Hotel was clean, well furnished, but staff were not very helpful, just tried to take advantage of you, like making reservations at higher prices to get comissikn, changing currency well below the going rates, not helpful at all with the baggage, not helpful finding a taxi. Etc.

On my departure day, there was an electrical storm with heavy rain. I had tried phoning for a taxi to take me to Ezeiza Airport, but all lines were busy. At Check-Out however the Receptionist and Doorman organised a taxi for me. Exceptional service.

Many thanks due to the Receptionist for his assistance in recovering my luggage, after it was delayed arriving with me from London. Good banter with him regards Glasgow Celtic v Racing Club games in 1967 Intercontinental Cup. He still has Celtic key-ring (maybe in recognition that the overall result was a complete injustice to football). This was my 9th visit to the Bisonte Palace, and have yet to be disappointed by the friendliness and attention provided by the staff. Already looking forward to my next visit!

DO. NOT. STAY. HERE
Check in was awkward and made me, as a solo female traveler, uncomfortable — that should have been my first clue. I was shown to my room and realized that this was not the hotel for me. I don’t mind basic, but want clean. This place was disgusting. The beds looked like they were 50 years old, the bathroom had chunks of grout missing and black mold in most crevasses. Every instinct told me to get out, which I did. I have travelled all over the world, often solo, and this is the first time I’ve walked away from a hotel reservation. The rating on Hotels.com is crap. And to top it off, my credit card was used to try to buy high end sneakers online shortly after, something that could only be done with all of the personal info I provided at check-in. You do the math.

Very disappointing
When I went to check in at Bisonte Palace, I was vaguely informed that something had happened to the room or the floor (or something) and that I would now be staying at their sister hotel, Hotel Bisonte a few blocks away. I was given money for a taxi and put in a taxi to take me there. Unfortunately, the taxi dropped me off at the wrong hotel and then proceeded to leave after I had already paid him! So I ended up using my own money to pay for another taxi to take me to the right hotel. Thank god for the kind employees at the Waldorf Hotel who helped me get sorted out! Upon entering the Hotel Bisonte, I was quite underwhelmed. The staff was less than welcoming (let alone apologetic for the hotel change inconvenience) and the entire hotel could use a major facelift. The room was loud from traffic and the walls are thin. The tile in the shower seemed dated and dirty which certainly didn't make me want to get in there. The doors to the rooms did not shut quietly and slammed open so you could hear your neighbors with every coming and going. In general, it was just not a comfortable stay and I would not stay here again.

horrible
Have previously stayed at the Bisonte Palace and it was about 3.5 stars. But in the last eight years the rooms have deteriorated-carpets were filthy and you would automatically get upgraded to larger suites if you stayed more than 1 week. It is fine if you are just staying one night. It is more like a Motel 6 even though they call it a hotel.

Good value
Bisonte Palace Hotel is a good option if you want to stay in central Buenos Aires. It is clean and comfortable and the staff a very helpful. The room and the breakfast were good value. Probably the only downside was the Wifi which was intermittent and not really reliable from our room.

Not bad overall, but some of the procedures were a bit archaic - like having to have the bellman accompany you to your room upon check-in whether you want it or not. Also, they want fifteen minutes notice upon check-out so that they can check your mini bar. Like many hotels, they ask for a credit card scan and authorization for any incidental charges over and above the Expedia pre-payment of room and tax. This is expected. What was unexpected and a bit disconcerting was to have the desk clerk manually write down my full credit card number, expiry date, and three-digit security code on the authorization print-out. In any case, and in fairness to them, no charges have appeared on my account - it was just something I've never seen done before. The room was clean and relatively comfortable. However, there was a window with clear glass at the back of the tub in our room. (I expect this is not the case in all rooms.) You just needed to stay near the front of the tub while taking a shower unless you wanted to be seen. Good location near the Retiro district. Breakfast was quite good. If I had to stay there again, I could live with it, but I'd probably choose somewhere different given the choice.

The hotel was good, the breakfast buffet was very good. The room had a little leak at the toilet and the shower was missing one tile. I needed it to leave after the check out and they were very kind to keep my luggage and give me a safe for my documents and money.
