TsDaria: Good hotel with the great central location. A little bit threadbare. Too narrow sink in the bathroom, and a bit loudy because of generators outside the window. As i realised it's a common problem of small hotels in the city centre
Tucumán 451, C1049
From € 39
Guest User: It's always a pleasant surprise to get an upgrade! I got to stay in the Executive Suite, complete with a Jacuzzi and a fantastic view! Thank you so much for everything! I'll definitely be back.
Av. Roque Sáenz Peña 725, C1035
From € 87
Guest User: We got a low floor room facing inside, thus there was no view at all. You wouldn't want to open the window, which was opaque to ensure some privacy. Facing inside had an unexpected advantage, though, because you didn't get any noise from the pedestrian street out there, compared to the rooms facing outside. The room card didn't work, and the front desk re-programmed it twice. Even then you had to place the card for about 5 seconds before the door would unlock. Our room looked basic, but everything seemed to be there: wardrobe, safe deposit box, TV, small refrigerator, luggage rack, hair dryer, even reading lights above our beds. The location is, undoubtedly, very central and convenient with all kinds of shops and restaurants right there. In summary, if you want a basic bed/room on a budget, you are in the right place.

Ольга Малявчикова: What's great about this hotel is that you can walk to many attractions, or if not, it's a maximum of 15 minutes by taxi. I liked the comfortable bed and how clean everything was. As for breakfast, it was a real struggle for me. I'm not used to eating only bread and pastries for breakfast (though, judging by many hotels I've stayed at in Latin America, that seems to be the norm ☹️). I'd prefer eggs and something more substantial, but that's not available here. Otherwise, I have no complaints. The staff is very friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with anything you need. They also speak English, which is a big plus.
Bartolomé Mitre 1744
From € 36
elenaAI: The hotel is located in the city center, very conveniently. Check-in was quick and easy, breakfast was decent, and they even had scrambled eggs. Cons: The room was cold, even in summer. All my clothes smelled damp.
Ave Corrientes 1344 Esq. Talcahuano, Uruguay Y
From € 67
Guest User: Although majestically placed in the heart of the Microcentro, or perhaps relying on this sole fact, the staff was one of the rudest and less helpful I've seen in a hotel in this price range in Latin America. They refused to speak any other language other than Spanish, and when requested to speak slowly so we could listen through the porteño accent, they didn't. When asked about their room service, the answer was a dry ”scan the QR code”. When asked about what would be open (it was Christmas), they told us to ask around the street. Luckily, the people on the streets were far more warm and helped us get around the city better. The rooms were good and appropriately clean.
Lavalle 560
From € 45
Java Developer: The hotel is conveniently located in the center of Buenos Aires, close to the main attractions. The room is clean and includes a microwave, coffee maker, kettle, dishes, a TV, good Wi-Fi, and air conditioning with both heating and cooling. The only downside is the very small shower and toilet. There weren't enough towels for two people, and they weren't changed for three days. The hotel's central location makes it a bit noisy, but it didn't bother us. Overall, we were satisfied with our stay. It's a good option for the price.

