A listed Art Deco tower, revamped in impeccable taste and reopened in 2003 as a grand-scale belle époque hotel, The Sofitel is the latest five star addition to Buenos Aires. The gloriously ornate glass roofed entrance lobby provides a fitting first impression to this comfortable and friendly hotel.

The 144 rooms have been sympathetically and stylishly created from the original building. The hotel's restaurant 'Le Sud' is one of the city's finest restaurants, justly famous for its Provencal classics, while the cosy and intimate Second Empire-style bar and library are a great place to relax with either a book or cocktail.

Situated on one of the city's charming 'half moon' streets alongside antique shops and galleries in the picturesque downtown area of Retiro, just about everything worth visiting in BA is within walking distance.
