    Not quite sure how you rate hotels but, this hotel looks stunning to me! Not too mention it's in (Puerto Madero) a gorgeous neighborhood of Buenos Aires! Cheers!

      The detailed score is at the end of the video. I gave it very high marks for all things related to design and layout- their (very) weak spot is their F&B. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

    Great video Kevin which made me decide on what hotel to stay for 5 days last week. My go to chain hotel were not an option, I/C was full for some of the days and Hilton was extortionately expensive for some reason. F&B is now excellent, maybe your experience was covid related? Much better value for money that the 4S and Park Hyatt which are considered the modern hotels. The flagship Alvear is not for me as it is too classic.

    Choque de culturas 💁‍♀️. Si voy a un hotel lujoso de Japón, no voy a esperar ver facturas o cosas que me gustan, sino algo tipico de Japón 💁‍♀️ mas el cafe .
    Es díficil contentar el paladar de todos o coincidir en gustos decorativos . En lo personal no he ido al hotel del video pero me parecio lindo y se veia muchas cosas ricas .

    • @tfft

      No espero comida de ningún país excepto Argentina. En comparación con la cocina en Argentina (y en ningún otro lugar), la comida en este hotel está por debajo del promedio en el mejor de los casos.

    Good review. Even my eyebrows twitched at the idea of a polo-shirt ban in an Argentinian hotel! BTW, I visited BA about 20 years ago, staying at the Claridge, which is still open. Know it?

    • @tfft
      @tfft  Před 2 lety +2

      The specific hotel, not too familiar but the area yeah very familiar. Plaza San Martin is one of my favorite parks in the city. Tomorrow’s review will be from a hotel closer to the Claridge. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

    Kevin, next time visit the Four Seasons, a beautiful property with a marvelous service. The price was too much.. 750 usd a night … even for us was expensive… and my wife is a surgeon 😂😂😂

    • @tfft

      Probably not the wisest choice for views, but I actually skipped it because I’d stayed there a couple times some 15 years ago. Beautiful property and love the mansion. Keep in mind though, if you pay in dolar blue cash the actual price equivalent you’d pay would be the published rate divided by two(ish) plus 21% tax. The price for this December would be around $480 all in.

    You captured the accurate exhausting thing about BsAs. I have empathy for the financial suffering due decades. But in tourism there's money to be made from way beyond their decades of collapsed economy.

    Me parece que te gusta criticar casi todo lo que es Argentino, si no te gusta te podés volver a tu país

      No digas tonterías. Hago críticas honestas, nada más, nada menos. La comida en este hotel es horrible, es una simple observación. Si estuviera haciendo lo que dijiste, no le habría dado al Hotel Palladio MGallery una reseña tan maravillosa. Tal vez infórmate un poco mejor la próxima vez.
