TRAVEL GUIDE

Buenos Aires moves between Belle Époque palaces and graffiti-lined Palermo streets, where century-old cafés sit blocks from natural wine bars and tasting-menu parrillas. Tango spills out of San Telmo's cobblestones as Recoleta's marble mausoleums give way to Puerto Madero's glass towers, a city as European as it is unmistakably porteño. It runs on mate — an unhurried ritual of shared yerba that turns any afternoon into something communal.

Where to stay

seafront classics and polished stays

For the best overall luxury stay, book Palacio Duhau - Park Hyatt Buenos Aires. It has the strongest mix of architecture, grounds, service, and sense of occasion. For a more theatrical, design-heavy weekend, choose Faena Hotel Buenos Aires. For old-world Recoleta glamour, Alvear Palace Hotel is the classic call. For a smaller boutique stay in Palermo, Be Jardín Escondido by Coppola is the best fit.
