Thank you so much for the use of your beautiful home! It was the difference between ‘visiting” Buenos Aires and ‘living’ an authentic experience in Buenos Aires. Having been around to all the different areas of BA, there is no doubt that Palermo is the quaintest and friendliest of all the neighbourhoods. The close proximity to the parks and all the transportation options made for the perfect location to get anywhere in the city. The bed was so comfortable and a welcome end to activity filled days – I can’t remember the last time I slept so soundly! The kitchen facilities were great for the occasional dinner in (always accompanied by a bottle of fine wine for about $3!!!!) . Again, thank you for the best vacation experience I have ever had.
It is the second time I stayed at Roy’s place here in BA. As usual, a great host, with all the freedom for choice between my independence or sharing time in great conversations and nice restaurants.
A brand new apartment with an amazing view over the city, just one block away from Plaza Italia subway station (on Santa Fe Avenue) a perfect location in Palermo Soho, the most exciting part of BA to stay nowadays, with lots of design oriented little shops, bars, restaurants, art galleries, close to theaters and nightlife, etc, mixed with a very local Buenos Aires neighbourhood lifestyle, with the bakery and the grocery at the corner.
The apartment, a luxury on itself, double glazing, air conditioning and heating, spacious bathrooms with high quality towels and bed linnen, a bed to dream of (and in), complete kitchen with all the appliances you can imagine, all the aparment very cozily furnished, big LCD direct TV sets. etc etc. The building, with a unique view from the gym on the 31st floor, (as well as from Roy’s apartment itself) a swimming pool on ground floor for summers… really I can’t think of anything missing here.
Really feel at home and at ease and for sure will be back as often as possible
Keep on doing this way, Roy… you’re doing great.And thanks again for your hospitality!
Thankyou for a wonderful stay in your beautiful apartment. The views of the city, the sunsets and sunrises, and the facilities were amazing. I had the best sleeps in your comfortable guest room bed and I loved waking up to the great view of Buenos Aires. Located in Palermo with all the parks, cafes, restaurants and boutiques made this a perfect place to stay. Plus being so close to the subway really helped me to see all of the city. Many Thanks,
Peter
For me, this beautiful apartment home was the best place to stay in Buenos Aires. Conveniently located, with stunning views from every room of the apartment. Perfect harmony in each room. The pool and gym are a wonderful addition to enjoy in this luxurious and well appointed B & B. It is worth the reasonable rates charged. Congratulations Roy for the stylish decoration and for the excellent care I received during my time here.

There is nothing better than coming to a new country after a 14 hour flight, having a car waiting at the airport (Roy will organise one for around U$40) which then drops you off to a great apartment in a great location in Buenos Aires.
Roys secure apartment is a in vibrant part of the city only a U$5-7 cab ride from downtown and walking distance from the the many interesting parts of Palermo.
Waking up to breakfast with a fanstastic views of the city skyline is not someting you will not get staying in a hotel.
If you want to do your own thing not a problem. If you want help discovering the city and the beyond then Roy is there to help.
Feeling welcome, having someone to help if need be and living in a safe and comfortable environment and things that make a holiday for me – Roy and his apartment ticked all those boxes.
So if you’re looking for a place to stay in BA – I highly recommend staying at Buenos Aires Gay Bed and Breakfast. Thanks again Roy

We loved the Buenos Aires Gay B&B. Roy was a fabulous host. He welcomed us and we felt like we were staying with a long time friend. The room was wonderful as were the breakfasts that Roy put together for us. The B&B is close to the subway line making it easy to get around. The Palermo neighborhood was a wonderful area to stay in. We highly recommend this B&B and look forward to our next visit.
I cannot find enough praise for this truly wonderful bed and breakfast. Roy is the consummate host. He is incredibly welcoming, full of useful “insider” knowledge on every aspect of life and tourism in Buenos Aires, and a great guy to boot! As a single traveller, I was a little apprehensive at the thought of arriving relatively unprepared in a big unfamiliar city, but I need not have worried as Roy really helped me to have one of the best holidays and experiences I can remember.
Roy’s apartment and his guest room and bathroom are beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. He provides all the mod cons and creature comforts to make you feel like you’re at a home away from home.
The location of the B&B couldn’t be bettered, with a range of stores, cafes and amenities a stone’s throw away from the apartment complex. It is also just a two minute walk from the nearest Subte station (Plaza Italia) and Avenida Santa Fe. The area (Palermo) is very safe and the complex has great and friendly security.
Roy provides a wonderful breakfast with views out over the city and beyond. He was extremely patient with my “irregular hours” (!) and was always the charming host and fantastic company.
I can’t wait to be back in B.A. and shall definitely be staying at Roy’s place once again. A truly incredible oasis in the heart of of one of BA’s coolest barrios.
