Great location and staff.
The property is in a wonderful location just blocks from Plaza Serrano. Many restaurants and shopping near by. The staff was amazing
The A/C unit was not very powerful and didn’t cool the room well. The bathroom was always hot because of the under powered A/C unit.

OK, but wouldn’t go back.
Pretty good location, staff was very kind and tried to be helpful. Spacious room. They had umbrellas for a rainy day.
The WiFi was terrible. My door knob kept getting stuck and I had to go to the desk to have them help me open the door. There were strange noises coming from the kitchen area at night that kept me awake / woke me up. The shower pressure was good but the half glass door meant water got everywhere. Overall just not a great experience and felt like it was overpriced. It’s a very quiet hotel.

the staff was very friendly and helpful good, quiet location only a few blocks from Plaza Serrano.
the finishes and furnishings, bedding (comforter) are all a bit tired and worn. The facility can definitely use a refresh, especially the bathroom (though the water pressure in the shower was great).

Well located comfortable hotel!
The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. And great location!
The half open shower just gets water all over the bathroom when you shower. But that is very common in countries outside of the US.

Very good, would definitely book again. Because of the staff and their help!
Very friendly and helpful staff, made such a difference to our stay. Location is also excellent, room a good size, liked having the terrace, would recommend staying on the top floor, lower two floors terrace has no outlook at all.
Breakfasts were fairly average, would have appreciated a selection of fruit.

Comfortable Well Located and Staffed Palermo Boutique Hotel
the Glu is a sweet, straight forward and comfortable boutique (11 rooms) in a nice area of Palermo. The staff was all exceptional both in friendliness and helpfulness. The breakfast was good and served in the lobby area, back patio or in your room.
It isn’t the style-iest of Palermo boutiques but comfortable. there are small upgrades that would be great such as USB phone charging outlets in the rooms.

Great place to start your stay in Buenos Aires with the most helpful staff
The hotel is in a great location in Palermo Soho, quiet at night but only a short walk to Plaza Serrano, breakfast was varied and plentiful. The rooms are large and spacious. What really made this hotel stand out was the incredibly helpful staff, they welcomed me to the hotel, remembered who I was, were willing to answer any question and even helped me after I had checked out. Probably the most helpful staff I've ever experienced at any hotel stay.
Nothing really. There aren't a huge number of amenities at the hotel, no bar or evening restaurant, but this is as outlined in the hotel listing.

Truly a boutique hotel - and a great one at that.
The word boutique gets used very freely with hotels with few really living up to the title. The Glu is really a boutique hotel. The staff is amazing knowing you by name from day one and doing everything possible to make your stay great. From helping with transportation to restaurants; amazing service. The room was very spacious with nice amenities and great daily service. Breakfast was made to order fresh with a nice variety of pastries and protein. The location is also great walkable to many restaurants, bars and shops. You feel like you're in a neighborhood rather than just another big city. I will definitely stay here again if I'm ever back in Buenos Aires.

The Glu Hotel - what can i say. every second of the stay there was an excellent experience. Loved the hotel, the room, the terrace, the service... the most outstanding aspect is - the team! They are so supportive and warm people such that i blamed myself not having extra days to be there and enjoy more of all the above things. Superb!

Great boutique hotel
Great staff, very kind, helpful and well informed. Good room, spacious, clean and comfortable. Good breakfast, and you can ask to have it served in the room. Excellent location, near a lot of restaurants, cafes and bars (we recommend Ispica cafe and La Favorita bar).
Everytime we showered the bathroom got very wet, because there's no shower door, only a glass wall that goes halfway. And the TV is an old model, that doesn't connect with cellphones and tablets.

Excellent little hotel in the most perfect location.
Friendly and always ready to help staff. the glam suite is excellent in size.
Extra room services for an additional price could be added to make the experience more comfortable. Food and drinks for an example.
