Alvear Icon Hotel
About this hotel
Alvear Icon Hotel is the tallest wellness address on this list, a 32-floor tower with panoramic views over the city and the Río de la Plata from the newest, most developed part of Buenos Aires. The Wellness & Beauty Spa runs an indoor heated pool with a retractable roof, meaning it works in every season regardless of weather, alongside a sauna and steam bath. Rooms and suites favour bright, ample spaces with marble bathrooms, a Jacuzzi, and a separate shower box, a genuine step up from the compact bathrooms found at boutique addresses elsewhere in Palermo. The location trades the historic centre's density for Puerto Madero's newer skyline, one kilometre from Plaza de Mayo and a thirteen-minute walk from Cabildo for anyone who still wants the old town within reach.
