Algodon Mansion

Buenos Aires, Argentina
A 2009 renovation of Buenos Aires’ Algodon Mansion, in the city’s Recoleta neighborhood, upped the ante at the six-story Belle Époque gem. The New York-based owners of Algodon (also the forces behind the Mendoza-based Algodon Wine Estates) spared no expense. The 1912 now hotel comprises just 10 luxurious suites, and each is furnished with a cavernous limestone-and-marble bathroom—some even have grand pianos. The spa offers organic, wine-inspired treatments (the Algodon wine salt bath utilizes exclusive vintages from San Rafael, Mendoza) and at the restaurant, Chez Nous, chef Antonio Soriano serves a seasonal menu of dishes such as grass-fed lamb chops with Andean potatoes or Patagonian black sea bass with black-olive gnocchi.
Room to Book:
The Ambassadeur Suite on the first floor is the most spacious, and its terrace is set among jacaranda trees—a perfect place to enjoy a fresh scone from the in-house pastry chef at Chez Nous.
Insider Tip:
Round out your stay with a sunset tango on the rooftop; the hotel can arrange for lessons, complete with views of posh Recoleta’s French-colonial buildings.
