Hotel Boutique Raco de Buenos Aires

Description:

• Situated well enough off the beaten path to never, ever be stumbled upon by a casual visitor, the Racó offers a view of a different Buenos Aires – from the inside. Curious travelers ought to book one of 12 unique rooms (we suggest the La Boca-inspired duplex) at this gorgeous boutique hotel located just off of bustling Avenida Rivadavia in the heart of Almagro, one of the most central neighborhoods in Buenos Aires and home to a long stretch of the classic wooden-trolley subway line A as well as the grand cafe Las Violetas (go for afternoon tea) and a very high concentration of porteños. Rooms and common areas are decorated with an eclectic selection of Argentinean art from Catalan owner Julio's diverse collection, while the hotel decor is bright, cheery, and neat. Request breakfast on the pretty tile-floor patio or, should the weather disagree, right in your own cozy room.
