What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
the Recoleta Grand feels thoroughly fresh and modern with pastel-hued rooms finished with abstract prints and light wood furnishings.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Jacaranda-lined avenues lead to Recoleta Cemetery and the cultural center, with traditional cafes scattered along surrounding blocks.
The rooms
Beds rest on red velvet frames against geometric wall coverings, set over alternating dark and light parquet floors.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
White loungers line the seasonal rooftop pool, looking out across glass windscreens toward the Recoleta skyline.
The spa & gym
Restaurant
The Atrium
Tables sit over checkerboard floors beneath an ornate balcony, where the kitchen serves porteña dishes beside an indoor waterfall.
The 142 rooms, including six suites, lean into a retro aesthetic that's surprisingly fun—geometric wall coverings behind beds set on velvet red frames, curvy desks, and period-inspired lighting
At the table
Café de Prensa pours specialty coffee beneath a bright skylight, and the mansion salons serve cocktails and intimate dinners.
How it began
Built in 1922 for a former agriculture minister, the protected mansion is preserved beneath an engineered bridge supporting the modern tower.
