Buenos Aires Hotels with Outdoor Pools

Fierro Hotel

With a temperate, subtropical climate, Buenos Aires is generally a good city to visit to visit all year round. But spring and autumn are the best times in terms of weather; seasons which bring glorious sunny days, perfect warm temperatures and an explosion of colourful foliage across the city. And in the hot months, it makes sense to opt for a hotel with an outdoor pool. After a day sightseeing in the hustle and bustle of the Argentinian capital, a dip is the perfect way to cool off – although you may not wish to leave your sunlounger at all! From rooftop pools with views and sleek design to properties with pools in lush gardens and elegant courtyards, enjoy some watery relaxation with our pick of the best Buenos Aires hotels with outdoor pools below.

For families

Casasur Bellini

  • The trendy and eco-friendly Palo Santo Hotel is replete with lush vertical gardens and contemporary art. It might seem grown-up in style, but children are welcome – suites work well for parents with a small child and/or baby, and the shallow rooftop pool is perfect for all ages.
  • Another eco-friendly design hotel in the heart of Palermo Soho, Mine Hotel Boutique has bright contemporary interiors, while the pool is set within wooden decking in a sun-trap courtyard. Baby cots are provided for children under two for free, and extra beds can be provided.
  • Fierro Hotel is very welcoming to children of all ages, with extra beds available. This sleek little boutique hotel in the heart of the buzzy Palermo district also has a roof terrace plunge pool with lovely cityscape views.
  • Located in a leafy residential part of town, CasaSur Bellini is fresh and contemporary with colourful, characterful style and most rooms can add an extra bed if you're travelling with kids in tow. Rooms with balconies overlook the long pool with sunloungers dotted around the edge.

For contemporary style

1828 Smart Hotel

  • Small but fabulous 1828 Smart Hotel has light, airy rooms with huge windows, and glam touches like an evening piano lounge. An outdoor heated swimming pool and small spa make for a pleasingly indulgent stay.
  • Hotel Pulitzer's pool is found on the seventh-floor rooftop, with a handful of chairs and sunloungers adjacent. Book this one for an extremely smart contemporary hotel in BA's financial district.

For a pool with a view

Be Hollywood

  • The small and seemingly unassuming Nuss Buenos Aires Soho is a well-located boutique hotel with a lovely splash pool and sunny terrace, which enjoy wonderful views at dusk. Compact rooms have a 'Scandi meets Spanish' vibe and fresh white palette.

  • In the neighbourgood of Palermo Hollywood, the pretty BE Hollywood! is a contemporary boutique hotel with a small rooftop pool and spacious deck that are open to guests during high season.

For a lovely garden

Home Buenos Aires

  • L'Hotel Palermo is a gem that genuinely feels secluded in the upbeat Palermo Soho. Uniquely quiet with a large garden, the fab rooftop terrace and pool bring St Tropez chic to Buenos Aires, with wooden loungers and good cocktails.
  • Set amongst verdant jasmine and ferns, the heated pool of Home Buenos Aires is a chic and picturesque spot in which to relax. Live DJ sets take place every Friday over the summer, bringing cool beach club vibes.
  • With three levels of gardens, a solar-heated pool and an outdoor kitchen, Jardin Escondido is set on a glorious terrace amidst lashings of greenery. A real oasis.

For lavish elegance

Four Seasons Buenos Aires

  • Offering a swim with a difference, Faena Hotel's pool has a glittering crown-shaped fountain at its centre. The dramatic, opulent hotel was designed by Philippe Starck, and features performance spaces which host everything from tango to art exhibitions.
  • Algodon Mansion is an extravagant townhouse hotel with a grand rooftop modelled on a Hollywood penthouse veranda, featuring a small pool and teak decks. A handful of loungers welcome guests who are waited on by their own private butlers. A very spoiling stay.
  • Four Seasons Hotel Buenos Aires comprises a Belle Epoque mansion and new tower. If you want to stay in Recoleta, this is the only outdoor swimming pool in the neighbourhood, and a heated one at that. The Roman-style settling and adjacent landscaped gardens make this a really memorable place.
