About This Guide
Palermo encompasses several sub-neighbourhoods — Palermo Soho, Palermo Hollywood, and the leafy streets near the Tres de Febrero Parks — each with its own personality. Soho is the boutique-hotel and design-restaurant heartland; Hollywood hosts the media industry and its associated dining scene; the park areas offer rowing lakes, rose gardens, and the city's best jogging paths. Together they form Buenos Aires' most complete neighbourhood experience.
