Hotel San Martin

This is a traditional style of hotel built quite a few decades ago. You may find many like this in the area that goes from Piriapolis to Punta del Este. All in all, it was more than acceptable for the price I paid. The location is great, across the main square of the Peninsula area, a step from Gorlero street, where you have all the main attractions. Very close to Playa Brava and not that far from other beaches either. It is ideal for whoever is on foot, as you can walk pretty much everywhere of importance from the hotel. Even when the hotel shows its age, it's well kept and clean. The room I stayed in had a small fridge, a TV-set with cable channels, AC, an en-suite bathroom and not much of a view (just the building next door) but I wasn't expecting one anyway, and in any case you can pop out to the second floor terrace if you wish, where you can see the beach a fair bit around town. The floors have lift access. The staff members were friendly. Breakfast was included in the price, and it was fine with coffee/tea, the typical Uruguayan pastries and a few other things (you shouldn't expect any sort of cooked breakfast as it's not really the local standard)

Good shower. Good mattress. Excellent location. There's a piano at the breakfast area!

the breakfast is great and the front desk staff are knowledgeable and very helpful. excellent location

The location is fantastic you can go walking everywhere and the bus stop is just across the street

Location and staff are really good. I also liked the breakfast
