This B&B, part of the El Viajero chain is perfectly located, a very short walk when you get off the ferry and an even shorter walk to the old town. The staff were great and prepared a great breakfast, at least compared to what we had been betting in a lot of Argentina! We're finding that Uruguay is not cheap... More

This is a very charming B&B in one of the most romantic cities of South America, Colonia del Sacramento. It is located within walking distance of all the best attractions in the Old City and we felt that it was a very safe neighborhood. It is also very close to the place where you can take the ferry to Buenos... More

We didn{t feel like we were missing out from not being insite the old city walls because we were very, very close. The staff were very friendly. The rooms were basic, but that´s what we expected and in line with their website. They were... More

It turns out that there is an El Viajero hostel a few hundred yards away from the Posado El Viajero, so I started off by going to the wrong one. Probably would help if they made that clear on the email communications especially as both are owned by the same chain, and lots of people make the same mistake. I... More

A very nice place having all the aminities (wifi, computers) in a very homely setting. Room and bathroom was clean and large. Breakfast was excellent and had home-made touches to it. As mentioned by others, the location is perfect. Easily within reach of the ferry terminal and right next to the historic town center. Staff's very service-minded and at least... More

El Viajero is part of a hostels chain. The one n Colonia is centrally located and well equipped. It's very clean (especially the kitchen); beds were quite comfortable (8 bed dorm) and breakfast was OK. The guy at the reception could smile more.

Nice house. The room was very comfortable. The wifi in room was excellent! Breakfast very good. Ideal for backpackers because of close walking distance from the ferry. Very friendly and helpful staff. Also the distance to the old town was very close.

Great place to explore Colonia del Sacramento: comfortable rooms with a large bath room, good breakfast (nice facturas) and friendly and helpful staff. The hostel is close to the ferry terminal and the town centre... It is ideal for backpackers who would like to stay in a (bit more) comfortable hostel.

We traveled to Colonia del Sacramento in November from Buenos Aires. When we got off the ferry we realized it was only a short 5 minute walk from the ferry and about a 5 minute walk from historic center. The B and B is very clean and the front desk people were extremely friendly and very welcoming. We did have... More
