Hotels Montevideo

Area and staff was excellent

Gym is small and no weights over 25 lbs

Fantastic staff from the front desk and porters, to the restaurant staff and maids. Friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and great smiles everywhere. The location was also great with several of the best restaurants of Montevideo just behind the hotel.

The furniture in the room was so stylish that it was sometimes impracticable. The surfaces were matt, and thus showed every bump, scratch etc. so as to appear not very clean. The restaurant was perfectly shiny, though.

The check in was flawless and the room excellent. Nice bed, and almost no noise. Great value.

The first room had a strong tobacco stink. It was really bad, but as soon as we call reception, they gave apologies and immediately found another room for us.

The executive room was very suitable, breakfast was great and overall staff was very customer service oriented.

No complaints at all

Kayak offered a great rate at the Mercure. This hotel is on the waterfront, but you will have to pay up for a room with a beach view. The breakfast hours are ample and numerous. The rooms are small, but clean and efficient.

The public areas outside of the lobby have a motion sensor. So if you take more than 5 seconds trying to work a poor room card, you will find yourself in the dark taking twice the time to motion the light back on. The morning receptionist can be surly with a bit of Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde. A cab ride is required for top rated TripAdvisor restaurants, but a safe neighborhood often triumphs most things.
