    No AC, which we knew in advance, but with heat wave, windows needed to be open to the noisy street at night. Keys are a bit tricky at first.

    Great old house with a very sweet and engaging owner. Style and flair everywhere. Attention to detail and a nice homemade breakfast. Gilles is reason enough to stay there.

    Any room in the whole city of BA is poorly isolated against the noise. Le petit Palais is no exception. And BA is a noisy city! Bring your ear plugs!

    Gilles et ses 4 chats sont adorables. Hyper sociables et plein de bons conseils.

    The 4 cats!!! And not forgetting the wonderful host, Gilles. He cooked an amazing breakfast and shared great recommendations! We enjoyed relaxing and chatting. He has an excellent eye for design and taste. The location is great for restaurants and bars. Lovely sunny and plant covered terrace too. We'll be back in the summer to see how the kitten, Elliot, has grown. Salut!

    Not being able to access the terrace and upstairs late at night. But considering that the host lives in the same house, it's understandable that guests don't have access at night due to the configuration of the house. There is not much that can be done. But yes, as guests we wish we had an airy space where to go in the evening which wasn't our own room.

    Lovely breakfast by the host, one of the best we had in Argentina. The location was also good. We felt safe and there plenty of options for everything. The room was very clean. Lots of recommendations on arrival by the host on things to do and places where to eat.

    As the building is facing towards a street, although not very busy like a big avenue, but still with some traffic, and as my room was at street level, there was some noise, but not too much. Also, most likely because the building is old and preserved, there is no air-conditioning, which on hot days can be challenging by using only fans. That, though, is something quite common in Argentina, as I tried a few accommodations, and none had air-conditioning.

    Le Petit Palais is a great accommodation, a beautiful building, excellently preserved and decorated by the owner and host, Gilles. It is very central, close to most central things in Buenos Aires. Gilles is very hospitable, friendly, accomodating and very helpful with all my questions, tips and everything I needed to arrange after I arrived. Also, the breakfast he made for us every day, was amazing! Also, both my room and all the shared areas were spotless clean, which was great!

    Not necessarily a dislike but be prepared for a tiny room and shower.

    Offers a home ambiance. Gilles is a great host, provided tips on what to see and where to eat. His breakfasts in the patio were delicious and a great way to meet other travellers.

    Street is noisy, there are urban buses on the street from early to pretty late. Host will give you a plethora of 'rules' to follow (no shoes, careful with the furniture, keys, noise, etc), which we really didn't mind but, you do feel you are a guest in somebodies house the whole time and this may not let you totally relax if thats what you want.

    Courteous and helpful host. Beautiful house. Nice neighborhood. Good breakfast.

    Although the neighbourhood is safe and quiet, it is a 10+ minute walk away from the heart of Palermo. Though we enjoyed the daily stroll through the neighbourhood - and taxis are highly affordable and accessible - do keep this in mind!

    We loved our experience at Le Petit Palais. Gilles (and his adorable cats!) is a friendly and helpful host - he gave us superb recommendations for where to eat and what to do in the city. Extra kudos for one of the best breakfasts we had on our trip to Argentina!

Very nice homemade breakfast so don't skip it before you start your day! The neighborhood is very lively and have a lot to offer in terms of restaurants and bars selection within a walking distance.
