Ulises Recoleta Suites Argentina

Unbelievable Luxury Awaits: Ulises Recoleta Suites, Argentina!

Unbelievable Luxury Awaits: Ulises Recoleta Suites in Buenos Aires - My Brain Dump Review! (Prepare for Rambling!)

Okay, buckle up buttercups! I just got back from a whirlwind stay at Ulises Recoleta Suites in Buenos Aires, and my brain is still buzzing like a hummingbird on Red Bull. "Unbelievable Luxury Awaits" – right? Well, let's dissect that promise, shall we? And yes, this is going to be… a bit of a ride. Consider this your digital diary entry, full of messy thoughts and hopefully, some useful nuggets of gold.

First Impressions… and the Elevator! (Accessibility & Services & Convenience - Starting with the Basics!)

Okay, so the Recoleta neighborhood is stunning. Think Parisian elegance meets South American sizzle. Ulises Suites… well, the outside is chef's kiss. Inside? My first test, always, is accessibility. Good news, folks! They've got an elevator (a crucial win, especially in a city with those gorgeous, but sometimes treacherous, cobblestone streets). The facilities for disabled guests are… present. I'd need a more detailed assessment from someone who requires truly specialized features (that I don't have the expertise to offer), but visually, it seemed manageable. Definitely check with the hotel on specific requirements.

Check-in/out was supposed to be Contactless, but let's be honest, sometimes that's a flimsy excuse, a pretense. No worries! It went smoothly. The doorman was charming. Luggage storage? Sorted. And the obligatory 24-hour front desk is a comfort, especially when jet lag hits at 3 AM. They even offered currency exchange which, frankly, after a long flight, is a godsend.

The Room - My Sanctuary (Available in All Rooms - Oh, the Glorious Minibar!)

Alright, the room. This is where the "luxury" really starts to flex. I’m talking air conditioning that actually works (praise be!), a blackout curtain that obliterated the Buenos Aires sunshine (perfect for those afternoon naps!). The bed! Oh, the bed! Utterly sink-into-it-and-forget-all-your-worries comfortable. I’d give it an extra long bed! And the bathrobes… fluffy clouds of comfort!

And the minibar! Oh, the temptation. It’s well-stocked, and by the second day I'd already committed myself to several guilty pleasures. Free bottled water is clutch. Coffee/tea maker? Essential for a caffeine addict like me. The room itself was spacious, with a proper seating area, a desk for the (unfortunately) necessary work, an in-room safe box for peace of mind, and surprisingly, a scale! (I'm ignoring that one, thank you very much.)

Wi-Fi & Internet - Connected.. or Not So Much?

Free Wi-Fi in the room, and it worked… most of the time. There were a few moments where I wanted to scream at the router, but overall, it was acceptable. I guess that is okay. There was also Internet access – LAN, if you're old school.

Dining, Drinking, and Snacking - Food, Glorious Food! (With Many Adventures!)

This is where Ulises really shines. Now, let me be clear: I love food. And Buenos Aires? Paradise.

Breakfast: The breakfast [buffet] was a solid start to the day. However, I wanted more. I'm a big fan of Asian breakfast, even if it is just a little bit of noodles. The breakfast was adequate.
Restaurants, Bars, and Cafés: There are restaurants on-site.
Room Service: Room service [24-hour] is, of course, a must. Especially in the deep of night.
Happy hour: Ah, yes, happy hour. A sacred ritual.
Poolside Bar: Ahhhh, that’s just a dream.
Snack bar: You will never want for food.
Coffee shop: I also went to a coffee shop in the adjacent building.

Relaxation & Wellness - Steamrooms, Saunas, and… Self-Care?

Pool with view: I am a big fan of this!
Sauna and Steamroom: The promise of a sauna and steamroom was calling my name.
Gym/fitness: The fitness center was there. Now I feel bad.

Cleanliness & Safety - Peace of Mind in a Pandemic World

Okay, let's get serious for a sec. Travel in the age of… well, everything! I found the staff meticulously attentive.

Anti-viral cleaning products. They are there.
Daily disinfection in common areas. Check.
Rooms sanitized between stays. Good news!
Hand sanitizer. Everywhere.
Staff trained in safety protocol. Seemed like it!
Sanitized kitchen and tableware items. That feels good.

The Quirks (Because Nothing's Perfect!)

