Check-in was quick and smooth, with friendly staff making the process hassle-free. The room was surprisingly spacious—plenty of room to move around, and everything felt well-organized and clean. Location is fantastic; it's just a short walk to public transit, so getting around Santiago is super easy. I loved how close I was to restaurants, cafes, and local attractions. This place offers incredible value for the price, and I’d definitely stay here again if I’m back in Santiago.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel! The standard room was clean and comfortable, and the location is perfect—right in the heart of Santiago without being in the historic district, which means it's quiet yet still super accessible. I loved how easy it was to walk to different parts of the city—shops, restaurants, and attractions were all within a short stroll. The staff went above and beyond with their friendly and welcoming service. From check-in to checkout, everything felt personal and thoughtful. This place offers great value for money and is ideal for travelers who want convenience without the noise of downtown chaos. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Santiago!

This hostel truly exceeded my expectations. Located just steps away from the Argentine Embassy and within easy walking distance of the metro, getting around Santiago was incredibly convenient. I booked the smallest private room—definitely not a shared dorm—and it was surprisingly comfortable with a window, great natural light, and a peaceful atmosphere. The breakfast wasn’t self-service but served as a set menu, and it was delicious and satisfying. What really stood out was the front desk staff. During my trip, I accidentally got something in my eye, and by Friday evening, the university hospital’s ophthalmology department had closed. Emergency services wouldn’t take me either. On Saturday morning, I asked if they could help me find a doctor—most websites were in Spanish, which made things tough. Without hesitation, the staff went online, called multiple clinics, and finally managed to connect me with a private eye clinic (similar to an 'Eye Hospital' in Hong Kong). They helped me get seen promptly and resolved the issue. Their kindness and dedication made a huge difference during a stressful moment. This place isn’t just about location or rooms—it’s about genuine care. Highly recommend for any traveler visiting Santiago, especially those who value helpful service and a welcoming vibe.

The hotel is perfectly located—just a short walk from the city center and within easy reach of public transit. I loved how convenient it was to explore Santiago without having to travel far. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with a cozy bed that made for a great night's sleep. The air conditioning worked flawlessly, which was a big plus during the warmer days. Staff were friendly and efficient throughout my stay. From the moment I arrived, everything felt smooth and welcoming. It’s rare to find such a great value in a central location, and I’d definitely stay here again. Highly recommend this gem!

Staying at Hostal Americano was a solid choice for a short visit to Santiago. Located in the Barrio Brasil neighborhood—mid-tier and peaceful—it’s just a 20-minute walk to the city center, making it easy to explore downtown without relying on transport. The area feels safe and local, with plenty of cafes and small shops nearby. The hotel itself is clean and well-maintained, offering basic but comfortable accommodations. I appreciated the quiet atmosphere and how close everything was—perfect for travelers who want to be central without overspending. It’s not luxury, but for the price, it delivers great value. I’d definitely stay here again if I’m back in Santiago.

Staying at Hostal Boutique Casa la Barca was an absolute delight. The location is perfect for exploring Santiago—walking distance to great cafes, shops, and public transit makes getting around a breeze. The place is immaculately clean, with cozy, comfortable beds that made for a restful night’s sleep. The breakfast was a standout: abundant, fresh, and varied—there was something for everyone. The staff went above and beyond with their warm hospitality, making us feel right at home. Every detail felt thoughtfully curated. I’d highly recommend this gem to anyone visiting Santiago. We’ll definitely be back—this is exactly the kind of stay you want when you’re looking to experience the city like a local.

I arrived at 2:00 PM and even though I had mentioned in advance that I'd be checking in late, no one answered the door or offered any assistance. It was frustrating to show up and have no staff available to greet me or help with check-in. The location is decent—close to public transit and downtown—but the lack of basic hospitality really let down the experience. For the price, you’d expect a little more professionalism, especially when guests are arriving after hours. Definitely not something I’d recommend.

Tucked away on a quiet street in a charming part of Santiago, Ventana Sur Hostal is an absolute gem. Ivan and Lex, the hosts, go above and beyond—offering local tips, a welcoming glass of wine, and even a slice of homemade pizza. The pool is perfect for summer days, and the shaded terrace is ideal for relaxing with a book or chatting with fellow travelers. The common areas are warm and inviting, making it easy to connect with people from around the world. Breakfast is included every morning and is deliciously simple. We stayed in a private room by the pool—quiet, comfortable, and beautifully kept. It’s no surprise that many guests, including ourselves, are already planning a return visit. In fact, several travelers we met had come back multiple times. If every stay in South America could be this enjoyable, we’d be thrilled. This place truly feels like home.

The Hotel Angamos delivered an excellent stay overall, with only one minor downside: the breakfast coffee was quite basic and served at 8 a.m. — though I was already aware of this before booking, so it wasn’t a surprise. In Chile, simple breakfasts are standard, so claims you sometimes see online that ‘Chileans consider breakfast the most important meal’ aren’t really accurate. Most companies pick up guests between 5:30 and 7 a.m., which means you’ll likely miss out on a proper morning meal if you’re not prepared. This is actually a common complaint among Brazilian travelers across nearly all Chilean hotel chains. A small improvement would go a long way — adding a fresh juice, a slice of cake, or a piece of fruit to breakfast, plus offering a basic bathroom kit (shampoo, soap) could definitely set this hotel apart from competitors. That said, the location is convenient, the staff friendly, and the value for money is strong. Definitely worth staying if you're visiting Santiago.

I stayed in a private room, which was decent and comfortable overall. One thing to note is the lighting—since the window faces a pizzeria and there’s no blackout curtain, it might be disruptive for light-sensitive sleepers. I was initially worried about noise, especially since free earplugs are available at reception, but surprisingly, I wasn’t bothered at all—probably due to exhaustion. The bathroom raised some concerns: I nearly slipped twice because the so-called “bathtub” has no handrails or support at all. Also, the shower water suddenly turned cold more than once during my stay, which startled me and made me lose balance. That said, the street the hostel is on is fantastic—full of great restaurants and a lively vibe. Breakfast is included, though I didn’t have it. The shared kitchen is a nice touch for travelers who want to cook their own meals. Other rooms and bathrooms are basic but clean and well-maintained. It’s definitely not luxury, but for the price, it’s a solid option if you’re looking for a budget-friendly base in Santiago.

Hotel Sahara Inn is an excellent choice for travelers looking to explore Santiago with ease. Located just a short distance from the airport, it’s incredibly convenient for early check-ins or late-night arrivals. The central location makes getting around the city a breeze—public transit is just steps away, and major tours frequently pick up right at the hotel, saving time and hassle. I’ve stayed here multiple times, and each visit has been comfortable and stress-free. The staff are friendly, the rooms are clean and well-maintained, and the overall value is outstanding. If you’re planning a trip to Santiago, this hotel is a top-tier option that truly delivers on comfort and convenience.

The check-in experience was underwhelming, and we were required to pay upfront upon arrival, which felt a bit inconvenient. To our disappointment, there was no free Wi-Fi available throughout the property, and breakfast wasn’t included either—something that wasn’t clearly mentioned in the listing. We booked three rooms on the third floor, but the overall atmosphere felt lackluster and far from welcoming. What stood out the most was the misleading advertising—promising Wi-Fi access when it simply wasn’t there. It made us feel misled, especially since this is a basic expectation for any modern hotel stay. While the rooms were clean and functional, the lack of essential amenities and poor guest service brought down the overall experience. For travelers looking for comfort, convenience, and transparency, this hotel falls short. I wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re on a very tight budget and just need a place to sleep.
