“We had a lovely stay in a charming hotel in Santiago. The location was ideal, just across from Parque Alameda, and we enjoyed the beautiful light streaming in through the skylight in our room. The staff were warm and kind, making us feel welcome and offering us drinks upon arrival and before we left. The bar on the ground floor was comfortable and cozy, perfect for relaxing and chatting. The rooms were new and clean, providing a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Despite a couple of minor drawbacks, such as a slightly damp smell in the bathroom and some noise from the street, we would still highly recommend this hotel.”
