If only every hotel could be like Home....where can I start? The spare-chic but exceptionally comfortable room, the faaaabulous garden resto-bar and pool, the relaxed living room with its open-to-all internet connection, the 16 rooms that mean staff know your name by the 2nd time you walk in the door, the great location in Palermo, the delicious breakfast, well-made cocktails, etc etc.

Certainly the hotel's design is sexy and the food/drink is appealing, but what made it an unprecedented experience was that it was all that -- without the snootiness that typically accompanies the boutique hotel experience. **The staff were the best I've encountered at a hotel of any size, in any large city in the world, period.** We were steered to the local parillas for truly sublime bife and malbec with a better scene and even lower prices (hard to believe) than the tourist joints, to the leather block for locals, and when I had an airline-related issue, the staff was persistent and annoyed on my behalf just as I would have been in the US. They were truly the definition of hospitality....and when we left, they all said, "Oh! I am so sad you are leaving us" and it felt like they really meant it.

My minor complaints/caveats are that this isn't a hotel for families due to the Chic Factor -- a few guests brought young children and everyone hated them...it's just too small; the rooms could probably add a few more shelves/drawers to help those who are staying for a week or so; we didn't mind that it was a 15-minute walk to the Metro, but some people might think that's an inconvenience. We were a bit nervous about our street-front room but the traffic and notoriously late-night BA revelers did not present a problem at all.

I travel frequently for business and try to always stay in the same places -- many on a monthly basis and all where I belong to frequent stay programs. I *never* get treated the way we were treated at Hotel Home as first-time guests and that says to me that they approach their business differently. I wish I could find more hotels like this in the U.S.....If you're going to BsAs, definitely pick Hotel Home and say hello to Gabriela, Tom, Patricia, Natalia and everyone else!

Beautifully designed, Home Hotel looks like something that came out straight from a West Elm catalogue. I particularly liked the Home breakfast, which comes with two shots of fresh fruit juices, dulce de leche and butter swirl, ganache spread and citrus marmalade with your bread rolls and croissants. Excellent presentation and simply gourmet. There's an iMac in the lobby for your convenience. The staff are super helpful and speaks good English. The pool is outdoor and heated, surrounded by a beautiful garden with a fireplace. The bathroom is equiped with hairdryer and large dispensers of shampoo, conditioner, & shower gel--all no-name but quality products. There's also TV and CD player in the room. WiFi in the room avail. My only complaint is that the pillows aren't very comfortable. I woke up with a stiff neck two days in a roll. Overall highly recommended.

Home Hotel is like being a guest in an old friend's home. It is so comfortable, relaxed, and fun. I stayed three nights in mid-September and loved it so much I booked another night at the end of my trip. The location in the Palermo Hollywood neighborhood of BsAs could not be better. It is a nice walk to the metro stop or to loads of shops and cafes. And, it is very safe. I wish all my hotel stays were this wonderful!

I just returned from a 4-night stay at Home Hotel, and I cannot complain about a single thing. The hotel is gorgeous--the rooms are charming, the bar is cool, and the pool and outdoor area are beautiful. The spa and our massages were fabulous, too--not to mention cheap at about $50 each. The staff is friendly and accomodating as well. I highly recommend this hotel!
