My 15 year old son and I stayed at Plaza Mayor during a visit to Colonia. The hotel is very conveniently located near the central plazas in the old town, the lighthouse, the museums and the waterside walks. It is built in a square around a central atrium, complete with a fountain and citrus trees. The staff is efficient and... more

Beautiful stay in a wonderful quite town. Had a suite that was fantastic. Room was perfect and lovely. Hotel breakfast was very good and the front desk staff was outstanding. Highly recommend this quite small hotel. Go during the week, weekends are to busy in the little town. Not a whole heck of a lot to do in the old... more

The Hotel Plaza Mayor is a very peaceful serene place with its courtyard and fountain. The front desk is very friendly and helpful. Four of us stayed there--had the king and the queen rooms. Both open to the courtyard. Beds are comfortable and you can walk everywhere. more

I agree with the other reviews - a lovely place to stay. We had a room off the lovely courtyard that was nice. Internet worked well in the room. The only negative is that our room was on the side road which was not a problem except the night we were there there was a festival on the plaza. Enjoyed... more

We started out our trip to Colonia at another hotel and the next day we checked out to stay here. The guy at reception when we inquired about a room was wonderful and when we checked in, Anna at the front desk could not have been nicer! The location is perfect and the hotel is so quaint. No pool but... more

We stayed 2 nights at the Posada Plaza Mayor in Colonia after 8 days in Buenos Aires. What a change! This town is the antithesis of life across the river. It is a quiet, peaceful and uncongested. It’s like going back in time 200 years (but with modern requirements like plumbing, A/C, good restaurants and internet). The silence of the... more

Stayed at this Posada for one night a couple of weeks ago and it was great! Staff were efficient, rooms were clean and of a high standard. The courtyard is beautiful. I would also highly recommend the Sacramento Restaurant just down the road! more

We stayed at this hotel in Feb 07 for one night. Other reviewers are right, the hotel is in THE perfect location in Colonia, and is a beautiful small boutique hotel. The courtyard is stunning, and a great place to sit and relax and read. The staff is excellent and very helpful - the man on the night desk is... more

The Posada Plaza Mayor has a beautiful courtyard with a fountain and gardens and the back yard looks out onto the water. We stayed at one of the less expensive rooms upstairs (which was just fine) but the rooms that opened up directly onto the courtyard looked really lovely. The location is also fantastic, within walking distance to all the... more
