About Palermo Hollywood
Where to stay in Palermo Hollywood
Not every neighbourhood fits every trip — here's what each one is good for.
Palermo Hollywood sits within the larger Palermo barrio, one of the parts of Buenos Aires travellers most often choose for an overnight stay. Lodging gathers densely across the low-rise streets. Its restaurants and late-opening streets pull visitors well past dinner, and the district keeps you close to the rest of Palermo while holding a quieter, lower-rise character than the busier blocks just across the tracks.
Stay here for the food and the nights, then walk into the wider barrio for its museums by day.
About Palermo Hollywood
What are the main landmarks in Palermo Hollywood?
The draw of Palermo Hollywood is the district itself. Its restaurants, bars and studio blocks are the attraction, more than any single monument set among them. For the barrio's grander sights you step outward, into the wider Palermo that surrounds this district and carries the museums, the parks and the older institutions of northern Buenos Aires.
The Basílica del Espíritu Santo gives the surrounding barrio a landmark of worship, one of the churches that mark the streets beyond Palermo Hollywood.
What is the history of Palermo Hollywood?
Palermo Hollywood took shape as one part of the older Palermo barrio in the north of Buenos Aires. Its name is newer than its streets. The blocks between the avenues drew film and television studios, and the informal label that followed stuck to the district and set it apart from the rest of Palermo without ever redrawing the barrio's own bounds.
The Río de la Plata lies not far to the north, the same water that shaped where Palermo and its districts grew within Argentina.
