Anselmo Buenos Aires, Curio Collection by Hilton

Amazing Hotel and Event Experience! I recently stayed at this hotel and was blown away by the experience. We arrived on a Sunday during the San Telmo fair, which added a charming touch to the already beautiful exterior. However, nothing prepared me for how spacious and well-designed the interior was! The service was absolutely fantastic. The entire team was attentive, and I want to give a special shoutout to Laura and Alejandro, who went above and beyond to make our stay incredible. Our company also used the hotel to host a corporate event, and it was the best venue we've worked with in years. Everything from the catering and meeting rooms to the conference hall, common areas, dinners, and floral decorations was perfect. The hotel truly exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend this hotel for both stays and events – you won't be disappointed!

After nearly a day of flying, the service and experience we had upon arrival was fantastic. We were allowed to check in early, and had a late check out. The complimentary breakfast was exactly what we needed before another day of traveling. The new addition of the roof top pool was a pleasant surprise. Bruno was very attentive, getting us towels and drinks while we enjoyed the pool and views. We hope to return someday!

A very nice, cozy boutique hotel in a great location. Very friendly and helpful staff from the check in toll the check out. Our room wasn't very big but it was nice and clean. The bed was very comfortable and the pilolows were good. We would definitely stay here again.

But the people who are at the reception do not have a cordiality! I am a diamond at Hilton, and if you do not want to offer water, in the room there were no water bottles either! The rooms are good, but the bathroom is along with the room! but the place itself is beautiful! The restaurant is also bonzer, the location is great! In the square there are always fairs and some tick dances.

This is a strange hotel for a HILTON. The front meets you with a flat black paint - creepy dark NO SIGN façade. You go in to find a very dark front desk area with no help with bags. Your room down a really dark hall way is less that 240 square feet with a king size bed that is very uncomfortable and old. No room to walk around. The shower has a floor of PVC deck boards. There is a sink in the middle of the room made of old counter top pieces glued in a square and the plumbing was installed by an amateur. There is no back wall behind the sink, just a little square piece of old counter top. 4 nights in this hotel was torture. The rooms were all the same according to the front desk grumpy middle aged lady that always said NO to everything we asked. You woke up to a concrete ceiling unpainted and no baseboards looking unfinished and putting your feet onto grungy old carpets. Really bad customer service except when you said you wanted to exchange US dollars. The free breakfast was the same as every hotel we stayed at in Argentina except this one charged you | $3US for 1 egg and $5US for an omelet. This is NOT a modern hotel as advertised. |It reminded one of a very old HOSTEL. The park across from the front of the hotel was a Antique junk market with SAD people selling their family heirlooms to make some money to eat. It was there everyday which made it hard to pick up our sight seeing guide because the street were blocked to the hotel. We have travelled and lived all over the world, this was the strangest HILTON hotel or hotel that we have every stayed in. It was definitely a reflection of the people of Buenos Aires, but not the reflection of the people outside of Buenos Aires.

Weird hotel with some great things and negatives. On the plus side, the location is great, in the heart of San Telma with its quirky shops and squares. Note, if you arrive on Sunday there is a great market in the plaza. The hotel is painted black and has a nice lobby. The staff are alright. Some speak English and some don't. If you ask them something they'll help, but they're not proactive. The restaurant is in a central courtyard inside the hotel. Good setting. Breakfast is below average. The room had too few outlets. They also do not put a fitted sheet on the bed and there is not a mattress pad. The mattress is cheap and immediately exposed as the sheet shifts when sleeping. There are not any washcloths or hand towels in the bathroom which is oddly shaped. Honestly, would probably skip this place next time.

