I would add that they should offer it in English, I had to translate it to my husband and kid. However, it was a great visual experience that no body should miss. Before or after the show you can see all the inventions in the second floor and try how they work, of course, once you understand how they work. If you live in BSas, and you haven't gone here, this is the moment, you will see how the universe works.

My only criticism, and the reason why my review is 4 stars is the lighting in some of the rooms is so bad that the glare does not allow you to see the paintings placed higher on the wall. Very disappointing for a museum of this caliber.

Don't let the long line streaming down the block fool you. Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, what I…read moreconsider to be Buenos Aires' answer to "most Met-equivalent museum in South America", is free to enter and the line moves quickly. Seemingly the sole reason for the line is the ticketing process during which you're asked if you'd like to make a donation. There's no pressure and you'll be handed a ticket whatever your response, but the process does slow the surge of guests into the place and that's probably a good thing. This is a very popular, excellent museum. I'm a slow and methodical viewer of art and when I say that I tired of looking at everything before running out of things to look at you get an idea of the size of the collection. I began upstairs, where the more modern collection resides then moved down to the main floor with an extensive collection of, well, everything that wasn't up on the second floor. Wanting to at least see the whole place I moved on to a ground floor extension that housed an Egypt-centric exhibit heavy on Spanish text which I couldn't read. No worries; my attention span was shot. Days later, friends we were traveling with came here. There was still a line but they - with differing tastes than me - confirmed the same findings: this is a great museum. I'm not certain what days and times are least attended but if you're not a fan of crowds you might consider such a question before a visit as the Argentinians seem to know what you're waiting to discover: this place is a treasure.

My wife and I took a half day tour of some of the important sights including the Casa Rosado, Recoletta Cemetery and ending up at this museum. I am sure what originally peaked my interest was a Broadway Show about her but there was so much more to this amazing story of how she captivated a country and was both loved and despised at the same time. The part that wanted to focus on was the love. Even the building this museum is housed in was a foundation of her foundation to house and educate the poor until they could find alternative living. Giving women the right to vote and becoming a voice for those who needed one. Yes, this also becomes a massive game of politics and this woman totally captivated me even though I learned things about her that did not sit well with me. Translation for me was not an issue as we had our own guide. I did not understand why the clothing could not be photographed. There are plenty of pictures of it right here in Yelp and you would think that there are also thousands of photos while she was actually wearing this clothing. This well maintained museum was a great final stop on my personal "Evita Trail." She was clearly captivating, knew how to speak to a crowd (remember, she was an actress,) and will last in the history book for a long, long time. KUDOS to the team at Museo Evita and the private guides who travel with you.

I am a big fan of Evita and her story. As such, I didn't want to miss this museum…read more It was interesting, but a little disappointing. I think the problem, to be fair, was a lack of English translations for many of the signs. However, I was expecting more. The collection was mostly of her clothing, and a few news reels. In short, it's worth seeing if you are a huge fan--but I wouldn't necessarily go too far out of your way to see this.

Above all its location in palermo neighborhood is great and the staff is friendly and professional. Loved the quick check in check out process. and the price value is amazing. The only reason why it is not a 5 star is just because it doesn't offer breakfast choice and tiny pool as the brother property does. But nothing else. There is a nice breakfast place just across the street. Still great value and I'll be back every chance I get. Trust me it is amazing value!

Have stayed at multiple hotels in Buenos Aires and have stayed at this one for my last four stops. Two more trips planned in the next couple months and I plan on staying here again. Three favorite things: -The bedding -Walkability of the area -The staff

They have an open concept bathroom with separate tub and shower. Very unique with a great layout. The location of this hotel is excellent. You can get to all the me tourist attractions in a 10-15 min walk max. Most places are a 5-10 min walk. Checkout is at 1030am, but I asked for 11am and they were ok with that, no extra charge. So you need your room key to enter the front door of the hotel, again to use the elevator, and a third time to enter your room. It's a little annoying but I get it...safety. There are 2 electrical plugs in the room that North American and European plugs fit. So you can charge your iPhone with your power block from America, awesome! The only real complaint I had is that the walls do not have soundproofing. All floors are hardwood or stone and if the person next to you is walking with shoes on, you will hear it in your room. If you're a light sleeper this will wake you up.