Bariloche, the 'Switzerland of South America,' a hidden mountain and lake paradise in Patagonia
Many people visiting Argentina only visit Buenos Aires, missing out on Bariloche, a lakeside town known as the 'Switzerland of South America' 🏔️! Nestled at the foot of the Andes and surrounded by Nahuel Huapi National Park, it is a treasure of a travel destination at the northern tip of Patagonia, where snow-capped mountains, glacial lakes, primeval forests, and European-style wooden cabins intertwine. Hiking, boat tours on the lake, and forest strolls—every view is a soothing natural landscape! 🥹✨ 🚶♀️ I recommend the classic Circuito Chico hiking route! Stroll along the shores of Nahuel Huapi Lake, where the water is a clear, icy blue, and the Andes mountains stretch into the distance, with pine forests covering the hillsides 🌲. Photography tip 📸: The morning light is soft; use the coniferous forest as a foreground to capture the lake for layered, transparent water. Take the cable car to the Cerro Campanario viewpoint for a panoramic view of the entire lake district and the town—it is the best spot in the city for aerial photography 📷! Summer is perfect for kayaking and lakeside picnics, while in winter, this place transforms into a top-tier ski resort in the Southern Hemisphere, with snow-covered mountains and forests ⛷️! After exploring the wilderness, head back to the town center for a stroll 🚶. The peaked wooden cabins are full of Alpine charm, and the streets are filled with chocolate shops 🍫—Bariloche is known as the chocolate capital of Argentina! Visit an old shop to taste handmade chocolates paired with a cup of hot cocoa—sweet and rich 😋. The Sunday market at the Swiss immigrant village is also well worth a visit! Try the local specialty, Curanto (earth oven food), and experience the immigrant culture. There was also an unexpected surprise: I ran into two super cute puppies by an outdoor barbecue table 🐕🐕. The days in this snow-capped mountain village are just so healing! 📌 Travel tips: ☀️ November to March is summer, with comfortable weather, perfect for hiking and lake tours. 🕶️ The UV rays in the mountains are extremely strong; sunglasses and a sun-protective jacket are essential! 🚶♀️ The town is small and walkable, but for lake district attractions, I recommend hiring a car. The charm of Bariloche lies in the perfect fusion of nature and culture 🥰. You do not need to travel deep into the remote Patagonia interior to encounter snow-capped mountains, lakes, and primeval forests, or to taste handmade South American chocolate 🍫. With the Andean breeze blowing across the lake and the picturesque mountain and lake scenery, this is the unique romance of Bariloche 💕.
Argentina is incredible! A tour leader's secret pick | The gold standard of South America
If South America has a gold standard for beauty, it must be Argentina❄️. Having led tours across the continent for years, I firmly believe that Argentina combines three ultimate landscapes: urban romance, breathtaking glaciers, and the solitude of the "end of the world." It's the perfect first choice for your first trip to South America. Buenos Aires is the most European-style capital in South America🎻, with European architecture, street tango, exquisite coffee, and century-old bookstores, creating a rich artistic atmosphere. The city's pace is elegant and relaxed, perfect for strolling, taking photos, and experiencing the unique culture of South America. As a tour leader, I remind you: some areas in the city can be crowded, so please stay with the group while sightseeing and taking photos, and avoid wandering off alone. Patagonia is the soul of Argentina✨, and the Perito Moreno Glacier is incomparably breathtaking. In summer, glaciers calve frequently, offering spectacular views and comfortable hiking; in winter, it's pure, quiet, and has a sophisticated atmosphere. A key tip for my tour groups: it's extremely windy in the glacier region. Whether it's summer or winter, you'll need a windbreaker and non-slip shoes. The UV rays are also very strong, so don't skimp on sunscreen. Ushuaia—the romantic "end of the world"🌍, where mountains meet the sea and vast forests stretch out. Taking a boat trip to see seals, penguins, and seabirds is incredibly healing. Many guests think Ushuaia is hot, but it's actually cold and windy year-round, so be sure to pack warm clothes for all seasons. Argentine cuisine is a huge plus❗️ Top-tier steaks, wine, barbecue, and empanadas cater to every traveler's taste. The long journey across Patagonia involves a lot of driving, so as a tour leader, I strictly manage the rest schedule to ensure guests don't get fatigued from traveling. My sincere advice: If you want to see glaciers, lakes, forests, artistic cities, and the "end of the world," lock in Argentina. It is the most worthwhile destination in South America for an in-depth trip and one you won't regret.
Follow Divas Hit the Road to Argentina! From glaciers to the end of the world
The Divas Hit the Road cast visited Ushuaia, Argentina this season, bringing the romantic end of the world back into the spotlight. But Argentina's treasures go far beyond Ushuaia. From glaciers to waterfalls, and tango to steak, this is the ultimate South American travel destination. 🧊 Patagonia, witness the calving of a living glacier Perito Moreno Glacier is one of the few living glaciers in the world. A 70-meter-high ice wall stands above the lake, and you can often see huge chunks of ice calving and falling into the water—a sight so stunning that photos just don't do it justice. You can also strap on crampons for a glacier trek and step into a world of blue ice. 💦 Iguazu Falls, the world's most breathtaking water A collection of 275 waterfalls, it is one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature. The most spectacular is the "Devil's Throat," where mist often mingles with rainbows. Standing on the observation deck, you are completely surrounded by the roar of the falls. 🥩 Buenos Aires, the Paris of South America The capital of Argentina is known as the Paris of South America, blending European architecture with Latin passion. Visit the colorful houses in La Boca in the evening, enjoy an authentic Argentine steak paired with Malbec wine for dinner, and catch a tango show—this is the right way to experience Argentina. 🌍 Ushuaia, the end of the world from Divas Hit the Road The southernmost city on Earth; south of here lies Antarctica. You'll find king penguins, the End of the World Lighthouse, and a post office that reads "End of the world, where everything begins." Standing here, you really feel how vast the world is and how long life can be. Argentina is far away, but everyone who has been there says it's worth it. ✨ View full itinerary via the product card below

The real Park Hyatt Palace is located in the "Little Paris" of South America.
