We had such a lovely 4 night stay at the beginning of our Uruguay trip that we returned for our last night in Montevideo, same room with rooftop terrace. Didn’t try the hot tub. Breakfast is fantastic and all served in various antique china plates & cups in a beautiful breakfast room. We had tea & coffee served in the 1st floor library room filled with books ( some in English) and games. Staff very friendly, helpful and fluent in English. Do visit the museum across the street ( free admission/but donations appreciated) easy walk to restaurants, cafes & Mercado Puerto

Amazing value
A unique property that has history and aristocratic elegance that will really enhance your visit to Uruguay and expand your understanding of the country. It even has a library for lingering and browsing! One of the very best and most memorable stays in our 30-year travel history to 40+ countries.

What a gem!
What a wonderful gem! The hotel is beautifully restored historic building with many original features preserved together with addition stunning additions in furnishings & lighting & plants. Each room is named for an important historical person, we stayed on top floor 5th with a terrace overlooking the street & diagonally the park in one direction & waterfront in the other. Each & every staff member attentive, helpful & friendly. Beds comfy everything neat & clean. There’s even a library room on 1st floor we had tea brought to us there & read some of the books there as well. Breakfast was included and a real treat! All served in lovely original china plates, bowls and small cups but plenty of refills. We are coming back!

Beautiful boutique hotel in the historic centre of Montevideo.
The only slight problem is that this area is short of good restaurants at night

This hotel is a surprise. It has the feel of Old Uruguay. The building has been nicely renovated. Each room has a theme and is well appointed. Everything was clean and well maintained. Beautiful library for relaxing and dining room for breakfast. The included breakfast was great and very ample. Close walking to major sites in historic center and close the port for ferry and restaurant options. Would stay here again.