I just spent 10 days at the Buenos Aires Bed and Breakfast. I could not be more pleased with the facility and the proprietor, Roy. The modern building with a fabulous view of the river and the city is quiet, comfortable, and well-equipped. I spent relaxing hours at the outdoor pool and up in the rooftop gym and sauna. Roy will look after your every need, including preparing the exact breakfast you want each day, providing tips on how to negotiate money exchange, the Subte (subway) and buses. He even went out one evening when I was feeling ill to get me some empanadas from one of the local shops and some medication from the pharmacy. He will also provide other great recommendations, such as where to get a fabulous massage and the best way to get back to the airport when your trip is over. I could not be more happy with my choice.
Spent 8 wonderful days at this luxury place with great views, incredible breakfast with flexible times, great knowledge, wonderful guide to suggested venues, and a great facility with pool and exercise room and spa. What a bargain, first class. Roy is so friendly and professional. He arranged a massage twice with an amazing masseur for $50 usd. He saved the day when my friend needed housing after a hostel overbooked and forced her out with less than 12 hours notice in a market that requires reservations, most everything was fully booked. Thanks for keeping me safe and sharing information like a full time tour guide always pleasant and helpful. First class treatment. Hugs, Bryan NYC
Both Freddie and myself had a great time in B.A. Special thanks to Roy and Luis for their gracious hosting during our stay. They gave us plenty of suggestions and tips on what to see and how to navigate the area. Most of all they made us feel at home and welcome.
Excellent location. Great area for walking but close to subway and rail connections, beautiful parks and the Buenos Aires Botanic Garden. Roy was the consummate host with breakfast made to order, use of kitchen facilities, advice on neighborhood sights and restaurants. Beautiful view from the Apartment and the Gym. Amenities including a lap pool and 24 hr security guards. Thanks Roy and Luis for a wonderful vacation including extra amenities like storage of luggage when I went to Montevideo.
We had such a fine time staying in Roy’s beautiful condo with its glorious views of Buenos Aires and the lovely comfort of a ‘home in the sky’ put together with such care for his guests. Cannot think of a better locale than the heart of Palermo with its cafés, galleries, color and bustle, and then Roy’s retreat on return to refresh ourselves for the next adventure, with his knowledge and insight to guide us. Just fabulous. Thanks, Roy!
Roy is a great host! Not only was breakfast fantastic but his help was very needed, especially being my first time in BA. He had all the maps and guidance I needed in order to get around town, and from a locals point of view which is an added plus! Thanks Roy!
Thank you so much Roy and Louis. You were wonderful hosts and helped make my experience in B.A. a perfect 10. I really enjoyed the accommodations and the insightful conversations about the local culture.
Take Care,
Greg T.
Do the large impersonal hotels with mannequin-like employees bore you to tears, and the risky hostels—never knowing who might be in the next room—creep you out?
If you are looking for that perfect place to stay while in Buenos Aires then stop your search, look no further. Roy Heale and his wonderful Bed and Breakfast in Palermo will be the best addition to your Buenos Aires experience.
Roy is the consummate host, his home is lovely, the panoramic views of BA and the sunsets are spectacular all the while he answers your questions about where to go, what to do, who to see, how to get there… etc. Whether it’s doing your own thing or asking for assistance Roy is always there with a willing smile.
My corner master bedroom was light filled and had more breathtaking views of Palermo, but it was hard getting out of the warm comfortable bed to enjoy them. The master en suite has granite counters, glass shower enclosure… everything you want in a nice bathroom.
I personally like to maintain my workout routine while on vacation, there is a basic gym on the 31 floor and more amazing views. On a clear day you can see all the way over to Uruguay while doing your cardio. This way I can burn off last night’s margaritas and look forward to Roy’s breakfast which was there waiting for me every morning upon my return from the gym; All this just two blocks from the underground subway.
I can’t wait to get back in B.A. and shall definitely be staying at Roy’s place again. He and his home is truly an incredible oasis in the heart of one of BA’s coolest barrios. If Roy’s B&B is available when are making your travel plans then grab the space, you’ll be very happy you did.
The Buenos Aires Gay Bed and Breakfast is a wonderful change from impersonal hotels. It’s conveniently located near the subte, offers amazing views, and the host, Roy, is both knowledgeable and affable. He knows the ins and outs of local life and especially of the gay community in Buenos Aires. Within walking distance of some of the cities most beautiful sites, The Buenos Aires Gay Bed and Breakfast is incomparable.The room was immaculate with spectacular views of Palermo, and the breakfasts were both filling and delicious. My ever changing breakfast schedule was not a bother to Roy, who was both patient and flexible with me, serving me delicious chorizos, bacon, scrambled eggs, pastries, etc. And his knowledge of the gay life in Buenos Aires was vast. Thanks to him I was able to attend several gay events and make some new friends. One such event was the Gay Pub Crawl, which I never would have known about if it weren’t for Roy. I really felt as if I were staying at a friend’s place. I definitely plan on returning to Buenos Aires and staying at the Buenos Aires Gay Bed and Breakfast. And I will surely recommend it to all my friends who plan on taking a trip to Buenos Aires!