Is a bit old, but nice concierge and staff|It is clean and has an amazing position in San Telmo. We spend 2 days and then we came back another time… nice|Don’t get the breakfast, it doesn’t worth the value|Bed is comfortable and the view is calm.|Amazing experience with the position

We came to Buenos Aires in advance of a cruise to Antarctica. We chose this hotel, in this area, specifically based on reviews on different websites. We were not disappointed as this hotel is centrally located within the San Telmo area and if you like to walk, it’s walkable to many sites.||The staff were exceptional, and went out of their way to help with any of your needs. One thing that really impressed my wife and myself was that when my wife got sick, they had a doctor on call at no charge to us. ||Our room came with breakfast which included juices, milk, teas, cereals, yogurt, and fruit. They also had assorted cheeses with cold cuts, desserts, of course, and for our main hot dish, you could order off the menu, at an extra charge, or you can get their offerings of scrambled eggs, a ham and egg quiche square and usually roasted vegetables. All the food was excellent with my only problem being that the heating elements on their hot dishes did not work so well, and sometimes the food was cold.||Overall, a great location and great staff, and while there are many hotels, throughout many of the districts of Buenos Aires, this was a wonderful stay for us.

Cute hotel right on the square. Great for walking & exploring. Clean with helpful professional friendly staff who were proficient in English. There were 3 of us sharing room, so one had the pull out/cot bed which turned out to be surprisingly comfortable. Room spacious. Would stay again if in area. Be aware that on Sundays the surrounding streets are closed for flea market/antiques/whatever booths that are great fun -- but a taxi or car can NOT get to the hotel entrance. Ours dropped us off about 2 blocks away (with good instructions) -- the street is fairly level and we didn't have difficulty with luggage but if you had a lot of bags it might be difficult. On non-Sunday days, they can drop off/pick up right at front door.

Do not book this hotel if you are attempting to use your Hilton benefits or earn points via your Hilton Amex. I stayed here 7 months ago and I am still dealing with billing errors and duplicate charges and getting a response from anyone at the hotel is impossible. I booked my stay on Hilton.com. When I checked out, they charged my Hilton Amex. When I got home a couple weeks later and checked my account, the charge was showing Booking.com. Because of this, I didn't earn my bonus Hilton points or the quarterly credit. Thus began a 2 month dispute between Hilton and Amex where Amex said I didn't book directly with Hilton and Hilton said Amex was wrong. It finally was resolved to get my points, but I never received my quarterly credit. I think the hotel was doing some shady billing practices by charging via Booking.com because I only book direct. 5 months later, the hotel emails me stating that my charge was rejected so they billed me again. My original charge is still on my statement and I paid it off months ago. So I had to open a dispute with Amex showing the emails the hotel sent me and the proof that I paid them months earlier to get my money back. I have no idea what is going on with their billing and accounting, but it seems shady at best and a scam at worst. The hotel was fine actually and would've had a pretty good rating, but dealing with billing for 7 months is unacceptable and not worth doing business with them.

We stayed here at the start of our Argentina trip. Very well situated location and we enjoyed exploring the neighborhood. It's a nice looking design hotel of sorts but the rooms were not very comfortable. We tried to get our rooms changed because it was way too hot in our room but were told that no other rooms were available.

The place was pretty clean. Beautiful ambiance. The breakfast selection was just okay. The rooms are pretty small. Not sure if it's a cultural thing, but no fans in the bathroom. I felt like the concierge/front desk could have been a little more helpful. They were remodeling the gym when we got there, so that woulda been nice to know ahead of time as we probably wouldn't have stayed there. The location was nice though. Some tango and live bands each night for entertainment. Do NOT eat at the place right next door. Very expensive and food quality was very poor. Not sure the name of it but 1075 was the address. They even snuck in a silver wear charge. Never ended up going to the bar at the bottom level of the hotel, but it seemed like a cool area. I'd probably see what else is available in the area first, but I wouldn't be opposed to staying at the Anselmo again.

