It seems that Carolina and Karina, hostesses at the Gurda Tango Hotel, are becoming household names among travelers in Buenos Aires, and rightfully so. Their service and hospitality are top notch and make the Gurda Tango Hotel the best recommendation in San Telmo. The hotel is in a convenient area of the city - within walking distance to anywhere you'll... more

That you are comfortable in a somewhat non traditional setting. Its a boutique hotel in a very real sense. Located on the edge of San Telmo, a super great area for a tourist to see, its across from a park and enjoys an obscurity from the street. Once you ring the bell and are readmitted by one of the incredibly... more

This is a great place if you want to explore Buenos Aires, especially the San Telmo and La Boca districts which are within walking distance. We stayed there for five nights in July 2009 when we were in Buenos Aires on vacation. The rooms are very nice, clean and comfortable, the breakfast is really good (especially the omelettes!), and the... more

Where do you start with this hotel. The location is perfect - two of the best bars in BA are 30 yards away (Hippopotomo and Brittanico). It is opposite a park, the bus down town stops opposite, tango lessons and concerts at Turquata Tassa 50 yards away. The themed rooms are a delight, excellent showers and the most comfortable beds... more

We stayed 4 nights at this superb boutique hotel in San Telmo, one of the more traditional barrios in Buenos Aires. The outstanding factor here was the staff, Carolina and Karina could not have been more warm, friendly or hospitable - absolutely faultless. Great recommendations for restaurants and local sightseeing. The rooms were extremely comfortable (we stayed in both Pategonia,... more

This great little place exceeded our expectations. We had a 4-day stay at the Gurda and it was a truly lovely experience. The hotel is clean, stylish and very comfortable. The staff was really welcoming. They made us feel right at home and helped us with every need we had. We have travelled widely and had never met such warm... more

We stayed here about eight weeks ago, and I have literally felt guilty ever since for not taking the time to pass along our feelings about the phenomenal Gurda Tango and its staff. Many other commenters have hit the highlights, which I will echo: -- The building is a fantastic, unique monument to classic Buenos Aires, in great shape and... more

Gurda Hotel is impeccable in all regards. The location is ideal, being within walking distance of most areas. It is a gorgeous old building that has been completely modernized, elegantly decorated down to the last detail. The room was comfortable and very cosy. But the best are the staff who were accommodating with any request, specially Karina and Carolina who... more

A really nice change from large corporate hotels, great staff who go far beyond the normal level of service but perhaps a little on the pricey side for BA. That said, I enjoyed my stay very much, the breakfast was decent, wireless worked well, and I liked the rooms. It is an old house so the walls are perhaps a... more
