Having travelled to Buenos Aires for a long stay before (which involved exploring almost every museum and historic site in town!), I wanted to stay in Palermo Soho for this short stay. Palermo Soho has residential areas, boutiques, restaurants, cafes and wine bars. The apartment was spacious, clean and safe. An armed security guard is present 24/7 at the entrance of the apartment building. Check in and check out was done through a security guard at the gate. The neighborhood is perfect for a stroll through the nearby Biopark, Botanical Gardens and Japanese Gardens. Or one can stroll in the opposite direction to enjoy the cafes and restaurants. If you want to be closer to all of the historical sites by walking or a short cab ride, than stay in Recoleta or San Telmo or Centro or Puerto Madero. My previous long stay was in Recoleta for the better part of a month.
