NH City & Tower is an attractive upper-middle-range hotel in one of the most culturally-significant areas of Monserrat. The Art Deco high-rise has 369 rooms, many with a view of the Plaza de Mayo, which is just a four-minute walk from the property. Guest rooms are pleasant and outfitted with modern baths and amenities like flat-screen TVs and minibars. The hotel offers an array of features that include a lovely rooftop pool, a huge fitness center, and a chic on-site restaurant specializing in Argentinean and international cuisine. Price-wise, NH City & Tower is on par with its competition, however the Eurobuilding Hotel Boutique Buenos Aires also offers free breakfast, something that's an extra fee here.
Scene
Art Deco high-rise with lots of style attracting many business travelers
The soaring, Art Deco facade of the NH City & Tower welcomes guests with a stylish look lifted from yesteryear. The entry has marble stairs and a brass revolving door that leads into an expansive and stately lobby. The setting blends modern furnishings with 1930s architecture for a beautiful and refined finish. The ceilings have stained-glass inlays and there are marble and brass accents throughout the lobby and lounge areas. The palette is neutral, with pops of color in the form of artwork showcased throughout the hotel. The hotel draws many business travelers as it's conveniently located in the financial district, though there are several historic landmarks and subway stations nearby, which make it a good base for leisure tourists as well.
Location
One block from Plaza de Mayo in the Monserrat neighborhood; close to several subway stations
NH City & Tower is located in Monserrat, a culturally-rich neighborhood in Buenos Aires. The hotel is a block away from the Plaza de Mayo, Monserrat's main square that dates back to the late 16th-century and is filled with a number of monuments, museums, and the famous Casa Rosada presidential palace. Several top-rated restaurants are in the immediate area of the hotel, and there are several subway stations within walking distance, the nearest one (Bolivar metro station) being a two-minute walk away. The hotel is also in the heart of the financial district, which attracts many business travelers. The airport is about a 40-minute drive away.
Rooms
Clean, pleasant rooms with flat-screen TVs and minibars
Guest rooms are bright and comfortable, with neutral color palettes brightened by brocade headboards and large windows that illuminate the spaces with natural light. Lovely hardwood floors are paired well with wooden furniture, but overall the decor is a little less elegant compared to the public spaces. Beds look crisp and inviting, as do the baths, which are covered in attractive cream-colored tiling that brightens up the space. Bathrooms have shower/tub combos, ample vanity space, bidets, and toiletries. Each room has a flat-screen TV and non-alcoholic minibar with a few snacks. Family Rooms are also available, which are red-accented two-bedroom suites with no full living room, but a small sitting area with a second minibar as well as tea- and coffee-making facilities. Some rooms have gorgeous views of the city, though others overlook a wall or have no windows at all.
Features
24-hour room service and a rooftop pool
NH City & Tower is full of great amenities including a three-level fitness center with a sauna and locker rooms. The rooftop area has a swanky pool and a large terrace so guests can enjoy sweeping panoramas of Monserrat. An extensive breakfast buffet is served every morning for an added fee, and there's a chic restaurant on-site that's open for lunch and dinner and specializes in Argentinean and other international cuisine. The lobby bar is open daily and has a wine list and cocktails as well as light snacks. If guests miss the restaurant's open hours, room service is available 24-hours a day. Business travelers can make use of the free Wi-Fi and meeting space, while families might appreciate the available cribs and extra beds. An airport shuttle and on-site parking are available for a fee, while Wi-Fi is free throughout the hotel.
