Montevideo hotellit Centro, Cordón

Plussat: The staff is very friendly and the place is clean and stylish

Miinukset: Some rooms had no windows which wasn't clear to me at the time of booking

Plussat: Good people, very cozy, clean... very good location, good brekfast

Plussat: Hotel owner was an amazing guy.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The accommodation is pretty and lovely, with Mario and Solange being such friendly host.

Miinukset: The hotel is close by a busy street, so get ready for a noisy night full of buses and music out loud. There are mosquitoes biting your skin during the night (I got 3 bites in 1 night). Also, there’s a huge glass window at the top of each door room that allows SO MUCH light into the room (no curtains available). Last but not least, the pillows are terribly uncomfortable (I used it to block the light into my eyes).

Plussat: Mario was the highlight of my trip to Montevideo. A self-described film fanatic, we had great conversations about films from the classics to modern day. A very cultured and hospitable man and great company for me during my stay :-)

Plussat: Mario and Solange are so kind, which was so nice :) The rooms look amazing, the roof top is great and breakfast really tasty. We definitely recommend this place!

Plussat: Location, room, whole house and Mario...amazing for 81.

Miinukset: Absolutely nothing it was amazing!!

Plussat: Loved the centuries old house but what really made our stay extraordinary was the genuine warmth and love for people displayed by Mario, Solange and Julien.

Plussat: Everything! Julien, Solange and her father Mario made me feel like at home, they were very helpful and they even prepared me a Mate! The place is very well located, you can take buses for any destination or walk (30 minutes to Plaza Indipendencia, 40 to the Rambla). There’s a supermarket nearby. The facility counts with 5 rooms, mine was nice with all the essentials, the bed was very comfortable. There are two shared bathrooms, which is definitely enough. Breakfast is very good.

Plussat: Good location and excellent customer service. We had the best healthy breakfast in the whole four weeks trip in South America. What a great place to stay!

Miinukset: None

Plussat: excellent breakfast and good location. the staff was helpful and the coffee machine in the room was supplied daily with good coffee

Plussat: The shower was great The room had a musty smell The kettle took to long to heat

Plussat: The rooms were very comfortable and clean and the location was great. The breakfast was good (although there could be more items variety due to the high cost).

Miinukset: The hotel has central heating, so in our opinion, the temperature was set very high and it was extremely hot inside the room. This was a very negative point, because it was very uncomfortable to stay inside the rooms and mainly to sleep. The value of the garage space and the breakfast were not included in the daily price, so at the end, for a big family like ours, the total cost was very high. Although this was specified in the reservation, it is confusing because it seems that the value is low, but in general, it is not.

Plussat: Everything was outstanding! Fenomenal! Personal so,so kind in every way...especially mis/mrs Jasmin...amazing lady,always with smile and hospitality like in Hilton hotels even better! Thank you so much! Breakfast delicius,varius,hot and cold as you like it ...indoor swimming pool water around 24c...so nice!

Plussat: La atenvion del personal

Miinukset: Me gustaria que se incluya el desayuno en la oferta

Plussat: Friendly staff. Nice location.

Miinukset: Old building. Tonnes of noises at floor 9th.

Plussat: Great staff, the front desk attendants are awesome, five star to Mr.Willian and Mrs.Jasmin, they gave their best to make our stay as pleasant as possible.

Plussat: I liked the staf. It's allways very kind

Miinukset: Indidn't like the wi fi sistem. It eas very weake. I missed the signal every time

Plussat: Everything

Plussat: The location and facilities were very satifying ones. It values more than what I paid.Highly recommended.

Miinukset: I am satisfied with every aspects of the hotel.

Plussat: Good Hotel, good breakfast in a nice location

Miinukset: Sofar nothing

Plussat: Very helpful and friendly staff, immediate attention to all my needs...excellent

Plussat: The location

Miinukset: It’s not very clean

Plussat: Excellent location and great hotel. Great free breakfast, but not the best coffee (a sad reality in all Uruguay). Great bed, small but super comfortable room.

Miinukset: Old facilities which means a small and slow elavator and an old bathroom, very low water pressure.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Room could have been cleaner

Plussat: Really good breakfast and a good location.

Miinukset: Upon arrival, they gave me by mistake the key of another room already occupied. The elevator doesn't work well. The hotel is not very pretty. The shower doesn't have hot water, it is warm water and doesn't arrive with enough power.

Plussat: Location wise it is fantastic if you prefer to stay in an area that has some night activity. Montevideo's old town is pretty run-down so something in a more urban area feels safer. Breakfast is a good continental.

Miinukset: The LOUDEST elevator’s noise! Not just the elevator's engine, but also the lack of a sprint to prevent the sound of a blasting door. If you are a misophobic, do stay away. If you are staying from the 5th floor up (out of 6 floors) you will not find rest. Even if my room was 10 mts away from the elevator door I could not rest without earplugs and a noise cancelling headset. If you are obsessive with cleaning, stay away. Finding long hair from previous guests in the bedroom/bathroom is common, but bits of shaving in the soap shelve in the bathroom... the good part is that the cleaning staff is very sweet and funny. The quilt between linen and the coverlet was very stained - not those fat stains that stick forever, but something that would go away with a wash. I don’t understand how this hotel manage to keep its three start rank.

Plussat: The room was cheap for staying in the center of Montevideo.

Miinukset: Room was basic, athmosphere wasn't great. Windows were not well isolated so the room was quite cold. Staff did not speak english.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: There was only one very little window, which had a view of some inside (not so nice) yard. However this was compensated by white LED lights.