I just came back home from a fantastic 10-day stay at Roy’s Bed and Breakfast in Buenos Aires.
The location couldn’t be better, only a couple of minutes walk to the subte (metro), and local bus stops – right in the middle of Palermo.
The building is very secure and very clean. A gym on the 31st floor with fantastic views over the city.
Roy is the perfect host, he knows everything about Buenos Aires, and makes you really feel at home. It doesn’t matter what time I got up in the morning there was always a nice breakfast waiting for me.
On Roys recommendation I took part in the gay pub crawl, which takes part every Thursday and Saturday, I got to know the bars/clubs and met guys from all over the world. Great nights!
Coming to Buenos Aires again, I wouldn’t stay anywhere else!
ALOHA ROY AND LUIS, MY ENJOYMENT OF BUENOS AIRES WAS MAGNIFIED ENORMOUSLY BY MY HAVING STAYED IN ROY’S B AND B. YOUR IMMEDIATE CONCERN FOR MY GETTING THE BEST EXCHANGE RATE FOR MY AMERICAN DOLLARS AND WATCHING OUT FOR ME ON THE SUBWAY WAS JUST THE BEGINNING OF YOUR KINDNESS. YOUR CONCERNS FOR MY LACTOSE AND GLUTEN INTOLERANCE AND GOING OUT OF YOUR WAY TO SHOP ON THE INTERNET AND FIND ME GLUTEN FREE BREAD WAS A SMALL EXAMPLE OF HOW DEDICATED YOU ARE TO YOUR GUEST WELL BEING. I LOVED MY ROOM AND THE VIEW. THE CONVENIENCE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD FOR RESTAURANTS, SUBWAY, PARKS AND SHOPPING WAS GREAT.
THE MARVELOUS GYM ON THE 31ST FLOOR WITH THE SWEEPING VIEW OF THE CITY WAS PERFECT FOR ME. I KNOW LUIS IS NOT THERE ALL THE TIME BUT I WAS SO DELIGHTED WITH HIS PRESENCE AND MY CONTRACTING WITH HIM FOR A GAY TOUR OF THE CITY WAS GREAT FUN. I FELT TOTALLY SECURE IN YOUR BUILDING AND IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. I WAS ALSO SO APPRECIATIVE OF ALL THE TOURIST AND GAY MAPS AND LITERATURE YOU GAVE ME THAT MADE PLANNING MY ACTIVITIES SO MUCH EASIER.
I TRULY FEEL I NOT ONLY STAYED WITH YOU IN YOUR B&B BUT I MADE TWO WONDERFUL FRIENDS.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING MY STAY SO WONDERFUL.

Bonjour,
Un charme, vue superbe, déjeuners personnalisés et des hôtes qui feront tout pour faciliter votre séjour. Merci beaucoup Roy & Luis pour votre accueil chaleureux!
Charming, excellent view, personalized breakfasts and two hosts that make sure your exploration of the city is easy. Thank you so much Roy & Luis for your hospitality!
I planned my 1st trip to Buenos Aires to celebrate my birthday. I decided to try something different from the typical hotel room and found Roy’s website. I read all these great reviews, so I took a chance and was not disappointed! Upon my arrival I found a clean, beautiful apartment in a great area near the subway and buses, a large and comfortable bedroom suite with wonderful city views, and 2 friendly, knowledgeable hosts. I had a wonderful breakfast every morning, lots of advice on places to go and things to see and do. I was even surprised with a piece of birthday cake! This is a great place to stay for a first-timer to this great city. Thank you, Roy & Luis, for your hospitality!
In October 2013, José and I decided to travel to Buenos Aires to get married during the upcoming holidays. We allowed ourselves two weeks for the process due to Christmas and New Years. We stumbled upon this website while looking for a place to stay. After a few emails back and forth with Roy and Luis, we were saddened to know they could only host us for the first week, but they helped us find accommodations for the second week.
During our correspondence we discovered they could offer more than a great place to stay… so we contracted them to ensured our wedding went off without any problems. Luis and Roy escorted José and I to each and every required appointment from registering as temporary residents with the police department, to the local hospital for blood test, and to the civil registry to submit all the required paperwork. Their assistance was paramount and only surpassed by the friendship forged.
José and I married on January 2, 2014; during our second week in BA. Although we were not staying with Roy and Luis, they were always there for us. Roy and Luis attended our wedding ceremony and were witnesses. Needless to say, we made two wonderful friends who will forever be apart of our lives.
I agree with all the previous comments and won’t repeat, but I will say we liked the location, the building, the pool, the views and only wished Roy and Luis could have accommodated us for both weeks. You cannot ask for more sincere and knowledgeable hosts, or a better location in Buenos Aires. I can’t wait to visit and stay with our friends again!
