My Secret Adventure (Part 4)

June 29, 2011

There is no secret that I have a crush, but the crush is on a hotel and not a person! In May, I had the honor of staying at Hotel Moreno (you can read about my stay here and here) and when my flight last week was changed unexpectedly and I found myself with an extra night in Buenos Aires, there was no other choice in my mind but to stay at Hotel Moreno yet again. It amazes me that this strikingly modern hotel with such surprisingly affordable rates is not the hottest place to stay in the city right now.

The attention to details is dazzling, but my favorite thing about Hotel Moreno, which sets it apart from every other boutique hotel, are the antique elevators. As you step inside, you feel as though you are being transported back in time to bygone era.

As I ascended the floors, passing by beautiful stained glass windows each telling a different story, I become more and more eager to see what my room would look like this time around. . .

If you should choose to stay at Hotel Moreno in the future, email General Manager Jeremías Meinardi (jeremias@morenobuenosaires.com) and mention my name and/or my blog and a special discounted rate will be given.

Love the stained glass and that lovely old-fashioned elevator. 🙂 Makes me think of the movie Charade. 🙂

How beautiful! I love hotels that look like “homes” – we stayed at a boutique hotel/mansion in Cartagena and it was one of my fav experiences!

I can see why you’ve fallen in love with the hotel. The attention to detail is quite impressive with plenty of character. It sure beats the dodgy hostel I stayed at when I was there.

You nailed it on the head, the attention to detail with plenty of character!!! Sorry that you stayed in a dodgy hostel! What barrio was it in?
