Short ride in taxi to concert and central to any of the shopping malls. Easy walk to the port with good table service restaurants. It is an old established hotel that has been renovated and is kept clean and cared for by very attentive employees. Purpose of trip was concert and shopping mall tour. Taxis and Ubers know it.

I arrived one day late since my flight was cancelled. Arriving at midnight, I was put into the smallest room they had. It was half the size (10m2) as booked and payed for and as advertised by the hotel itself. Room was dirty, so is the hotel. If you get a room ending on 16 (516, 416, ...) ask for another one. It is simply a scam being put in such a room and the hotel told me, that this is a normal room (not true). I usually check rooms when the cleaning stuff let the door open while cleaning. All rooms were bigger (and as advertised). So I was just lied to. I had a discussion with the manager, which was good. His hands are bound too. But he knows about the state of this hotel. But owners obviously do not want to invest, so they press the lemon based on their 4star rating, which is clearly wrong. Owners of this hotel shoud not rin such a bad hotel. Others would do better. Hotel is, with both eyes closed, a middle range 3 star hotel, I would still rather describe it as hotel with youth hostel feelings. Breakfast: such a bad experience. Basicially no selection and nothing fresh. Scrambled eggs out of a bottle, just sweet bread or Industrialized bread, orange juice is Fanta with water. Ambiente is like a youth hostel. No selection Pool: would never swim in there Gym: of the size of my room, just filled with some broken machines. Nothing you really can use. It is such a shame such a hotel. If you like to overpay your stay with bad breakfast and youth hostel feeling-go ahead

Wonderful hotel and a great value. It has a storied history as Hotel Cervantes (famous writers like Borges and Cortazar stayed there), but it is newly renovated and very modern. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Easy walking distance to major sights and great restaurants. If I return to Montevideo, I will stay there again.

Pool was Very Warm. AND VERY SMALL. Not like pics. Good breakfast. Good location. A few ‘issues’ with room, heating and tv didn’t work first night (then fixed) no replacement of coffee. Kettle didn’t work…location made up for this. Quiet.

It was a great stay, walking distance from the city center
