Be forewarned if you cancel your booking. We had to cancel ours last October due to Superstorm Sandy when all flights were cancelled. Even though we were within their policy for refund, and have made multiple requests for same, we have not received reimbursement.

Perfect little place on the town square. Calm and quiet and a little magical once the day tourists leave and you're alone in the evening. Check out time is 11:00 a.m. but they know you're probably going to be taking a later bus or ferry out of town, so they allow you to leave your luggage in the lobby and... More

Colonia del Sacramento is an enchanting place and an oasis of serenity, especially when coming over from hectic Buenos Aires. Although small, it deserves more than the common day-trip rush, so staying a night is highly recommended. And if you do so, you would be silly to stay anywhere else than Posada Plaza Mayor! Right at the corner of Plaza... More

This is a delightful old posada in the heart of beautiful old town. It was our last stop on a three-week trip through Chile, Argentina and Uruguay and we were getting a bit road weary as our taxi carried us through the cobblestone streets of the historic district and deposited us in front of the iron gates of the Hotel...

Excellent location in the old town. As can be seen from the other reviews this is a unique building in the old city, with a fountain in the courtyard and beautiful flowers. We stayed in room 17, one of the rooms with the old Portuguese doors. Not great for accessibility, but a unique experience, and great on a vacation. The... More

Just lovely with a beautiful courtyard . We had room off courtyard which was archetype of the 18th century building. Rooms 1 2 3and 4 probably the best with one in the garden? Best if you avoid weekends as a lot of BA people come over .

The garden in the back yard has chairs and a river view. we had room 17 with the small door ( designed to keep out the horses in the original building), very quiet and facing back... More

This posada is in a great location,the staff is friendly,the exterior is interesting but the room although very clean are quite basic. We had a room back from the street which was very quiet. The breakfast was good.

Excellent location in old Colonia, which is now a World Heritage Site. Look through the main door to the courtyard within and you know you are in for a treat. It was very hot when we arrived and walking though into the shade of this beautiful little garden with the gentle sound of water from the fountain we were refreshed... More

It's not a hotel itself, it's more like a "posada" as they say, but it's truly amazing, it got me hard. First it was like a shock to enter those iron gates between those amazing stone walls and find such a peaceful place with a small fountain, flowers, birds and so. Rooms are very much cozy and I really felt... More
