Faena Buenos Aires is where the brand began, set within a converted early-twentieth-century grain mill in the city's Puerto Madero district. It was here that Alan Faena and Philippe Starck first defined the theatrical aesthetic that would travel to Miami Beach and New York.
The dining and entertainment are woven together. El Mercado serves market-to-table Argentine cooking from an open kitchen, Bistró Sur offers a relaxed bistro and bar, and El Cabaret is the theatrical home of the Rojo Tango show, a supper club where dinner and performance share the same red-velvet room.
For a stay steeped in Buenos Aires and in the origins of the brand, the original Faena remains the most atmospheric of them all.
