The Gran Hotel America is a little less than "grand" but does the job if you're looking for clean basic accommodation in central Montevideo. Make absolutely sure you get one of the so called "Superior" rooms. I walked down the 7/8 floors of spiral stair case from our "superior" room to the lobby just out of interest. By the time... More

Hotel America is well located in the centre - the buses to and from airport can be taken just two or three blocks away on the same street . I had a superior single room - very small but adequate for one. The shower is really tiny - bad planning clearly because there is a bidet which just takes up... More

Friendly staff welcomes you. A Delicous breaksfast is served... .with the famous "Dulce de Leche" that orginates from Uruguay. Decent hotel with rates equivalent to $120 in Miami or New York. It is not the Hilton, but a perfectly neat place to stay at.

The Gran American hotel Montevideo Uruguay seems like the Fawlty Towers of South America. We booked this place with booking.com they had no records. They assured us we had a room for the night and told us maybe we should go for lunch and everything will be fine when we get back. When we get back and a new fellow... More

Having spent over seven years continuously on the road in rented accommodation from hotels to apartments to hostels and much more in between, we have a good idea of what we look for in reserving a bed for the night. Unless otherwise stated, assume the reviewed accommodation to have the following facilities: in-room internet connection for personal laptop, air conditioning,... More

It was a nice stay... More

I will do this in English and spanish. This is a really simple clean and nice hotel, it is newly renovated, and the location is unbeatable. I loved the breakfast buffet, a nice continental bufet wuth some cold cuts (amazing) and cheese, everything was super clean! and the staff is really nice. The price was great we paid USD 100... More

Gran Hotel America is a fantastic moderately priced 3 star hotel. The beds are comfortable and now just about the entire hotel is renovated (it was in the throes having its last several rooms renovated when I was there in Sept. of 12). The rooms now have a modern edge to them with flat screen TVs. It is located only... More

The staff at Gran Hotel America could not be more helpful, courteous or pleasant. Particularly Ignacio who provided great advice on the city and how to get about it. The Hotel itself has seen better days, but renovations are underway and its central location makes for a good position to visit this fascinating city.
