1. History

The hotel opened in 1992 as the Park Hyatt Buenos Aires.

The hotel has 165 guest rooms, including 49 suites. They are contained in two wings. The 12-story main tower wing and the historic French Renaissance-style mansion wing, which houses the suites. The Mansion has a stone façade and was built in the Belle Époque style as a wedding gift from Mr. Felix Alzaga Unzué to his wife Elena Peña in 1920. It remains one of the most architecturally significant mansions in the Recoleta area. The hotel underwent a $49 million renovation that was completed in 2013.

Pereda Palace

The Pereda Palace is an old manor located in front of the Plazoleta Carlos Pellegrini, at the beginning of Avenida Alvear, in Buenos Aires, at number 1130 Arroyo St. It was built by the doctor and large farmer (122.000 hectares) Celedonio Tomás Pereda (1860–1941) and his wife María Justina Girado (1865–1942), member of a family of landowners as she was the granddaughter of Juan Elías Girado (1794–1858), owner of the ″Estancia San Juan″ (250.000 hectares). The building is currently the residence of the Ambassador of Brazil in Buenos Aires and headquarters of the Cultural Space of the Embassy. The remarkable urban group formed by the palace and its surroundings, like few places in Buenos Aires, reflect the strong influence exercised by French architecture in Argentina, especially during the first decades of the 20th century. They collaborate to reinforce the Parisian tonality of the place the irregular layout of the streets of the sector and the undoubted French image of several private residences, imposing and of admirable design.
