Alvear Palace Hotel
A landmark hotel located in the elegant Recoleta neighbourhood of Buenos Aires, the Alvear Palace Hotel radiates Old World charm. With its blueprints established in Paris, the Alvear Palace exudes classic European grandeur and has been serving distinguished international clientele since 1932. The style and sophistication of past eras is still discernible in the hotel’s majestic architecture, glittering chandeliers, gold leaf design touches and faultless 5* service.
197 rooms and suites are decorated with pure Parisian finesse. Louis XVI furniture, sumptuous French fabrics and Hermès toiletries compliment the hotel’s Gallic flair, whilst state of the art technology, 24 hour butler service and spacious marble bathrooms provide modern comfort. Daily bouquets and bowls of fresh fruit are special touches, whilst complimentary clothes pressing and unpacking on arrival ensures that you will settle in immediately. For authentic apartment living we recommend the amply proportioned Royal Suite, boasting an opulent reception room, plush living room, dining room, study and kitchen. Two Italian botticino marble bathrooms feature a sauna and LCD televisions, whilst the suite is adorned with prestigious Argentine artworks and the finest French fabrics and upholstery.
The gastronomic scene at the Alvear Palace is also infused with classic French delicatesse. La Bourgogne is a refined, award-winning French restaurant serving melt in the mouth steaks and with accompanying boutique selling freshly baked bread and delicious pastries. Reserve a table for afternoon tea at the genteel L’Orangerie and devour warm scones with a steaming cup of exclusive Alvear Blend tea. Sumptuous breakfast buffets are also served here; don’t miss the chance to wash down sticky dulce de leche cookies with French champagne! The Lobby Bar and the Cigar Bar are urbane and sophisticated, with dark wood panelling, exquisite cocktails and Havana cigars.
During the day escape to the light-filled spa with its array of pools, saunas and steam rooms. Walk the ‘Sensations Path’, a stimulating carpet of pebbles and bubbling water. Tailored spa treatments and a cutting edge fitness centre will cater to your every need and desire. Ask the concierge to arrange rounds of golf or a few chukkas on the polo field before exploring cosmopolitan Buenos Aires by night. Tango shows, football matches and the buzzing nightlife of bohemian Palermo are all guaranteed to get pulses racing.
