This is THE place to stay in Montevideo.

This B&B exceeded our expectations. Well appointed, beautiful garden where one could have breakfast and lounge. Personal touches everywhere. The highlight are the owners who are very welcoming, warm, helpful and generous. Everything was super clean. We stayed in the ALQUIMISTA Room. Very comfortable bed. High quality bed sheets, towels. Nice shower. We will happily stay there again when we come to Montevideo.

Spent 5 nights as part of a combined ‘Buenos Aires/Montevideo’ trip. Always look for small stylish hotels and the Alquimista is absolutely spot on. Beautiful 1920s building, lovely room, freshly-cooked breakfast, and just an all-round wonderful ‘feel’ staying here. The real highlight though was the welcoming hospitality and local advice from Carolina and Mark - do ask how to find Jueves 5 for a post-city-sightseeing drink if you want to sample an out-of-the-way bar which tourists rarely find. Also have bikes to borrow which is a great way to explore the city beyond the immediate centre and the coast as Montevideo is mainly flat and cyclist-friendly. I can’t see how anyone would not enjoy staying here and I recommend it highly.

Tack till Max och Carolina!

Ett underbart ställe som hade allt trots sin småskalighet. Mycket personligt, fantastisk service och omtanke, super frukost och en liten restaurang med underbar mat. Fin liten trädgård att vistas i. Närhet till beachen. Max och Carolina är väl värda sina gäster.
