Portal del Sur Reviews

Just perfect! Thanks staff guys! Very nice place!

Overall a nice hostel. The bathroom was very clean & the staff were helpful. The lack of air-conditioning made it hard to sleep & it didn't feel like there were was much space to just chill out. The breakfast was quite enjoyable too!

At always, perfect! The only thing that they have to improve, is the internet! Not the wireless, but more computers will help a lot! But, great staff, atmosphere, location, character, cleanliness, etcccccc!!! Recomend it hard!!!!

A very brief stay, but I was really impressed by Portal del Sur, especially the staff and the attractive decor. The only drawback was the noise from the nightclub nearby which went on all night, but there´s not much the hostel can do about that. Oh, and a couple more computers would be useful, the existing two were always busy!

Really enjoyed staying here, it was a great place to meet people. There was a lot of people travelling on their own and it was very friendly and social. The staff were helpful. The kitchen was ab it small but I didnt really cook so that was fine. Overall highly recommended and I am planning to go back.

Friendly staff, handy free internet, very small kitchen, rooms a bit too warm and one tip to sleep with your money locked away or under your pillow, because I lost my wallet overnight in a 8 dorm, which has put a big cloud over the whole experience.

Nice hostel, good location, rooftop with no views but atmosphere was ok.

I've staied in a private room. Was good, they cleaned the room and bathroom everyday. The staff was helpfull, good location. Just two questions, lot of noise from the street and high price, but all city was expensive.

The girl serving breakfast had a really bad attitude - but other than that everything was great!

Very good, excellent atmosphere, godd to know new people..friend;y people. If you wanna be quiet, is ok too, rooms are away from the parties, and silient.

Great hostel. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere, great location.

The hostel is great but the room i was in was right by the road and it was so noisey all night i couldnt get a wink of sleep.

Excellent location; very crowded & messy with cleanliness below average in the bathroom.

I will never forget the wonderful moments I had and the great people I met over there. Definitely one of the best options to stay at when in Buenos Aires. Friendly atmosphere, comfortable facilities, though a couple things could be improved (computers and a few chairs could use a change)

it was all o.k. but it was to according from the outside (street and disco)

I had such a nice stay at Portal del Sur ! The hostel is really pleasant to live in, really beautiful as well, and a great place to meet people. The big range of free activities offered to travellers is a real bonus, and the ones I tried were really worth it. The staff also made of my stay there a truly enjoyable experience. Thank you! P.S: That leak in the females' bathrooms really needs to be fixed !

One of the best hostels I've seen in Buenos Aires, good common spaces for hanging out and meeting people, organised and professional staff.

The only problem that I had there was the hand dryer in the female bathroom. Everytime someone touched it, it would give you an electric shock that left a bad metallic taste in your mouth. As soon as my friend and I told reception though, they quickly acted upon it. The staff are super friendly, helpful and english-speaking. Being a lone female traveller myself, I found it a great hostel to meet people. I would definitely revisit and recommend this hostel :)

the hostel is actually more like a hotel. It is old, beautiful and classy. The service is good and the rooftop terrace is comfortable. If you are a young single traveller I would however recommend going elsewhere, since it is not the most social hostel but more a place where you stay with your girlfriend/boyfriend

Great hostel with central location, not very clean, some rooms can be really noisy (they are located near to the street with a pub under the window!)
