1555 Malabia House

1555 Malabia House review

1555 is a pioneer among designer guesthouses in Palermo Viejo; it has been imitated, but hardly bettered. The interior design savvy of owner María is apparent throughout this converted convent, formerly the home of the San Vicente Ferrer ladies. The use of simple colours, natural light and three mini gardens come together to create a relaxed oasis. The warmth of the welcome is unsurpassed, and invites you to spend your days lounging on comfy living room sofas. All the rooms have queen-size beds. At the end of 2008 the team will open another 'house' in the barrio of Colegiales called 650 Freyre House (www.650freyrehouse.com.ar).