Pretty sure this hotel is haunted. I have no idea how this place got great reviews on Google, it…read moreshould be a zero star hotel. The lobby and doorman are nice. There is free breakfast in the mornings. The cleaning persons are friendly. That's about everything nice I have to say. We stayed in two different suites over a course of two weeks (we left to another city in the middle and came back to Buenos Aires). The first suite was okay, really clean but VERY old furniture. Everything felt like it was stuck in the 80s. The photos on Google are not accurate. The bathrooms are dark. Some of our lamps had yellow light bulbs and some had blue lightbulbs. All the appliances were very old. It felt like I was staying in a grandma's house. The beds are lumpy and uncomfortable. Our second suite was the one I had a real issue with. It was even OLDER with furniture that was falling apart. I did not sit on anything because everything was just so strange. My father and my little sister are both sensitive to...spiritual things and they both felt weird immediately upon stepping into the room. They did not stay the night because they were uncomfortable. I decided to stay one night with my boyfriend in the second suite and a lot of strange stuff happened. I won't go into details but we both checked out the next morning. I am not a believer in the paranormal, I'm the kind of person that laughs at all those "ghostly encounters" TV shows. However, I was pretty unsettled. We moved to a different hotel down the street. My dad has lived in this area for 50 years. Feir's Park used to be an apartment building, which explains the strange layout. I've been investigating this building online but I haven't found anything yet. Many places in Buenos Aires have a long history.

Pros: 1. Huge room 2…read more Our room had a beautiful balcony, albeit no views. 3. Breakfast available but not great, mostly carbs. The sausage and bacon was horrible and the eggs had no salt. Try the poppy seed cake though, that was good. Cons: 1. Shoddy construction in the room, the floors creaked near the bathroom - no counter space 2.Terribly slow internet, is this a joke 3. I guess the walls are thin because whenever someone is in the hallway and chattering (very often) or even just walking, you can hear every single thing in the room, including all the radio chatter of the service staff. This is especially problematic when your room is near the elevators, then it's a constant. 4. Short Uber ride from most attractions 5. Somehow they are very strict about when breakfast ends. As soon as you walk in, they are like - YOU KNOW IT ENDS IN 15 MINS. Well yeah calm down, and as soon as it strikes 10:30, all the staff descend to take away the food as soon as possible. Calm. Down. 6. Room service is okay, but their closing time is unreliable. Once they said they close at 11:30 and on another occasion they didn't have anything at 11...?! Overall, this is not a 5 star experience at all. More like 3.5 stars I would say. The overall feeling of the hotel is not very warm and welcoming...but it ticks the basic boxes.

Good - Location: Centrally located along main Ave 9 de Julio, a few blocks away from the Obelisk and with a 24-hour grocery store across the street. Plenty of Cafes and restaurants around the area. Average - Service: average at best. Staff is not rude but is very much straight to the point and lacking any genuine interest in your business or concerns. - Knowledge: Staff is not well informed on tour details and/or hotel surrounding. - Breakfast is nothing out of the ordinary, with bread, ham, and cheese served along eggs and drinks. Do not expect any gourmet foods here. Bad - Found bed bugs. - Tiny and claustrophobic rooms, beware of deceiving online pictures. - Squeaky old mattress with giant stains - Poor view - WiFi: only 2g is available in the room, but it is incredibly slow. We have been unable to upload any of our videos/pictures. - Bathroom: Broken shower door. Only half a roll of toilet paper in the bathroom upon check-in. Ball of hair in the toilet upon check-in. - Thin walls with doors connecting other guest rooms. I can hear my neighbor cough. - Only 1 outlet available in room. The other is behind the bed making it unreachable. I feel poorly for my companion as this was her first time in Argentina and she has had such a bad experience with this hotel. We will definitely not be coming back.

Before going in I asked if they took Visa and the waiter seemed to understand and nodded yes. Altho not very busy it took some time to get our food. My sister ordered a burger which she barely ate as she said it was full of gristle. It came with an egg on top that she said was rubbery and tasted as if it had been cooked the day before. I ordered a half chicken Florentine. It came with about 5 bits of spinach, but was otherwise dry and tasteless. She had also ordered a beer from the tap he'd recommended, but she said was watery and warm. When the time came to pay the bill I presented my Visa and he said no and indicated cash only. The total was 18,000 Argentinian Pesos, but he'd also written 25 on the top of the bill, indicating that would be U.S. currency. At the time the exchange rate was about 1,000 Pesos to the dollar. I even pulled out my phone and googled it and got the result of $20.46 and showed it to him. He said no $25. Since we didn't have local currency we paid it to avoid a scene, but would advise all others to avoid this place to avoid getting ripped off. I did give them 1 star as their potatoes were good, but that was it.
