After three nights at Palacio Duhau<\/a> I’m spending my last night Argentina at the Marriott hotel. Comparatively its rate is about a-third to half of the Park Hyatt so I wasn’t expecting much, but the stay turns out to be a blessing in disguise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First of all you can’t get more central in Buenos Aires than the Marriott, as you are only about two hundred metres away from the Obelisco. It’s a great base to explore Buenos Aires – most attractions are within walking distance and there are all sorts of restaurants in the neighbourhood.<\/p>\n\n\n

I had no problem checking in at just after noon, they also voluntarily offered me 4pm checkout which is a good start.<\/p>\n\n\n

The hotel building is made of two “towers”. The taller tower (23 floors) has a rooftop bar, swimming pool and viewing terrace. The lower tower (18 floors) has the M Club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They have very generously upgraded my reservation to an Upper Suite on the 20th floor of the taller tower. Upon entering the room you see a large bedroom with a working desk. <\/p>\n\n\n

A separate living room:<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n

Bathroom:<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

The layout is unorthodox and the whole furnishing is a bit rudimentary. My room has the “wrong” aspect and you can’t see the Obelisco from here.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

For the M Club there’s a dedicated elevator for access. The interior is nice and the lounge is manned throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n

Happy hour is every evening from 7pm to 9pm, and two hot dishes were served when I was there. I definitely don’t recommend mistreating your stomach on the lounge food though in Buenos Aires!<\/p>\n\n\n

Breakfast buffet in the main restaurant:<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

The quality is very poor. I don’t know how the offering in M Club is like but hopefully it’s better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enough complaints and let’s head to the rooftop!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

I was stunned when I stepped out of the elevator, wow!!<\/p>\n\n\n

Unlike the rather boring design of the hotel rooms, this rooftop greenhouse is stunning. The pool is thoughtfully heated, and it’s connected to a smaller outdoor pool if you want a better view.<\/p>\n\n\n

And finally, the Obelisco:<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

There’s a gym upstairs.<\/p>\n\n\n

The food here might be underwhelming but that’s the least of my concerns in Buenos Aires. The Marriott has a great location and a beautiful rooftop swimming pool, and I recommend it if you are visiting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
