Choosing a Buenos Aires Neighborhood

Why go

Recoleta suits museum access and formal avenues; Palermo offers parks, dining and later evenings; San Telmo places colonial streets and weekend market life close at hand. The Microcentro is efficient for civic landmarks but quieter after office hours, while Puerto Madero provides open waterfront walking at a higher price point. Choose around the activities you will repeat, then use the Subte or buses for the rest.

Useful to know
