The Vain Boutique Hotel is a boutique establishment that is favourable to one’s wallet and provides rooms that are uncomplicated yet attractive, as well as personal service and a charming patio that is hidden away. It is located in the centre of Palermo Soho, which is a vibrant neighbourhood, and it is within walking distance of stores, restaurants, bars, and cafes. Additionally, it is close to parks that are both lovely and ancient, and it has good transportation links.
It is a ten-minute walk to the green spaces of Palermo Soho, which include the lovely Botanical Gardens, which date back to the 18th century, and the transport hub of Plaza Italia in one direction. In the opposite direction, this trendy barrio is home to independent boutiques and galleries, such as those on Honduras, Gurruchaga, and Malabia streets, as well as the crafts and souvenirs that can be found at the weekend open-air market on Plaza Serrano.
Rooms
Taking advantage of the traditional characteristics of the property, which include lofty ceilings, warm oak floors and French windows, each of the fifteen contemporary rooms has been creatively furnished to create a unique atmosphere. They are a combination of vintage furniture and modern design, such as lampshades manufactured from recycled plastic, and they have splashes of colour that are derived from vibrant prints and creative artwork.
The beds are outfitted with clean white sheets. The restrooms are compact but immaculate, and they feature walk-in showers and sinks that save space, which are occasionally located outside of the bathrooms. Suites come with little balconies or terraces, and some of them even have jacuzzi baths. Standard rooms look out onto the central courtyard when they are available.
Services
In addition to providing maps and going out of their way to provide recommendations on what to see, where to eat, and how to get around, the staff members are friendly, professional, and helpful. They speak multiple languages. Water and fruit are provided at no cost during the day, and bicycles can be rented for ARS400 each day, which is equivalent to approximately £8.50.
Food and drinks
You can choose from the Americano, which includes juice, coffee, croissants, and eggs-to-order, or one of the specials such as eggs Benedict. The breakfast is served in the lobby, which is spacious and cheerful, and you have the opportunity to people-watch from the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Tea, coffee, and yerba mate are all accessible throughout the day, and instructions are provided on how to drink it in the traditional Argentine manner, which involves drinking it from a gourd that has a metal straw. This location also functions as a bar, where customers may purchase alcoholic beverages, soft drinks, and Fernet Branca, which is the most popular aperitivo in the country.
Less than a street away, there is a contemporary steakhouse called La Carnicería, which is one of the many excellent restaurants that can be found in the vicinity.
