Could somebody suggest a (relatively) inexpensive and safe hotel near EZE where I could stay during my long overnight connection ?

There is a Holiday Inn near EZE.

Thanks. What kind of transportation they have to / from airport, and to / from city center (like Recoletto) ? I am not sure how safe the taxis are.

I would not rule out going into town, as I understand that the Holiday Inn and other options nearby like La Posada de las Aguilas are not always bargains.

What times are your flights....? Are you sure its still not worth it to go into town...?

EZE has a lot of shortcomings as an airport, one of them is of course not having a proper hotel on airport grounds. Im afraid I dont know the shuttle or transportation service situation to either the Posada or the Holiday Inn. Perhaps you should contact both places directly and see what they can offer...?

Yes, and if you go into town (~ 45-50 minutes from EZE) you are correct to a avoid the Taxis outside the airport. Take either Taxi Ezeiza (booth in the airport, just after you exit customs they take cash in dollars, euros etc.) or a remis (private car - a bit more $$ than Taxi Ezeiza - they take CCs or cash). I think this advice stands even if you choose to go to the hotels listed above.

Thanks guys. I did stay at Holiday In, and, yes, it was not a bargain But at least I got some sleep. Now I would actually like to visit BA on my way back (also 1 day), but this is a separate topic.
