Valparaíso hotels

Pros: Location, staff, service

Cons: A little bit of traffic from the street

Pros: The staff and service

Pros: - Very friendly reception - Bed was compfy - Location is perfect - Very nice view from the rooftop

Cons: - Light in the bathroom was poor

Pros: Clean property, comfortable beds, great breakfast, beautiful view from our room and terrace

Cons: N/a

Pros: I really liked the decor and ambiance of the hotel. The staff were all helpful and location was great. For me, having the kettle to boil water for tea in the room was an advantage. Also the room was spacious enough to include multiple comfortable chairs, which was also nice.

Pros: It is a classy hotel with beautiful interior design. great location. quiet yet in heart of cerro alegre. the view from rooftop terrace is Amazing

Pros: Breakfast was great, cook eggs to order, good variety. Staff very helpful. Great location in part of city where all the walking tours wander about.

Pros: The hotel was centrally located near many tourist attractions. The room was spacious and clean. Staff made copies of travel documents for free. Breakfast was good and eggs were made to order. Their driver picked us up from the bus station and brought us to the bus station when we left.

Cons: None

Pros: VERY friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was great, cooked eggs, toast, avocado, fruit, cereal. Shower was great (in twin room). Wonderful place to stay!!

Pros: Good shower, friendly staff. Great location

Cons: Noisy seaguls

Pros: Our room was excellent, extremely clean and hot shower. Continental breakfast was magnificent, mixed of fruits, fresh eggs, jams and hot Chilean bread. The staff ladies were so friendly. even if they don’t speak fluent English, they were able to provide you great services and help. Location is excellent near to the main attractions, art street and it was only 7min by Uber from bus terminal, overall excellent services and quality hotel.

Cons: Nothing, all its great

Pros: Friendly staff, very clean, fantastic location, great breakfast, good shower and very nice bed linnen!

Pros: Atmosphere. It has a soul.

Pros: The rooms were nicely decorated and the location was ideal. Breakfast was lovely.

Cons: Recommend providing space heaters in the rooms for cooler months.

Pros: Lovely place to stay right in the art of the best art streets. Also very near the wonderful Tres Peces restaurant. Suggest you try both the accommodation and restaurant out. Both are very reasonably priced and the latter has delicious seafood.

Pros: Staff were all great, location is very central

Pros: The staff were all lovely and made us feel right at home. The room was super clean and had a really comfy bed and pillows, the shower in the bathroom had the perfect amount of pressure too.

Pros: Residential neighbourhood, high on the hills. Kitchenette

Cons: No restaurants close by (that we found), only take-aways. That said, the take-away we went to had excellent food

Pros: This is a lovely little homely B&B with absolutely stunning views. The owner was really lovely and helpful with a map and recommendations. We got an "apartment" which was an ensuite room with a little kitchenette. We didn't really make much use of it, but it was well kitted out for simple cooking with a stove and a large fridge with a few pots/plates etc. There was a wifi router in the kitchen so the signal was excellent. Breakfast in the morning was really good with fresh fruit and nice bread/cheese etc.

Cons: I actually really liked the location but this is not for you if you don't like a bit of a walk. We always walked into town down a steep hill which took about 15mins and was very pleasant. We generally took taxis back from town at night (and once when we were just tired!) which came to around 4000 chilean pesos a time. This was definitely worth the peace and quiet and the great views! It's also very close to the maritime museum and there's a lovely cafe just a couple of blocks away.

Pros: We booked this place last minute after our original booking turned out to be a fake one, and our party of 5 was stuck in Valparaiso at 8pm without accommodation. Hotel El Mirador was a good option to the alternative, with private units equipped with a kitchenette, fridge, and reliable Wifi. The staff was very attentive and helpful. The place is clean, well looked after, and above all, super quiet! There is a nice courtyard where guests can enjoy breakfast, coffee etc.

Cons: Nothing the hotel can do, but the location is a bit out of the way, as in quite far from the center, or other touristy areas. This is a problem more at night than during the day, due to the neighbourhood looking a bit sketchy. If you don't have your own car, you're pretty much relying on cabs and uber to move around.

