Fodor's Expert Review La Cayetana Hotel Boutique
México 1330, Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires, 1097, Argentina
This reformed casa chorizo—named such because the connected rooms resemble the links of a chorizo sausage—dates back to 1820, a fact that won't escape you as you enter the long, open-air entrance with plants and fountains on the left and rooms on the right. Each of the rooms is decorated in a different color scheme; some have sky-high ceilings, while others have quaint alcoves and lofts; all sit behind imposing wooden doors. Other boutique properties offer more amenities and luxury for the same price, but stay here to revel in the charm of Buenos Aires' past.
PROS
- a cozy common area and well-stocked library are perfect for relaxing and reading
- a <i>parrilla</i> (grill) is available if you feel like trying your hand at an Argentine <i>asado</i> (barbecue)
CONS
- a bit off the beaten path
- the neighborhood can be dodgy at night, so take a taxi
