Pullman Rosario

We stayed overnight at the Pullman Rosario City Center Hotel and Casino on the way to and from Chilvilcoy. If you ever find yourself passing through Rosario, it's a nice place to stay. The hotel is conveniently located just off the highway. The rooms were nice and spacious and we enjoyed the restaurant. The casino was in a different building so there was no smoke and it was relatively quiet. They also had a really nice sauna which I always enjoy. The massages in the spa were about 30 usd for 50 min.

As a side note, prices in Argentina for imported items like clothing and electronics are more expensive than we would pay at home, but for essentials like food, medical care, and education, prices are much less expensive. Public medical care and education at all levels are completely free. You can choose to pay for private medical care but compared to the US it's still very inexpensive. I paid 10 dollars to see a doctor in Santa Fe. She spent a half hour with me and ordered imaging (ultrasound and x-rays) which cost another 20. Self care treatment like waxing, massage, manicures and such are between 5-10 USD outside of the large hotels and spas.

We didn’t venture into Rosario, in part because we didn’t want to take the time, but also we heard there was not much to see there and that is not considered safe for tourists.Read more
