Bed and Breakfast/Guesthouses in BA
 

Sorry for the multiple questions but wanted to see if anyone had recommendations for B&Bs in BA. Have not seen much written about this on Fodor's. Any thoughts/recommendations? Looking for a place in the Palermo Viejo area.

This is NOT my area, but over the last few months I have seen A LOT written here on the subject, so I feel that maybe you should look again.

Anyway, I'm sure drdawggy and others will soon respond to your call with all their expertise.

Suy :

Try Casa Monserrat in Monserrat neighb.
Salta 1074. Not a top neighb., but a top B&B.

I told you the cavalry would get here pretty soon!!!

Thanks much guys! Will start hunting down places now. Didn't realise I was late to the game for my reservations. To think I was being sheepish about planning a trip in March now!

By the way, when you say Casa Monserrat is not in a top neighbourhood, is that a reference to safety or accessibility?

All yours, santiagov, FOUR minutes ago!

Now I know I am being a ditz but how does one find Five's website? I've tried to google it and all I get are references to five star hotels and the like. Sorry about this!

All yours, santiagov, SIX minutes ago!

Accessibility is excellent , its not an unsafe neighbourhood for Porteños ; but its not a nice place to walk alone at night, yes might be rather unsafe at night .
You may ask a Radio taxi from the B&B and in a 5 minutes ride you are in Recoleta or dowtown.

Not my area, but I looked at previous threads and found it easily enough.

As far as I know, that area is not the nicest to walk but by radio taxi you will not have problems.

And why don´t you try to rent a furnished apartment as another possibilty?

There are a few companies doing so and for sure you will find a suitable apartment for the price of B&B in the neighbourhood you like.

Thanks much. Looks like I need to take lessons from avrooster on my search skills!

Posada Palermo is an excellent choice and the neighbourhood is safe very conveninet. The owner is fantastic and extremely helpful.

Does anyone have experience with Olleros3000. It looks good from its website but I have read one review that said it was noisy.

We just returned from 9 days at the Malabia House.

OMG - we loved it. The staff are amazing wonderful people and the place is gorgeous.

Palermo Viejo is the happening place to be right now. Check it out.