Gayle and I needed a place to stay between our arrival in Buenos Aires and travelling to Trelew early the next morning. I'm a Hilton Hhonors member and booked the Hotel Anselmo instead of the big Corporate Hilton located in Puerto Madero. I'm glad I did. The only disappointment is that the Plaza Dorrego (where the Hotel is located) was under refurbishment. Otherwise, this place was great. The San Telmo neighborhood location opened up lots of antique walking experiences, with Hotel staff being very good at providing shopping, restaurant, or any other recommendations we wanted. One big bonus is that we had to leave for the airport at 3:30 AM. At 3 AM, they had coffee and pastries waiting for us. I thought that the refurbishment of this historical space was impressive. Both Gayle and I enjoyed the Lobby, the wine bar/cafe area, and our rooms. WiFi was excellent, as was the shower and the comfort of our bed. Maybe I should say that another disappointment was having to leave too early, and not having the opportunity to linger longer.

Located right in the middle of San Telmo, it's the perfect location for the Sunday market. That's the huge market they have with tons of crafts, knick knacks, and all sorts of random stuff. Some stuff can be good souvenir items. Others, not so much. They also have some food booths as well if you're adventurous. If not, there were many other eateries around the hotel. They put us in a room where the AC didn't work. Although they were able to give us a room with a working AC later, I was wondering why they put us in the room to begin with knowing that the AC on the first floor wasn't working. Hm... strange. Maybe they thought we wouldn't use it? Idk...

Everything about this hotel was exceptional, from the stay, comfort of the room, staff, breakfast, I left more than happy with it all. Front desk does speak English but are more than happy to let you practice your Spanish if you want. It's in a busy square of San Telmo, with daily tango lessons for you to join or tango shows to watch. The rooms themselves don't offer much of a view, but that's ok as Buenos Aires is pretty large and spread out so not sure what the "money shot" hotel view woulda been anyways. You're better off staying in a central area. Very easy walk to area steakhouses and Casa Rosada. I did walk to Recoleta Cemetery as well, and it's doable but took an hour. They will call you a taxi if you request it. Would def stay here again if I'm back, and make sure you drink their fresh juices in the lobby!

I want to start by saying that my experience at this hotel was quite exquisite. It's an adorable boutique hotel in the middle of the historic section of Buenos Aires. I can't even find the words to describe the amazing staff that provided a superior level of service to me and my travel companion. Yasmin, Martin, & Juan , each individually provided recommendations on places to eat, places to visit, and were a true delight to speak with on a daily basis. These three people were clear factors in making our stay as first class and appreciated as it was. For anyone reading this review I encourage you to visit this hotel and meet these incredible people who are the front face of this fabulous hotel.

Stayed here for two nights on our way to Patagonia. The hotel is right on a plaza that had nearly 24/7 tango dancers. There is a bar/restaurant that serves coffee and cocktails in the plaza so you can have a relaxing drink and watch the dancers - great fun. The hotel was clean; comfortable and the staff was extremely helpful with directions, changing money and arranging for transportation when needed. Loved the place.

This is a great value hotel part of CURIO collection from Hilton. If anything location could be the not so great but a few blocks away from new area in Puerto Madero. Restaurant breakfast buffet and wine bar lounge are great for a quick start. I like the design and service was great. Room is good size for 1-2 people. On the small side but this is not a resort to keep you in the hotel room most hours. Bed is good size and so is shower restroom. Maybe some vanity shelf could help more space. I used the closet shelf. Nice size tv and gym is very basic. Likely all you could need but maybe a new design would be welcomed. The ambiance decor of the whole hotel is great. And the staff is A+. Close by are quick mart at gas station and plenty of restaurants and Starbucks local coffee shops and more in San telmo and in Puerto Madero. Rooms are quiet and great blackout curtains. Hest and ac is flawless. This is a newer hotel so still settling a bit. The center patio atrium is amazing for cold beer or wine or coffee tea. Few pieces I'd like hotel to check on is getting HD channels, LED is already there. Bring a pro to design gym better. Above all 5 stars are deserved for value, all you get for a great price and walking distance 3 blocks from amazing neighborhood.

