A little history
The Meliá Recoleta Plaza has the particularity of having been Eva Perón's place of residence when, with the achievement of her first radio roles, and after having stayed in cheap pensions, she was able to access a home of her own. In fact, she chose this place because just by crossing the street she found herself on “Radio Belgrano”, the station where she worked as a supporting actress.
The renovation of the building by the hotel owners took care of every detail to offer their guests this stretch of history in an emblematic building.
