Hotel no coração da cidade

Minha estadia no Fauna foi muito boa. A chegada, com o atendimento cuidadoso dos proprietários, que nós receberam e ainda deram dicas muitos boas de restaurantes na região. Os quartos são bem confortáveis e silenciosos. O hotel e bem novinho e charmoso, com uma decoração muito bonita. A região do centro de Montevideo, onde está o hotel, ainda é um pouco deserta em, determinados horários, mas nos sentimos seguros para caminhar por ali. O hotel fica a poucos metros do Mercado do Porto, que é uma região com várias opções gastronômica. Também está bem próximo da orla.

Fauna was a delightful place to stay in Montevideo. It is an easy walk from the boat to Fauna, and Geronimo is super-friendly and helpful. The living room is very comfortable, and we enjoyed coffee there in the morning and after-dinner drinks there before we went to bed. The old city is charming, and Geronimo had excellent suggestions about where to go to eat.

Lovely hotel in Montevideo’s old town

This hotel is lovely! The check-in was easy, the room was beautiful, and it had lots of nice amenities. I wish we could have stayed more than one night. The neighborhood had several places to eat within walking distance and the ocean is a block or so away.
