There are 2 Sheraton Hotels in Buenos Aires. the other being the Sheraton Libertador. Both hotels are fairly close to one another. I opted for this location based on overall reviews and based on my intended itinerary. One of my days was spent taking a ferry across the Rio de la Plata to visit Uruguay and this location was fairly convenient to the ferry terminal. As for exploring B.A. itself, i was able to walk everywhere I wanted to go. It is in a nice, safe and business oriented neighborhood. There were no issues with outside noise coming into the room.
Facilities:
The hotel was very well maintained and the lobby was nicely appointed with marble floors and a generally upscale vibe. The Sheraton shares a lobby with the Park Tower, another SPG property. Given its city center location, where space is generally limited, i was pleased to find a large swimming pool and tennis courts.
Room:
The room was well appointed and was more elegantly appointed than most Sheratons stateside. The room was average sized. The bathroom came complete with a bidet. As an SPG Gold member we were upgraded to a room which included free breakfast and afternoon hors d'oeuvres I would estimate the value of breakfast to be about 25$ per person and the afternoon snacks at about 10$ person.
Cost: SPG category 4 (10,000 points) or around $175 a night
Overall Impression:
Nice, well appointed hotel close to all the action in Buenos Aires. I was upgraded as an SPG gold member. This upgrade included breakfast and afternoon hors d'oeuvres in the Park Tower next door. I think if i were to do this trip again and use points, I would opt for the Park Tower next door which is 12,000 points. From walking through the Park tower lobby and our breakfast experience there, I think it would be more than worth the extra 2000 points a night.
Buenos Aires is an amazing city, stay tuned for my full trip report.
