My wife and I stayed at Posada Palermo for 5 nights in November 2007. Viviana and Alejandro were so welcoming and made us feel very comfortable. We stayed in room #1 which was large and very quiet. Alejandro helped us with reservations for restaurants and made great recommendations. The location was great as it was a 10 minute walk to the shops and restaurants of Palermo Viejo and we also enjoyed the neighborhood closer to the B&B around Plaza Guemes. We found that area, including Charcas, to have many cafes, bakeries and other places that felt like we were in a real neighborhood and not just a tourist area. When we return to BA in the future we will definitely stay at Posada Palermo.

My family stayed at Posada Palermo for 8 days in November 2007. We had a wonderful time here.

As noted by other reviewers, Viviana and Alejandro provided a very welcoming atmosphere for all guests. They would be present at every breakfast to ask how the previous day was and to recommend sights or restaurants. Viviana is the owner who created a very warm and interesting space out of what they call a "chorizo" house. Alejandro is the manager who was enormously helpful in arranging transportation from and to the airport and making reservations for polo games, restaurants, etc. We also learned a lot about the Argentine way of life from these breakfast talks.

The room we had was very clean and comfortable. The street can be slightly noisy in the morning, but the insulation seems to work well enough.

The location of the B&B can't be beat with Palermo Viejo restaurants and boutiques just minutes away by foot and the Subte stop (Bulnes) about four blocks away. For travelers with children, I would note that there is a nice playground set in the middle of a plaza a block away.

All in all, we can fully recommend this gem in the heart of Palermo.

The room was great, breakfast outstanding and the hospitality amazing. We really enjoyed visiting with Alejandro and getting an insight on life in Buenos Aires. The Posada is very convenient to the subte (subway). There are a lot of great small restaurants and cafes in the neighborhood. Internet access was also good.

Our week-plus stay at Posada Palermo in February, 2007 was one of the most comfortable, friendly, and aesthically pleasing experiences in our 35 years of traveling.

Behind its 19th C doorway, the Posada unfolds with warmly colored, surprising elements that make you feel immediately welcomed (an internal garden with sleigh bench; a vaulting but cozy, art-filled breakfast room with music playing; a multi-leveled outdoor garden). Viviana, the owner and architect, designed each guestroom in a unique combination of Euro line and rich color to adapt the historical building (an old pasta factory with a classical façade). She and her daughter now live on the evolving upstairs level.

As several different returning guests affirmed to us, the Posada serves the most bounteous B&B breakfast in Buenos Aires. (And Viviana sends out for more if she thinks it’s not enough.) Tea, coffee and fresh water are always available beside the guestrooms in the tiny art-covered sitting area by the inside garden.

Even surpassing these features, was the friendliness and helpfulness of Viviana and her manager, Alejandro. No problem dropping off our luggage two days before our actual stay there. No problem finding us a nearby apartment for the night the Posada was filled by a frequently returning family. No problem letting us use the computer for email and information. No problem with us staying in the wonderful breakfast room way beyond breakfast time. They would join us at each breakfast and make sure we had all the information needed for the day, with local wisdom and suggestions thrown in.

We will surely return there on any trip to Buenos Aires.
