Hotel Carrasco

Hotel Carrasco is a luxury property featuring French architectural design situated along the Montevideo coastline, characterized by ornate ceilings, marble staircases, and expansive windows facing the Rio de la Plata. The building houses multiple guest rooms and suites, a casino, swimming facilities, wellness services, and several event venues.

The building opened in 1921 under the design of architect Jacques Dunant and represented Belle Epoque luxury for wealthy visitors to the Montevideo coast. Since its founding, it has become a landmark structure reflecting the architectural aspirations of early 20th century Montevideo.

The hotel serves as a gathering place where visitors experience the refined elegance and architectural details that shaped early 20th century Montevideo's high society. Walking through its spaces allows guests to sense how the building connected the city to European luxury and style during that era.

Visitors can explore the public areas and facilities during operating hours, experiencing the building's interior spaces and amenities firsthand. The location on the coast provides access to nearby waterfront paths and dining options within walking distance of the main building.

The property became the first hotel in Uruguay to eliminate single-use plastics, demonstrating commitment to environmentally conscious operations. This initiative shows how traditional luxury establishments can reshape their practices to align with modern sustainability demands.
