Buenos Aires
book a hotel find a flight
(Argentina)


Live it up or cool it down in this hip-shakin' town.

More European than South American in flavour, Buenos Aires' heart boasts bustling streets, grand avenues, old-time cafes and stylish restaurants. The locals are renowned for their flair and cockiness, even in times of adversity. It's a city of tragedy and elation; a vibrant, cosmopolitan capital.


For the traveller, Buenos Aires delivers. Wander cobbled streets, marvelling at faded architectural glories and colourfully painted metal houses. Talk world politics and fútbol in atmospheric old cafes. Tuck into one of the famous Argentinian steaks to power a long night's partying.

Entertainment & Night Life
Asia de Cuba
  (club/disco)

Fuel up on a plate of the house sushi (which will also clear you of Asia's cover charge) before hitting the packed dance floor; the mix of eclectic dance music, sweaty bodies and scantily clad female show dancers have a way of keeping you cheering and dancing until the sun comes up. Best on Thursdays.

Bahrein
  (club/disco)

On Tuesdays this popular downtown spot offers up the best drum & bass in town, but weekends rock just as hard. Multi-floors, chill-out spaces and eclectic decor add to the vibe. The beats get faster as the night wears on.

Acabar
  (bar)

Check your cool at the door, grab a board game off the shelf and join the wackiness. With corrugated tin slapped on the walls, crystal chandeliers, leopard-print mannequins, multicolored pots and pans and over a hundred mismatched tables, the vibe is pure fun. The effect of house music on the revelry is perfect.
