Dazzler by Wyndham Montevideo stands at 21 de Setiembre 2752, on the border of Pocitos and Punta Carretas, a short walk from the beach and the shopping district. The Expedia listing shows a seasonal outdoor pool, an on-site spa, a restaurant and bar, a terrace and garden, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning in all rooms and a free breakfast buffet. It is pet friendly, with fees, and offers self-parking for a surcharge as well as an area shuttle and tour assistance. For travellers who want more facilities than a standard business hotel, at a moderate price, it is a strong choice. Its location suits those who like to eat out in Pocitos, walk the Rambla and use taxis to reach the old town.
Location and getting around: the hotel is in a lively, residential-commercial neighbourhood with many restaurants and cafés, and Pocitos Beach is a short walk away. Ciudad Vieja is a taxi or bus ride of roughly fifteen to twenty minutes, depending on traffic. Parque Rodó, the Rambla and Punta Carretas Shopping are all close, making it practical for walkers and runners. The hotel also assists with tours and offers an area shuttle, handy for day trips to Colonia, Punta del Este and the wineries.
Rooms and facilities: rooms are modern and air conditioned, and the hotel's list of facilities is generous for its category. The outdoor pool is seasonal, so it is most useful from late spring through summer. A spa, terrace and garden provide places to relax, while the restaurant and bar handle meals and drinks. Free breakfast is a good saving. A gym is mentioned by guests, and the property has banquet and meeting rooms for business visitors.
Who it suits: couples, families and independent travellers who value a pool and a free breakfast without paying luxury prices. It is also popular with business visitors. Good to know: parking is available for a surcharge, pets are accepted with fees, and the street can be busy during the day, so request a higher floor or a quieter side for light sleepers. Compared with the nearby Mercure it has a pool and free breakfast, but rooms are in a busier street. Book early for summer, when the area fills with holidaymakers.
