Hotel Emperador Buenos Aires

What Hotel Emperador Buenos Aires does

Hotel Emperador Buenos Aires is a privately-held luxury hotel operating a single 265-room asset at 420 Avenida del Libertador in the Recoleta neighborhood of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The property is staffed by approximately 145 employees and offers nine accommodation categories ranging from Deluxe rooms (from USD 158/night) to two presidential suites including the 186 m² Suite Emperador (from USD 338/night) and the 150 m² Suite Emperatriz (from USD 450/night). The hotel runs four distinct F&B outlets — Maximus Restaurant, Oliver's Bar, Terrazas Del Museo (a garden terrace with waterfall), and an exclusive Tea Time service — plus a Nikkei-chef-prepared Japanese breakfast that is positioned as the only such offering in Buenos Aires.

The business operates with a unit-pricing revenue model: room revenue at per-night published rates in USD (including tax), supplemented by packaged offerings for weddings, romantic getaways, families, and short-stay city retreats. A 13-room meetings-and-events division provides over 1,400 m² of event space (largest venue Del Prado at 451 m² accommodating up to 400 in reception) with full catering tiers, accessed via a formal RFP inquiry process. Ancillary revenue is generated by an indoor pool, spa, sauna, fitness center, and 21st-floor solarium.

Distribution combines direct booking through a TravelClick-powered reservation engine on the hotel's own website, TravelClick OTA inventory for global reach, WhatsApp for high-touch wedding/event inquiries, and segmented email channels for reservations, events, celebrations, and front-desk operations. Customer segments span business travelers (primary), leisure travelers, corporate event planners, social/celebration guests, and families. No ownership, parent company, financial performance, or chain affiliation is disclosed in the available source material.
