About this property

Luxury Restored Parisian Penthouse perfectly located to see all of Buenos Aires

Beautifully restored penthouse apartment on the fourth floor of a Parisian-style building with only 8 apartments. Fantastic location to see Buenos Aires. The apartment was restored over 9 months to reclaim the grand living at the beginning of the 1900s. No expense was spared to recreate the rich feeling with the imported wood while still modernizing the kitchen and bathrooms. Weekly maid service included for longer stays. Furniture and linen upgrades were done in May 2022. Flexible check in and check out times to match your flights are available. We also can recommend a driver to be waiting for you at the airport.

Very high ceilings with ornate plaster work characterized by the wood detailing and original Pinotea Norwegian wooden floors which create a warm atmosphere. There is an entrance hall, separate lounge/living and dining room, a master bedroom with a luxury queen size mattress and bedding with an en-suite bathroom complete with Jacuzzi bathtub and shower.

Second bathroom 'loft-style' above the kitchen with a double bed and a half-bathroom. Designer kitchen with gas stove, dishwasher and refrigerator. Clothes washing machine as well. Living room has a Bose Wave stereo and cable TV with a Smart TV connected to the internet. High-speed wireless internet in the apartment. Mood lighting in every room. Air conditioned for summer and central heating (water forced radiators) in winter. There is an elevator (Parisian style wrought iron) so you don't have to walk up 4 flights to the top floor (unless you are working off all the great food in Buenos Aires).

How to Make Buenos Aires Even Better

Staying here was one of the highlights of my time in Buenos Aires. The apartment is beautiful. The bed is comfortable. The kitchen and apartment are well equipped. The location is convenient to grocery stores, lots of shopping, two Subte stations, and even language schools. Dave and Miguel are both attentive and helpful. I hope I'll get to stay here again!

True gem of an apartment hosted by amazing Dave

Comfortably located for visiting the diverse neighborhoods of BA, the apartment captures the Paris of the early 1900s, complete with an “ancient” open elevator that works perfectly. More relevant, perhaps, is that you could not wish for more attentive and helpful hosts than Dave and manager Miguel. Important to my wife and me, the firm bed was very comfortable, the WiFi was fast and reliable, the shower pressure great, the kitchen very adequate, and a good AC (summertime stay). The apartment has a spacious living room and dining room.

Five days in Buenos Aires

This apartment is all it was claimed to be in the ad: a beautiful and charming two bedroom (tho one bedroom is quite small) apartment, nicely furnished and equipped, in the heart of the Palermo district in BA. There's a small grocery store two doors down, a nice cafe across the street. Dave and Miguel kept in touch through a group chat on Whatsapp and they were very responsive and helpful at every step. Highly recommended.

Parisian style in BA in central location

We stayed in the apartment for two weeks, and had an impeccable stay. It is on the 4th floor or a nice building with elevator. The apartment is very central, walking distance to almost everything, and in a very good neighborhood. It is close to Ave Santa Fe, so it is not quiet, if this is what you are looking for. The owner as well as local agent are great to work with and very responsive. The apartment is very well equipped with all you need, stable internet that allows working from there also (whereas the apt. is not set up with a desk or table to work from). Bedroom is to the courtyard and there was no noise. Owner left book with great recommendations for BA. If you want to visit BA for vacation, this is a great place to stay.

Dave had a cab driver waiting for me at the airport, which made things easy for me. Miguel met me at the house and walked me through the place. The place is charming. There was everything you needed. It was clean and the wifi was fast and dependable. Restaurants and supermarkets are all within walking distance of the place. Good experience. I'd do it again.

Excellent!

The property was as described and as pictured in the photographs but was bigger and more charming than we had anticipated. We thoroughly enjoyed our ten nights in this apartment. It is in an excellent location close to bus and subway stops, shops, grocery stores and restaurants. Walking distance to Recoleta Cemetery, Jardin de Japones, as well as other parks in that same area. The apartment had a well stocked kitchen with all that we needed in order to prepare some of our meals. Shower worked well for us throughout our stay as did the washing machine. Dave was so easy to deal with and was readily available by email if we had a reason to contact him. He has a terrific House Book with all kinds of useful infromation about the city and its sights as well as lots of dining out suggestions. His team of Miguel and Hector made our arrival and departure easy. We loved our ten day stay in Buenos Aires and think that having the apartment made it feel like we were home! Absolutely will be recommending this aprtment and Dave to friends and family and would stay there again should we travel back to Buenos Aires some day.

About the host

Hosted by Dave Michayluk

Host profile image
I grew up in Canada and fell in love with Buenos Aires and the Argentine culture so decided to put some permanent roots down in Buenos Aires. I come back at least twice a year to visit friends and to keep experiencing the ever-changing city. I made it my personal goal to visit every one of the 'notable cafes' of Buenos Aires - the ones that have been around at least a hundred years. One is on the same street as the apartment. I travel a lot and love taking photos - you might even see some of Buenos Aires on my instagram account - https://www.instagram.com/davezphotoz/

Why they chose this property

The apartment is half of the top floor of a hundred year old Parisian-style building. When I started looking for a place this one jumped out and is definitely a very lucky find! After 9 months of restoration/renovation it is showing its full potential and I wish I could live here all year round. Great neighbors! Quiet at night but close to everything.

I use VRBO/Homeaway a lot and I hate all the hidden cleaning fees. We don't have any. Our maid comes before and after your visit and if you are around for longer than a week she will come by weekly.

What makes this property unique

This is the perfect location to visit Buenos Aires. Walking distance to Recoleta and the centre of Palermo, with restaurants and shopping at your door and great transport options. Park Las Heras is two short blocks away and you can walk to the botanical gardens, the zoo, the Evita museum, MALBA, the lakes of Palermo and there is an excellent hidden cafe for breakfast in the courtyard of another museum that is about 15 blocks away. So many hidden wonders and there is a continuously updated house guidebook that has my recommendations and many recommendations from past guests and friends. I'll email that in advance to help with your planning. Some of the restaurants (especially the closed door restaurants and the great steak houses) are often fully booked in advance so it is good to do some planning! I wish I had two stomachs when I come to Buenos Aires.

I take pride in ensuring that guests receive as much assistance as desired in helping with planning. My local manager will meet you at the property and also add his advice. He is also available for assistance throughout your stay.
