ARTICLE ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED IN FAENA JOURNAL ISSUE #54 • WINTER 2023
Every year, Condé Nast Traveler magazine polls more than 500,000 of its readers on their favorite places for the prestigious Readers’ Choice Awards. Travelers from around the world voted Faena Buenos Aires as the best hotel in all South America, and Faena Miami Beach the number one hotel in Miami. With an unparalleled legacy in the travel industry, the Readers’ Choice Awards stands as one of the longest-running and most esteemed accolades, serving as the ultimate symbol of acknowledgment for excellence within the travel sector.
Since its opening in 2004, Faena Hotel Buenos Aires has redefined the experience of travel and inspired living by merging the elements of art, culture, and entertainment. Repurposing an enormous silo that fed post-war Europe, Faena Buenos Aires brought about a cultural renaissance and artistic rejuvenation in the previously tumbledown neighborhood of Puerto Madero. In Miami Beach, founder and visionary Alan Faena brought his creative tour de force across the Americas to create a vibrant tropical oasis with art and culture at its core.
“It’s an honor to be recognized by our guests who continue to inspire us with their passion for immutable beauty, quality service, and the talented multidisciplinary artists with whom we collaborate,” said Faena.