Hotel 🏨|Palacio Duhau Park Hyatt Buenos Aires Since it's the origin of my English name, two years ago, when I first set foot in South America, I didn't hesitate to choose the Argentine capital as my stopover. The Park Hyatt Buenos Aires, with its brand philosophy of "Luxury from the Heart," naturally became my first choice. · ——Report📃——— 【History💎】 The Park Hyatt first appeared in Buenos Aires, known as the "Little Paris of South America," as early as 1992, but was taken over by Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts 10 years later. 【Design🌟】 The hotel is located in the Palacio Duhau Palace, a palatial building with nearly a century of history 🏛️. Not only was the palace itself meticulously restored, preserving its original artistic decorations to the greatest extent possible, but a modern tower was also added next to it, forming a complex of the historical Palacio Duhau Palace and the modern Posadas Tower. 【Lobby🛎️】 The hotel reception is located on the first floor of the Palace Wing. Unlike traditional luxury hotels, it lacks a grand lobby and instead features two small reception desks. The service was quite good; staff promptly offered welcome drinks, and check-in was quick. 【Public Areas🛋️】 While the lobby isn't particularly spacious, its layout is quite elegant, with numerous artworks displayed throughout. The modernly renovated public areas feature well-placed furniture, and the relatively private conversation areas are spaced far apart, resembling a reception room in a classical palace. 【Guest Rooms🛏️】 The hotel has 165 guest rooms and suites, with only 23 in the Palace Wing. Most are located in the Tower Wing, with basic rooms ranging from 40-50 square meters. During this stay, we were assigned a 72-square-meter Garden View Suite, which is essentially the "standard" room for Globalist guests at this hotel; most guests receive an upgrade to this room type. 【Restaurants🍴】 The Park Hyatt Buenos Aires is the only hotel in Argentina with two Michelin-starred restaurants, a testament to its culinary prowess🍽️. · ————— The Park Hyatt Buenos Aires, through a dialogue spanning centuries, allows every visitor to understand the unique charm of "Little Paris of South America" amidst luxury and comfort, history and modernity, vibrancy and tranquility.
Buenos Aires: In the southernmost "Paris of South America," witness a soul-stirring street tango 💔 In-depth travel guide 🍷
#February Destinations 2026 Buenos Aires is a city of twilight. It possesses the elegance of Paris, yet is draped in a melancholic cloak unique to South America, tinged with a touch of decadence. The air is perpetually filled with the aroma of grilled beef (Asado), the richness of red wine, and the salty sea breeze blowing from the Río de la Plata. The people here are passionate yet not frivolous; their pride is hidden in the creases of their impeccably tailored suits and in the shadows of the weathered European-style buildings. 🎭 La Boca: A Colorful Epic of the Slums Walk into Via Caminito in La Boca. The houses here are painted in vibrant shades of red, yellow, blue, and green—originally the result of impoverished sailors haphazardly painting with leftover ship paint, now becoming the city's most vivid backdrop. But La Boca is not just colorful; it is also painful. On a dilapidated wooden floor at a street corner, a man and a woman in dance costumes dance to the mournful melody of a bandoneon. Tango was never born for performance. It originates from the loneliness of Gypsies, sailors, and wanderers—a dance of mutual comfort in poverty and solitude. The almost suffocating closeness of bodies, the sharp kicks, and the resolute sorrow in the dancers' brows will make you understand: Tango has always told two stories—dignity and heartbreak. 📚 Ateneo de Manila Bookstore: Flipping Through Time in a Theater If you want to see the most elegant side of this city, you must visit Ateneo de Manila Bookstore. This bookstore, converted from a century-old theater, still retains its ornate gold leaf carvings, dark red velvet curtains, and grand domed murals. Bookshelves wind their way along what was once the audience seating, while the stage has now become a café. You can sit in the center of the stage, order a glass of Argentina's famous Malbec, and watch the people around you reading quietly. In Argentina, reading is never a luxury, but an everyday occurrence. This deeply ingrained civilized spirit creates a captivating tension with the wildness of the streets. 💡 Trip Avoidance and In-Depth Survival Guide Safety First: The La Boca district has a relatively complex security situation. It is recommended to visit during the day and stay within the main tourist areas. Always keep valuables on your person. Food Recommendations: Argentine steak portions are impressive; the classic Bife de Lomo cut is highly recommended. Locals typically have dinner after 10 PM, and the nightlife goes on quite late. 