Win a Night at the Home Hotel!

BAIN is excited to announce that there is yet another raffle prize up for grabs at our End of the Year Party this Wednesday, November 14 at Pur Sang in Recoleta.  For those that attend the event, you can now win a one night stay at the Home Hotel in Palermo Hollywood complete with a welcome cocktail of your choice!

The Home Hotel opened in December 2005 and is the product of the union of an Argentine woman and her British husband.  They designed and created a comfortable, fashionable space in Palermo that offers a luxury experience to all of its guests.  The 20-bedroom hotel focuses on natural light, spacious rooms and adds the funk of colorful French vintage wallpaper.  Their patio is a beautiful open space with a lovely pool and comfortable sitting area for those who want to enjoy a glass of wine in the open air.

Home may be intimate but it offers some big time treats such as a Spa offering ayurvedic treatments with organic products, a Resto-Bar offering breakfast, lunch and evening tapas with a carefully chosen wine list, signature cocktails, and a large range of frozen vodkas.  The bar overlooks the 300 square-meter garden with a heated pool and deck area for sunbathing.  Home is a hotel where you can escape from the city without ever having to leave it.

Contact bain.downtown@gmail.com to get your tickets to the End of Year Party today!  Each ticket allows you to enter the drawing for this and many other great prizes!
