This review is about my trip to Uruguay in January 2008.
About Uruguay
-------------------
Well Uruguay is situated in South America and is squashed between Brazil and Argentina.
The country has only got 3.5 million people who live there and that is all so overall the country is rather tiny in population size.
The country has a Presidential government and the most popular language is Spanish.
The capital city is Montevideo and it is also the most populated as well with over 1.5 million people living there.
Weather
-------------
In Uruguay they have weather very similar to our weather just not as wet. In January when I went to visit the weather was extremely warm and was hitting on average around 33c each day and in the evenings there was a much cooler breeze and temperatures dropped to around 16c.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: exceptional Review of Montevideo
Advantages: 4 Star hotel, Situated in good location, Friendly staff, Beautiful hotel, Good hotel facilities Disadvantages: Expensive
a nice feel to them you can feel the build quality in the rooms the beds are comfortable the desk is made from oak tree they look and feel great.
One thing that I usually find with hotel room bathrooms is that they are small and in fact too small I feel like I don?t have enough space to stand in them and that it cannot be comfortable. However the bathrooms in the Crowne Plaza are perfect they just look beautiful and posh. I had enough space to stand around; I had space to put my clothes and enough room to shave without banging into the mirror I guess you can get my point.
Bed and breakfast
As part of the deal that I got was evening meal and breakfast included with the rooms (We had to pay for drinks) but it was a very good deal. We went down for dinner and were greeted by a very helpful member of staff who took us to a table ...
Advantages: Very central, late night bar Disadvantages: Poor car-parking, a little on the expensive side (but worth it!)
Stay: 29th April 2007, 2 nights.
Price: £300 (inc. full breakfast)
Situation: The Plaza is situated in the centre of Cardiff, just one street away from the main shops and 3-5 minute walk from the main clubs and pubs. When driving to the hotel, I found it easily accessible but was a little disappointed that the car park was not attached to the hotel. It wasn't very dignified having to haul my suitcase across the main road! Plus, car parking was charged at an extra discounted rate.
Reception: Apart from this initial annoyance, the hotel was fantastic. Foyer and reception were easily accessed, with pleasant and cheerful staff and porter service if necessary.
Room: Very impressive. Queen bed, plush decoration, clean and tidy, lovely big bathroom (although the full mirror along the wall of the bath/ shower was rather off ...