Pros: Our host and the house

Cons: Valparaiso is a tatty and dirty town that is falling to pieces. B n b is in a very dirty and tatty street liered with dog turds.

Pros: A super clean, nice B&B. It’s one of the best I’ve seen. The owner is really nice and helpful. Breakfast is really good compared to the price. They also have parking spots which is difficult to find in this town. It’s worth staying here.

Pros: Price should have been my first indication. Very, very basic.

Cons: No shade on window. Nothing close by for food, etc. Extremely basic accommodation. I was not about to use the shower.

Pros: We really loved location on the hill with a beautiful view of Valparaiso The owner of the hotel was very nice and accommodating with all our requests Room was nice and bed really comfortable

Cons: Everything was perfect

Pros: Lovely house/room - with splendid views. Comfortable bed, hot shower &, for those wishing to self cater, very good kitchen facilities Good breakfast (warm bread, cheese/ham, jam, fresh fruit & tea/coffee) and, above all else, a very helpful and informative owner.

Cons: Nothing - the only small issue (for those who don’t like walking much - unlike us) is its about 20 mins to walk into main plaza and involves some stairs. However there are easy alternatives with many buses to avoid 15 minutes walk) and an ascensor (to avoid stairs)within 5 minutes of the accommodation.

Pros: Style and comfort. Staff very helpful

Cons: Noise from nightclubs st night

Pros: Wonderful stay in a beautiful boutique hotel. Anna the hostess was very lively and informative. Staff was great. Rooms were large and spacious and beautiful.

Pros: A very comfortable and beautiful hotel in a nice area of Valparaiso; staff very welcoming and helpful. Everything was perfect. The possibility to use the hotel parking was a significant advantage.

Cons: nothing

Pros: Stunning location and breakfast. Wonderful staff and building. Loved the bay window with harbour views in the room we had on our first night.

Cons: We had asked for a room with a view, but had to move from a room with a harbour view for our second night to a room with a "street view"

Pros: Special hotel for photography and old beauties lovers. The hotel has spectacular views from the room 7 to the bay and port.

Pros: The room was fantastic, the view was perfect and the staff was great. They had Legos for my child and the breakfast delivered to our room was a nice change of pace. The spa was hot and ready on our arrival!!!

Pros: Stunning location with sweeping views over the city, comfortable and beautifully furnished rooms, and enjoyable shared spaces. Close to some of the best spots for sightseeing, but the hotel is so nice you'll want to spend plenty of time there too! Lovely home-cooked breakfast is the icing on the cake.

Pros: Lovely view of Valparaíso from the best hot tubs in town. The breakfast simply delicious! A great experiance overall, would recommend for a romantic stay.

Pros: Staff and facilities, breakfast and cheese board were amazing, great location.

Cons: The hotel is a bit overpriced and there were issues with the water from the shower drain upstairs running down the interior wall and dripping out of the downstairs outlet in the kitchen. This issue was 'fixed' by changing rooms but only after the manager suggested that there was TOO much weight in the shower. I am 5'6'' 145lbs. They wanted me to move back to that room after it 'dried' out, but I said if I need to move due to issues with the facilities it mustn't be too big an issue to remain in the new room. Needless to say we didn't move again. Won't stay again, but would moderately recommend it for others with the noted caveat above.

Pros: Comfortable room, very clean. Nice en suite bathroom. Friendly and helpful owners, they provided a good breakfast and had good local knowledge. Lovely terrace to sit in at the back overlooking the city. Kitchen had everything I needed. Thank you very much!

Cons: It was perfect

Pros: The owners of this hostel are a French couple who speak English, Spanish, and French. They were very sweet and kind to us. We arrived late in the evening after being robbed. The owner helped us put a plastic covering over the broken window of our rental car. He was very kind and accommodating despite the fact that we did not communicate our late arrival time. The hostel was clean, big, and very cool inside. The rooms were nice and the location was pretty central, but also quiet and safe.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Great breakfast. Great city view. Nice hot shower (with hand-held shower head!). Cozy. We walked from the bus terminal and enjoyed the colorful art on our way despite the hill. The map around Valparaiso given and explained to us at check in was super helpful as well.

