Overall Ratings & Reviews Posada del Virrey

Gorgeous from the outside, and empty from within. The check in reception was frankly terrifying - zero warm welcome or comfort, simply demanding a passport and what we wanted. Well, I'd like to check into the room I booked. After filling out the forms, she literally threw the key at us and said that there was a pool and breakfast available - no showing us where any of this was. Went to our room to discover that it was actually OUTSIDE the hotel, after the front entrance, on the street. The room itself was fabulous, that I recommend. Only if you hate sleep. Cars, motorcycles, and wild dogs mean that you will be kept up all night. Would have loved to find the pool. Would have loved to have breakfast. Would have loved to talk to someone who cared enough to tell me about the history of this beautiful place. This is not the place they advertise, and it's not worth the price if you want a good night's sleep.

Spacious room in a great location. Old architecture

It is very convenient at walking distance of historic center. Our room had a nasty smell coming from the sewing system

A beautiful old building with character. Room was large and had all the necessary amenities. Breakfast was excellent. Location is very central for visiting the old town of Colonia.

Individual rooms, good location. Breakfast was good.

Bathroom was so cramped that you had to turn sideways to get around the sink.

Being in the historic district is the way to see and experience Colonia. Some amenities could have been better (e.g. wi-fi, bathroom fixtures). Staff was great. Breakfast was awesome.

Beautiful hotel with spacious rooms spotless baths. We felt like we went back in time. Breakfast was well presented and delicious. Wi-Fi is only in the lobby area. Rooms are quiet from the street; however you could hear the TV sets and talking from other guests.

Awesome location, beautiful interior. Exactly what I imagined Colonia to feel like. Breakfast was well done and the staff was very accommodating

So rude. Nothing like being handed a key by the receptionist while looking the other way. Also, we don’t pack a heavy suitcase but if a hotel is going to make you go up three flight of stairs, it would be nice to get some assistance. Oh and being told that there is only 80 liters of hot water to use for a shower...I’m not one of the actors of Orange is the New Black. Beautiful hotel, room is good though. Don’t book a hotel at all. Get in and get out.

Claudia had made everything especial and easy for us. Perfect hotel!!

Just wanted to take a day off from from Buenos Aires. Colinia was just right. It was nice and quiet. Easy half mile walk from the ferry to the hotel. The property is very close to a number of restaurants and shops. The breakfast which was included was good too.

Great location, clean and comfortable room, grea t breakfast.

Relaxing. Charming and a good breakfast.

This is a lovely and historical hotel with lots of character. The staff are friendly and helpful. A safe area with a restaurants close by and within walking distance. If you want to explore this historical town it's a great place to stay. Feels like living in the past.

Passamos apenas 1 noite mas foi suficiente para ficar apaixonada e querer voltar. A pousada é muito bem localizada, tem conforto e super aconchegante. O quarto grande, a cama maravilhosa e o café da manhã excelente!!! Amamos a nossa estadia!!!

Lugar perfeito ! Adoramos

Very good and romantic hotel just as Colonia del Sacramento itself. Smart to know some Spanish when you live here as they didn’t know English very well.

We arrived on the 24th of February and were 'greeted' by an extremely rude hotel staff, who kep shouting at us for not understanding her instructions to creade a code that would unlock our keys. It was the worst check-in treatment I've ever seen. The lady did not bother to show us where our room was, or what were the breakfast hours - and was very agressive when we asked her those very basic questions. She tried to make it very clear that she was doing a favor to be speaking to us at all. Terrible, terrible experience. There are certainly better options of hotels in Colonia.

El wifi es malisimo, hay habitaciones que el aire acondicionado hace mucho ruido, si les toca la habitacion 1 que da a la calle, imposible dormir viernes y sabados por los ruidos externos. Lo mejor es el caudal de agua para bañarse , las camas y la ubicacion muy buena, podria ser mas economico De todos modos uruguay es mas caro que miami , y a los argentinos nos matan , no vuelvo mas
