Rooms show their age
The four-pearl Sheraton Mar del Plata Hotel is outside Mar del Plata's city center, next to a golf course and within walking distance of the beach. The public areas are well-maintained, but the 194 rooms, which come with air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and minibars, have begun to show their age. The lobby bar serves cocktails and snacks, and there's a buffet-style restaurant and coffee shop, a Mediterranean-influenced restaurant specializing in seafood, and a pool bar open seasonally. There are also indoor and outdoor pools, a spa with sauna, a gym, and eight meeting rooms. Be aware that Wi-Fi comes with a fee, and parking is pricey. Travelers wanting to stay closer to the city center could compare rates with Hotel Sainte Jeanne, a boutique property with a restaurant, spa, gym, and free Wi-Fi.

Scene
Business-friendly chain hotel with a modern design and views of the golf course and ocean
This red-stone-and glass building has an industrial look. The lobby is expansive, with a large central atrium that’s accented by potted plants along the edges, glossy gray floors, warm-toned contemporary seating, and abstract artwork. There’s plenty of seating across different levels for guests who need a break or want to socialize. The breakfast room features white tables, dark-wood accents, and ample natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows. The bar includes striped carpeting, wooden tables, and a small bar counter. The fitness center and some guest rooms take advantage of the golf course and ocean views. It's a busy hotel, which draws business travelers and tourists, including couples and families.
Location
Outside the city center but close to a golf course, the beach, and restaurants
The Sheraton Mar del Plata Hotel sits next to a golf course and is a 15-minute walk to the beach. Some restaurants and bars are within walking distance, but it’s about a 10-minute drive to the city center for more entertainment, dining options, and shopping. Aquopolis water park is a 30-minute drive away. Bosque Peralta Ramos, a large wooded park area, is a 20-minute drive. It’s a 33-minute drive to Astor Piazzolla International Airport.
Rooms
Contemporary rooms with flat-screen TVs, minibars, and air-conditioning
The 194 rooms at the Sheraton Mar del Plata Hotel are contemporary, but not especially luxurious. Rooms are beginning to look a little dated, and could use a style update. Cream walls, tan carpeting, and white beds are accented by a mix of dark- and light-wood furniture and wicker chairs. Some upper-story rooms have finer quality fabrics and more updated furniture. All rooms feature flat-screen TVs, free bottled water, minibars, safes, and air-conditioning, although they lack coffee- and tea-making facilities. Wi-Fi comes with a fee unless you're an SPG member -- it's free to sign up for the program. Some rooms have ocean and golf course views. Suites provide separate living room areas. Bathrooms are modern and come outfitted with shower/tub combos. Hairdryers and toiletries are provided.