My biggest issue? The location, in the heart of Recoleta, meant noise. Especially during a busy weekend.
The lighting in the bathroom was a bit… clinical. A few dimmer options would have been appreciated.
The service was often formal.

The Emotional Response - Did Ulises Deliver On the "Unbelievable?"

Look, Ulises Recoleta Suites is good. Really good. It's comfortable, stylish, and well-located. It's a solid choice for a luxury stay in Buenos Aires.

My Verdict - Go for It!

Ulises Recoleta Suites – Buenos Aires: Week of Glorious (and Possibly Ridiculous) Mishaps

Day 1: Arrival & The Buenos Aires Body Slam (And a Really Good Empanada)

Morning (7:00 AM -ish): Okay, let's be honest, the flight was a red-eye fueled by questionable airport coffee and the desperate hope I wouldn't end up wedged between a screaming toddler and a guy with a suspiciously large bag of peanuts. Landed in Ezeiza, feeling like a zombie. Found a taxi – blessedly, the driver mostly understood my Spanish. (Or maybe he was just humoring me. Whatever. The point is, we got there.)
Mid-Morning (9:00 AM -ish): Checked into Ulises Recoleta Suites. First impression? Chic. Very chic. Think minimalist design, exposed brick, and a faint, intoxicating aroma of fresh laundry. My inner minimalist freaked a little at the clutter I'd brought, but hey, we're embracing the mess, remember? The suite itself? Gorgeous. Balcony overlooking something – I would get back to that later.
Late Morning/Early Afternoon (11:00 AM - 1:00 PM): The quest for sustenance begins. I was ravenous. Found a little parrilla (grill) a few blocks away. Ordered an empanada. And then another. And then two more. Honestly? The best damn empanadas I've ever tasted. Flaky pastry, perfectly seasoned beef… Pure, unadulterated bliss. Okay, I'm in love with Buenos Aires. Seriously, the empanadas changed my life.
Afternoon (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM): Recoleta Cemetery. Everyone raves about it. And yeah, it's impressive. Over-the-top elaborate tombs, marble statues, the whole shebang. But honestly? A bit overwhelming, and a little…macabre. I mean, imagine spending eternity in a mausoleum that looks like a gothic gingerbread house. I got slightly lost, which happens, and ended up wandering around, slightly unnerved. But the architecture was something else. I'll give it that.
Evening (7:00 PM - 9:00 PM): Dinner at a "tango show" restaurant. Expected romance, got… a very enthusiastic dance routine and a LOT of red wine. The dancing was impressive, no question. But it felt a bit…touristy. Though, after a few glasses, I was halfway tempted to jump on the stage myself. The wine made everything better and I loved the fact that I'm there!

Day 2: Lost in Translation (and a Very Frustrating Attempt to Get Coffee)

Morning (9:00 AM - 10:00 AM): Up early-ish, fuelled by instant coffee from my hotel room (not great, but hey, desperate times). Attempted to find a decent coffee shop. This is where the language barrier really started to bite. "Un café con leche, por favor" seemed simple enough, right? Apparently not. Ended up with… something. It resembled coffee. Sort of. The woman behind the counter just stared at me with a look of such utter bewilderment I quickly took my drink and went.
Mid-Morning (10:30 AM - 12:30 PM): Attempted to walk to the Casa Rosada (Pink House). Got distracted. Very easily. By a street vendor selling alfajores (another life-changing food item…seriously, the Argentinians know desserts!) Ended up wandering down some charming side streets, admiring the architecture, and wondering if I should just move to Argentina and become an alfajor connoisseur.
Afternoon (1:00 PM - 3:00 PM): Lunch. Found a cute little cafe, ordered what I thought was a salad. Got served… well, it was something. Lettuce, some vaguely identifiable vegetables, and a mountainof mayonnaise. I bravely ate it, knowing that I'd need the energy for whatever unexpected adventure awaited.
Late Afternoon (4:00 PM - 6:00 PM): Wandered aimlessly in a park. Found a bench, and people-watched. So many stylish Argentinians! They make everything look easy—fashion, romance, daily routines! I feel like a complete mess, covered in alfajor crumbs.
Evening (7:00 PM - 9:00 PM): Determined to rectify the coffee situation. Went to a cafe that looked promising. This time, I used Google Translate. Victory! I got a latte. A real latte. My faith in humanity was restored. Spent the rest of the evening at the hotel's balcony enjoying the view.

