Set in a converted early-twentieth-century townhouse in the quieter reaches of Palermo Hollywood, Home Hotel embraces minimalist Zen aesthetics: bamboo gardens, reflecting pools, neutral palettes, and an almost monastic calm that feels worlds away from the Buenos Aires bustle. The 18 rooms are spare and serene, with platform beds, natural materials, and rainfall showers. The small spa offers Asian-inspired treatments, and the pool is surrounded by bamboo and white loungers. The restaurant serves contemporary fusion cuisine heavy on seafood and vegetables—a refreshing change from Argentina's meat-centric default. Service is discreet and professional. It's the antithesis of Buenos Aires' baroque maximalism, which is precisely the appeal.

Insider Intel
Standard rooms are compact; upgrade to a suite for significantly more space and access to private terraces. The garden-facing rooms are quieter but the street-side rooms get better light.
Summer when the pool and gardens are most inviting, though the space is pleasant year-round. Weekday rates are often lower than weekends.
The aesthetic is very specific—if you prefer color and ornament, look elsewhere. The neighborhood is residential and requires taxis/Uber to reach central attractions. Breakfast included. The spa is small but treatments are excellent.
