Sheraton Libertador Hotel, Hotel in San Nicolás, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The Libertador Hotel occupies the southeast corner of Maipú and Avenida Córdoba in San Nicolás, Buenos Aires. Designed by SEPRA and built by UR-CON between 1975 and 1977, it has three basements, a ground floor and twenty upper floors, with 212 rooms and a convention hall for 800 people. The lower levels house the function and convention rooms, ending in a restaurant with an outdoor terrace; the pool, solarium and spa are on the 22nd floor.
Designed in 1975 by SEPRA (Santiago Sánchez Elía, Federico Peralta Ramos, Alfredo Agostini) and built by UR-CON between 1975 and 1977, the hotel was part of Hoteles Argentinos S.A.'s plan to create a national hotel chain, intended for visitors to the 1978 FIFA World Cup under law 17.752. In 1987 the Fiduc group acquired it and placed it under Kempinski as Hotel Libertador-Kempinski. IRSA bought HASA in 1998, sold 20% to Starwood in 1999, and the hotel became Sheraton Libertador Buenos Aires until IRSA repurchased that stake in February 2019.
The hotel's name recalls the Libertador building's origin as the first hotel of the Hoteles Argentinos S.A. chain, planned in 1975 to lodge visitors for the 1978 FIFA World Cup. Its base holds the convention hall for 800 people, and a restaurant with an outdoor terrace closes the podium.
The hotel sits near major transportation hubs, making it easy to reach Teatro Colon, Casa Rosada, and commercial areas. Its central position helps visitors get around the city without difficulty.
