InterContinental Hotel Buenos Aires

We visited this hotel as part of a cruise/tour with Princess. The location was less than ideal but certainly not bad. Before arriving here, we dropped other passengers at the Sharaton Park Towere at the end of Calle Florida and, at least based on location, that would have been a better choice.

In any case, the Intercontinental is quite nice. Because we were part of a cruise package and a zillion of us had just arrived from the airport, checking was in a special location rather thann at the desk and, of course was a bit of a zoo. Fortunately, our friends Gus and Val had arrived a bit earier and had us upgraded to the conceirge level for a very modest cost. Unfortunately, our room was not ready and as the timeticked away, I could get a straight answer as to when it would be. However, we had a great lunch while waiting and then were able to wait in the concierge lounge.

Our room was spacious and elegant and had a nice view of a small park. Actually, when the time came to board the ship a few days later, we weren't ready to go!
