Our Neighborhood: Palermo – Palo Santo Hotel Buenos Aires

Palermo

Palermo is the neighborhood we chose for a reason. Its sidewalks are wide and tree-shaded, its cafés spill onto the pavement, and its culinary scene is one of the most interesting in Latin America — not just by Buenos Aires standards. For those looking for a boutique hotel in Palermo Hollywood, this part of the city is something specific: a place where local life happens at street level, and where the rest of Buenos Aires is genuinely easy to reach.

Palermo's parks, Distrito Arcos, and the heart of the porteño dining scene are all within walking distance. We're also a short ride from the D subway line and the Metrobús, and there are bike lanes right outside — you can borrow one of our complimentary bicycles.

A few things worth knowing before you arrive:

Acclaimed restaurants, and specialty coffee roasters within a five-minute walk

Independent design stores, art galleries, and weekend markets

Direct access to the parks, running paths, and the BA EcoBici bike-share network

Palermo Hollywood

he area is filled with restaurants of every kind. You’ll find some of the city’s most prestigious tables as well as more casual options. From elegant fine dining and steakhouses to ethnic cuisine, old-fashioned cantinas, and pizzerias — the choices are endless. Many places make the most of outdoor space: charming tables under shady plane trees, peaceful patios, and sunny terraces.

We are always happy to share our restaurant recommendations so you can enjoy Palermo’s vibrant culinary scene!

Bosques de Palermo

Bosques de Palermo — officially Parque Tres de Febrero — is the city’s green lung. Covering 400 hectares and home to more than 12,000 trees, it is Buenos Aires’ largest parkland. It includes a rose garden, several lakes, a planetarium, a former zoo, a museum, the Japanese Garden, and numerous invaluable sculptures.