My husband and I greatly enjoyed our stay at this modern, clean and comfortable hotel in the heart of San Telmo, a fun quirky artistic neighborhood that is well situated in Bueno Aires. The hotel is right on quaint Plaza Dorrego where free tango happens daily and where the famous Sunday antique market is based (don't miss that - it stretches for almost a mile down the street from the square!) There are many antique stores and boutiques in this area - as well as lots of street art and restaurants. It's also a short walk to the Puerto Madero, the area by the canal, which is basically an old industrial port that has been renovated into a fancy area with modern high end hotels, restaurants and paths along the canal. The hotel staff were INCREDIBLY helpful, and always courteous and easy to talk to. They went out of their way to accommodate our every need. The breakfasts (which were free due to our Hilton Gold status) were delicious with wonderful options including some of the best cheese I've had in a long time. The fruit was always incredible as well - and always hot items to choose from. Our room was one of the bigger corner rooms and was beautifully designed, great decor - and incredibly spacious. It was easy to sleep well there - very quiet and good blackout curtains. Our bed was very comfortable and the showers were hot. What more can you ask for? The hallways even smelled good (seriously it smelled faintly like a sophisticated men's cologne - very subtle, not overpowering at all). One of the best things about staying here was the restaurant/wine bar. This is a new hotel, and it seemed like people weren't yet fully aware of the absolutely delicious, gourmet offerings provided by talented Chef Dave Soady, who is an American expat from Washington DC. This is a hidden gem that needs to be discovered. The menu was INCREDIBLE, as were the food presentation and flavors. We were so impressed that we ate there three times during our one week stay - and we are the types who never eat in the same restaurant twice while traveling because we want to try as many different things as we can. The filet mignon was to die for, cooked to perfection and served with roasted brussel sprouts and a pumpkin puree that cannot easily be described. Delicious. We also tried the fabulous goat cheese and arugula pizza with squash sauce and tomato confit.... Wow. And then there was the warm brie cheese encrusted in polenta and served with honey and lavender drizzled on top. Had to have that appetizer twice. The other appetizer we tried, the warm braised endive salad with blue cheese and candied hazelnuts, was equally succulent. And my husband just about died when he tasted the banana tahini soup. He's still raving about that one! And of course they offer an excellent selection of wines, seeing that this is a wine bar. Our meals here easily rivaled top dining experiences that we've had in Paris, New York and London. Chef Soady is a true culinary artist. DO NOT MISS THIS RESTAURANT. Overall a great place to stay - we used points so can't comment on the cost, but I'm sure whatever the price is, this hotel is great value.

We went here during our new year vacation. Pros * Bang next to Plaza Dorrego which is an amazing location in San Telmo. Tango happens right at your doorstep on Sundays, and it is always bustling outside * Hilton has kept the place really neat. Nice lobby, nice staff who will help you get a taxi, help with language etc.. Most of the staff is english speaking. * The restaurant downstairs is really nice too ! They had some great wine and empanadas. Cons * Room size is small. This is something that might bother people if you are looking to stay in the room for a longer time. We were mostly out so we did not care. * There are not many other amenities here, like a pool etc.. The gym is also very very basic.

Perfect location right on Dorrego Square. We had an interior facing room overlooking the courtyard which was reasonably quiet. Staff were incredibly helpful, pleasant and accommodating. Rooms were modern, clean but bijou! On the basis that you are unlikely to spend any time in them with BA at your feet, that probably doesn't matter! The only negative was the low quality of the breakfast. Some of the fruit was old (wizened and boarding on rotten) and had obviously been sitting there a long time. The arugula salad was totally wilted. I'm not quite sure why some of the food was even laid out for guests it was in such poor shape. We gave up on the breakfast after heading down there twice and having to reject it and went to Coffee Town in San Telmo Market instead! For a boutique hotel owned by Hilton this is unacceptable but overall we would highly recommend the hotel for its location, friendliness of staff and cleanliness.

