Frommer's "Overall, for a small hotel, it has a lot of public space, including a lobby with leather sofas leading to an outdoor patio garden." Full review
Lonely Planet "One of the slickest places to stay in Palermo is this modern, minimalist hotel that’s heavy on glass, wood and metal accents." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Bare pine floors, stainless steel furnishings, and gravel and bamboo give this minimalist hotel a quiet, Zen-like quality."
Time Out "This venue ticks all the boutique boxes: bare pine flooring; a Zen-like gravel and bamboo-shoots decor scheme; a 1,500-square-foot (140-square-metre) rooftop terrace, a sauna and a massage parlour." Full review
Star Service "The contemporary design and hip atmosphere keep North Americans (especially) knocking at the proverbial front door." Full review
BlackBook "A single-digit amount of rooms makes Five the most miniature of Palermo Soho's boutique hotel options."

Concierge ""It's not just a hotel," the people who run this monstrous property in chic Puerto Madero Este... will tell you, "it's a universe." They may have a point."
Insight Guides "This landmark property, with its long, red-carpeted corridors, Miami Vice-style pool bar and molecular-cuisine restaurant... is a feast for the senses."
DK Eyewitness "Rooms are simply yet tastefully furnished Art Deco-style, with mirror-paneled cupboards and velvety carpets."
Rough Guide "Buenos Aires’ hotel for the in-crowd, this former grain-storage building has been given a serious Philippe Starck makeover and now has a belle époque jazz bar."
Time Out "Richly red and decadent, sleekly white and contemporary, and designed by Philippe Starck, this opulent, lavish lodging is cocooned in the shell of a red-brick former grain silo." Full review
Star Service "Three kilometers from the Microcentro area, this unusual and innovative property is the polar opposite of the Four Seasons and Alvear Palace, a contrast of new money versus old." Full review
BlackBook "High concept Phillipe Starck-designed rager in historic grain silo sits super pretty on the waterfront."
Forbes Travel Guide 4 Stars
"The red brick exterior of Faena Hotel Buenos Aires projects a low profile, but the interiors of the luxury hotel are bathed in rich reds and black marble, creating a sexy, dramatic ambiance." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"Located in a renovated Puerto Madero storage mill, this Philippe Starke–designed boutique fantasy is more than just a place to stay." Full review
Afar Magazine "Guests are introduced to the hotel creators’ own ideas of luxury, where black marble meets claw-foot tubs and red velvet meets white leather." Full review
