Posada de la Flor

Me sentí como en la casa de mi abuela por la atención y el desayuno.

A charming pension with an attractive courtyard and roof terrace. Very good value for money. Best of all was the service. My stay was brief and forced (by virtue of a ferry cancellation due to fog) so I had to leave very early but was provided with a generous and thoughtful packed breakfast to takeaway.

If you like new and fancy, this is not going to be the place for you. If you like quirky, charming and unique, then this place is a gem. It's an old but well-maintained pension with a lot of character. Everything was spotlessly clean and worked perfectly. The rooms had great air conditoning, great bathrooms, comfortable beds. (We didn't have trouble with the shower curtain wrapping around us, as others did.) The rooms are all named after flowers; ask for the "NoMeOlvides" (Forgetmenot) room---it's the best. The family 3-bed room was also very very nice. Located a brief 5-minute walk from the historic section. The breakfast is assorted pastries (fancy ones) and whole fruit with tea, juice and coffee; not a full breakfast but hearty enough to get you filled up. But, the best thing at this hotel is the service. They were so helpful to us in any little thing we needed, including scheduling cars for us and finding an English-speaking guide. The photos on Tripadvisor are exactly accurate and are what you get. Rooms are slightly cramped: adequate but not huge. We paid $79 USD for a night in an upgraded room, but a $60 room (two twin beds) is still quite nice, and all rooms face the garden. If you want something a bit fancier, go for $100 and pick the Don Antonio; if you want something a lot fancier, go for $300 and pick Charco.

La terraza que muestran no tiene esta vista, ya que le hicieron un edificio pegado. Las habitaciones poco comodas y al baño le faltaba mantenimiento. Con respecto al desayuno es escueto y sin frutas. Es bastante ruidoso, sobre todo a primera hora.

Hermoso lugar para descansar, no es el Sheraton ni el Hilton, es... un hotel pueblerino, con aberturas de madera con fallebas como en lo de la abuela, rejas de hierro, un hermoso jardín interno y todo el estilo antiguo que uno espera encontrar en una ciudad histórica como es Colonia del Sacramento. La ubicación es excelente para recorrer la ciudad y al mismo tiempo brinda la tranquilidad suficiente para descansar a la noche. La habitación cómoda y limpia, TV, aire acondicionado, wifi etc. El desayuno es algo limitado. En resumen, una opción económica -con todo lo que ello implica- pero muy recomendable.

O quarto é agradável e o chuveiro esquenta rápido, porém o café da manhã deixou a desejar. Sem proteína, queijo ou ovo. Só tinha um suco de caixa na mesa e serviram um prato com pães pequenos e doces. Ficou a desejar.
