About
Edificio Charcas Apart Hotel - Buenos Aires
Edificio Charcas Apart Hotel is a small, 13-room apartment-hotel set in the heart of Buenos Aires, a short walk from the shopping corridor of Florida Street and surrounded by restaurants. The building has an older, creaky charm; guests consistently describe it as clean, spacious, and quiet despite the central address. Rooms come with a sitting area, dining table, and cooking basics, making it a practical base for independent travellers.
The hotel's personality comes from its staff — frequently mentioned by name, they are friendly, helpful, and accommodating, whether you are checking in with a cat or asking for local tips. The atmosphere is warm rather than sleek: think parquet floors, radiator heating, and a small garden some rooms look onto. It is a no-frills stay with heart, not a design hotel.

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Aging building — The structure is described as old and creaky, with radiator heating that some may find dated.
- Limited on-site staff — Only one receptionist was noted as speaking English, which could be a challenge for non-Spanish speakers at other times.
- Short check-in window — Check-in is only between 09:00 and 16:00, which may not suit travellers arriving later in the day.

7.7Verified guest“We loved our stay — the location was great with loads of restaurants nearby, the staff were friendly and always willing to help, and the neighbourhood felt safe even at night. The hotel was clean and tidy.”
7.7Verified guest“This is a small apartment-hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The building is a bit old and creaky, but the apartments are clean and spacious. Other pluses: free and reasonably fast Wi-Fi, a good location for walkable shopping and sightseeing, and many cable channels (mostly Spanish, with some English, Portuguese, and Italian). Facilities aren't super-modern — radiator heating, for example — but that adds to the atmosphere.”
7.7Verified guest“Good position.”
7.7Verified guest“This hidden gem has a great location just a block from Florida Street with numerous restaurants around. The comfortable apartments have all the essentials, a clean bathroom, and helpful staff. The area is safe, making it ideal for solo travellers.”
7.7Verified guest“Leticia, the only receptionist who spoke English, was very helpful.”
7.7Verified guest“Because I travel with a small cat, I needed a hotel that would take us both. Edificio Charcas not only allowed the cat but were so friendly and accommodating that it was a real pleasure. The rooms are big, with a large living room and a kitchen with all useful amenities (dishes, pots, pans, microwave, fridge). The hotel couldn't be more central, yet my room was incredibly quiet, overlooking a small garden where one could have breakfast. The staff topped it all off — the owner is a real benevolent presence, setting a tone of friendliness and hospitality for his team. This isn't a slick, plastic design hotel; it's a warm, friendly place with soul right in the heart of Buenos Aires.”
