was great and friendly , the really set the bar high. The Pool was great its nice, at least in the summer, to have a oasis to come back to after touring BA. My 4 year old loved the pool . Its not technically a family place but since they do not get children that musch I think everyone was delighted to see some fun small kids enjoying the hotel and Argentina. The front desk staff organized transport , tours pretty much everything, and did it with a smile!

Just came back from a 10 day stay in BA. Home Hotel I have to say was the highlight of my trip. The service was amazing. The hotel is a cool, hip hotel located in the "trendy" Palermo Hollywood neighborhood of BA. The front desk staff, Cecilia and Hernan were amazing and the most helpful people ever. The night time bar staff, Christian, Alejandro, Natala were amazing and so attentive and friendly, which made our stay so enjoyable. The drinks were AMAZING. I will always remember "my special drink". The restaurant staff in the morning always brightened my day. Patricia, Sonja always smiling and helpful. I miss Home so much. We are going back to BA over New Years and Home is the hotel we will stay at. I want to thank all of the staff at Home Hotel for making our trip the best ever.

Home hotel is a very nice and trendy hotel in the Palermo neighbourhood. The bar (great cocktails) and restaurant are adjacent to a nice garden with pool and at night even an open fire place. The rooms are stylish decorated. Lounging by the pool before or after exploring Buenos Aires is true luxury. emiel and karin from amsterdam

Home Hotel is a wonderful hotel located in the Palermo Hollywood area of BA. All the shops, cafe's and restaurants are a stone's throw away.

The suites are incredibly comfortable and the owners have thought about everything one would need to feel at home, whilst on holiday.

* hair straighteners
*A personalised 'Best of BA' travel book
*Maps of each district within BA
*Home also sell the Timeout magazine
*CD Player in every room
*CDs provided
*IPOD chargers
*Towels sprayed with essential oils
*The HOME breakfast is presented in the most thoughtful and interesting way....you'll see.

Hence, you will feel that you are at home.

The staff are informative and friendly and will ensure that you get the most out of BA.

A MUST........
If you get a chance you must see ROJO TANGO at La Faena Hotel. In terms of design La Faena is just spectacular and the ROJO TANGO show provided us with an incredible insight of the Tango in a very sexy, lush and beautiful environment.
