BA (Closed Permanently) Formerly: Axel Hotel Buenos Aires

Great eclectic ULTRA MODERN style hotel

We stayed at the Axel a few months ago for 4 nights. IT is a great Ultra Modern design. The center of the building has glass tread stairs and elevators going 4 stories up with a glass bottom swimming pool as a roof. IT is really cool. The rooms are also ultra modern and kind of spartan, but fun. Our shower was a glass enclosed space and the shower came from the ceiling and drained through the floor. There were dividers that blocked off areas. Our room had balconies with shutter/walls that totally blocked the light when closed. Fitness room on the top floor and additional pool outside. The continental breakfast was well stocked and reasonable. The crowd was mixed during the week, but very friendly. Rooms were clean, staff was friendly. The area around the hotel was not a tourist area but eclectic and felt safe. Easily walkable. But watch out the do not believe in good sidewalks in Argentina.
