Where should I stay in Buenos Aires City?
‘What district should I choose for my vacation in Buenos Aires city,’ is a provocative question that both our guests (travelers) and our advisors sometimes pause to ponder. Buenos Aires Stay Luxury, the British Property &Travel Consultancy in Buenos Aires offers a no-nonsense view of Buenos Aires City and its various barrios (districts or neighborhoods).
Only you can decide what ‘floats your boat’ and we hope that our balanced information helps you reach the best decision for your personal wants and needs.
Firstly, we can best help your decision with a quick Buenos Aires geography lesson. The province of Buenos Aires is huge and encircles the autonomous city of Buenos Aires or Capital Federal. It houses nearly 50% of the country’s population!
The city area or Capital Federal covers an area of only 77 square miles and the tourist area is a strip of Buenos Aires barrios that hug the Rio del La Plata from Belgrano in the north to La Boca in the south. So wherever you stay, you will be quite central. However, the greater metropolitan area is a whopping 1500 square miles.
Moving north to south, we will briefly describe the landmark barrios of Buenos Aires. Simply click our links to find more detailed information written by tourists for tourists:
Belgrano
Belgrano apartments are upscale in a barrio that combines a charming blend of Recoleta’s architecture, Puerto Madero style luxury apartment blocks and Palermo’s young vibe. This is a fabulous leafy barrio where travelers can enjoy the best ice cream in Buenos Aires, and explore burgeoning Chinatown. Belgrano’s fast-pace commercial zone is located on Avenida Cabildo, which is approximately 20-minutes by subway (Subte) to El Centro. If you are tourist by day and a quiet bunny by night, then Belgrano is safe haven with a suburban feel. You will find peace and quiet here nestled away from Buenos Aires main tourist traps. This also a great barrio for its closeness to Las Cañitas or wider Palermo, which are nearby.
Palermo
Palermo apartments and Palermo Buenos Aires, the largest barrio in the north of Buenos Aires City (Capital Federal), are currently the travelers’ first choice for quality luxury apartments in Buenos Aires. Quality apartment blocks and tree-lined residential streets of wider Palermo, Palermo Chico and Palermo Hollywood blend wonderfully with the hip, young, and happening low-rise Palermo Soho and upscale and modern Las Cañitas. The neighborhoods benefit from cute cafes, abundant chic boutiques, first-class gourmet cuisine, and a happening nightlife. With many divergent neighborhoods, wonderful garden squares and the Bosques de Palermo, the Hippodrome, zoo, planetarium and botanical garden, this barrio is truly a rare gem and Palermo’s grand family of neighborhoods. As such this area is highly recommended at the most sought out neighborhood for our luxury Buenos Aires apartments and houses.
Las Canitas
Our Las Cañitas apartments are located in modern apartment blocks in one of Buenos Aires’ recently renewed barrios, which is the current epitome of trendy-chic.
Exclusive luxury properties and quality bistros define Las Cañitas as yet another thriving part of Palermo. With grand-openings occurring constantly and an eclectic international community, Las Cañitas is quickly becoming one of the Buenos Aires most popular and sought after neighborhoods.