Cons: Laundry service took a little longer than expected (we should’ve checked when and how to collect our laundries beforehand).

Pros: Clean and comfortable accommodation. Main reason to recommend is the owner who gave us loads of excellent advice on where to go and what to see in Valparaiso. The showers were clean, warm and had a decent flow rate. There was a decent kitchen free to use and a really nice balcony with a nice view in the mornings. The front gate and door felt really secure which was great. The owner came out to great us and helped us into our taxi when we said goodbye. Would definitely recommend this hostel to others.

Cons: The breakfast was a little basic but we were offered as much tea and coffee as we wanted. Not a negative for the hostel as Valparaiso is just a hilly place, but guests should note that this hostel is on a steep hill. Again, the hostel owner explained to us the bus routes and taxi system so you can easily avoid the walk. We chose to walk and it was only 10 minutes from the historic centre.

Pros: Nice breakfast, kitchen, personell

Pros: It's a classic european hostel, really clean and comfy.

Cons: Everything was good!

Pros: Colors and view of the balcony

Pros: Wonderful people run this place. They are super kind and helpful! It is also very clean, comfortable, and quiet. I am already going back to stay more nights at this fabulous hostal!

Pros: Great hostel in a good location. And the hosts were kind, welcoming, and helpful with advice. Room was comfortable and clean. The hostel has a nice, easygoing warmth to it.

Cons: Everything was great.

Pros: Nice staff. Location is quiet and family friendly. Breakfast is modest, but good quality. Spacious central area accessible to guests. Nice location for walking around town and sight seeing. Owner provides good suggestions for sightseeing. Rooms are clean. Nice terrace to sit on and look out over city.

Cons: Building is somewhat run down, although it appears it's in the process of being renovated. Central area where guests can sit to eat/hang out is large, but lots of piles of random stuff (toys, paint cans, new windows, linens) everywhere. Looks a bit chaotic and looks like work in progress. Kitchen area is small - ok for limited number of guests, but would be difficult if multiple guests are present and need to cook.

Pros: This old family home being run as a small hotel is a treasure trove of family collectibles and is laid out well, with a beautiful outside terrace. Tea, coffee and filtered water are available at any time of day or night, usually accompanied by biscuits and, if you want, fascinating conversation. Both Carolina and Doris, the sisters who run the hotel, are well versed in Chilean history, politics, the local area and have lived in many places in Chile, so have a good knowledge of the country’s geography too. We followed their recommendations for our two day stay and feel we made the most of our short visit. Transport around the city is easy and cheap, so the location away from the main hotel and restaurant area is not a problem at all.

Cons: Very little to complain about, other than mentioning that some of the fittings show signs of age, such as the shower unit in our room, which is fitted with a very modern power shower, but the doors were coming off their sliders, the tray was slightly cracked and the powerful jets went straight over the top of the unit, soaking the room!

Pros: The owners, Doris and Carolina, are the only staff and from the start treated us more as friends than as guests at the hotel. The hotel is on the hill above Valparaiso, but with the information provided by our host, it was made easy to find our way in and out of the area, at very reasonable costs. Where else could you expect the host to provide you with a guided tour of the easy access from the town? The whole experience was enchanting!

Pros: Relaxing, nice area, great host.

Cons: The bed mattress was too soft.

Pros: This is basically a museum. Run by 2 sisters whose grand granddad build the house in 1919. Since then it was the family house and nothing has changed. You are in all the old stuff. Great breakfast on a Terrasse with a view over the city private parking (but a bit a challenge to get into the garage) Sisters who run it are perfect hosts Price Value is nice

Cons: The place has this old smell Bathroom was across the floor Beds are kind of old

Pros: Very warm attention. Perfect breakfast.

Cons: Slow wifi

Pros: This was the BEST hotel we stayed in, during our 3 weeks journey. And this was solely due to the 2 sisters who made you feel at home instantly. Whenever you come in, they offer coffee and tea, make pancakes, treat you like a part of the family! The room was great, filled with antiques and curiosities. We slept like angels and were spolt from the first to the last second

Cons: I personally did not mind, but the house is old, and as such has also an old bathroom. It's also steep uphill, so maybe not to be recommended for people with walking difficulties.

