It seems that nearly every day I come across a new article raving about all the magnificent sights of Argentina, or a funky little boutique hotel in Buenos Aires.  All the accolades are convincing me to plan a trip there ASAP (hmmm maybe in the autumn?) Whether you are heading to Argentina in the next few weeks or next year, consider this new hotel. The Vain Boutique Hotel takes it décor inspiration from the early 20^th century, although it has kept the bones of its original building intact. Every room is decorated differently, but the overall look is modern and streamlined.  The hotel also has an in-house wine bar and best of all, rates start at a cool $120 USD.  Vain Boutique, Thames 22268, Palermo Buenos Aires, Argentina.
