Review of El Niño BienIf you want to travel back in time to an era when tango ruled Buenos Aires, few places will do you better. The beautiful main dance hall here is straight from the Belle Epoque; you'll half-expect Carlos Gardel himself to show up behind the mic. Dressed in black, men and women tango while patrons at side tables respectfully study their techniques. Don't look too closely at anyone, however, unless you know what you're doing: Milonga eyes -- staring from across a room, presumably to lure a partner onto the dance floor -- are taken seriously. Food is served, but don't bother unless you're famished; it's only so-so. Unfortunately, Niño Bien is becoming a victim of its own success, and many tour groups are starting to unload here. If you're looking to find a tango teacher, one will probably find you first at this venue; many instructors come here seeking students for private lessons.

Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip. Related Features

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.
