Facilities

Astoria Hotel is at Avenida de Mayo 916, in the Monserrat district, in the historic centre of Buenos Aires. Café Tortoni is a hundred metres away, the Cabildo and the Manzana de las Luces about five hundred, the Palacio Barolo and the Obelisk about six hundred, and Plaza de Mayo about eight minutes on foot. Piedras subway station is one minute away.

Rates at Astoria Hotel vary with the season, the day of the week and availability, and the room chosen also matters: doubles usually cost less than triples and quadruples. For specific dates you can check availability with our booking partners.

In general, the double rooms are the cheapest: the Double Room, without a balcony, and the Twin Room, with a balcony, both for two guests with a private bathroom, air conditioning and cable TV. The actual difference between them depends on the date, so it is worth comparing both with our booking partners.

The Triple Room takes three single beds or one double bed plus a single, and the Quadruple Room sleeps up to four with two single beds and a large double or with four singles. Both have a balcony, a desk, a hairdryer and a wake-up service. The hotel lists family rooms among its services.

Check-in is from midday, at 12:00, and check-out until 10:00 in the morning. The front desk is open 24 hours and there is luggage storage, handy if you arrive earlier or leave later. The minimum age to check in is 18.

Yes. Breakfast is a buffet included in the stay and served every day from 7:30 to 10:30. It is a simple breakfast of coffee, pastries and jams, enough to start the day before heading out into the centre.

No, the hotel has no parking of its own. Anyone arriving by car has to use the public car parks in the central area. Given the location, getting around by subway, bus or taxi is more practical than driving.

No, Astoria Hotel does not accept animals. It is worth bearing in mind before booking.

Yes, Wi-Fi is free and available in the rooms. It is one of the things guests mention most often, along with the location and the staff.
