The room though comfortable and clean has very dated furniture, somewhat difficult to charge devices (no USB ports anywhere) and plugs in hard to reach places. Bed side table are tiny. The room smelled a bit musty and the TV had connection issues. One the plus side - the lobby area is great and the daily included breakfast was fantastic. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

This is a hotel with a personality -Evita Peron - of Lloyd Weber fame- stayed there a few years. Hotel is gorgeous, architecture, furniture, even the chairs in the breakfast area are leather. Very helpful staff. Just one block away from Alvear street with lots of shopping options for all wallets.

This is our second time staying at this lovely hotel, and we absolutely enjoyed it. Breakfast at Melia, accompanied by live music, is fantastic. Although they usually host it in the jazz room downstairs, it has temporarily been moved to the lobby on the first floor due to an ongoing construction project. While I understand this is only a short-term change, I wasn't very happy about having people with suitcases passing right next to my omelet during breakfast. Aside from that, our stay was wonderful. Thanks to the reception for arranging a welcome bottle of wine for us!
