Your guide to the best luxury hotels in Montevideo
Hyatt Centric Montevideo · PocitosFor this guide we have gathered the best hotels in Montevideo: three luxury hotels, from 150 € a night.At no extra cost: booking through suitespot costs the same as booking direct with the hotel – the benefits come on top, free of charge.
Three luxury hotels in Montevideo – and how to choose
Two of the best hotels in Montevideo are in Pocitos, one in Carrasco.
Sofitel Montevideo Carrasco · CarrascoRight on the Rambla in Pocitos, with the water outside the door, stands the Hyatt Centric Montevideo. A little inland in the same district you stay at the Hotel Montevideo.
Further east, in the leafy villa district of Carrasco, the Sofitel Montevideo Carrasco also looks out from the Rambla.
Our travel advisors’ insider tip
In Montevideo you can book the view of the Río de la Plata on purpose.
The two hotels on the Rambla list categories with a water view, seven in total: the Sofitel Montevideo Carrasco with four – both Luxury rooms, the Junior Suite and the Prestige Suite – and the Hyatt Centric Montevideo with three.
Why it matters: the upgrade comes upon availability. If the view matters to you, secure it through the category – then it is part of your booking.
Our advice: the most affordable way to a water view is the Sofitel Montevideo Carrasco from 150 €, with a 100 US dollar hotel credit. At the Hyatt Centric Montevideo, plan two nights and the suitespot benefits apply.
Where to stay in Montevideo: Pocitos or Carrasco
For travelers, Montevideo comes down to three districts.
Hotel Montevideo · PocitosPocitos is the city’s beach district: densely built, with cafés, restaurants and the city beach right on the Rambla. Our recommendation: the Hyatt Centric Montevideo with 20 categories, seven of them suites. For families, the Hotel Montevideo with its Family Suite and Residence.
Carrasco lies further east, green and quiet, with villas, gardens and wide beaches. Our recommendation: the Sofitel Montevideo Carrasco for the view of the Río de la Plata and the hotel credit.
The Ciudad Vieja, the old town on the peninsula, is the historic heart: the Teatro Solís, Plaza Independencia with the Palacio Salvo and the Mercado del Puerto. Come here for the day; in the evening the music draws you back.
For orientation: ferries cross the Río de la Plata from the port of Montevideo to Buenos Aires, and to the west lies the old town of Colonia del Sacramento, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Suites and views of the Río de la Plata: the best hotels in Montevideo from the inside

In autumn and spring the weather is mild, ideal for the wineries inland and long walks through the Ciudad Vieja. From June to August Montevideo belongs to its cafés, the Teatro Solís and a glass of Tannat by the fire.
And whatever the date: the suitespot benefits apply in January just as in July.
How long to stay: two to three nights, ideally as a stage between Buenos Aires and the Uruguayan coast.
At the Sofitel Montevideo Carrasco and the Hotel Montevideo the benefits apply from the first night; the Hyatt Centric Montevideo requires two nights.
You earn points and status at all three hotels: with ALL (Accor) at the Sofitel Montevideo Carrasco, with World of Hyatt at the Hyatt Centric Montevideo and with the Leaders Club at the Hotel Montevideo.
Breakfast, credit and exclusive services at a 5-star hotel
What our travel advisors arrange most often in Montevideo is lunch at the Mercado del Puerto: in the nineteenth-century cast-iron market hall you sit at the counter in front of the embers, order asado and a medio y medio with it, half white wine and half sparkling, a specialty of the city.
