Truly a five star experience. We arrived early after a 9 hour flight, and they let us use a cabin in the pool/spa area to shower and change clothes. Then they stored our luggage until our room was ready, so we got a head start in enjoying Buenos Aires. The restaurant is excellent Italian quisine.

A beautiful boutique hotel in the Retiro central quarter of Buenos Aires. Very walkable to many other destinations and the hotel itself is absolutely lovely. It pays to ask for a junior suite otherwise the other rooms are too small and have no views

We loved the location and corner rooms. The staff was exceptional. The only negatives were small shower stalls and some showers had a slippery step up before exiting. Also the shampoo, cream rinse, and body gel bottles were impossible to pump. We had to remove the tops to use them. There are few choices in this lovely, safe, and quiet neighborhood, and this hotel is a good one.

Casa Lucia is tucked away on a lovely, quiet street, offering an atmosphere of refined calm. The hotel has an old-fashioned sense of luxury and service — the kind of five-star experience you’d find 20 years ago, in the best possible way. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful, and the gym was excellent — far better than what you usually find in a boutique hotel.
The only downside was the oddly shaped, very small shower, which didn’t match the otherwise spacious comfort of the room. Still, Casa Lucia is a wonderful place to stay for anyone who appreciates classic elegance and genuine hospitality.
