Hostels in Colonia Department, Uruguay

A charming pension with an attractive courtyard and roof terrace. Very good value for money. Best of all was the service. My stay was brief and forced (by virtue of a ferry cancellation due to fog) so I had to leave very early but was provided with a generous and thoughtful packed breakfast to takeaway.

Hotel is located by the river so you get lovely views at breakfast or from your room depending on your room. It is a short walk from the main square and sights. We had one of the larger rooms with an outdoor balcony but it was too cold to use it. Rooms are tastefully appointed and decorated but we were disappointed with the rickety cupboard which was filled with the cushions for the outdoor balcony chairs and the complete lack of drawers in the room for clothes. Given the price point of this hotel I would have expected them to have an outdoor sealed storage area on the balcony for the outdoor cushions vs using the little space we had. Also housekeeping would add more toiletries every day even if you had unused bottles and soap which was a bit wasteful but at least there was no issue with them not replacing used items. Rooms are very clean. We had a very comfortable sleep. Good shower which you need to let run for 5 mins before you get hot water as it is all heated by electricity but there was ample hot water for two showers. Lack of charging points in our room but we did have one that we could easily access. Staff very friendly. Breakfast is a small a la carte selection but ample as you can have everything on it ie they do not limit you to one item. There is croissants, eggs, cheese and cold meats, yoghurt and granola, breads etc. Plus they serve a range of coffee barista style so it makes for a nice start to your day. We did not eat in the restaurant but did have some cocktails. You get a 10% discount as a hotel guest. We found them well priced relative to the rest of the town and their quality is definitely better. We had a nice stay. Would suggest that two nights in Colonia is ample time without being at all rushed as it is quite small. Also an easy day trip from Buenos Aires.

We loved our stay here. Comfortable room in a beautiful historic building. The staff, especially Werner, went out of their way to give us information on the town and any assistance we needed. Breakfast was served in a nice upstairs room with good bird-watching out the window. We would have liked some eggs or other protein with the breakfast, but it was a typical spread and of good quality. Definitely recommend this place!
