General Information

Once home to a multinational community of late-19th-century immigrant families, this recently renovated conventillo-style house continues to welcome visitors from all parts of the globe, maintaining the tradition of a hodge-podge of languages that inspired the hotel's name. Located on one of San Telmo's characteristic cobbled streets within easy walking distance of Plaza Dorrego, this intimate lodging has all the charm and personalised attention of a guesthouse. The nine air-conditioned, Wi-Fi-equipped rooms surround a small patio and are compact and pared-down. There's a retro air about the discreet decor, and the prevalence of dark wood - a motif throughout the hotel - adds warmth. Flat-screen televisions and chic ceramic sanitary-ware add a touch of sophistication, and in the modest bar and lounge area, you can browse an eclectic selection of books or contemplate the artwork on sale while the obliging staff prepares your tipple of choice. A great breakfast is included in the room rate: wake up to fresh facturas (sweet pastries), with coffee, yoghurts and fruit juices, or opt for scrambled eggs and toast.
