4/10 Fair

Nice place but expensive and not worth the money
The place is very beautiful and clean but our room was right on the road we couldn't open the window. The room was stuffy and very small. Much more than listed. The staff is very kind and the breakfast is poor. Good location

Comfy stay in Historic Colonia
Decoded to come to Colonia for an overnight trip from Buenos Aires and so glad we did!! Quaint hotel that has rooms around a gorgeous central courtyard and efficient use of space. Bathrooms we clean and gorgeously created from a historic building. Rooms were ready early by a few hours. Continental breakfast was good with a second story view of the river. Also guests get a discount at their sister hotel on the river

Excellent boutique hotel in a fabulous location in the historic old town. Small room but with a king size bed. Continental buffet breakfast, more than adequate.
Jaymini, 2-night trip

Lovely and steeped in history!
My stay at Posada Plaza Mayor was absolutely lovely!  It looked exactly as on their website and on Hotels.com, which is how I booked.  I visited Colonia from Buenos Aires, where I’m staying for several weeks.  I know that many people do Colonia as a daytrip from BA, but I’m so glad that I chose to spend the night.  Posada Plaza Mayor takes you back in time to help you really feel the history of Colonia.  They have done a wonderful job in updating the hotel to make it modern, while keeping many elements of the original building for its charm.  The bathroom is totally modern.  Great toiletries. The breakfast was upstairs with a view of the river.
