Just returned from a one week stay in BA at the home hotel. With the cheap peso (3 to 1) you can't do much better than this. It's a small (17 rooms), new and very modern hotel in the Palermo Hollywood area. There are 2 suites available but the superior rooms are small but very nice. The location is great as many of the best restaurants are in this area of Palermo and thus walkable. This area in under a build-up of new restuarants and small homes and is quaint. Palermo is divided into hollywood and viejo. The viejo area is about a 15 min walk and has numerous cafes and great shopping. The only other hotel in this area is the BoBo which is tiny with only four rooms. The typical bigger hotels in Recolleta are more expensive. The cabs are everywhere and cheap (about 3 dollars to go across town). Dinner with steak, wine and tip is usually $10/person. Eat at Elle, Grappa and the Green Bamboo....all walkable. The musem of fine art, the Colon theater and Recolleta cemetary are worth seeing. Go to the Sat/Sun small street fain in Palermo Viejo and the big Sun one across town for antiques, crafts, etc. We walked all over the city with no problems. The parks are great. Taking the subway is inconvenient and hot. Use the cheap taxis instead. Highly recommended is a side trip to Iguazu falls for 2 days if you have the time. Stay at the Hotel Cataratas near town and eat at La Rueda (get the lomo).

We stayed for 5 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The Hotel is located in a good neighbourhood and there are plenty of great places too eat and drink nearby. We stayed in the superior room for most of our stay, which was lovely, but the suite is definitely worth the extra.

We loved the pool, which provided a tranquil oasis in the city, and the breakfasts were amazing.

On the whole the staff were very friendly and helpful, although the service did fall short of our expectations on a couple of occasions. On the whole a great place to stay, and I would thoroughly recommend it.

If we were to return to BA again I would definitely go “Home”.

My husband and I stayed at the Home Hotel and highly recommend it to anyone wanting to spend time in BA. It was very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. We started our day with a wonderful breakfast. Our waitress, Patricia, was always so eager to please. We were fairly close to the center of activity (we walked about 7-8 blocks to the Sub-T stop and got to the Plaza de Mayo within 15-20 min.) and yet we were in very quiet part of BA, so the Home Hotel is in a great location. Taxis are incredibly cheap, but it takes awhile to get around, depending on the time of day.

Cecila at the front desk helped us order ice cream one night. We were able to order 24/7---it was very good and around 14 pesos for a kilo(less than $5.00) All in all, the staff went out of their way and certainly made us feel very at home.
