I liked the location, the decor was mildly interesting, the food was great. I also liked all the pretty, young and seemingly unattached girls that flock to the bar at night.

I didnt think it was worth the price. I didnt like that the TV remote and switch for the blinds didnt work. I'm not sure the whole "personal concierge" thing works either.

It has the South Beach, Miami feel to it: pretty to look at and a certain edgy excitement, but tries way to hard to be cool. Note to the staff: working in a hotel and wearing a tuxedo doesnt make you important---lighten up.

It gets an A- in my book! Superb and magical experience! My husband and I absolutely loved all the public spaces and overall feel of this hotel. It's ultra hip and you feel so much like a super cool rock star. You just want to hang out here and maybe skip a walking day in Buenos Aires. The location is also fantastic! It's in Puerto Madero....a new development full of hip restaurants just a walk away. At the hotel, the ambience is cool, the people are slick and the overall vibe is tragically chic. Superb service, gorgeous restaurants, delicious food (amazing breakfast included!) and totally hip areas all throughout . People watching is a sport at this hotel. It's too much fun! There is ONLY one thing that i really felt compelled to write about because it drove me nuts. What is up with the bathroom design and the lack of practical storage space in the guestrooms? My husband and I arrived into our room and started unpacking and quickly realized that the closet would barely fit a few of my clothes. My poor husband had to keep his clothes in his suitcase throughout our stay. Before you knew it, our clothes started piling up in the 2 chairs in our room. Our room started looking like a mess after 3 days.The bathroom storage space is very poorly designed. You simply can't have 2 people in there at the same time and barely have room to put your toothbrush in. The sink area is very minimal and there are no drawers or shelves. You definitely need shelves for your toiletries and hooks for your towels and bathrobes. Everytime I got out of the shower, I did not know where to put my clothes, robe or towel. The floor was my only solution. Now can you picture tragically hip people putting their towel and robe on the floor? Nope, I don't think so!!!! So our room always looked like a mess becaus we simply did not have a place to put our stuff. It's one of those minimally designed rooms but soo not practical! With some practical hooks and cleverly placed shelves and drawer additions and perhaps an additional dresser in the rooms, these issues could be easily resolved. The rooms are spacious so there's definitely room for these "practical" additions. Other than that, our experience at Faena was sublime! I soo recommend it!

It´s a hotel more adequate for young people.
The staff was numerous but with a lack of experience.
The breakfast was excellent and served at the beautiful decorated "El Mercado".
The rooms were big but the Philipe Starck´s decoration reduced a lot the available space. Nevertheless, the touch of this designer is impressive mainly in the public areas.
We spent three nights at BA and it was short for this lovely city and we recommend at least one more night.
The hotel is located at Puerto Madero, a new area of the city with modern buildings by international architects, very safe and with good restaurants.

I would agree with some of the complaints about the bathrooms, they are not meant for two people but the other amenities, actual site, decor, room services, service overall, restaurants in the hotel all made up for it.

We spent two weeks in Argentina and just being able to stay at the Faena for 3 nights was the highlight of the trip. If you visit Buenos Aires and don't stay it is worth coming for a drink at the library bar or to take in the tango show. This place is worth seeing & experiencing if you are in Buenos Aires, period. It has a feel like no where else, the attention to design, and uniqueness are unmatched. Also we felt the service from the staff was on par with other world class resorts: e.g. Four Seasons.

Last thing I would say is this is one of the first places we visited where the web site photos don't even do the place justice.
