“Overall good experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

The hotel room was spacious, modern, and clean. The location in Pocitos is good; however not as close to some of the better restaurants such as Perdiz and Francis, but still walkable distance. The breakfast was average to good - nothing extraordinary. It had a variety of choices - good coffee, eggs, bacon, fresh fruit yogurt and some pastries.

The main detractor was the service from the staff. As one of the best ranked hotels, my expectation was high that they would be advocates for us while we were in Uruguay like many of the other well ranked Tripadvisor hotels and B&Bs that we have stayed at. But they was often short in conversations and not very helpful with little things like power converters or finding transportation to airport (I recommend the intermediate taxi services - there vans which take multiple passengers or dedicated airport taxis that are cheaper then the standard cabs.). I felt like when speaking to them, we were keeping them from something more important than my inquiry and were often left waiting in the middle of a conversation. They advertise their happy hour/free wine tasting which we did try. The wine was good, but there was no chance to mingle with other guests since it was more about selling the product then the experience of enjoying vino and meeting fellow travelers.

Overall a good value for the money for the room and location.

“Hiddem gem in Montevideo”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012

This is the place to stayed in Montevideo. First of all, it is located in leafy street of Pocitos, which gives you a complete experience in uruguayan capital: 3 blocks away from the beach, 10 min drive from historic centre and mercado del Puerto, very close to a number of good restaurants and cafes. The hotel itself is excellent: it is brand new (opened in mid 2011), huge rooms with kitchen facilities, silent AC, flat TV with cable, soundproof window (altough the street is pretty quiet) and eletronic blackout curtains. We slept perfectly. Apart from the continental breakfast, there is other treat: a free wine degustation, a good opportunity to know the (good) uruguayan production. If cost/benefit remains good, we will definitely return soon.

“Clean, cool little hotel in a quiet locale”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 January 2012

Better than the 4 star rating. Our room was large and clean. Comfortable bed and with modern, funky furnishings and parquetry floors. The view was not much but all in all, I would highly recommend it for the price. The staff were helpful and friendly.

“MODERN ROOMS WITH KITCHEN FACILITIES”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

You don't get a suite but the large modern room had both kitchen and lounge space and was bright and contemporary. The staff were helpful and the small cafe or restaurant served splendid food and the waitress deserved special praise. Just a one nighter on our return journey but would suite longer stays, a nice enough area near the river front , beach and a medium bus journey from the city centre. We had a wine tasting evening thrown in with our meal for free.

Room Tip: we never found the pool, it didn't appear in the hotel facilities but is meant to be listed unde...
