A 3-star hotel with a 4.4 rating often beats a 4-star with a 3.8. We rank by guest score, not just stars. A higher-rated lower-star property is usually the smarter pick.
The most affordable options are Hotel Madero, member of WorldHotels Elite, InterContinental Buenos Aires by IHG, Novotel Buenos Aires. However, we rank by guest rating first — a slightly higher price for a much higher-rated property is usually better value overall.
