Miravida has several reviews in the hotel review section. Also, you can ask Dr. Dawggy, a travel expert who has stayed there. | ||||||

Ooops! Didn't answer the most interesting thing... So far there is no information about if this hotel is licensed or not. It is not registered in the official BA website www.bue.gov.ar that lists all licensed hotels/B&B/hostels of Buenos Aires, nor is a member of the hotel association. Will look for this info and update it later..! | ||||||

Hi, I am the owner of Miravida Soho, and I can tell you that we are licensed, although we are still waiting for the final 'habilitacion' certificate. We have gone through the first inspection and the second will take place within 30 days (we are told). We have not joined the Hotel association yet. James | ||||||

All things considered (location, price-to-quality ratio, safety and so forth) the Miravida Soho is a great option. Many hoteliers and builders in the USA and Argentina adopt a "put the money where you can see it" approach, with lavish bathrooms and poor ventilation or minimal attention to important elements that lack the wow factor--such as the use of fire retardant materials in stairwells and other areas....The Miravida has attended to these important details and has incorporated a fair amount of Wow Factor elements as well.... here is my review of the hotel.... Hotel Miravida Soho. http://www.miravidasoho.com/ Why has this newly opened tiny six room boutique hotel in Palermo Soho skyrocketd from obscurity to number six on the top 10 ranked hotels in all of Buenos Aires in its first quarter of operation? I decided to see for myself. I spent the better part of two hours sampling the wine and enjoying a sandwich for lunch before talking a tour with owner James Kings, a recent immigrant from Canada. James has spent the past two years renovating this old family home in preparation for its debut as a boutique hotel. He has not skimped anywhere, from the details you can see (tile, hardwood, moldings) to the things you will not notice right away(stairwells that meet the highest standards of fire safety and “soundproofing” between rooms to the standards of Four Seasons and other top hotels). Each room is distinctive, and all are very nicely appointed with fine linens, walk in showers and numerous other amenities. The wine bar downstairs features a select group of offerings in various price ranges…many outstanding wines from Achavel Ferrer and others are available by the glass. Future plans include a wine tasting area in the wine cellar. No wonder notables from Wine Spectator and various wineries in Mendoza have stayed here. Rooms currently go for $95 to $180 per night, well below the price in the area for high quality boutique hotels. As one TA observer wryly observed, book quickly before this place is “discovered” and raises prices to the level of other first class boutique hotels in hip Palermo Soho. | ||||||

Thank you James for claryfing your license situation. Hopefully in a near future I will pay you a visit. | ||||||
