Expert Review
Origins
Sitting within a former grain mill built in 1902 by Bunge y Born, the derelict brick El Porteño was rescued from demolition. In 2004, Argentine visionary Alan Faena—partnering with Philippe Starck—transformed it into a theatrical, art-filled hotel, planting the seed for Puerto Madero’s Faena District and cultural revival
The Review
Walking into Faena is like stepping onto a cinematic stage: red velvet curtains, crystal chandeliers, and avant-garde art greet you at every turn. The lobby buzzes with creative energy—a living gallery curated by Alan Faena himself. Your room is pure Starck spectacle: rich reds, Arabescato marble bathrooms, and Egyptian cotton linens that whisper elegance
Afternoons melt into evenings at the Poolbar, where the crown-sculpted fountain and city skyline play backdrop. Before dinner, slip into the Library Lounge for live jazz beside tufted leather sofas and a candelabra glow. At night, the intimate El Cabaret theater erupts with Rojo Tango, a fiery dance and dinner spectacle that cements Faena’s reputation for drama and style
You’ll discover hidden delights too: subterranean La Cava, where private tastings feel like moonlit rites; and the spa’s private hammam baths scented with lavender steam. From theatrical arrival to decadent farewell, Faena delivers a Buenos Aires experience that’s part art, part indulgence—and all utterly unforgettable
