Hostal Rio Amazonas

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.

Definitely a top pick if you're visiting Santiago.

The location is unbeatable—right next to restaurants, grocery stores, and a pharmacy, all within walking distance. You can easily enjoy meals or grab essentials without needing to travel far. Everything you need is just steps away. This place offers incredible value and convenience, and Andrés’ attention to detail made our visit truly memorable.

Ventana Sur Hostal

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.
