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.

No air conditioning made the room a bit warm. Fan in the room helped.

Marvelous host who answered our many questions and helped us find activities that we enjoyed. Breakfast was fantastic. Great location.

Best breakfast in Argentina

Stayed in January 2024

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.

Gilles was wonderful and super helpful! The accomodation is imaculate and you can tell everything is good quality (and he has great taste). Breakfast was also amazing!

The location is both lively and quiet enough to rest. Gilles is a wealth of knowledge and graciously held our luggage after checkout (thank you). The breakfast is made with love.

Road a bit noisy but to be expected

Location, help in arranging everything including sourcing pesos! The cats

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!

Exceptional, friendly and helpful host who knows his ways around Buenos Aires and the neighborhood so trust his recommendations for nice restaurants and ways to spend and enjoy your time. 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.

Unfortunately, we arrived in BA to a heat wave and this older property was not suitable to be adapted with modern air conditioning. The host did a good job with fans and heat management - old style for an old building - very respectful.

The property was a hidden gem in amongst the taller and newer surrounding buildings, with a "secret courtyard" entrance and heaps of character. So hidden we at first thought that we had come to the wrong place!

Stayed in March 2023

The room doesn't have A/C (just a fan), so if you will stay during summer and you suffer from very hot days, think twice. You need to use bedroom slippers (provided at the arrival) inside the house.

Wonderful house, very cozy, within a cool neighborhood! Gilles (the host) gave us the best tips to enjoy Buenos Aires! Breakfast was good. Everything was clean. Wifi is working perfectly.

Shower was a bit on the small side.

Wonderful old house, super well kept, loads of space for guests to use. Gilles was a wonderful host and very helpful.

There is just a bit too much noise from the street for my taste. But I live in Rome in a very quiet street so I am probably not used to it :) Other than this, all perfect!

It was a very pleasant stay. The place is super cozy, the host is a delightful person: very attentive, helpful and kind and gave lots of different tips on the city. Breakfast is homemade and delicious, the cats are very cute. I really felt at home.

A beautiful little spot in the heart of Buenos Aires. The host gives wonderful recommendations for your time in BA and is always happy to help organize a taxi and get you where you need to be. It was a bit hot in the evenings as it was summer time in BA and there was only a fan in the room, no AC, but this was stated beforehand and understood. Otherwise, everything was lovely and the breakfast is fabulous! Homemade bread yogurt, breads, and jams alongside fresh OJ. Definitely a unique experience and would come back again.
