Very nice property. Quick ride from the ferry. In the middle of the old town so very walkable. The property and the are around it are beautiful. We tried both breakfast and dinner at the facility, both were good. The rooms were comfortable, spacious, quiet and well equipped. The only thing is the tiny bugs that filled the pillows and the bed covers but I guess nothing you can do about that.

A wonderful boutique hotel with only 7 rooms right on the Rio de Plata. Best room is room 7 with balcony on the river. Service was great. Restaurant was a wonderful setting on the river with a limited menu. But enough choice for anyone and really good quality food. One of the very best around.

Not so good

Not so good. Although we did the reservation and paid the first night many days in advance, when we arrived the room was not warmed. The recepcionist turned on the air conditioning and added an additional heater, but we had to wait until after dinner to be able to stay in it.
