The Loft
San Telmo Loft is a quiet and romantic apartment in the heart of San Telmo, the most captivating barrio of Buenos Aires. San Telmo Loft is more than a furnished apartment; it’s a home. So many vacation rentals look like they were decorated with the odd pieces found in attics and garages, unwanted furniture stuck randomly in an apartment with zero consideration for space. In our apartments, the Loft and the Pad, we’ve focused on style and sought to match the hip, bohemian vibe that is San Telmo.
Tall ceilings and single futon in Living Room
The Loft is on the second floor of a characteristic turn-of-the-century building. Two blocks from Plaza Dorrego and two blocks from Puerto Madero, you’ll be within walking distance of two of the most in-demand neighborhoods of Buenos Aires (Google Maps). Read about why we love this neighborhood in our blog post, I Love San Telmo. And to learn more about Puerto Madero, check out Rowing in Buenos Aires and La Reserva Ecologica.
The sofa inspired the rest of the design.
The sofa divides the section with the kitchen, desk space, downstairs bathroom and laundry area from the living area which is ideal for relaxing with a book or listening to music. Every detail from paint on the walls to the appliances in the kitchen to the fabric of the sofa was handmade which gives it an intimate and personal touch.
There are sheets for this futon for a third person to sleep on if needed.
The kitchen is one of our favorite parts of the whole apartment. We love the bright colors and the long bar. If you’re like us and you enjoy cooking even while on vacation, you’ll love having the long bar where one of you can sit while the other cooks.
Colored tiles in the kitchen.
A spiral staircase leads to the bedroom and master bathroom (there is a second bathroom on the bottom floor). The parquet floors turns to a metal support letting in light from below and creating an airy, spacious ambiance and looking out onto the living room, its paintings, and windows.
The bedroom and the upstairs bathroom.
You’ll want to explore San Telmo’s Casas de Tango, small traditional restaurants known as bodegones, antique bars, and trendy shops. Day or night, San Telmo is full of activity.

Cheers,

Does the loft have 2 bedrooms???
The Loft, it is a magical place, and so are its wonderful owners..This place is amazing..such a wonderful energy, and helped us fall in love with Buenos Aires and make it a home..We came for just a short stay..and now cant seem to leave…Gonzalo, Natty, and Angela..are three of the sweetest people We have ever met in our travels,
It is worth staying just to meet them and for the chance of Gonzalo’s bbq’s! They helped us with whatever problems we had, no matter how small, any time day or night..You can not go wrong here..Take a chance, and you will be greatly rewarded..

Hugs from Brasil.
Luiza.
Hi,

I’ m planning to visit Buenos Aires with my girlfriend in August from the 9th to tha 12th.
I would like to know if it is posible to rent the loft only for three nights.
Thanks!
I’m very much looking forward to staying in “The Loft” for el Nuevo Ano. Buenos dias.
Well… certainly not nearly as much as we look forward to having you here. CanNOT wait! Besos…A&J
Gorgeous looking place. Just curious, do you have any availabilities in August of this year? If so, how can we get in touch for booking? Thanks!

Do any of your units have at least a queen size bed and are any available between Feb. 1 and March 31, 2012? Thanks Michelle
Hi Githa,
Actually the loft does not have 2 bedrooms, but the pad (our second apartment in the same building) does.
Cheers,
Angela
Luiza… yes, it’s a pity! But you’re going to love this building. We definitely do. And the other apartments I know of here that are listed as vacation rentals are really nice (not as nice as the loft ;-0 ) Do get in touch with us when you get here. Send us an email at santelmoloft@gmail.com. We’d love to meet you and maybe introduce you to whoever is staying in the loft. It’s always great to meet other travelers. Um beijo (that’s about all I know in Portuguese)… Angela
Ciao Carlo,
I’ve just sent you an email. Thanks so much for getting in touch with us and we’re thrilled to know the blog info is useful!
Mille grazie,
Angela
