This boutique hotel, built from the shell of a turn-of-the-20th century townhouse, is a showcase for voguish design. All of the 16 rooms have pleasing design touches like colourful Mapuche rugs draped across the king-size beds, pastel tones, fat pillows and wooden furnishings. Paseo Colón may not be anyone's idea of the Riviera, but Ribera's room rates trounce most others in this category.