Pros: The two sisters who own the property are so gracious and helpful. Beautiful view of Valparaiso and ocean. Loved to see the twinkling lights of the city below at night. Nice to see how people live in this city

Cons: I would never drive here

Pros: The owners are delightful people. They are very friendly and helpful. The exterior terrace has a very nice view of the city and harbor.

Pros: Breakfast was amazing and delicious. Doris and Catarina are amazing people. A warm welcome and cups of coffee when required. They went beyond their call of duty and Catarina took me down to get the right tour and then when I was taking the bus to Santiago. Their consideration for me not speaking Spanish was making me feel at ease. They have a wonderful business here and deserve the highest accolades. Thank you Doris and Catarina.

Cons: The only fault was the bed. The mattress was uncomfortable.

Pros: We couldn't have picked a better hotel in Valparaiso. Our host Doris was lovely and very helpful in informing us about the highlights of the town. Breakfast was excellent. We really enjoyed our stay at the Grand House.

Pros: The view out the window over Valparaiso & the sea was fantastic.

Cons: A bit difficult to get to.

Pros: Cozy bed, great panoramic views of the city. The balcony was very nice on the second floor bedroom, and the owner and staff was very friendly and helpful. I”ll come back soon.

Cons: The room was very clean and nice, I only recommend to mantain the window glasses as clean and transparent as possible, because one of the many positive things about this place, is the view from The bedrooms, so it’s an important matter.

Pros: all staff were extremely helpful and friendly

Cons: I liked it all. If you don't like neighborhood noise and beautiful old buildings with all of their creaky wood floors, you should not stay here. (you should stay here!)

Pros: Staff was very friendly and accommodating; called around for a laundry service for us. They had welcome drinks for us. Great breakfast with fried or scrambled eggs and buffet. INCREDIBLE view of Valparaíso from our room. Many nearby tours and great restaurants.

Pros: The historic style of the hotel was great. We got an upgrade for free to a fabulous room with a great view over the town. The young man at the reception did a super job: very friendly, very polite and helpful. Breakfast was outstanding!

Pros: Great staff, awesome view and a very comfortable stay. The breakfast is excellent, one of the best we have had.

Cons: Nothing, it is all good.

Pros: Everything! The staff, the room, the view, location, tje food!

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: This is a beautiful old house restored to a charming hotel. The location is perfect. The staff cannot do enough for you. And, something most people understand once they have arrived, it has parking. Parking is pretty much impossible in the area. The restaurant was good, and after wandering around the hills of Valpo, we were happy to dine at the hotel and not have to climb the hills after dinner. The rooms are comfortable, but not big, and the bathrooms are nice. The price is a high, but you are not paying just for the room, but the wonderful living room with stunning views, and the location. We loved it. The street art in the neighborhood is fantastic.

Cons: Only that they did not serve wine by the glass, only the half bottle. If this is my biggest complaint, it is not much.

Pros: The pool was amazing, also the breakfast with amazing views

Cons: I spected more about my room.

Cons: They serve you almost nothing being in the pool. In a hot day you want to stay at the pool, and no one goes to serve you there.

Pros: Extensive buffet; able to eat inside or outside overlooking the city and harbor. Fabulous staff.

Cons: A bit hard to find by driving (but well worth it!)

Pros: Calm, beautiful areas to relax in from an indoor area with the most magnificent picture window to a roof top terrace and lovely pool

Pros: Helpful and friendly staff. Beautiful property.

Cons: Nothing, all good.

Pros: beautiful, charming, comfortable hotel with an extremely friendly and attentive staff.

Cons: The food service could be a bit more expansive - there wasn't much variety in room service or restaurant, and as many restaurants in the neighborhood were closed on the Sunday we were there, it would have been nice to have more options inside the hotel for a casual meal or snack.

Pros: Loved the place, the location is outstanding, walking distances from main attractions, really handpicked.

Pros: Our room had excellent view of the port and main square as well as surrounding hillsides. The food was excellent and service very efficient and pleasant.

