Great location and quiet
This is a beautiful hotel in a great location in the old part of the city. It is very safe and nice and quiet (except one night a very loud service truck was making lots of noise at 4 am).

Great Hotel in OldTown Montevideo
Mixup with room details, but the Hotel Manager was able to come up with a fair solution. Marcelo is Awesome. We have stayed here before and plan on coming back in November.

Nice budget hotel in the old city
There was some confusion about our room - our paperwork from hotels.com said we were getting a king bed, but upon arrival we were shown to a superior room with a double. We talked to the desk staff about this and were upgraded to a small king (no other way to describe it). But this room was on only one floor, and as 60-something yr olds, we preferred that to the other room which had a loft bedroom and narrow stairs.

Not for sleepwalkers
This is an old hotel, but it has charm. The lift is quaint and well-maintained. The most unusual feature of our room (all rooms?) is that the sleeping quarters and bathroom are one storey above the lounge area, up a flight of steep stairs. Not a comforting thought if you are inclined to sleep walk ... and a bit challenging if you have rickety knees! Good location for Marcado del Puerto (about a 10 minute walk) and the old city, with all the street vendor stalls en route. It is extremely well located for Teatro Solis and downtown shopping as well.

Good but old
The hotel was good and well situated in the old town. Stayed in a 2 floor loft suite which had a cool layout. Might not be for everyone because the stairs are narrow. The bathroom is upstairs along with the bed. The room and the hotel are dated and I expected them to be newer from the photos. Breakfast was okay with some fruit, bread, ham, cheese, and eggs. Juice, coffee, and tea was available as well.

Loved it.
I spent 2 nights at this hotel, and loved it. Diego at the front desk spoke English and was fantastic in offering ideas on things to do and see in MVD. He told me about Greeting Man .... many locals don't even know about this sculpture! The hotel even loaned me an adapter for my e-reader, no questions asked. The room was an unusual loft layout, but efficient. Plenty of heat too on those cold nights. The location of the hotel is in the Old City- within walking distance of everything. And many of the bus routes end at the Plaza nearby, so it's easy to get home. Breakfast was delicious (Illy coffee!) and robust. I give this place five out of 5, except for the night staff who didn't seem to care much about guests.

Very good architecture and location, recomended
Close to most places, good bars pubs and restaurants. the view to the old city Gate is great. The old lifter from 1913 is a charm on the stay, good service and Very clean. Highly recomended. Some noise From the bars is consequence but at same time brings a security character. For me it was Ok.

Good place to stay in Montevideo
This is a well located hotel, with great breakfasts and absolutely fantastic staff. We were not disturbed by the restaurants down the street but this may depend on your room. The rooms are definitely due for some maintenance our airconditioner had a flooding problem, but are still comfortable and spacious.. As for value for money it would depend on what rate you were able to get, the rack rate is definitely not value for money, but the internet 3 day rate was excellent value. If you have problems with stairs this would not be a good place to stay as the beds are on a mezzanine floor and breakfast is up a flight of stairs,.

cool spot in a desolate neighborhood
The one way street to this hotel is under construction, forcing you to either drive through the pedestrian avenues or reverse for a city block to get there. If you are traveling via cab you can haul your bags for a block. Once there things get better. The staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms are spacious and modern. And the elevator is really cool. There is no restaurant, but you can walk across the street to Don's. The hotel is located south of Centro in the Old Town area, which is cool to walk around for a day at the most. The bars around the hotel are fun but would probably deter families and business folks from staying here. Overall, this is a great hotel to see the old part of the city before heading to greener pastures along the coast.
