I went on my honeymoon last October 2006 to Argentina instead of the normal beach resort full of newllyweds .This was one of the best decorated Hotels i ever been in. The staff are very friendly and helpfull always with smille on their face . The rooms are well decorated but they lack in one thing the normal rooms don´t... more

Stayed 3 nights here on honeymoon and the hotel itself was a definite highlight. The best hotel of the honeymoon and probably the best city hotel have stayed in. The entrance is stunning. We were greeted by excellent staff, check in was slick and efficient. The room was fantastic - glamorous, stylish, a huge comfortable bed, all the gadgets and... more

We were really looking forward to staying at Faena and decided that despite the price we'd make it a treat at the end of our stay in Buenos Aires. Sadly the place was all packaging and no content. The room was stingily small, the service was generally erratic and worst of all was the food. We had a very mediocre... more

look, this is a top luxury hotel and you pay top dollar for it. if money is no object, or you are looking to splurge, you cannot find any better than the Faena. It is like something out of a movie, and you are likely to find movie stars sitting about anyway. The rooms (at the lower level) are small,... more

I LOVED this place. The service was excellent, the room was beautiful, the pool was awesome and the spa was fantastic. If i could afford to i would stay here every time i visited Buenos Aires. more

Faena is a very interesting property with overall good service but not as polished or well informed as the concierge of a Four Seasons for example, tends to be. Sometimes these so called "hip hotels" can be very tiring, overboard, and even annoying.I don´t think Faena should be viewed as such much more as a permanent stage where you are... more

the Faena is the ideal place for young, happening hipsters. Mind you, the eqully hip older crowd will love it just as much and fit in perfectly. Fantastic decor, nice staff (a little improvement might be needed on speed but they did comp' our lunch when servce was too slow) and superd poor and ambiance. Done by the same guy... more

This is an incredibly opulent hotel. Luxury oozes out of every facility and service. We stayed for three nights in a suite - a room which was as large as most London flats - and enjoyed a marble bathroom, white leather sofas and gigantic TVs. The bed was also fantastic. Breakfast was an experience! It was always delicious, but the... more

This was the best hotel we've stayed in the world!!!!! We got married in Buenos Aires and stayed there 3 nights before our wedding and our wedding night. They just went way above and beyond everything to meet all of our needs. During our wedding night, my husband asked to switch rooms and prepare the room for when we got... more

This hotel is utterly schizophrenic. My wife and I experienced gracious, friendly service that went above and beyond the call of duty one moment - and then were snubbed by wait staff in the bar the next. There is definitely a feeling of, "You're not cool enough to stay here". This is problematic since, based upon what we observed, flabby... more