Cons: Room service delivered tray of food but it was not removed afterwards. Chambermaids always left the balcony door open - not great security! The WC was the oddest design. The cistern tended to keep flushing but the bowl did not empty - we had to ask for a plunger.

Pros: Very nice interior. Not a far walk to the touristic centre.

Cons: /

Pros: Nice rooms with everything necessary, excellent restaurant

Cons: Pillow too big, bed sinked in the middle

Pros: Great,large rooms that were very clean and comfortable. Friendly staff that helped with transport and recommendations.

Cons: It’s a little far away from the main area of Valparaíso but it’s near the bus station and heaps of transport to get you there.

Pros: I stayed at LaJoya berfore for 10 days, the location, the staff and the room are really amazing!

Pros: Good option for a one night stay right after a bus trip. The room was clean and nite, staff is very helpful, quality breakfast included.

Cons: The room was very stuffy, very bad air circulation

Pros: Staff was awesome. There was hot water, a stocked kitchen, good wifi, good shared space, a bar, and a restaurant. I could have lived there.

Pros: Considering the price, they do an excellent job. The location is very practical (next to the harbor and thus close to good transpo). The front-desk guys are friendly and helpful, particularly Felipe, who speaks English like a native. We had a private double room, which was a bit spartan but spotless and thoughtfully designed. The beds are situated in an upper alcove. If you need to get to the bathroom at 2 in the morning, descending the steps could be challenging. But tucking the beds upstairs makes the accommodation a lot more spacious. We also appreciated the nautical theme evident throughout the hostel and adjoining restaurant. Fastest internet we’ve ever seen, and a decent breakfast.

Cons: My only suggestion would be to add a chair in the room. (It had only one chair and one beanbag).

Pros: Breakfast was fairly good (included delicious scrambled eggs). I also ate at the restaurant one evening it was probably the best burger I've had in Chile. Joint co-working space is super convenient! Enjoyed the roof common space and in the single room the bed was super comfy.

Cons: Coffee at breakfast is poor and the location is close to the bus stop and Jumbo but not too much else.

Pros: The service was great! nice place and location.

Pros: Had a bar and restaurant on site. Price included breakfast too.

Pros: The view was amazing!!

Cons: I liked everything

Pros: Accommodation for a good price in a great location

Cons: Unlike in pictures, we did not feel like in a boutique/design hotel, all was pretty standard, no problems or issues, but nothing we would particularly find cool. The room and the bathroom is quite small.

Pros: Really nice view.. clean and compfortable..

Pros: The view and food were excellent

Cons: Nothing everything was fine

Pros: Location,location harbour view from picture window , breakfast, pleasant staff. Good Wifi. On site restaurant

Cons: Stairs !

Pros: Great location, fantastic view, friendly staff and very good breakfast

Cons: Nothing

Pros: 1. Nice room with a nice sea view 2. Great breakfast 3. Very friendly stuff

Cons: Not much to add

Pros: The room had a good size and a beautiful view to the ocean, we also had a private balcony to enjoy the sun. Location was really good as the area was quiet and pretty, with different restaurants 5 min by walk. Staff was friendly. Breakfast was fresh and delicious.

Cons: The bathroom wasnt really private, but didn't bother us. Dnt take the rooms in the first floor as dsnt feel so private, but they still good for a night.

Pros: The staff were great. They were helpful and attentive. An old friend was in town so we grabbed a bottle of wine and headed downstairs. As soon as one of the staff saw the bottle he ran and grabbed a corkscrew and three wine glasses for us. We relaxed on the closed dining room and enjoyed the evening with no worries. Lots of fun stuff nearby as well.

Cons: Rooms are a bit cramped for two people and have to live out of suitcase. That's fine for a weekend but we were on a longer trip and passing through with larger bags. Not that big of a deal, though. Also requires getting lucky for a reserved parking space, which we did.

Pros: Great location, great views!

Pros: Contemporary industrial style hotel, excellent views over Valparaíso. Excellent breakfast, helpful, friendly young team. Great bars nearby.

Pros: Stylish hotel, great use of timber/wood. Helpful staff that also speaks English. Excellent location with a view, especially from the phantastic rooftop restaurant. Great breakfast.

