The Alvear Palace Hotel is the grande dame of Buenos Aires, a belle-époque palace opened in 1932 on Avenida Alvear in the elegant Recoleta district, its Louis XV and XVI interiors, Empire furniture and marble halls making it the most European of the city's grand hotels. For nearly a century it has been the address of choice for royalty, presidents and society.
The dining is refined and characterful. The Alvear Grill serves premium meats over quebracho fire under chef Leandro Di Mare; L'Orangerie offers a splendid breakfast and international buffet; the Lobby Bar has been a society meeting place since 1932; and the 11th-floor Alvear Roof Bar takes in sunsets over Recoleta.
For a grand, European-style Buenos Aires stay, the Alvear is a benchmark.
