Art Hotel

COST:

<p><strong>The Hotel:</strong> Occupying a stately, renovated, century-old townhouse, the Art Hotel lives up to its name: the grand, high-ceilinged ground floor (which has a cozy library lounge and breakfast area) does double duty as a gallery, and each of the 36 clean-lined, wood-floored rooms is decorated with paintings, photos, and drawings by Argentine artists.</p> <p><Strong>The Locale:</strong> The posh, tree-lined district of Recoleta is home to Buenos Aires's National Museum of Fine Arts; the architecturally spectacular Recoleta Cemetery (burial place of Eva Perón); and many of the city's five-star (and five-dollar-sign) lodgings. Avenida Santa Fe, one of the city's toniest shopping strips, is just a five-minute stroll from the hotel. </p>