Cons: Heating was set a bit low.

Pros: Breakfast was tasty and healthy; the room was clean and with a nice view. The shower was amazing.

Cons: It was a little bit chilly, but ok after a while.

Pros: Good dinner recommendations and helpful staff offering to make reservations. Great free breakfast at restaurant. Wonderful view from restaurant deck. Pretty basic but nice, comfortable rooms. Huge, fluffy towels!

Pros: Great very modern hotel with concrete walls and some original brickwork. Good sized room. Nice fresh breakfast with great views from dining area. Wonderful area with lots of cafes, bars, restaurants very close. Good vibe and great interior design.

Cons: Room was very cold, but asked to be moved and a heater was provided. We had workmen outside our window from 9 till 6 both days, which meant no privacy, or keeping the blinds down and thus a dark room. Be prepared for stairs as there are no lifts. We were 2 floors down from street level.

Pros: The location was fabulous although a little difficult to reach since there isn't car access. The transfer the hotel set up to/from the airport was fantastic and Christian helped with the luggage up the stairs to the property. The rooftop restaurant was exceptional and the food fantastic. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone. Very convenient at the top of the Reina Victoria funicular. Thank you for an awesome stay!

Cons: Our rooms were on the lowest level. There was a slight smell of fuel oil (maybe?). The stairs to the restaurant was a good workout!

Pros: Hotel Fauna is a very nice boutique hotel in the heart of tourist area of Valparaíso. It has very attentive staff who speak and write with excellent English. It has an excellent breakfast and restaurant which has an amazing view.

Cons: Older travellers may be concerned by lack of an elevator but it was not a concern for us.

Cons: Dont pick up 12 room

Pros: View and location unbeatable. Staff helpful and friendly. Restaurant excellent. Hotel a very neat and unusual design.

Pros: beautifully restored house. great breakfast.

Cons: Wonderful place. Staff super, especially Veronica

Pros: Once you are settled in, the hotel is located in a excellent area. Close to restaurants, shops and the main tourist routes. The room was very clean and the house in general very cute. Breakfast was ok... Nothing to rave about. No eggs

Cons: The lack of sound proofing between the room and outside, not to mention the reception area was very poor. You can hear everything. I had trouble sleeping because of the noise in the street. The hotel can be a little difficult to find if you don't know the number on the main Street. My taxi driver went round in circles for a while!

Pros: Excellent location, Veronica was very helpful, delicious breakfast, very clean.

Cons: Nothing really but the WIFI was very hit and miss

Pros: Great location in the heart of the city. The rooms are tastefully furnished. All personnel were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great, including fresh fruit and coffee from the machine.

Cons: The room had rather poor sound insulation. Bathroom and shower in this room were a bit small.

Pros: We had a nice little room. The staff was nice and helpful, the breakfast good. Great location in the heart of cerro Concepcion.

Cons: Because it is in the heart of cerro Concepcion, it can be a little noisy during the night, people partying or cars on cobblestone streets but nothing that earplugs won't solve !

Pros: The staff was really very nice and helpful

Cons: The location is a bit tricky to find

Pros: The breakfast is simple but fantastic.

Cons: the toilet

Pros: Warm welcome and openhearted staff. Great room. Great breakfastbuffet.

Pros: Really nice hostel! Especially the rooftop gives you an amazing view over Valparaiso. The staff is very helpfull.

Pros: Breakfast is unreal, so fresh so unique. The seaview is fantastic and the owners and staff get really good care of you. Place is super clean and I had such a good sleep. Can't wait to get back I'll miss this place and all of you so much. Thank you guys for giving me a lift the other day you guys always go the extra mile with everything xx

Pros: Great personel, very friendly. Room was tidy and big enough, clean bathroom and the view from the (shared) terrace was priceless. Breakfasts were very good.

Cons: Just small details, e.g. two drawers were not fully functioning. There was however still plenty of space in two other closets.

Pros: very clean and comfortable

Cons: far away from the center

Pros: Lovely clean room. Good breakfast

Pros: Very clean and comfortable

Cons: I booked a double room and I was given a twin room.

