Faena Hotel Buenos Aires

The Faena Hotel in Puerto Madero is one of the most spectacular hotel properties in South America — a visionary creation by designer Philippe Starck and hotelier Alan Faena, housed in a converted grain warehouse on the waterfront. El Cabaret, the Faena’s theatrical dining and performance space, and Los Fuegos, the fire-driven restaurant from chef Francis Mallmann, together make this a destination unto itself. The champagne list across the hotel’s venues is impressive and the atmosphere is unlike anywhere else in Buenos Aires — a seductive blend of old Argentina and avant-garde glamour.
