Miravida Soho

The largest neighbourhood in Buenos Aires and one of the most popular, Palermo is divided into smaller quarters – all with their own distinct personalities – meaning there's something for every taste here. Shopping mecca Palermo Soho is lively and creative; Palermo Hollywood is named for its multitude of TV and film studios and is chock-a-block with fab restaurants. The sophisticated residential district of Palermo Chico is full of stunning houses and tree-lined streets; while Palermo Viejo is resplendent with old Spanish architecture, cobbled streets and lovely parks. When it comes to the best hotels in Palermo, small boutique hotels tend to make the accommodation scene here rather than the big chains, with some lovely spa and pool options and properties which make ideal crashpads for those exploring the sights nearby.

For contemporary style

Palo Santo

  • The chic rooms in Hotel Clasico feature chandeliers, arthouse photography and parquet flooring. The sophisticated restaurant Mooi is a lovely spot to dine in before heading out for a few drinks in the local bars nearby.
