Hotel Madero, Buenos Aires, Argentina - Hotel Review | Condé Nast Traveler

"How did it strike you on arrival? Set at the southern end of Puerto Madero, this hotel is all steel and glass, and flooded in natural light. The lobby feels like a cool loft hangout, thanks to a pool table that plays center stage, modern art that hangs on the walls, and a mix of modern and funky furnishings in vibrant hues. Nice. What’s the crowd like? While Faena nearby attracts a moneyed but artsy crowd, Madero is more suited for those traveling for business, and perhaps families who want to be in a pedestrian-friendly neighborhood away from the bustle of the city. The good stuff: Tell us about your room. Rooms are spacious and continue the contemporary vibe set forth in the lobby, with dark wood floors and subdued furnishings in creamy colors—except for perhaps a Tulip chair in a vibrant red hue. Opt for a Corner Room, most of which have kitchenettes and balconies with awesome views of the docks. Anything stand out about other services and features? Whether it’s childcare, gyms, spas, even parking—whatever stuck with you. The White Bar has not only great sushi but also an impressive cocktail list and outdoor patio in which to enjoy a sundowner. The spa features a heated pool with retractable roof and a small gym. Bottom line: worth it, and why? Good bang for your buck if you want to stay in trendy Puerto Madero." - Celeste Moure
