Accomodation advice needed
15 years ago, December 7th 2008 No: 1 Msg: #56825  
Hola chicos y chicas!

Next month I am jetting to South America for 6 months of travelling/backpacking/adventuring. I fly in to Buenas Aires and will most likely be staying there for 5 or 6 nights and was wondering if any of you fine people would be able to give me some advice on where is best to stay.

I\'m a bit torn between staying in the Palermo district or San Telmo. I\'m travelling alone and my Spanish is passable but basic, so I\'m looking to stay somewhere nice and social where I might meet other people etc. If anyone can give some general thoughts on these areas or if you\'ve been somewhere in particular you would recommend I\'d be most grateful!

Thanks folks

I would recommend San Telmo too. We stayed in a great hostel - the Art Factory. They spoke brilliant English and we met some lovely people there too. I don't think there are any dorms so you'd have to have your own room but I would definitely recommend it and would stay there again myself.

Hope that helps

From what I can remember Palermo is great for nightlife but it's further out of the city. San Telmo has some great bars too and is easier to get everywhere from Reply to this
