Mr & Mrs Smith

Mr & Mrs Smith have just returned from a stay at this Argentina boutique hotel, and as soon as they've unpacked their tango shoes and jars of dulce de leche, a full account of their South America luxury city break will be with you. In the meantime, just to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick postcard from Home Hotel in Buenos Aires…

Staying at Home Hotel is the easiest way to feel like a real Buenos Aires porteño (local). Located on a quiet street among the cobbled pavements, lilac jacaranda trees and historic houses of the sprawling Palermo Hollywood district, guests can pretend they’re residents of these cool, cutting-edge parts.

And this is a home they’d be proud of. Bright sunshine streams through the part-open building onto the clean white and wood inside. Aside from the floral, vintage Scandinavian design, eco credentials and tailor-made spa products, the big gun is the grounds. The set-back and secluded garden is immaculately kept, with neat jasmine- and fern-dotted lawns, and a wood-flanked pool with sunloungers sporting the signature blooming print. The laid-back luxe will have you seeking out the deeds in no time.
