Before you go inside, you need to know the door code; the phone number sent to my email wasn’t answering. Luckily, it was daytime, and after waiting for 10 minutes and making a few calls, they opened the door. At reception, they gave me the codes for two doors, so you can safely leave your suitcases there – which is handy if you’re checking out late.

Very warm welcome 🙂 The place is quite small, but lots of suitcases were stored under the watchful eye of the manager and the CCTV cameras. Your luggage is given a number; you take a photo of the whole lot and show the photo when you return. It’s simple. I wasn’t asked for the barcode, so I received a reminder message. I spoke to Radical Storage about this reminder. They reassured me about the procedure. So there is definitely a follow-up system in place; they take it seriously. I’d be happy to go back.

Great service, booked online. The staff knew about it already, friendly. Picked up the suitcase, no issue. Would use again. One possible advise that would help loads of travellers - in the locations offer some weight-scales (hand-operated ones, they cost £10 on Amazon) when we can weight the suitcases to see whether they'll go through the checkin (mainly with the low cost ones) without any issues.

This hotel is great but not perfect. Some of the issues we encountered was the huge delays when checking in. Appreciate it was busy, but they should be prepared for this. Alot of the staff were lovely, but there were a handful who were quite miserable - mainly baggage handler. We also found the hotel itself to be very hot which I know in the winter sounds like a silly complaint, but almost too hot to sleep comfortably which we could not seem to fix with using the AC which was also broken. Also heard a constant dripping noise coming from within the wall, possible pipework, which for the first few nights was pretty annoying

About San Telmo, Buenos Aires

San Telmo, one of the oldest and most atmospheric neighborhoods in Buenos Aires, is a charming district steeped in history and culture. Known for its well-preserved colonial architecture, cobblestone streets, and a vibrant arts scene, San Telmo is a favorite among locals and tourists alike.

The heart of San Telmo's bohemian vibe is Plaza Dorrego, where locals and visitors gather to watch street performers, including tango dancers who perform right on the sidewalks, especially on Sundays when the plaza hosts one of the most famous antiques markets in the city. This Feria de San Telmo is a treasure trove for antiques, vintage clothes, unique artwork, and handmade goods.

Beyond the market, San Telmo's streets are lined with old-time bars, quaint cafés, and eclectic restaurants that reflect the area’s rich cultural mix. Museums like El Zanjón de Granados offer a glimpse into the area's historical layers, revealing centuries-old urban architecture through underground tunnels and ruins. Meanwhile, the Museo Histórico Nacional del Cabildo showcases artifacts related to the history of Argentina.

The neighborhood's lively atmosphere is further accentuated during the night when bars and milongas (tango dance halls) fill with enthusiasts eager to dance the night away. San Telmo's infectious energy and deep-rooted cultural flair make it an essential stop for anyone visiting Buenos Aires. Thanks to its incredible position in the city center, it is also possible to reach the main areas of the city, such as the Retiro Train Station, or the main landmarks, like the Obelisco.

How to arrive at San Telmo from Retiro Train Station

Arriving at San Telmo from Retiro Train Station in Buenos Aires is quite straightforward, offering a few different modes of transportation to suit any preference. The journey itself is relatively short, making San Telmo easily accessible.

For those preferring public transport, taking the bus is the most cost-effective option. Several bus lines connect Retiro and San Telmo, including lines 9, 45, and 70. These buses depart frequently from outside the train station, and the ride to San Telmo usually takes about 20 to 30 minutes, depending on traffic. Remember to have a SUBE card, which is used to pay for public buses and can be purchased and reloaded at many kiosks throughout the city.

Alternatively, the subway provides a quick way to travel. From Retiro, you can take Line C of the subway towards Constitución and get off at Independencia Station. From there, San Telmo is a short walk away, allowing you to start exploring the neighborhood almost immediately. The total subway journey won't take more than 15 minutes.

For more convenience, especially if you are traveling with luggage or prefer not to navigate public transit, taxis are readily available at Retiro Station. A taxi ride to San Telmo takes about 10 minutes, depending on traffic, and offers a direct and comfortable route to the heart of the neighborhood.

From San Telmo to Obelisco od Buenos Aires: how to get there

San Telmo and the Obelisco are two iconic landmarks in Buenos Aires, each offering a glimpse into the city's rich culture and history. Traveling from the historic neighborhood of San Telmo to the striking Obelisco in the bustling center of the city is an easy and scenic journey that offers various transport options suitable for every traveler.

For those who enjoy walking, the distance between San Telmo and the Obelisco is approximately 2 kilometers, making it a pleasant 25-minute stroll. The route will take you through some of Buenos Aires’ most vibrant streets, filled with cafés, street art, and local shops, capturing the essence of the city's dynamic atmosphere.

Alternatively, public transport provides a quicker option. The Subte (subway) is perhaps the most efficient way to travel. Board the Line C from the Independencia station in San Telmo and get off at Diagonal Norte, which is just a short walk from the Obelisco. The journey takes about 10 minutes and trains run frequently, making it a convenient choice, especially during rush hours.

Lastly, for those preferring a more leisurely ride, numerous bus lines connect San Telmo to the area around the Obelisco. The buses are not only economical but also offer a closer look at the daily lives of Porteños as you travel through the city.

No matter which mode of transport you choose, traveling from San Telmo to the Obelisco is an experience that showcases the vibrant pulse of Buenos Aires.
