Selina Palermo

Rude staff, missing basic services, outdated furniture, terrible breakfast, overexpensive for the neighborhood. The only good point was that the room was quite large.

Highly recommend staying at the Selina Palermo when visiting Buenos Aires!! The Palermo Soho area is such a great place to stay to experience BA and be around so many shops, restaurants, bars, and parks within walking distance. The Selina Palermo is like a hostel but still has private rooms, so even though we got our privacy we still had the benefit of being in a place with a downstairs bar, meeting other travelers, enjoying the DJ sets. We were able to rent bikes from Selina to explore the city. All the workers were so friendly - really just an awesome vibe!

Lovely room, far exceeded my expectations! Would stay here again

The best part about this hostel is definitely the many ways to socialise (they use a hostel whatsapp group), the amazing location and helpful staff. But, it is too expensive for what it is. It isn't that different to other hostels in the area but charges more. The bathrooms are clean but old. There is no terrace or outdoor social space. Breakfast was not included.

We stayed 5 days in Selina Palmero and the location is amazing. Rooms are clean. As a minor improvement point, not everything works a 100% - broken facilities happen. The rooftop bar is under construction. We liked the downstairs bar which has a relaxed atmosphere. All staff was really friendly. Uchi and Diego were amazing and helped us out many times.

We are a family of 4 and got a private room. Everything was great!! Super friendly staff!!! Kids had a great time and grown ups has delicious drinks! We arrived late and hungry and had sandwiches downstairs. They went above and beyond!! Thank you for everything!!

Awesome room, great location and really friendly staff!

The hostel is very clean and in the Best place of palermo also the team work pretty well. There is a bar inside of the place, the rooms is very very clean, travelling a lot here and this is one of the best experience and the best in buenos aires, there is a guy on reception who knows about parties and bar around the hostel he is called charlie, also diego who works there is very entusiast and a nice person. Is a nice experience, the best barbecue place is town is two streets from the place, and a lot of bar and parties in 10 minutes walking, love that place

WARNING TO TRAVELERS! ROBBERIES IN THE DORMS! Two days ago, I was staying in a shared dorm when I noticed that my lock was gone, the metal where the lock had been was bent, and all of the money was gone. I also checked the other lockers in the room and saw that the two other lockers occupied with possessions had been attempted to be robbed and had the metal bent and cut marks on the locks, but luckily, the thief/thieves weren’t able to break into them. Immediately after realizing what happened, I went into the elevator to go downstairs to talk to the front desk. While in the elevator there were two maids, and I frantically told them that someone robbed me, and they responded that they were on the other side of the building which I found as odd as I never assumed it was them or accused them. Everyone staying in our room this week has been robbed, has been attempted to be robbed, or has left the room because they’ve been so scared after this incident. After talking to the front desk and the others staying in my room, I found out that 3 people in the same room had been robbed in the past few weeks and someone else in another room (these are just the people that we know). Each of us was robbed between 2 pm – 5 pm, the locks all had been cut off, and the cleaning staff had been in our rooms cleaning during the time the robberies occurred. Also, we were told by staff that this is the only hall that currently doesn’t have a working security camera. All of us who have been robbed have been told that Selina couldn’t be held responsible even though it was clear that there was a pattern of robberies. Even one of the victims from a few weeks ago knew that the cleaning staff and a manager had been the only people in the room (via CCTV footage), and none of this was ever investigated by the administration.