Plussat: Very comfy bed. Breakfast was amazing, great variety of choice. Good value for money. Located right near the main street so easy access to plenty of shops and restaurants. Mini bar in room was a nice extra as well.

Miinukset: There was a drain in the bathroom that caused the bathroom to smell bad constantly. Wifi was poor.

Plussat: Friendly & convenient

Miinukset: Slow wifi and drop outs

Plussat: Incredible value, great manager who was very helpful, and rooms were good just a bit tired.

Plussat: Great location

Miinukset: The hot water takes forever to warm in the shower

Plussat: Spotlessly clean. Quiet. Large rooms.

Miinukset: Great staff. No English either. Worlds smallest lobby.

Plussat: Very nice staff at reception, easy check in and payment by card with no extra charges. Location of the hotel is good, with just 8 minutes walk to plaza Independencia and shops, few restaurants and money exchange within short walking distance too. Wi-fi is of good quality and speed. There is soap in the bathroom, which is not always the case in South America. Bed is comfortable and bathroom pretty modern. Also, overall the hotel is kept pretty clean.

Miinukset: We had a double room for just for one night. It was very small, so that the bed was almost in the way of getting inside the room (one person had to get in, close the door a little and walk through, for the other to come in. The sheets and towels were not completely clean (you could see they've been washed, but had small, embedded old stains). Bathroom had the shower area behind a curtain, but toilet and bidet were also within that same area (a bit weired and not the most comfortable).

Plussat: The location was close to old town, within 5 blocks walking distance. There is a grocery store nearby. Wifi was great and the maid service was excellent. The shower was nice and hot. Also we were provided lots of blankets and a quite heater for the room for the cold winter nights was a big plus. Check in was quick and easy and they take visa!

Miinukset: There is no parking available for the hotel, and yes, it was stated in the booking. The parking was 2 blocks down the street and was charged $8/day, so it is good to factor in the cost of parking when you rent the hotel room. If you're a light sleeper, you might not like the traffic that goes through, a lot of buses come through this street.

Plussat: We had very a nice, spacious and clean room with nice bathroom - one of the best rooms we have had across South America at this price. We got toiletries towels as well as AC and TV. There isn't a Lobby, a communal area or a kitchen, but you will probably not mind spending time in your room anyway! Location is great just off the main street and near the centre. Note that it is a 45 minute walk from the bus terminal (which itself is far from the historic centre).

Miinukset: See above.

Plussat: The hotel was very well located, in ciudad vieja, near to bus stops and 18 julio avenue. The room was big and had a mini fridge.

Miinukset: The staff was a little tough to deal, but it was not anything that we couldn’t have dealt.

Plussat: The building, the beds so comfortable, staff very good and the location was perfect for me.

Plussat: Size of the rooms and facilities - TV, table...

Plussat: Staffs very friendly, happy and respectful. The room was comfortable and what I was expecting.

Plussat: friendliest staff ever! the room is clean and nice! the lobby is very friendly!

Miinukset: the breakfast was a real disappointment. Do you know these breakfast where from far you think: Oh my god the whole buffet is full of lovely stuff and then you come closer and notice there is NOTHING nice there except maybe some watermelon (that was gone within 5 minutes)? There is way too much sweet and artificial stuff like sweet pastries and the like, but the is only one bread: plain white bread that doesnt seem to be the freshest. The fruit juices have probably never seen real fruits in their life. We stayed at a hostel in Montevideo the day before and the breakfast was double as nice as in hotel Europa.

Plussat: WiFi works great in the room and the room is spacious. It is comfy but everything is a bit old in the room and bathroom.

Miinukset: Little expansive for what you get.

Miinukset: The rooms aren't very clean, particularly the floors, and the rooms at the front of the hotel are extremely noisy. The blankets are thin and had stains on them. Upon check-out my colleague paid by an international card, which resulted in a tax waiver. The lady at the reception was obviously annoyed at not being able to use the card machine properly in the first place and once she realised the bill was 3 US$ less than it should be because of this tax waiver she began to aggressively shout at my colleague insisting she pay these extra 3 US$. This is not what you want or expect, particularly first thing in the morning, when you are about to head to the airport to begin an extremely long journey home. It is highly unprofessional to treat guests in such a way, especially as this was not our fault and we are not liable for the cost difference due to this tax waiver. We were also made to feel like criminals as they went to check the room before allowing us to leave the building. I understand this is to stop people not paying for room service products etc. but feel a friendlier approach to making people wait would be better. Overall a very disappointing stay and an extremely poor and necessary end to our time there. Would definitely not choose to stay here again.

Plussat: The location was ideal very central to everything & getting a cab was not hard plus the hotel had a lift ! The staff were helpful & the breakfast was plentiful (all you can eat)

Miinukset: Their check in times were not flexible & the room was facing a wall plus the mattress was saggy / springs broken ...hence you don’t really get a good sleep (there was two of us sharing the double bed) ! The shower was very very small but decent water pressure ! The worst part was the wifi internet ... you get no reception up on the 5th floor room 509.. unless you sit in the bathroom to send a message

Plussat: Rated as a three star hotel. I would rather give it two. It’s unpretentious, if you don’t expect too much it’s ok. Probably cannot ask for more for 34 dollars including breakfast.

Miinukset: Ok.

Plussat: The staff is nice

Plussat: Hotel is situated in the best location in Montevideo with walk in distance from all mayor attractions..

Miinukset: There where no kettles to boil your own hot water and coffee mugs in the rooms. It was cold during the night and we would have loved to be able to boil our own hot water to make coffee..
