Milion

Lavish and luxurious bar
Word to the wise: The popularity of this place means tables and seating areas are frequently reserved; while you’ll always find a perch, book ahead to guarantee a table.

Tipple of choice: Try the outstanding range of Malbecs or the Acorazado, a frozen fusion of cognac, Kahlua and whiskey.
Talk of the town: A friendly ghost is said to lurk about the old candlelit corridors.

Pass through the marble-lined entrance to find your way into this beautiful converted five storey Belle Époque mansion. While retaining all its old world charm, it has become a haven for Buenos Aires’ cool clientele. The ornate chandeliers, high ceilings and aristocratic furnishings become cutting-edge when paired with the remixed tango music, contemporary artwork and illuminated cocktail bar.

Enjoy a moment of romance on the secluded balconies or long lunches in the luscious gardens. The modern Argentinian fare served in the restaurant is only good, but it’s worth a visit for a taste of the high life.