📷 Key Shooting Spots and Master-Level Photography Guide 📍 Close-up of People at the Colored Corner of La Boca Shooting Spot: Find a spot where two walls of different colors meet. Parameters: 35mm street photography lens|f/2.8|1/250 sec Shooting Techniques: Capture the moment of a street dancer against a highly saturated background. In post-processing, slightly reduce the vibrance and increase shadow contrast to create a retro, cinematic feel. 📍 Symmetrical Composition of Ateneo della Signoria Bookstore Camera Position: Centered on the second or third floor, overlooking the entire theater-bookstore space. Parameters: 16–35mm ultra-wide angle | f/8 | ISO 400 Shooting Technique: Utilize the theater's curved lines and red curtains as a frame to create a dramatic, symmetrical composition, capturing the grandeur of the architectural space. #FebruaryDestinations2026

Enjoy summer and double the celebrations in Iguazu, Brazil during the Chinese New Year!
In mid-February, vibrant Brazil will welcome its grandest festival of the year—Carnival. The Rio Carnival and the Iguazu Carnival will take place in succession! Coincidentally, this year's Chinese New Year holiday (February 15th to 23rd) also coincides with this. When the Southern Hemisphere's summer meets the Eastern New Year, a "double celebration" spanning half the globe is quietly unfolding. If you're still looking for a "must-go" reason, these travel inspirations prepared by the Iguazu Tourism Board will surely tempt you! 01 Truly Relax and Rejuvenate in Nature If travel is about recharging, then Iguazu (Foz do Iguaçu) is undoubtedly the best "recharging station." It not only boasts the world-famous Iguazu Falls, but is also home to the Atlantic Rainforest Reserve and Iguazu National Park, one of South America's largest primary forests. Here, you can hike deep into the rainforest to explore native wildlife; you can also choose outdoor experiences such as cycling, abseiling, and skydiving to feel your adrenaline surge; for a closer connection with nature, try swimming beneath the falls or quietly feeling the awe-inspiring roar of the water on the viewing trails; if you slow down, an encounter with wildlife can be the gentlest surprise of your journey. 02 Exploring One of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World Iguazu Falls is rated as one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Experiencing the awe and wonder of nature up close is an experience that no picture or video can replace. 03 Rejuvenate in the Falls' Waters Some say that waterfalls have the power to cleanse the body and mind. And when you actually stand beneath Iguazu Falls, feeling the splashing water and the instant coolness enveloping your body, you'll understand that this statement is not an exaggeration. Within Iguazu National Park, the Macuco Safari is one of the most popular and unforgettable activities. The journey begins with a ride on an eco-trolley through 2 kilometers of rainforest, where you can admire lush vegetation and listen to birdsong. Next, a professional bilingual guide will lead you on a 600-meter hike deeper into the jungle, where you'll encounter exotic wildlife. The most anticipated part of the trip is transferring to a mini-train to reach the Iguazu River dock, where you'll board a twin-engine speedboat and plunge straight into the heart of the falls, welcoming the "waterfall bath" and a fresh start to the new year amidst the roaring water and spray! * Waterfall Tips: The waterfall viewing platform is well-equipped with lockers, a souvenir shop, restrooms, and changing rooms. It's recommended to prepare quick-drying clothing, a waterproof bag, and a raincoat in advance to travel light and fully enjoy this refreshing experience. 04 Exploring One of the Seven Wonders of Modern Engineering If you want to add a touch of "technological awe" to this natural journey, then the Itaipu Dam (Itaipu Binacional) is definitely worth a special trip. Hailed as one of the seven wonders of modern engineering, Iguazu straddles Brazil and Paraguay and is one of the world's largest clean and renewable energy power plants, providing a stable and continuous power supply to both countries year-round. 05 Immerse Yourself in the Charm of a Cultural Crossroads Iguazu's charm lies not only in its waterfalls and forests. As a key city at the tri-border area of Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay, it is itself a crossroads of cultures. You can awaken your ecological awareness amidst natural landscapes, or visit cultural landmarks such as the Omar Ibn Al-Khattab Muslim Mosque and the Chen Tien Buddhist Temple, experiencing the beauty of religion and architecture and creating unforgettable memories. 