Magnolia Hotel Boutique

Great location, walkable to all the action in Palermo. Room was spacious and very clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good, served à la carte, which was a nice change from the usual AG buffet of everything. Wish the room was a bit cozier; better linens, softer seating, because it would have been a nice place to take a mid day break if it felt more welcoming.

We had a lovely two night stay before our flight home from Buenos Aires. The hotel is on a quiet street a short walk from basically everything in the Palermo. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The water pressure in the shower is really really good. Breakfast was excellent - the tomato jam is mind blowingly good. But what made this a special stay was the staff. Every one of them was so genuinely helpful, even when I accidently locked my stuff in the safe using the old code. Will definitely stay there again the next time I'm in Buenos Aires!

Very charming hotel. Only stayed one night with a layover but enjoyed the one night. The entire hotel has an antique-y vibe to it, but it is done really tastefully. When you are greeted your stay comes with two complimentary glasses of wine that you can request any time. We don't drink wine so cannot comment on the actual wine itself. The room was large, bathroom was large, and bed very comfy. There is a terrace on the second floor if you fee like lounging outside. There is an elevator available to get to your rooms. Breakfast is a la carte, but you can order as many items as you want off of it. We ordered the bread basket (croissants) scrambled egg, bacon, granola yogurt bowl and some fresh fruit. Everything tasted really good and was presented really nicely. Staff are nice and helpful. The only thing I found a bit odd, was every time you leave the hotel you have to leave your room key at the front desk and when you return you buzz to get let back in and someone has to physically come and open the door for you. Reception is 24/7 so you can come and go as you please, I have just never stayed at a hotel where you need to leave your room key at the front desk. |Location feels really safe, and it is clean so not sure why there is that policy. |Would stay again though, breakfast was probably one of the best tasting ones we had and the hotel decor was really charming.

Hotel Magnolia is a delightful, artfully decorated, comfortable and cozy hotel located in a vibrant and safe neighborhood. The rooms exude old world charm with modern amenities. The breakfasts are delicious, healthy and plentiful. Most of all, the staff is very attentive and hospitable, helping us book tours, restaurant reservations and transportation. Special shoutout to Mikela who was a gracious host and tended to our every need.

A lovely boutique hotel in a stately historic home, complete with a beautiful inner courtyard in the Palermo district. Our flight arrived early in the morning, and we were welcomed with a fresh cup of coffee and delicious croissants. Throughout the following days, the staff continued to impress us with their kindness and attentiveness. The breakfast is excellent with plenty of options. The hotel is located in a neighborhood that’s perfect for exploring Buenos Aires.

Fantastic stay in what felt like our home in Buenos Aires! The staff went above and beyond to help me with some tricky travel arrangements, breakfasts were excellent, decor very stylish and warm, beds and rooms super comfortable (with windows that open!) and the location is perfect!! Highly highly recommend.

I stayed here twice initially for 4 nights and on my way back through BA for 1 night. The rooms are large and comfortable. Breakfast is great and the staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful.|I would love to see a small fridge in the rooms. I also don't understand having a safe that can be picked up and carried out also too small for a laptop.|But overall, great place to stay and well located.

Myself and wife spent four nights at this hotel, all the staff we friendly and were helpful. The breakfast kept us going throughout the day and the homemade jam was too good not to sample. If you are looking for a small hotel with friendly service this hotel is ideal.

Amazing wonderful small 8 room hotel. Staying here is the closest place to being invited to a very clean well updated home of a friend. Highly recommend and look forward to staying there again.

