We had a wonderful stay at Charco Hotel… enjoying very much the restaurant and the spacious, beautiful room. We stayed in a Suite (Room 2) and the room was lovely. But the bathroom was tiny and it was directly on the street at the entrance (even before the reception área). Fortunately, the street was a quiet one, and noise was not a problem. I would highly Recommend the hotel and restaurant.

A wonderful boutique hotel with only 7 rooms right on the Rio de Plata. Best room is room 7 with balcony on the river. Service was great. Restaurant was a wonderful setting on the river with a limited menu. But enough choice for anyone and really good quality food. One of the very best around.

Very nice property. Quick ride from the ferry. In the middle of the old town so very walkable. The property and the are around it are beautiful. We tried both breakfast and dinner at the facility, both were good. The rooms were comfortable, spacious, quiet and well equipped. The only thing is the tiny bugs that filled the pillows and the bed covers but I guess nothing you can do about that.

I have been several times before at the Bistro which is very good. This ttme we decided to book the hotel It is in the best part of Colonia, really a colonial city around the hotel.

Good place to stay. Spacious rooms and very conveniently located. Better to ask for a room facing the river. The 2 rooms facing the street can get noisy
