Hotel Sofitel Montevideo Casino Carrasco and Spa
Uruguay’s capital city, Montevideo, has no shortage of incredible accommodations, but jaws tend to drop when guests walk into the lobby of the Hotel Sofitel Montevideo Casino Carrasco and Spa. A national landmark that first opened in 1921, the property’s Belle Époque architecture, countless chandeliers, marble columns, manicured grounds, and stained-glass domed ceiling all lend to the “grand hotel” feeling.
Counting 116 rooms, Sofitel Montevideo is a large hotel, but it is well situated in an upscale neighborhood, and the golden shores of Carrasco Beach are just across the road. Amenities include SoSpa, complete with a hammam and sauna, heated indoor and outdoor pools, a modest fitness center, a balcony bar, Restaurant 1921 (serving French-inspired and regional cuisine), and a glitzy on-site casino.
Despite the hotel’s ornamental styling, the rooms are entirely modern. Spacious layouts are dressed in dark wood, upgraded suites feature freestanding tubs, and rooms that face the Rio de la Plata enjoy a Juliette balcony.
Sofitel Montevideo is closer to the international airport (15 minutes driving) than the city center’s central landmarks and attractions, making it a better option for short-stay travelers passing through or those who want to retreat to a quiet residential area after a day of touring.
