The Loft

San Telmo Loft, your home in Buenos Aires

In the heart of San Telmo, the most captivating barrio of Buenos Aires, this warm and inviting loft offers a perfect refuge after a long day of discovering the mysteries of Buenos Aires. San Telmo Loft is more than a furnished apartment; it’s a home. Because we’ve stayed in too many of those vacation rentals that look like they were furnished with the leftovers found in attics and garages, unwanted furniture stuck randomly in an apartment with zero consideration for space, we’ve paid attention to the details and created a home we’d love to live in. It’s romantic and quiet and comfortable.

Living Room

The Sofa Inspired the Design

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—San Telmo, the most traditional, and Puerto Madero, the most modern. Consistent with the turn-of-the-century architecture of the building itself, the interior design combines sensual and dynamic colors giving it the feel of a Toulouse-Lautrec painting. San Telmo is the most bohemian barrio (neighborhood) in Buenos Aires and the Loft celebrates the hip vibe of its surroundings without going overboard.

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 by the interior designer which gives it an intimate and personal touch.

From the Kitchen Kitchen

A spiral staircase leads to the bedroom and master bathroom. 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.

Bedroom

You’ll want to explolre 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.

Does the loft have 2 bedrooms???

santelmoloft February 6, 2009 at 10:41 pm

Hi Githa,

Actually the loft does not have 2 bedrooms, but the pad (our second apartment in the same building) does.

Cheers,
Angela

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..

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

Luiza June 8, 2009 at 5:16 pm

Oh! I just rented a loft in the same building with another agency, what a pity…
Hope to get to meet you guys at some point. I’m coming in July 3th an leaving in July 15th. Great blog by the way.
Hugs from Brasil.
Luiza.