Pros: The highest floor is a viewing deck with a stunning view of the city. Various breakfast goods each day, including chocolate. The empanadas a block down the hill are tasty af

Pros: Good atmosphere. Nice postcard from Valparaiso.

Pros: Juanita and Annamaria did so many extras for us—she got us a plug in heater, eggs for breakfast, taxis, let us use her microwave/toaster/dishes for evening meals. We liked the comfortable bed, lots of space for we had the family room, hot hot showers, HBO channel in English, mini market and liquor store nearby, easy to walk downtown or take bus.

Cons: It was cold for the buildings don’t have heat. Juanita helped us with the electric heater. No restaurants in the area so had to go downtown for food or big grocery stores.

Cons: Pathetic breakfast. On our second day we decided to skip it altogether and paid to have breakfast at a cafe.

Pros: Staff were welcoming and helpful. The lobby was welcoming and comfortable. A keurig style espresso machine downstairs made mornings more special. If you need a beverage or a pick-me-up, there's a cooler downstairs where you can buy sodas, energy drinks, aloe juice, and still water.

Cons: Conversations, footsteps, other people's TVs, cell phones ringing... all of it entered our room as though our bed were in the center of the lobby with zero walls around us. On Saturday morning at 4:30, someone walked back and forth across our ceiling eleven times in five minutes, then down the stars and back and forth across the lobby. They continued up and down the stairs and across our ceiling till well after 7:30. Every footstep echoed in our room and kept us wide awake. Sleep was not possible with the level of noise that carried into our room. Additionally, one entire wall of our room is floor-to-ceiling windows that look out on the center courtyard and the interior hallways opposite our room. Ordinarily, this would be spectacular... except that the curtains that were meant to provide us privacy weren't big enough and only covered a portion of these enormous windows. With the curtains fully stretched as far as they would go, it was still possible for someone to stand to one side and have a full and unobstructed view of us in our room. Privacy was not possible unless the lights were off. This was rather frustrating.

Pros: Location, wood fired heater in reception.

Cons: The shower leaked through the floor boards and wet all of our clothes and electrical items. The staff moved us to another room but didn't follow up with us the next day.

Pros: Beautiful, charmingly made over traditional building with cute decor. Fantastic location near restaurants and major attractions. Really helpful and friendly staff. Breakfast is mostly continental but they could real eggs to order as well and make fresh coffee or tea too!

Cons: Our room had a bit of a strange layout with a second level up some steep steps but this is inherent to such a beautiful old building and part of the charm as well. Hot water takes a while in the shower but they warn you adequately - you just need to let it run for about 1 minute turned to maximum flow and at maximum heat before the hot water comes.

Pros: All you need is a clean room with a comfortable bed and good hot water (it was hot but took a long time to come through) - Hotel Da Vinci ticked all these boxes. Staff were very friendly & helpful, even with the language differences.

Cons: I chose the single room over two storeys, and the headroom was not good for a tall person like me. This was my choice, not a criticism of the hotel. In hindsight I should have paid more for a room with full headroom.

Pros: The owner was really helpful and let us check in early. He showed us where to go and where not to go. Even helped organise a rental car with a local company when none of the websites would allow us to book one online. The location was great because its situated not far from everything. It's a easy walk to the main bars, close to banks and there are restaurants just up the hill on the same street. You have to get use to the plumbing in the showers as you have to run the water for quite a while before it gets hot but there are signs in the bathroom telling you what to do. The only issue was the curtains on the first floor bedroom did not fully cover the whole of the window facing the outside. However, we enjoyed it so much that we returned the following week on the way back to Santiago and got a room on the ground floor which had one of the most comfortable beds we had slept in during our trip.

Pros: Staff was outstanding. Location right in the heart of the arts scene. Wonderful food close by. Real find.

Cons: Inside room was musty and so they moved us to a better one.

Pros: I loved the coffee and the kindness of the owner and his staff. It was 4 min walk from my work, very convenient location.

Cons: The first room I had was a bit too small. They moved me to a larger room.

Pros: Location was great.

Cons: No AC

Pros: Friendly staff

Cons: All great

Pros: Location

Cons: Room was small
