A press release from Argentina's National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor's Office No 16 said it would be investigating the incident as an "inconclusive death" after the conclusions of the report.
Payne's family told the PA news agency in a statement, issued via a spokeswoman, that they were "heartbroken" and added: "Liam will forever live in our hearts and we'll remember him for his kind, funny and brave soul."
The prosecutor's office said five witnesses were questioned in order to reconstruct what happened on October 16 at the CasaSur Hotel in the Palermo area of Buenos Aires.
