Stayed with the crew in the Hilton hotel (highly recommended) and spent most of my 24 hour layover walking around the city and exploring.

As has been mentioned many times on this thread, the steaks in Argentina are "to die for". My favourite place was El Establo. One of the crew members I flew with told me about El Establo and I was never disappointed.

This thread has really got me thinking of going back down there in the very near future. I think that this is what I have been saving all those miles and Hilton points for.

See you down there.

Hi.. glad you enjoyed it down here. For the next time you come down, I would suggest you try some of the lodging options available in Palermo... now that you know the Puerto Madero area, I think it will be a nice change of pace/style and allow you to know another part of the city.
