Philippe Starck's red-velvet fantasy in Puerto Madero — Alan Faena's vision fully realised, design-forward, theatrical, and unforgettable. The pool scene is legendary (book a cabana), El Bistro rivals the best parrillas, and the spa is by Starck himself; request a room overlooking the water. Summer for the pool scene, year-round for the design and dining, in a quieter neighbourhood than Palermo or Recoleta. It is a statement hotel in every sense — Starck's maximalist imagination given full rein, with a pool scene that has become a destination and a steakhouse that competes with the city's best. For design-led drama and a Puerto Madero base, it's singular.