We did not have a good experience. The staff at the front desk Martín and Yasmin was incredible, they are both multi-lingual and were always pleasant when we came across them. The hotel was a great hotel in a prime location. However the maintenance dept never came to fix our AC we told them this 2 times from the room and at the desk when we left to dinner. When we came back it was 2 AM and we had to pack up and move rooms because no one stopped by to fix it. The restaurant staff can use some attitude tuning, they were slow and inattentive we waited 40 mins to be served and when we sat we literally did the waitress job by going into the restaurant and grabbing our own spoon, fork, and knife we had to ask for water 2x before we got it and our mixed drinks well they forgot those. Def. wouldn't stay again, however i was able to book at the Hilton Buenos Aires and they were magnificent 5* service from EVERY STAFF!!

Anselmo is right in the middle of a busy plaza so you're in close proximity to most things in the city. It is part of the Hilton chain, and is a bit small for a Hilton you would expect in such a large city. However, don't let the size fool you. They hotel is absolutely stunning. The staff is very helpful and do a great job with their recommendations. The found us the most amazing Tango show (Gala Tango - if you're interested) and did a great job coordinating the run. The restaurant is downstairs and they do also have a great breakfast/brunch. All in all, great location and great staff - highly recommend it!

I'll give this hotel four stars mainly for it's service and location. The hotel is done in a stylishly puritan way. The problem I have with it is that it already looks a bit worn. Details in our room weren't that nice, and the AC was barely working. Overall it looks nice, but do expect the feeling and smell of wood that got moist one too many times. The location is great for discovering the area of course, however, be aware at night if you're an obvious tourist. For first time visitors who plan to stay more than one night I'd recommend other parts of the city to stay in. Where the hotel excelled was the staff. Very friendly and with good recommendations (my wife is local and can tell - yes, you'll be sent to tourist highlights if you ask for it, but there are other recommendations available too). Overall, happy to have staid here!

It's always difficult to tell whether a selection is of quality and in a good location. We were pleased with the Anselmo being on the Plaza Dorrego in San Telmo. The nightly tango dancing demonstrations were a treat. Good restaurants within walking distance and plenty of local 'flavor'. The hotel was comfortable and the staff was friendly.

A- grade for our stay. Great friendly staff! Wonderful location! The free breakfast was yummy, we were told it was free for us because we were Hilton Honors Members, but I'm not sure if this is so? As the website I booked on said "free" in general. But regardless, very enjoyable hotel. Clean, modern, and elegant. Two downsides: Many intl flights arrive into EZE early in the morning. Wr arrived around 9am exhausted and had to wait till 2pm for a room. It was annoying, but can't get too upset over something that could (and does) happen at many hotels. Second downfall: there was a door in our room that led directly into the room next door. The woman staying in 201 was extremely loud (playing loud music and having sex with her male companion around 4am...) We could hear everything and it was ridiculous. Cant fully blame the hotel for this... but the singular door separating the two rooms is a downfall. Something should be done about this... or at least room 202 avoided. Unsure if the other rooms are the same as we were a corner room. Overall, good stay! IF you do come to Buenos Aires, I recommend taking a taxi downtown. Its by far the fastest and only cost $40 and you can pay USD ahead of time.

Great little boutique hotel smack in the middle of the older part of Buenos Aires, San Telmo. This is a brand new modern feeling hotel in a very historic part of town so the juxtaposition of a new hotel with old feel oddly enough works well. The rooms are quite small but do the job. No real perks to the hotel, so don't expect lotions, spas, pools, gym etc. They say they have a gym but it's a sad room with 2 machines. This no frills hotel aside from having a great location has really really great front desk staff. Flavio and Camila were the best, super attentive, friendly and professional. They helped us out a bunch with all our requests and questions. Cleaning staff wasn't overly friendly but wait staff at the wine bar and during breakfast were great! All in all a nice little gem whose young and friendly staff really make it shine.