06 Savor the Culinary Delights of a Tri-Border Region A trip is incomplete without a culinary adventure. Located at the intersection of Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay, Iguazu itself is a cross-cultural culinary table. From the enticing aromas of food trucks wafting through the streets to local favorites and upscale restaurants in hotels and resorts, diverse culinary experiences coexist harmoniously here. 07 A Trip to Three Countries! When visiting Iguazu, it's hard to miss the iconic Marco das Três Fronteiras (Tri-Border Marker). Located at the crossroads of Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay, it boasts over 400 years of history and is one of South America's most famous and representative border landmarks. Standing here, you can clearly see the confluence of the Iguazu and Paraguay Rivers and enjoy panoramic views of Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay simultaneously. The site is well-equipped with souvenir shops, a children's playground, snack stalls, and the Cabezza de Vaca restaurant, making it a comfortable and relaxing destination whether you visit during the day or at night. 08. Step into the World's Largest Macaw Aviary For a close encounter with nature, the Brazilian Bird Park (Parque das Aves) is a must-see—nestled in the lush Atlantic rainforest, it's the world's only institution dedicated to protecting this rich bird ecosystem. Spanning approximately 16 hectares, the park comprises restored native forest and a large number of native tree species. More than just a tourist attraction, it's a natural classroom integrating ecological conservation, scientific research, and public education. Along the park's trails, information boards provide detailed information on the habits and conservation status of different bird species, making the visit both educational and engaging. The park is home to approximately 150 species and over 1400 birds and butterflies. Its four open-air aviaries, especially the macaw aviary, are particularly impressive. 09. Relax and Rejuvenate at a Stunning Resort Hotel A perfect vacation wouldn't be complete without comfortable accommodations. Iguazu boasts a diverse range of hotels and resorts, from five-star luxury hotels to comfortable accommodations at great value, catering to different budgets and needs. Most hotels here are conveniently located in the city center and along the Avenida das Cataratas (Falls Avenue), with options even within Iguazu National Park. For first-time visitors to Iguazu, one significant advantage is the city's average distance from the city center to major attractions: approximately 15 kilometers. This makes planning trips to the falls, the tri-border marker, and the Itaipu Dam very easy. 10. Seeing the Three Countries at the River Confluence If Iguazu on land is captivating enough, a trip by water offers a completely different perspective. During Carnival and Chinese New Year holidays in Iguazu, consider a River Tour. Cruise along the Iguazu and Paraná Rivers to experience the unique charm of the tri-border region from different angles. Along the way, you can see the Friendship Bridge connecting Brazil and Paraguay, and the Fraternity Bridge spanning Brazil and Argentina. 11. Reliving Classic Moments and Childhood Fun Besides nature and adventure, holidays also call for a touch of relaxation and childlike fun. Iguazu has prepared many surprises for this "return to childhood" joy. At Wonder Park Foz, Movie Cars, inspired by classic Hollywood movies, brings legendary cars and motorcycles from the silver screen to life. Equally popular is the Dreams Park Show. At the Dreamland Wax Museum, you can "stand in front of" over 115 historical figures and global icons; Wonders of the World uses exquisite miniature models to condense landmarks from around the world into one place; in Dinosaur Valley, over 30 lifelike dinosaurs are a favorite among families; and the biggest contrast to the Brazilian summer is the Dreams Ice Bar—you can sit on ice benches and experience a -15°C winter wonderland. 12 Experience the vibrant nightlife of the tri-border city If you're someone who enjoys a truly immersive travel experience, then Iguazu's nightlife is not to be missed. The city boasts numerous themed bars and unique restaurants, adding a distinctive charm to the evenings. For travelers who genuinely want to "step into the city," nightlife is often the most authentic cultural experience. By day, you'll feel the awe of nature amidst waterfalls and rainforests; by night, you'll experience the unique energy and inclusiveness of this tri-border city amidst lights, music, and crowds.

