Administração deficiente
Pros:

Funcionários atenciosos, localização

Cons:

Limpesa, corredores sujos. Café da manhã poderia ser melhor. Cobram a parte por alguns itens de café da manhã que para um hotel 5 estrelas e básico. Jogo americano bem cansado. Vimos que havia uma cafeteira francesa em uma mesa. Solicitamos uma também, o funcionário disse que só existia uma no hotel.
A manutenção geral é bem deficiente. Fala móveis no quarto, janela quebrada.
Falta gerência.

Such a nice stay !
Pros:

Very nice hotel, room was super spacious and circular. The location of the hotel is perfect with a nice street with restaurants, crêpas and shops at the back and the sea front for running. Perfect hotel for a stay in Carrasco ! Never disappointed by Sofitel, the French touch with a great service ! And the bed and pillows, always amazing at Sofitel.

This hotel is in urgent need of a renovation.
Pros:

This hotel could be much better if it was renovated. We had a room on the top floor with a terrace and sea view. Unfortunately, the windows and the terrace door are not very well insulated and you could hear the noise from the 6 lane highway in front of the hotel. The bathroom was a nightmare: only one person can enter, it's very small and the shower has no curtain or glass wall. The result: you cannot place anything anywhere that cannot become wet, the wooden wall covering is completely destroyed due to the excess of wate everywhere in the bathroom, and when you open the bathroom door, your partner will fall into the sink. Which sick architect is designing such bathrooms? On the positive side, the SPA is very nice and the relaxing gardens are beautiful. We had an unfriendly welcome (late on a Friday night), but the reception staff the next day was very helpful and kind. The restaurant is not the best choice in Montevideo, but the concierge helped us to find a good place nearby. After a solid renovation of the rooms, this hotel can become once again a good address. For the time being, I would rather go to the new "Hotel Montevideo" in the town centre. Better rooms, better service, much more charming.

Excellent experience
Pros:

It was a wonderful experience. Everyone there treated us with care and tried to be as helpful as possible. Especially helpful was Juan, the head of operations there.
We suggest staying there and get the royal treatment.
Warm regards,

Please don't miss the hotel carrasco if you are in the area
Pros:

I can't say enough good things about this beautiful hotel and its amazing staff.
We arrived late one evening after a very long day of traveling and a bad experience at a different hotel - at the time my card was not working and I could not reach the bank. Mauro was lovely with us, helped us find a solution and got us a beautiful room. Joaquin was also incredibly kind.
The dining staff is wonderful - they always had my tea with lemon slices ready as soon as I came to breakfast. They are lovely, listened to my attempts at Spanish and helped both of us to get what we needed.

The housekeeping staff is the best. Daniella took beautiful care of our room and always left us chocolates :)

Facilities: gorgeous. The spa is amazing, pool is relaxing and they offer a full range of services we did not have time to access.
The architecture is elegant and beautiful with amazing additions such as life sized horse statues with lamps on their heads. Rooms are luxurious with comfortable beds, beautiful showers and every window offers a view of beautiful Montevideo.

Location: steps from the beach and within walking distance of wonderful shops and restaurants. We came here to visit sites associated with flight 571 and were able to walk to many of them. The neighborhood is full of beautiful historic homes and parks. We were thrilled to see wild parakeets, something we just don't have at home.

Food: out of this world. The breakfast is included, with a range of food from fresh fruit to bacon, pastries, cereal, yogurt, greens and olives. A la carte is available for a very small extra fee. Lunch and dinner were fantastic.

There is probably more I'm forgetting but I can only say, if you have an opportunity to stay at this historic hotel, please do so. You won't regret it.

Não parece ter 5 estrelas
Pros:

O prédio é bem bonito e tem um cassino dentro. É um ponto turístico de Montevideo. Os funcionários são gentis. A área do spa é bem legal.

Cons:

O quarto é pouco funcional. O chuveiro não é dos melhores e o banheiro tem um cheiro ruim. O café da manhã é bem caro (30 USD por pessoa) pelo que oferece. E mesmo pagando esse valor, há itens básicos no cardápio que demandam pagamento extra (tipo 10 USD). Não é compatível com um hotel 5 estrelas.

Beautiful building, nice facilities, staff really let this place down
Pros:

Beautiful building, suite is quite big and nice

Cons:

The staff here are very rude. Especially Cesar from the front desk. The lifts also need a service as they don’t close properly and keep opening. Also frustrating you cannot open the doors in the apartment as they have restrictors on
