Great Montevideo Spot
We had a great experience. We needed to be near the ferry terminal and it was a nice walk in the morning with cafes on the way. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean!

Simply the best!
A few days before, we could upgrade our room for a corner loft, which was very spatious, top clean and very confortable!
Also, the restaurant in this hotel serves excellent meals and we ended up eating all our breakfasts and dinner at ‘Americano’ because prices were competitive and the food was excellent.
We also appreciate the location; very near ‘Plaza de Independencia’ and all the markets in the streets nearby when a cruise ship was in Montevideo.
Moreover, the staff was very profesionnal, courteous and very kind!
I highly recommand Smart hôtel!

Good option for city stay
Fairly modern city centre hotel. We opted for a superior room which was spacious with kitchenette and sitting area. Bathroom had walk in shower. Bed was comfy.
Breakfast buffet was decent but you have to book a time when they are busy as the dining area is small. Ate dinner there too but only average.
Staff for most part are young and helpful, although was irritated to find our room had not been cleaned when we returned after a busy day at 17.30. Someone was sent up pretty quickly but then we had to vacate our room for another 30 mins and there was no apology.
Was pleased to find a small but well equipped gym.
One thing to note is that the hotel is on a fairly busy road. We were allocated a room on the first floor and it was quite noisy so may be best to request a room on a high floor.

Nice hotel just off the main avenue, but in a bit of a off the beaten path. There are a few sketchy people around but it's very convenient to independence square, Palacio Salvo and old Montevideo. The restaurant recommendations made by the hotel were excellent. I've stayed here before and one thing worth mentioning is the wide swing in pricing, as cheap as $60 per night and sometimes over $100...

Views from the room were very nice, and the property had everything we needed. Powerful AC. The staff were very helpful and kind. We arrived early by Buquebus from Buenos Aires, and they stowed our luggage.
A day before we arrived we requested a slightly early check-in, but they were unable to accommodate us. It was the one thing they might have been able to do better.
