Quaint little hotel at river front close to the harbour. The breakfast and coffee was really excellent.

Very nice and friendly staff. Great roof terras. Close to everything you need. Nice and cosy accommodation. Very complete breakfast!

It is near the harbour (Colonia Express) and the old town. Very nice staff. Quiet.

The location es really good. It’s just three blocks from the historical neighborhood. The staff was great, very nice reception. The breaks fast was sooooo good and fully!! The roof has a great view and the sunset is really nice to watch from there.

Very good location, great staff. Would certainly recommend.

fantastic personnel very clean room and bathroom super close to historical part of the city (max 5-7 mins walking from the Gate) yummy breakfast with fresh coffee, fruits and desserts

Friendky, helpfull staf. Clean rooms, good beds Delicious breakfast, nice music

The location was brilliant. Within easy walking distance of the bus terminal and the sea ferries.Right across the road from the River Plata and in the other direction was the town centre. The staff are very friendly and helpful and we had no problem with communication as English could be spoken or at least understood.The room was very clean, the breakfast worth getting up for and we would recommend the B&B to anyone wanting to visit Colonia.

The bedrooms were very clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Close to old part of town and the property is only a 5 minute walk from the ferry terminus.

We had an amazing stay. The rooms were clean and comfortable. And the staff helpful and friendly.