From the street the hotel looks like just a door with manual door knockers. You have to ring a doorbell and then they come let you in. There's someone at the front desk (with cameras) 24/7. The hotel itself looks like a big house. There's a largish waiting area and then a small dining area right outside a door that leads to the rooms. The room we had was spacious. We were told it's the biggest one there. There's a patio which we didn't use because it was cold and it doesn't have a view. The room smelled a little funny, kind of musty with a plant smell. The sheets also smelled so we used our own blankets. The shower was nice and hot and had good shower pressure. The floor of the shower gets so wet it doesn't until houskeeping comes. I hated the toilet. It was so high I could barely touch the floor with my toes and the angle was no good. Also, when we arrived, our room was so cold and wouldn't heat up. We asked and they gave us a fan heater we used the first night. The next day we found a radiant heater in our room, which was really nice. The staff at the hotel are nice. Breakfast was simple- some bread, made to order eggs and juice. We made the mistake of not asking the price of water and at check out found out it was super expensive. Recommend buying water elsewhere. There isn't much of anything outside the hotel. We were able to walk to Don Julio but were recommended to take a taxi back. There's a small store nearby to buy water but no prices listed so you have to ask, which seems strange. If I ever come back, which is unlikely, I would probably look for a different place to stay. The room just felt dark and depressing and the location isn't particularly good. A lot of reviews mention the service and I agree they are nice, but nothing exceptional.

I stayed here for three nights and it was lovely. The staff were incredibly helpful, recommending good places to eat nearby, describing local attractions, and even booking our ferry tickets to Uruguay! The breakfast was simple but very good. Lots of fun restaurants, bars, and shopping a short walk from the front door. I'd guess there are much cheaper options, but I'm happy we chose Magnolia.

This was home for two nights during a visit to Buenos Aires at New Years. The hotel is located on a side street in the Palermo neighborhood, but is a short walk to a main thoroughfare like Av. Scalabrini Ortiz (which has a metro stop for your public transportation needs). Upon entering the lobby, there is a vintage feel that permeates. Check in took a little bit of time, as there had been some power issues in the neighborhood and the internet was firing back up. The room was located on one of the upper floors and was spacious. Antique furniture appointed the room. There was a large armoir, complete with a safe, for storage. The room had air conditioning, which was definitely a must as it was relatively warm and the room would otherwise have been stuffy. Breakfast each morning was fantastic. Eggs were made to order (complete with a side order of ham if you wanted), a variety of fresh fruit was available, and a nice selection of beverages (tea, juice, coffee). The hotel also has a small roofdeck, which was a nice place to hang out and observe the neighborhood's rooftops at night. The staff was extremely friendly and very helpful. If you are traveling over the holidays, as we were, we got great assistance in how to hail a cab (as reservations were not available to be made). Additionally, when airline websites and online check-in showed some incomplete information, the front desk called the airline and was able to confirm the details of an upcoming flight (sadly my Spanish is non-existent). Overall, a little pricey but the service was attentive. Neighborhood is desirable for restaurants and bars, though not much in the immediate area as this hotel has a residential feel to the environs.

The photo posted here is NOT a photo of the hotel. The outside of the hotel really only has a cute little sign and a big, awesome wooden door with an intercom buzzer to the right of the door. We booked 3 nights here. Had never been to BA. This is a grand little hotel. Small yet charming. Really charming! The room we had was Room #2. Very good sized room. Large king bed. Great air conditioning which we totally appreciated. The breakfasts come with the room and are really lovely. Croissants/breads/yogurt/granola/eggs cooked the way you like them, fruits (and the fruits are insanely good)/juices (again - insanely good), matte tea, coffees. The service is top shelf. Francisco was a doll and answered many questions for us. Alex helped us book a last minute dinner/tango show (I don't remember the venue but it had the name "Angels" in it. DO IT. It's an okay dinner, but an amazing show. Very sexy and wonderful and classy and professional. We LOVED it!). He also helped us figure out the hop on/hop off bus. It says they run every 20 minutes. As we were told by both Francisco and Alex, nothing really runs on time in BA. So sit back and relax and take the hop on/hop off tours to see what sections of BA you want to explore on foot. This little boutique hotel is a charmer. We walked all over every day and never felt unsafe. Enjoy! And say hola to Francisco and Alex from us!