We purchased the option for the VIP only show which gave us great seats and what seemed to be unlimited drinks, plus a couple of bites to eat. The show was centrally located which meant we could walk to and from our hotel, saving time on transportation. The show was well choreographed and had some excellent dancers. The passion, athleticism and skill of the dancers was evident throughout the show. It was a very well choreographed dance but also a fantastic show and definitely a must see while in Buenos Aires.
coo***anLa Boca
La Boca is a very bright and colorful place known for its vibrant houses, street tango, and passion for football. There many funny buildings there.
LisliskaThe obelisk
This obelisk is absolutely huge and amazing. Obviously must visit and take some photos in the central partof Buenos Aires.
LisliskaPlaza de Mayo
Argentina's Plaza de Mayo, this square is surrounded by some local old buildings, which looks very charming, and there are also many attractions around it. If you come here to play, you must visit here.
徐徐霞客RrPuerto Madero
Puerto Madero is my favorite area of Buenos Aires for a relaxed walk by the water. It combines modern skyscrapers, old docks, restaurants, and the famous white Puente de la Mujer, which looks especially beautiful at sunset. Be sure to stroll along the waterfront, visit the museum ships, and take photos by the bridge - it’s one of the most photogenic spots in the city.
LisliskaRecoleta Cemetery
Recoleta Cemetery is one of the most prominent attractions in downtown Buenos Aires. It is the final resting place of many political figures, historical heroes, and business tycoons. The tombs, each with its own unique style, resemble a European architectural exhibition. The cemetery also contains numerous sculptures erected by the families of the deceased, evoking a sense of remembrance and mourning. Respect for death is a unique aspect of Argentine culture; they believe that only at the end of life can a person truly and completely reveal the meaning and value of their existence. The tomb of Eva Perón, the revered First Lady of Argentina, is located at number C7-88. This is arguably the most prominent spot in the entire cemetery. Although its location, scale, and appearance are not particularly special, and it can even be a little difficult to find without asking staff, it attracts a constant stream of visitors every day, demonstrating its enduring appeal.
中西南北东Buenos Aires Metropolitan Cathedral
The cathedral was originally quite simple and has undergone several renovations. The current building is a synthesis of various architectural styles, including the 18th-century central aisle and dome, and the 19th-century neoclassical facade; it lacks a bell tower. The interior preserves precious 18th-century sculptures and altar decorations, as well as rich Neo-Renaissance and Neo-Baroque ornamentation. On the right side of the cathedral lies the tomb of San Martín, the Latin American national hero, topped with a bronze reclining statue of him. Originally, soldiers in World War I red and blue uniforms, holding guns, kept vigil there, but this has not been restored since the pandemic.
中西南北东Av. 9 de Julio
Avenida 9 de Julio, like a majestic urban artery, runs through the heart of Buenos Aires. With 14 lanes running in parallel, it is one of the widest streets in the world, demonstrating Argentina's heroic spirit. The towering obelisk stands in the center, piercing the sky. It is not only a city landmark, but also engraved with the glory of national independence. On both sides of the avenue, classical buildings from the colonial period stand side by side with modern skyscrapers, where European style and South American enthusiasm blend together. The shuttling traffic and pedestrians give the street endless vitality; when night falls and the lights come on, neon lights and car lights interweave into a river of light, and the obelisk is more solemn and majestic under the light. This is not only a major transportation route, but also a vivid epitome of the symbiosis of Argentine history and modernity, carrying the city's memory and future.
