Four Seasons Hotel Buenos Aires

Four Seasons Hotel Buenos Aires is in the heart of Recoleta and joins two buildings: La Mansión Álzaga Unzué, an early 20th-century house in the French style, and a 13-storey tower whose interiors keep to the same Belle Époque mood. The MICHELIN inspectors give it Two Keys and single out the mansion's suites, while the rooms and suites in the tower have marble bathrooms and views across the river and the city, the building standing taller than most of its neighbours. The mansion holds the Royal and Presidential Suites, and other categories include Mansion-View Rooms and E-Lounge Rooms with their own lounge. Elena, the main restaurant, serves steak and seafood around a courtyard, and Virtuoso notes it has been named among Latin America's 50 Best; Nuestro Secreto keeps the asado tradition in the gardens, and the Pony Line Bar is known for its cocktails and burger. The spa in Recoleta has private treatment rooms and hydrotherapy, and Virtuoso lists a heated outdoor pool. The MICHELIN inspectors add that its old-world manner and polished service bring heads of state and famous guests back again and again.