Day 3: Evita, Art, and the Great Bookshop Debacle

Morning (9:00 AM - 11:00 AM): Evita, Evita, Evita! Visited the Recoleta Cemetery again (this time, with map in hand). Found Eva Perón's tomb. It's surprisingly…humble. (Or, you know, ‘for once’.) A lot of people were there, leaving flowers, crying. It's really quite affecting the whole scene. I'm not particularly emotional about politics, but the emotion of the moment… it's very powerful actually.
Mid-Morning (11:00 AM - 1:00 PM): MALBA (Latin American Art Museum). Stunning. Seriously, the art was incredible. The scale of the pieces… and I found myself getting completely lost in the colors, the shapes, the stories. This is where I actually felt like a cultured person. (For, like, two hours.)
Afternoon (1:00 PM - 3:00 PM): Lunch. This time, ordered with more confidence. Got a pretty good sandwich. Progress!
Late Afternoon (3:00 PM - 5:00 PM): El Ateneo Grand Splendid (bookstore). If you've ever wanted to feel like you've stepped into a gorgeous, old theatre, this is the place. I spent far too long just wandering around, pretending to be a literary genius. A moment of bliss. Then… I tried to buy a book. The cashier didn't speak English. I didn't speak (much) Spanish. A lot of pointing, gesturing, frustrated sighs, and eventually, a sympathetic smile from another customer who stepped in to translate. I walked out with a book. Feeling victorious and exhausted at the same time
Evening (7:00 PM - 9:00 PM): Found a parrilla (grill) with a lively atmosphere in the San Telmo neighbourhood. I ordered a steak. And it was… an experience. Huge. Delicious. And I suspect it was cooked enough to still be kicking. But I devoured it anyway.

Day 4: Tango Lessons & the Aftermath of a Tango Mishap

Morning (10:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Tango lesson. I thought I could dance. I cannot. I am the tango equivalent of a baby giraffe learning to walk. My partner (a very patient instructor) kept saying "¡Muy bien!" which I suspect was a polite lie.
Afternoon (12:00 PM - 1:00 PM): Bruises. Lots of bruises. And an overwhelming desire to sit down and re-evaluate every movement of my body.
Later that Day: I tried to recover. Ate another empanada. Watched the world around me. And considered just giving up on the tango all together.
Evening (8:00PM): I'm going to cry and feel awful.

Day 5: San Telmo Market and a Lost Hat (and a Lost Sense of Direction, as Usual)

Morning (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM): San Telmo Market. So much to see! Antiques, vintage clothing, hand-made crafts…a treasure trove of stuff. I bought a ridiculous hat. (I blame the wine from the tango night before.)
Mid-day: I lost the hat. Seriously, how do you lose a hat?
Afternoon (3:00 PM - 5:00 PM): Wandered around more. Got lost. Again. Found some amazing street art. This city is full of surprises.
Evening: I'm going to order some food and stay in.

Day 6: A Day Trip. Wait, Where Am I?!

Morning/Day: I'm taking a day trip. Trying to get to… well, I'm not quite sure. Honestly, I'm going with the flow. I'll figure it out.

Unbelievable Luxury Awaits: Ulises Recoleta Suites - FAQs (with a dose of Reality)

Okay, so is Ulises Recoleta REALLY as luxurious as it looks online? Seriously, what's the REAL deal?

Alright, buckle up, because here's the truth. Yes, for the most part, it *is* ridiculously swanky. Like, picture a movie mansion where you're allowed to roam around. The lobby is, like, jaw-dropping. Marble everywhere. And the suites? Forget fighting over the TV remote – *there are probably two*! But… (and there’s *always* a but, isn’t there?)… it’s not perfect. I mean, perfection is boring, right? Like, that perfect Instagram photo? Yeah, it probably took 50 tries. Anyway, I’ll get into the nitty-gritty of the "buts" later. Let’s just say, my expectations were sky-high, and even the best of them were a little... well, challenged at times.

The location – Recoleta. Is it truly as glamorous as they make it sound? Do you actually feel fabulous there?

