We absolutely loved our time at Livian. Each room of the converted house was so full of charm and style (especially The Kiss!), common areas were beautiful with many sweet touches (piano in lounge, soft classical music playing in the kitchen, etc.) breakfast simple but lovely. Staff always around and helpful. We will recommend Livian Guesthouse to anyone we know... More

Situated close to downtown Palermo AND to an metro (subte) station but still in a rather quiet area, the Livian Guesthouse presetns itself as an ideal starting point for a Buenos Aires discovery tour.

Old house in Palermo, great choice for those looking for a piece of antiquity in the trendy suburb of Palermo. All staff are very incredibly nice and helpful. The location is not the best in palermo, but Livian is definitely one of your best options in Buenos Aires

Thank you for taking the time to write about us! Livian Guest House offers the best of both things: nearness to the center of Palermo Soho to enjoy, buy, eat and discover Buenos Aires, but when you come back to the hotel you'll find the tranquility you need to rest, away from the crowd and the noise. Our house is... More

This is a townhouse in the suburb of Palermo, in a fairly quiet street. Inside it is like a family home (where the family had visited India extensively, from the artefacts displayed around the rooms). The rooms have names rather than numbers - we were in the Blue Room on the first floor. Along the corridor were doors to a... More

Lots of places claim to be a 'home from home', but Livian really delivers. From the first hello till we said goodbye, no effort was spared in looking after us and helping us enjoy Argentina. We stayed at Livian for about a week in total at the beginning and end of a month-long trip round Argentina. They helped us find... More

This boutique hotel is situated in a quiet neighbourhood, not far from bustling Palermo. It has moderate cozy rooms and a garden as a little oasis. The staff is very friendly and helpfull, and the old mansion has a good atmosphere. And you can play piano, if you want to!
