Local police said the 31-year-old fell into the courtyard of the Casa Sur Hotel in the Palermo neighbourhood of Buenos Aires, before medics confirmed his death.
According to police in the capital, officers were initially responding to reports "of an aggressive man who may have been under the effects of drugs and alcohol".
In audio from a call made by hotel staff to the emergency services, and being widely reported, a staff member asked for assistance for a guest they said whose "life may be in danger".
The person on the call also told the operator that the guest was "trashing the entire room" adding: "We need you to send someone, please".
