Was just there 10 days ago. It's really nice, but completely packed. Great food and drink offers, including Freddo ice cream bars.

Therein lies the problem.
It doesn't matter how nice a lounge is, if they're packed, they're useless for relaxing in.

Yeah, we had to wait a bit for a spot for 3 to sit down. I also got to check out the Amex Centurion Lounge at DFW, and that was by far the best lounge I've been to. Unfortunately I did not have time to take advantage of the free massage, facial or manicure there.

Depends on the people.

I just think busy lounges negates any advantage of having access to one. All very well having nice food and drink but if you can't find a seat to eat and drink in peace then you might as well be out in the public areas.
For example the TAM GRU lounge is a fine lounge when empty but when full is a horrid overheated hell hole. Another I remember was at FCO flying back to EZE. The AZ lounge was standing room only so the wife and I about turned and found a quiet seating area near the gate where we waited for boarding time.

Anybody know what the guest rules are for the new Centurion lounge at EZE? In the US, Centurion lounges allow for immediately family or 2 companions.

However, this website says that guests over the age of 16 are $50. No complimentary adult guest?

I went in with my wife, daughter (3) and son (1) and had no problem at all.

^ Great! They probably don't specify it so that people who have bank-issued "Platinum" AmEx cards don't think they have guest access.

Just talked to a couple of folks who went into the new lounge. The food and drinks were great, but when there is a peak hour, things get crowded very fast.

I travelled 10 hours before the inauguration of the Lounge . I guess i'll have to try it in July.
Has anyone visited the Centurion room inside the lounge? (the one that's only for the titanium cards). Any pics?
thanks!

This is my question. Is there a private room only for Centurion members like they have at MEX?

And is this lounge placed well for long haul AR flights? Like EZE-MAD?

TIA!
