More about Argentina costs
Travel cost to Argentina became cheap since its 2001 economic collapse. Years after, the economy has stabilized, with inflation allowing prices to rise. Despite the increase, costs are still affordable especially for travelers converting euros or pounds. The country's official currency is the peso (ARS), which comes in denominations of 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100. The exchange rate is about 3.85 ARS (1.02 USD) to US $ 1 and 5.20 ARS (1.37 USD) to 1.00 EUR (1.44 USD).
A budget of 60.00 ARS (15.82 USD) to 75.00 ARS (19.77 USD) daily lets you stay in a hostel room and eat in non-tourist restaurants. Midrange travelers can survive on 160.00 ARS (42.18 USD) to 200.00 ARS (52.73 USD) a day in areas outside the expensive cities. Comfortable accommodations in the provinces start at 90.00 ARS (23.73 USD). The expensive cities Buenos Aires and Patagonia will cost about 180.00 ARS (47.46 USD) for decent double hotel rooms. Meals are very affordable in places outside Patagonia. Pasta dinners can be as low as 8.00 ARS (2.11 USD) while a gourmet meal will cost about 90.00 ARS (23.73 USD). Cheap meals in Patagonia start at the price of 18.00 ARS (4.75 USD).
