PB hotel design editorial

Puerto Madero was Buenos Aires at its most aspirational — a derelict nineteenth-century dockland reinvented as a gleaming financial and residential quarter over roughly two decades, and it is precisely this context of reinvention that gives the Alvear Icon Hotel & Residences its defining tension. The 55-floor tower, clad in a warm limestone base that gives way to a tapering glass curtain wall above, carries the monumental street presence of a traditional grand hotel while its upper geometry belongs entirely to contemporary Buenos Aires. The entrance colonnade, visible in the images, deploys oversized stone pilasters and deep-set bronze doors — a deliberate architectural signal that this is the Alvear Palace's spiritual successor on the waterfront, even if the building language is entirely new. Inside, the interiors navigate the same territory between classical and contemporary. Guest rooms are finished in warm oak wall panels, taupe upholstered headboards, and cognac leather benches on patterned broadloom — striped throw cushions and sepia panoramas of old Buenos Aires harbour anchoring the sense of place without tipping into nostalgia. The upper-floor restaurant wraps its curved glazing around Río de la Plata views, dark marble tabletops and nailhead leather seating framed against floor-to-ceiling glass that makes the river feel close at dusk. Higher still, a dark-tiled indoor pool sits within a colonnaded pavilion open to the sky on two sides, the water surface mirroring clouds above the city's roofline.

Alvear Icon Hotel & Residences Reviews

"My sister and me wanted a great place to stay in Argentina for 2 nights. My sister selected Alvear Icon just on a whim and it paid off. The reviews were mixed but we took a chance and were not disappointed. Valentina you are a star. While I have not found people to be very welcoming in Argentina, Valentina was welcoming and most of all, she was a consummate professional in how she carried out her duties. The rooms were large, clean and well maintained. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to others. The only downside I found is that many people in Argentina, unless they have to, don’t engage with people who don’t look like them. On our first day, while waiting to check in, my sister and I sat in the Lobby Bar for more than 30 minutes and none of the hosts came to our table. We assumed it was an oversight. To test the hypothesis, we visited the Lobby Bar the second day, and again, no one came to our table. I got up and went to the bar and it was then that we were acknowledged by a lovely young lady whose name escapes me. Mind you, some of the male hosts looked at me directly and simply avoided us. To the leadership at Alvear, I would recommend a course in cultural competency for people whose jobs are customer facing. I don’t know their lived experiences, but we are all people living this human experience with none superior to the other."
