Amazing experience. Thoughtful professional staff within a perfectly maintained luxury hotel on a World Class Beach. Five Star food and coffee I will be dreaming of for months. Spent a week there feeling as if I was going home each night.

Hyatt Centric Montevideo
Very friendly staff, beautiful bar and fantastic breakfast buffet. We stayed in the standard room and it was very comfortable, large and clean. Only small gripe is that you have to chromecast to the TV which can be a hassle and it would be nice to watch local stations sometimes!
