The hotel itself was very nice and clean, the buffet breakfast was excellent, BUT someone took a brand new polo shirt from my room. When I called to make the claim no one wanted to deal with this matter. I've noticed that another traveler also made a comment on this website about having things taken from their room. It's too... more

Altough I am from Buenos Aires, my boyfriend wanted to surprise me for our anniversary an he chose a wonderful promotion offered by this hotel. We spent a romantic night at the Rochester Classic suite and we found no troubles at all. On the contrary, the service was great, the room was very clean, cossy and comfortable. They kept their... more

The hotel is insecure, someone opened your room, robbed money and clothes. A Hotel that doesn't guarantee security doesn't deserve your money. more

When we arriverd, they sent us to an old and dirty room, totally diferent from web photos. Me and my husband complained and after one hour we were moved to a "renewed "one. This second room seemed to be okay, until we notice that there was mold in the walls, the window was broken and there was hair in the... more

Rochester Classic has five different room categories, all of that are renowed . Rochester Classic is a 4 star hotel and we deal the better price in the market in our category, the hotel mention here is a 5 star hotel and the price and services are very different , we can´t offer the same.

The hotel is only ok. The localization isn't great, avoid the rooms in the front of the building if you want to have some peace, mainly in the weekends. If you have a car, avoid this hotel, it is hard even to get in and off because there is no place to stop in the street. I expected a great... more

Rochester classic is on down town, 2 blocks from Florida Street and half block from Lavalle Street. Rochester Classic has five different room categories , all of that with double window. Same rooms are in the front of the building and other ones are in the back, the room assignations depends on the guest request at the moment to make...

I DO NOT recommend Rochester Classic. Other than the good location and great breakfast, this is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in my life. Despite the negative reviews on Tripadvisor, I decided to book a 4 nights stay through Expedia which beside the lower rate, also offered a free lunch and a free facial spa. Upon check-in, I... more

Management response from

In order to use the service of lunch and facial spa our Expedia passengers must present at reception the booking confirmation voucher that the site gives at the moment the reservation is generated, it is the receptionist´s duty to attach this document to the bill of accommodation as to justify to authorities the use of this service. This is why...

Maybe I'm not used to a European Style Experience, but everything is very tiny. There's limited room to work, in fact the desk isn't even a desk, it's more of a small table. Internet Access - If you want internet in your room, it's an extra charge per night, and they have to give you this huge modem to drag... more

Rochester Classic has five different room categories, the only ones that have working desk are suites or the departments for long stays. Internet service in the room has an additional charge of us$9 dollars per day and the signal goes through electricity by a modem. If you do not want to pay for the use of Internet service in your...

We booked our stay through our credit card points system. We were promised free lunch for each person, each day of our stay. When we arrived we discovered the promotion is actually for one lunch during the entire stay. Rather than being able to choose from the actual menu at the restaurant, we were given our choice from two options:... more

Management response from
Ventas, revenue manager

The lunch promotion per person consists on a fixed menu and has 2 options for main menu, dessert and coffee. The main dish varies between meat, Chicken, fish and pasta. This promotion is served in the breakfast room of the Rochester Classic Hotel, unlike à la carte menu which is served in the restaurant of the hotel (Winnery). Our suites...

I stayed here March 2008. Traveling alone on a business trip, I had reservations for another hotel, but was led to this one by the "remis" shuttle driver who said that it was more "cost effective" than the other nearby hotel I was booked at. I took his word for it. Location was very good, right in the middle of... more

Let me start by saying that I am generally easy to please. The GOOD: the breakfast. Plenty of fresh fruit, cereals, yogurt, pastries, breads, sausage, juices, coffee and a guy making eggs/omelets. Must try the chocolate covered churros...yum-o! The hotel is close to the metro and Calle Florida (big shopping street). Overall the hotel was a reasonable price for what... more