Recoleta… Ah, Recoleta. Picture this: cobblestone streets, cafes filled with people who *look* like they’re effortlessly chic, and the faint scent of expensive perfume wafting through the air. It’s… intoxicating. Seriously, I felt a pang of inadequacy the moment I stepped out of my Uber! My jeans felt suddenly… pedestrian. You *do* feel a certain level of "fabulous," assuming you don't trip on the cobblestones like I did (mortifying!). I spent a good hour in the hotel bar after my stumble, strategizing how I could fake effortless elegance. The location is fantastic, right near the Recoleta Cemetery – a surprisingly captivating (and slightly macabre) place to wander. Definitely recommend it, just watch your step! And bring your most stylish shoes - you *might* just fit in.

What's the deal with the service? Is it genuinely attentive, or just… polite?

The service… now, this is where things get *interesting*. Generally, it's excellent. I mean, they’re *trying*, bless their hearts. They're incredibly polite, and they clearly want you to have a good time. But here’s the REALITY: there were a few hiccups. Like, ordering room service one night and the scrambled eggs – which, by the way, were supposed to be *amazing* – arrived cold. Cold, rubbery, and looking… well, let’s just say they weren't the stuff of breakfast dreams. And getting a coffee in the morning sometimes felt like a mission. It was a bit slow, a bit… "Argentine time," let's call it. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't flawless. The bellhops, though? Absolute legends. Super helpful and always smiling, making up for any minor service issues.

Let's talk about the suites. What's the space REALLY like? Is there a hidden camera in the shower? (Just kidding… probably. Maybe.)

Okay, the suites. They ain't playing around. HUGE. Like, you could throw a small cocktail party in the bathroom alone. (And yes, I actually *did* consider it.) The decor is… well, let's say "opulent." Think chandeliers, plush fabrics, and enough mirrors to make you question your reflection (in a good way… hopefully). My suite had a balcony overlooking the park, which was spectacular. Perfect for sipping wine and pretending I was a glamorous socialite. The bed? Oh, the bed. Cloud-like, supportive, and just begging you to never leave. I essentially lived in that bed for a good portion of my stay. No hidden cameras, as far as I could tell. (Though, you know… one can never *really* be sure… right?) A little too much black and gold for my usual taste, but… I felt regal, I have to admit.

The breakfast. Everyone raves about it. What’s the hype about the breakfast?

Okay, breakfast. *This.* Is where the Ulises experience almost, almost, redeemed itself entirely (those cold eggs, ugh!). The spread is insane. Think: mountains of fresh fruit, pastries that would make a French patissier weep with joy, and… oh, the coffee. Rich, strong, and expertly made. The omelet station! A dream. Freshly squeezed juices galore. And the atmosphere? Elegant without being stuffy. It *is* worth it to wake up early for, and the sheer variety means there's something for everyone, including me and my ever-growing list of breakfast cravings. So... it's good. It's damn good. And yeah, I probably spent a *little* too much time there. Don't judge me.

Any hidden fees or surprise charges? Because… budget.

Ah, the dreaded hidden fees. Let me tell you, I've seen some hotels try to nickel-and-dime you to DEATH. Thankfully, Ulises wasn’t *terrible* on this front. The biggest surprise I could report was just the usual, like, the mini-bar (which, let’s be honest, is always overpriced). And, of course, the exchange rate *will* get you. So, just be prepared for that. Tip: always check your bill carefully! I didn't find anything egregious, but it’s always good to be vigilant.

The pool and spa - are they worth the hype?

Okay, about the pool and spa. The pool? Gorgeous. Absolutely stunning. Seriously, it's photo-worthy. You know, the kind of pool you’d see on the cover of a magazine. Unfortunately, the day I wanted to use it (the *only* day I was actually free to use it!), it was suddenly closed for "maintenance." And the spa? Well, I didn't actually get to the spa. I was so bummed about missing out on the pool, I just… gave up. So, I can't personally vouch for the spa experience, but I saw some photos, and it *looks* lovely. My recommendation? Call ahead and make sure the facilities are open before you get your hopes up! Note to self…

Would you recommend Ulises Recoleta Suites? And what kind of person should book it?

Okay, the BIG question. Would I recommend it? Honestly? Yes. But with caveats. You need to go in with realistic expectations. It's luxurious, yes, but it's not flawless. It's a bit pricey, but the location is AMAZING. The breakfast is incredible. Infinity Inns
