Is it worthwhile to rent a phone in Buenos Aires?

Upvote:1

Baires Apartments (a temporary rental and real state) offers phone rentals and, as you mention, they send it and pick it up for free (to/from the hotel, or to/from the airport).

The Cell phones are free of charge. You just pay the calls.

The rates are of course more expensive than a normal cellphone you can buy and top-up, but still not terrible:

Cellular rental: AR$ No Charge | Insurance: AR$ 19.00*

So local calls would be $1,50 pesos or, at today's change rate, 0.19 US Dollars.

Another company is For Rent Argentina, phones are also free but the price per minute doubles.
