Very relaxing place to stay
I really enjoyed getting away for the weekend. The hotel is a bit far from the city but it has its advantages. It is a very relaxing place, big rooms, superb breakfast. I highly recommend if you want a place to relax.

Total letdown
This is in no way a 4 star boutique hotel. Lovely on the outside and the main reception/ sitting area but the rooms are a complete letdown. Expecting a king size bed suite we were shown a shabby room with a sagging double bed (the yellow/orange one in the photos)but, after complaining, we were given a slightly better one which we accepted as we were only staying one night. The hotel simply lacks most of the amenities it claims:- no restaurant, no bar, no in-room safe, no bathrobes, no toiletries other than a bar of soap. Not even a central light in the room, just 2 dim bedside lamps. No t.v. - okay in the summer but hopeless on a miserable autumn evening with torrential rain. Air conditioning antiquated...i could go on..Plus side, a really good breakfast, fine location and the owner, Hugo, is charming and helpful. The place is not without charm but is shabby rather than chic.

La Bluette is a must experience for excellence
Its like checking into what Restoration Hardware or Ralph Loren's house but decorated better and is not a facade. Hugo and his family are the inn keepers in the True sense of the word. You will be safe and comfortable as an egg in cotton. Bravo for those that understand this business. Bravo Hugo and family.

Hotel La Bluette - disappointing
Not on beach as expectied, across busy, noisy Ruta 1, behind a large dune and a beachfront building belonging to another hotel. No dinner, or any drinks available at the hotel. Nowhere nearby for dinner. Owner recommended driving to Punta del Este as the only good option - round triip 45 minutes minimum. Hotel decorated nicely, but with few amenities, lacking comfortable chairs, wifi minifrig, luggage racks, etc. In rooms. Mosquitos and other insects a problem.

ok
Overall stay was OK, but nothing amazing. Nice old villa but found it lacking in atmosphere. We actually didn't find the staff very helpful - we were not given any information about either the area & didn't receive any info regarding facilities at the hotel (nor was any booklet in our room), which would have been helpful. So perhaps the Hotel had a lot of things to offer that we didn't know about... Room had character but was very basic in what it offered, & was lacking any of the nice touches I'd expect in a boutique hotel. You will need a car if you stay here.

Lovely at first glance...let down inside
The building itself upon arrival was lovely and the rooms comfortable. The personel were very friendly and helpful. The beach across the street was beautiful and breakfast on the front veranda was nice however the seats were not wiped down and there was just a runned down feeling to the place. It was difficult to get to the pool because the plants were over grown and unattended. There were very few chairs at the pool and some of them with broken wood and not able to be used. We felt let down at the hotel. For the price, it felt like we were paying too much for a place that felt neglected.

this hotel is cute and right across from a beach. However, for $150usd I would have expected a TV and maybe a fridge in the room. it's quite expensive for what it is

Pleasant hotel managed by nice and frendly people
The hotel is comfortable, clean, and the front desk and hotel employees are very kind and nice. Don't expect luxury, but a neat and pleasant environment. Hotel location may be a problem if you don't have a car and want to go to Punta repeatedly. I enjoyed the stay and would certainly return.

Very much enjoyed this hotel. We were given a very large and confortable room. Owner and his family are very nice and friendly. One thing only, the hotel is not on the beach as pictures may lead you (and me) to think.

Ideal para desenchufarte y pasar unos días de paz.
El concepto del hotel es básicamente apartarse de todo para vivir unos días de descanso. Tiene detalles hermosos por donde se lo mire. Es tipo posada con una atención súper personalizada. El hecho de que no cuenta con tv en las habitaciones al principio se hace un poco dificil, pero luego de un día unos se empieza a acostumbrar y a lograr descansar de verdad. La única sugerencia que haría es que sería muy agradable que pusieran aunque sea musica funcional en el lugar donde se desayuna. Música clásica instrumental, muy suave. Ya que es un poco tenso e inhibidor desayunar en silencio junto a otras personas que uno no conoce. Con la vista y la decoración un poco de música complementaria de manera maravillosa según mi opinión.

El hotel es muy lindo y bien ubicado, área de piscina agradable, el desayuno rico y bien servido pero se debe pedir con tiempo aunque tiene excelente amplitud de horario, pero, en las habitaciones no hay teléfono, televisor ni nevera o mini bar, lo cual para un día frío o lluvioso hace incómoda la estadía Personal muy amable y atención personalizada los propios dueños estas pendiente de todo
