Be it a morning coffee, a healthy lunch, or a quiet spot to read or catch up with friends, the Library Lounge offers the perfect setting. Overstuffed velvet sofas, sumptuous oriental rugs and crystal candelabras create a space that is at once elegant and intimate. True to its name, the Library Lounge is stocked with antique books, perfect for whiling away an afternoon with a glass of local wine or a cocktail.

TEA TIME IN THE LIBRARY LOUNGE Inspired by the English tradition, afternoon tea in the Library Lounge is an elegant way to relax and enjoy local Argentine delicacies. The menu includes a selection of finger sandwiches, pastries, scones, natural fruit juices and a wide variety of teas to tempt your palate.

Faena Hotel

Spectacular, contemporary and stylish, the Faena Hotel Buenos Aires is extraordinary. The utilitarian façade of the seven-story brick building, a turn-of-the-20th-century grain warehouse, belies the imaginative interiors created by Philippe Starck. Flourishes include unicorn heads on the walls, velvet curtains, crimson-upholstered chairs and crystal chandeliers. There is no reception desk; new arrivals are greeted by an “experience manager” who serves as a personal concierge throughout their stay. The rooms, many with city and Río de la Plata views, have lapacho-wood floors and arabasceto marble bathrooms. The outdoor pool is one of BA’s prime see-and-beseen spots. A sexy vibe imbues the sultry Library Lounge and El Cabaret, which host nightly tango performances.

Located in Puerto Madero, the city’s most exclusive gastronomic and business area, the hotel is surrounded by green parks and features unobstructed views. Awash in red velvet, the Faena cabaret invites you to step into 1920s Buenos Aires to witness Argentina’s finest tango show, Rojo Tango.
