Sofitel Montevideo Casino Carrasco & Spa

Renovated top to bottom and reopened as a luxury hotel in 2013, Carrasco's historic casino is easily the showiest sleep in town. The monumental early-20th-century building, long a major waterfront landmark in this well-heeled neighborhood, sports 116 rooms, including 23 distinctive suites, complemented by a casino, a spa with indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and Uruguay's most sumptuous breakfast spread.
