Similar to Boston or NYC, the city of Buenos Aires is divided into neighborhoods, each with their own unique vibe and flavor.

We always stay in the Palermo neighborhood, which is packed with boutique hotels, cafes, restaurants, shops, and the best gay bars/nightclubs. The Palermo neighborhood is divided into two subsections: Palermo SoHo, and Palermo Hollywood. Both are great, and you can't go wrong either way.

Below are a few options for boutique hotels in Palermo (both SoHo and Hollywood). I’ve priced them from lowest to highest.

Another great idea is to pair up with others in the group and rent a AirBnB together!

- Hotel Clasico is a very, very nice place located a short 15-minute walk from our apartment. It runs about $120/night. It’s right across from a cute little restaurant with a sexy merman that Josh might enjoy!

- Be Hollywood is a chic little hotel just a block away from the above hotel and also only a 12-minute walk from our apartment. Rooms here run about $200/night.

- Casa Sur Palermo is literally right around the corner from our apartment in Buenos Aires. It’s very bougie and will run about $300/night. (For those with thanatophilia, this also happens to be the place where Liam Payne died earlier this year.)

For the foodies in the group, you're in for a real treat. I would compare Buenos Aires' culinary scene against any city in the world. For real!

Michelin just released their list of Michelin-star restaurants in Argentina last year, and you can easily have the best dining experience of your life at any of these restaurants while spending less than $100/person. Try doing that in Boston.

Here are just a few of our favorite restaurants for dinner, as well as a couple brunch/breakfast recommendations.

Dinner:

- Don Julio

- La Reve

- Nino Gordo

- La Carniceria

Brunch:

- Pani (loc. El Salvador 4827)

- Dulce Charlotte (loc. Bonpland 1903)

- Moshu Treehouse (loc. Guatemala 4570)

This city has everything (to be read in the voice of Stefon). History, architecture, shopping, clubbing, dining, you name it!

For those interested in going out at night, tag along with us. But be forewarned - we won't even step into a club until 1am, and likely leave around 5am.

Other daytime/evening activities include:

- Visit Evita's grave at La Recoleta Cemetery (open daily)

- Browse the San Telmo Market (open daily, but Sundays are best)

- Relax in the city's Rose Garden (open daily)

- Tour the Teatro Colon (one of the world's most beautifully designed opera houses)

- Attend a Dinner & Tango show (a bit cheezy, but still super fun!). Also, the one I linked here is the ritziest of them all. I can easily recommend other options that are just as good but without the hefty admission fee.
