Marriott Plaza Hotel Review

The historic Plaza was the Buenos Aires grande dame for most of the 20th century. The intimate lobby, decorated in Italian marble, crystal, and Persian carpets, is a virtual revolving door for Argentine politicians, foreign diplomats, and business executives. Twenty-six rooms overlook Plaza San Martín, providing dreamlike views of the green canopy of trees in spring and summer. The Plaza Grill remains a favorite spot for business lunches and offers a reasonably priced multicourse dinner menu. The Plaza Bar is among the most famous in the city. The hotel's enormous health club has a large heated indoor pool and specialized dance and aerobics rooms. The hotel lobby has free Wi-Fi access, but in-room Internet access costs about $16 a day, decreasing with additional days. The hotel also offers free high-quality historical tours of Buenos Aires.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; cigar bar; concierge; exercise room; health club w/outdoor pool; massage; room service; sauna; Wi-Fi in lobby

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
