Buenos Aires Need advice from tangueros

Intend to tango and need recommendations on tango houses,
B&Bs or apartment rentals. I am thinking about staying
in either Recoleta or San Telmo. Gracias!

I'm not a big tango head but my friends are.
I like Catedral. Salon Canning is famous. There are milongas in San Telmo and Belgrano outdoors.

La Viruta is a superfun spot with a very diverse crowd.

Google tango schedules in buenos aires and you will come up with several sites listing where the milongas are every day.

I can't tell you about specific places in those areas, just about them. Recoleta is the richest area of town, so that's an entirely different experience. San Telmo is more traditionally a tango neighborhood. Both are equidistant to the center but Recoleta is closer to Palermo if you intend to head there at all.

Hi Flipsy!

I have recently returned from Buenos Aires and loved it! I was staying in Recoleta. It was a great location to stay. I booked my apartment via ByT Argentina. The staff were very helpful and cooperative.

There are hundreds of milongas in Buenos Aires. During my stay I visited severa. My favourites, each on its own way, were

Milonga Parakultural
http://www.parakultural.com.ar/ and

La Viruta

Hope you enjoy your visit of Buenos Aires!
