Arriving at Casa-Kohli is much like entering an oasis. A wonderfully restored textile factory that is reminiscent of a Spanish Colonial hacienda, the rooms are well-featured with ornaments whence emerge an illuminating aesthetic that inspires. Located in the heart of San Telmo, which is the spiritual centre of Buenos Aires, Casa-Kohli is metres from great food, eclectic bars, one block from the subway, and just four blocks from Plaza Dorrego. It is quiet, tranquil and full of light. The bed is comfy, the kitchen well-appointed, and the entry a garden of eden, while the hosts, Emilio, Flavia and Ros, are simply lovely, intelligent, engaging and extremely helpful.

Having lived in Buenos Aires for five of the past nine years, this is by far my favourite apartment in all this time. So it is with tremendous pleasure that I may recommend Casa-Kohli to anyone pursuing a true sense of bohemian life, whether you wish to stay for two days or two months; I stayed for three months this time 'round and will most certainly return. Moreover, I trust that you will no doubt feel the same!
