About

Casa Umare

Casa Umare is a 4-star aparthotel located in the City of Buenos Aires, just a 6-minute walk from the colorful streets of La Boca. Housed in a restored building, it pairs old-world architecture—high ceilings, parquet floors, and stained glass—with an owner-curated art collection that turns every corner into a gallery.

The property offers tour and ticket assistance to help you explore the city, while in-house comforts include a coffee shop, bar/lounge, sun terrace, solarium, and a cozy internal courtyard. Each apartment is equipped with a kitchenette (electric kettle, cookware, dining table), air conditioning, and heating—designed for longer stays as much as short visits.
