Those who appreciate a genuinely bespoke hotel, in idyllic natural surroundings.
Bariloche, Lake District, Argentina.
The thirty-three rooms have all the details you would expect from a boutique hotel, with unique artistic features conceived by contemporary Argentian designers. The colours are crisp and fresh, complementing the perfect views over the tranquil lake.
The award-winning restaurant features gourmet recipes from the hotel’s original owner, German aristocrat Baroness Ellrichshausen, and uses the best in fresh regional ingredients. There’s also a wine bar lined with paintings, and a 1700-bottle wine cellar. The hotel’s gym has a pool that spans inside and outside spaces, as well as a wood-paneled outdoor Jacuzzi, massage and sauna facilities.
Take to the water on El Casco Art Hotel’s cruiser, kayak directly from the private beach, or head further afield and brave one of Bariloche’s icy lakes. The alpine views can be enjoyed whilst horse-riding, mountain biking, or during a leisurely game of golf.
When strolling in the lakeside gardens you will find 24 sculptures, including those by the renowned Argentine sculptor Pablo Curatella Manes.
