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.

Great little boutique hotel, located in the Old Town of Montevideo. Really close to the Buquebus ferry terminal from Buenos Aires. Jeronimo, really helpful and reached out to me night before about my arrival from BA and allowed for early check in. Hotel located within walking distance to historic sites and restaurants, hotel really quiet and clean. Definitely recommend staying here.

This was a gift I gave to my son and his girlfriend: 2 nights stay at Fauna. My son said this was one of the best hotels he ever stayed in. Absolutely loved everything about it and can’t stop bragging how great his stay was. I thank the owner and staff for an amazing experience!

10/10

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.

This is a very clean and quiet small (10 rooms) hotel on the main walking street of the old city. Jerónimo and Soledad, the proprietors, are extremely friendly and helpful with making recommendations and reservations and go out of their way for their guests. Overall one of the best small hotel experiences that I have had. There is no restaurant or breakfast service but there are plenty of places nearby
