“Quirky ... but terrific”

Reviewed 9 April 2013

Fun experience ... from the trendy pool area, to the uniquely laid out rooms. But it is quirky --- the bathroom area is comprised of glass walls (with curtains) with the shower & toilet area in frosted glassed areas. The hotel staff were very accommodating and willing to go the extra mile to assist the hotel guests (including opening the... More

“Second chances”

Reviewed 12 March 2013

In life everybody deserves a second chance. Although my first stay at the Faena was far from being a disaster I expected a lot more, since they are a member of the Leading Hotels of the World chain (and charge accordingly). When I arrived I discovered that I was upgraded to the Executive room. If you're stying in one, just... More

The staff is very friendly and corteous. All the bars and restaurants serve great, great food. Talk to Matias, the Library Lounge barman, he'll surprise you with a special drink choice. Try El Mercado breakfast, it's really amazing (dulce de leche!). Rooms are beautiful and very cozy. I loved it!

“Not worth it for the money.”

Reviewed 2 March 2013

The hotel itself is beautiful but the the room I got was small and not really confortable. If you pay over 600 a night, you expect a top room, no less. The food and bar are really nice and I dont have a complain about either. If you choose to go, make sure you get a nice room.
