“Great small hotel, fantastic location”
Hotel in very nice. Built in the 1700's facilities evidence great maintenance. Rooms are ample for Parisian standards, very clean and quiet. Sitting on the Ile Saint-Louis it has an unbeatable location. Restaurant next corner and cheese store across the street should not be missed
“Great location in Recoleta”
The hotel was located in Recoleta, right next to the cemetary and excellent restaurants. The view from our room was amazing! The hotel is older, but very clean and quiet (away from all the traffic noise). Highly recommend the market in the park on weekends. There is free internet access in the lobby, a business center, and air conditioning. The breakfast included hot items like eggs and bacon. This hotel exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend it.
“Not the best !!”
Great location and I think the food was okay.The internet was very weak and slow, the room was bad. Carpet was worn out and badly stained the bed was leaning to one side. We moved and did much better for the same price.
“Would Not Stay Again”
While this hotel is conveniently located within walking distance of shops, restaurants and the Recoleta Cemetery, I was not impressed with the room or the service. The breakfast was nothing special, but then again it's free, so what can you expect. The room that we stayed in was not as clean as I would expect from a large 3 1/2 star hotel. Being so close to the cemetery was also somewhat creepy. The hotel does offer free internet use which is nice when you are traveling abroad and have no cell phone service. If I were to travel to Buenos Aires again, I would splurge and stay at the Hotel Alvear a few blocks away. If you do stay at Hotel Etoile, do not miss having a meal or coffee at the Cafe Biela right down the street.
“Fair price, great localtion, poor service”
The neighborhood is great !!! you can walk safe anytime, the restaurants are very good. The hotel is very good. My only concern was the hotel restaurant where I dont like the food and the room service that always delays when I ask something during my stay.
“Very good hotel”
I stayed in the Etoile for two nights initially which I extended to five nights. The first two nights were in a room that looked out on the hotel's backyard; this is an uninspiring view but not unpleasant-- you see other people's balconies and washing, but at night it is still quiet and peaceful. But the real treat is on the other side, where you look out on the Recoleta cemetery. I moved to a very large room (suite; they offered the same rate but upgraded me), and had a splendid view of the cemetery and the river in the distance, even the Newberry airport. The first two nights were in a room that was fine; but the upgraded suite had better lamps, was much larger and had even a larger bathtub! I recommend the hotel very highly for the quality of the rooms, the pleasant and very helpful staff (excellent assistance for every request made), and the convenience of the location. I never ate in any of the restaurants near the hotel-- they tend to be very touristy but found it a good base to explore the city.
“The Perfect Spot”
The location and staff at this hotel were wonderful. For a medium priced hotel it had all the comforts that we needed and you can't beat it's location. You step out the front door to the famous cemetery and wonderful outdoor cafes and lots of people. We loved it.
“Etoile- a real gem in the Recoleta neighborhood!”
The Etoile Hotel staff is very nice, friendly and professional. I was traveling with my sister and ended up staying 8 days... in 3 different types of rooms. The standard room with 2 queen beds is the best- large room, nice windows, and big balcony. The executive king-bed room is very large (unusually large), so perfect for a couple who is traveling with their kids who can sleep on cots. The smallest room really is small, made smaller with big columns in the middle of the room and two twin beds. The breakfast is good with coffee, pastries, yogurts, milk and cereal, and eggs. The hours are decent as well, 7-10am during the week and 7-10:30 during the weekend. The pool upstairs on the 14th floor is a real secret with a great view of the Recoleta area and the bay. It is covered during the winter and during inclement weather during the summer. So, you can still swim during the summer even if storms come up. The lifting and cardio machines are old and in need of replacement. The internet in the room costs extra ($10/day) but is very fast, and we found worthwhile as the two computers in the lobby available were frequently being used. The hotel location is fabulous, opening right onto the plaza across from the Recoleta Cemetary. There are many good restaurants and upscale boutiques nearby. The cost was very reasonable for the type of hotel and location.
“not impressed”
the location of the hotel was the deal ....I think tthat is over price , the buffet is the same thing every mornig ......the staff some of them are unpolite in the front desk ,our room was on the 3 floor one night was to noise in the 4 floor, then I went down to the front desk and they didnt do nathing about it.
