One hundred and sixty-five rooms across the restored 1934 Duhau Palace (the Belle Époque mansion of the Duhau family) and a contemporary tower connected by gardens. Park Hyatt's Buenos Aires Maison.
"165 rooms across the restored 1934 Duhau Palace + contemporary tower. Park Hyatt's Buenos Aires Maison."
Palacio Duhau - Park Hyatt Buenos Aires opened in 2006 in Recoleta in a property that combines the restored 1934 Duhau Palace (the Belle Époque mansion of the Argentine Duhau family, who built the property as a private residence and lived there until the 1990s) with a contemporary tower added behind, connected by extensive gardens that span the entire city block. The architectural premise is the dual-building approach common to Argentine luxury hotels in heritage buildings — the historic Palacio provides the most coveted accommodations and the property's main public spaces, the contemporary tower provides additional room inventory and modern luxury infrastructure.
The 165 accommodations split between rooms in the restored 1934 Duhau Palace (with original architectural features preserved) and the contemporary Posadas Building (the modern tower behind). The Palace Suites are the most coveted category — set in the original 1934 Duhau family living quarters, with restored architectural features, original furniture in some categories, and substantial private outdoor terraces. The Royal Suite occupies the original Duhau master apartments and is the property's flagship single accommodation.
The grounds — the extensive Recoleta gardens connecting the Palacio and the Posadas Building (one of the largest hotel gardens in central Buenos Aires), the heated indoor swimming pool, the comprehensive Ahin Spa, the fitness centre, and the multi-restaurant complex — make Palacio Duhau comprehensively-equipped. The Ahin Spa is one of the larger luxury hotel spas in Buenos Aires.
Dining is at three main restaurants. Duhau Restaurante & Vinoteca is the headline modern Argentine fine-dining (with one of Argentina's deepest hotel cellars, including substantial Argentine Malbec, Cabernet, and Torrontés selections). The property's defining Argentine-luxury feature is its Cheese Room — a temperature-controlled cellar with over 50 Argentine and global cheeses, used for the property's signature cheese-and-wine programme. Gioia Restaurante & Terrazas is the Italian-Argentine. The Piano Nobile Bar is the cocktail venue in the original Palacio. Service is the consistent global Park Hyatt standard delivered by a heavily Argentine team. Palacio Duhau is the heritage-and-modern Park Hyatt Buenos Aires answer with substantial wine and cheese cellars distinguishing it from the other major Recoleta luxury hotels.

Palacio Duhau is one of Argentina's primary business-luxury hotels. The Recoleta location, the substantial meeting facilities (the original Duhau Palace ballroom is among the most-respected hotel event venues in Buenos Aires), and the Park Hyatt operational discipline work for executive corporate travellers. The Cheese Room is itself a distinctive Buenos Aires corporate-hosting venue.
