Decadente
El hotel se ve decadente, con signos de deterioro acelerado. Las habitaciones son muy precarias, con colchones viejos, sin protección (forro). La calefacción, se limita a un pobre y viejo radiador eléctrico. El personal es muy rudo y distante, parecen congelados en el tiempo como todo el entorno. El desayuno, sólo carbohidratos, limitado, sin imaginación. No vayan en invierno, Piriápolis se asemeja un pueblo abandonado del lejano oeste.

Could be an amazing place with large investment
It is an amazing place, classic building and large premises with beautiful gardens and an excellent location in front of the sea. But they have not invested in years in rooms and maintenance and it shows. Kudos for the people working there, they do their best but the place needs a lot of money to be up to speed. Breakfast could offer some healthy choices.

This is a beautiful hotel that it’s like a step back into Hotel California ( like the song). It was the grand dame of its day about 100 years ago. The lack of upkeep is a detriment and we know it must be very expensive to keep up a hotel this large. The staff and pool are very nice. if the past lives in you it will be a great place to visit and you will thoroughly enjoy it. If you need more modern conveniences this is not the place for you.

Great hotel, even if it has seen better days. Only steps from the beach. Pool and grounds are gorgeous. Staff is polite and helpful, always available. Rooms are spacious and sparse, with lots of old world charm. Staying at the Argentino is like stepping back to a more gracious era. Hope its former glory is never destroyed by future renovations.

Amazing place! We were in Piriápolis for two nights prior. It was Valentine's Day. My girlfriend, being from Uruguay, had never stayed at the Argentino. Old facility. But with so much charm! It rained all day. No problem. We stayed at the resort. Went to the indoor salt water pool. She had a massage. We ate at the restaurant. Live entertainment. Then a few steps to the casino.

Period Authentic Night in Piriapolis
The Argentino is the old original hotel holiday destination from the 1930’s and is ideally located right in the center of the waterfront. Although aging and showing signs of some neglect of maintenance (such as chipping paint on the exterior window shutters reminiscent of old world European towns), it still maintains an aura of stateliness in its architecture and interior fixtures. The personnel were friendly and professional even though we spoke English in a Spanish speaking country. The downside was the lack of modern upgrades to make the stay comfortable. Our beds were old and simple thin mattresses without box springs and were not very comfortable. The sheets were clean but past their prime. The tv was small and the bathroom “period authentic”. There was a large number of local patrons present at night visiting the downstairs casino which carried its music and chatter up to the top floors well past midnight. This appeared to be the norm with patrons of all age groups occupying the lower floors well into the night. The morning breakfast was disappointing quality and limited in selection. If you are from a western nation then you might appreciate exposure to the local culture, but if you have young children I would recommend finding alternative lodging. We found more modern options on subsequent nights for the same price with more peaceful environs. Not a bad experience but be prepared for a Spartan stay.

This is a historic hotel, please keep this in mind. The charm of the hotel and area is fantastic. There is no air conditioning, there is a ceiling fan and the tall ceilings help. If you want a feeling of what was and what it could be it is worth the experience. If you want a room that you want to hang out in and not leave - this probably is not for you. Be open minded and take it all in and you will be happy.

Its worth
It's a classic hotel, very nice, built in 1930, has a high-ceiling, huge corridors, ancient-well-kept furnitures, complex swimming pool with warmed at two differents temperatures, therei is yet a trampoline on the 3,3m deep, at evening makes beautiful at sunset to take photos. I strongly recommend this hotel by your history, beauty and quality, but dont wait a contemporary architecture and high-end appliances. Enjoy my review!

This hotel is past it's prime by about 70 years.
The hotel could be very nice, but has a horrible decor and doesn't look like it's been properly maintained throughout the decades. Very bland appearance and poor amenities.
