Find Hotels in Santiago, Chile

This hotel is an excellent choice for stop-over hotel; It is not until you stay at other Chile and Peru hotels that you realise the Diego De Almagro offers great accommodation with much more space and features than higher star hotels offer. Staff at reception, restaurant & bar are all very nice and helpful. Everything seems possible and nothing is too much trouble. Around the corner from reception there are 3 computers with printers connected for free printing - I used it to print out flight tickets and boarding passes. Restaurant is real homely and buffet breakfast was good; if you are lucky you may even get a fresh capuchino if the machine is switched on :) As we had a midnight flight departure I used the garden loungers in large lawns area near lovely pools to soak up the sun and peaceful atmosphere for quite a few hours.

This is a wonderful small hotel in a quiet, up-scale neighborhood. It's beautifully designed, modern and artistic. Even though it's in a quiet neighborhood, it's just steps away from the junction of two main subway lines and a luxurious shopping mall. There are many restaurants close by, in all price ranges. The small staff were very helpful. The hotel is new and not yet well known, so it wasn't very busy. But I'm sure it'll get known through word-of-mouth. I would stay there again in a heart-beat.

We arrived at the hotel by taxi transfer from the airport about 15 minutes away for US$ 30 . Downtown Santiago is 10 minutes away. The Mall Parque Arauco is only a 5 minute walk and offers fantastic shopping and cafe/restaurants. There is a subway station at also about 5 minutes walk from the Hotel. There was a nice greeting by the friendly reception staff. we were pleasantly surprised by the room, it was clean but needs a new carpet by now. Everything in the room worked OK and there was a great array of tv-channels available. A complimentary drink was enjoyed in the hotel bar and a nice breakfast, included in the room rate, the service was wonderful in both. At night the restaurant is a romantic setting especially in the atrium part. Would stay here again & recommend this hotel.

i checked-in quite late and was left with a room on the eastern section of the hotel. i requested for a transfer and the staff are courteous to arrange for me another but on the following day and this is understandable. the next day i was not automatically transferred but waited for me and gave me option to see first the rooms available if it meets my expectation and finally i decided and they were very helpful in transferring my luggages. the room service is just right and the rooms are clean. the staffs were also helpful to store my luggages in the store rooms since my flight was still in the evening and courteously arranged for my cab to the airport. it seems they are are really happy to assist their guests. i would recommend others to try and experience the hotel galerias experience. it just seem odd to me where the swimming pool is placed and cannot be use since there are surrounding restaurant tables around the area which would discourage you to be the object of attraction of the restaurant guests. maybe the hotel administration can do something about this so that those who intend to try the pool and swim can use this facility.

The staff was lovely, just didn't speak much English. But they fixed at the desk my mistake of booking a room with one bed (instead of two) by upgrading us to a suite FOC. Fun ambience sigh Chinese antiques but really in the middle of no where and the checkout for some reason took 40 minutes - between that length and my time zone error we missed our flight. But the staff was so nice.

Relatively cheap for Santiago, however, I wish the staff can be more helpful in terms of suggesting places to go. I asked for a restaurant suggestion, and he sent me to a local mall with limited food selection. However, at mid-night, the gentleman for the grave year shift did help me to secure a hired car to drive us to Varaipaiso. Thanks for his help. I am glad that I could not sleep and talked to this guy at wee hours in the morning.

As Vitacura is a long way west of the airport the Taxi fares were the bigest single incidental expense of my stay \. The hotel itself was as expected of a 3-4 star hotel.Hotel Reception responded well to my queries but I had to specifically ask for information was I enjoyed an adequate buffet breakfast each morning. The pool was somewhat small but I managed to swim around gold-fish style to at least have a refreshing dip and need a towel which I got when I stopped off at the ground floor to request one (none were available in the pool area or nearby gym).

I stayed overnight during travel brazil and as a first-timer to santiago the hotel was easy to locate for the taxi drivers and perfectly positioned in the CBD for an afternoon of exploring the city, eating and resting. Would highly recommend this hotel to international travelers of all backgrounds - however i did need my Portuguese over my English for better communication with the Chileans..

Everything was organised for our check-in even though we arrived late. The chap on the desk had our keys ready for us. The apartments are next door to a large supermarket which is very useful. Our apartment had a hob and oven but no cooking pots to use in the oven. The office staff who look after our apartment were all very friendly with good English and eager to help. We had hoped to have an apartment on a high floor but we were on the fourth floor so no real view. Excellent views from the 18th floor viewpoint. Close to the Plaza de Armas, Cathedral and a good bar "The Clinic"! It was good value for money and we would certainly consider it again if we had to spend time in Santiago.

well appointed and nicely decorated . beds fantastic ( maybe because we really tired after a long flight ) .. now for the negative , the apartment is very difficult to find , it must of taken us 15 min to hunt it down ... the management needs training , they rude arrogant rrrrrr , it was a let down ... breakfast included my arse it was a plate delivered the night before to your room with bread and spreads , it was a real disappointment considering the good quality of the rooms .. will i stay there again , mmm yep probably will .

Chile is expensive for tourists. I can't believe what I had to pay for this accommodation but it's the price you have to pay for being a tourist here. The staff was very helpful giving directions to the tourist areas. Chile is also known for it's high robbery and theft rate. Be careful here. The staff did offer some assistance after I was robbed at Santa Lucia. They gave me the address of the main police station and assured me that the hotel area was safe.

It wasn't until we actually stayed at the Luciano K that we appreciated how well situated it was for the activities we enjoyed in Santiago. It was conveniently located near one of the the Turistik Hop on-Hop off bus offices/stations, which worked for us because we had limited time. It is also near a wonderful artsy bohemian-like neighborhood with artisanal crafts, music and general festivity, as well as a number of excellent restaurants. We could walk to most attractions (museums, Mistral center, etc.) of interest to us. At the Luciano, the room we had was rather small and had no view; but it was contemporary, well-designed and comfortable. The staff was wonderful, gracious and helpful at every turn. The buffet breakfast was fresh and tasty, and the room afforded a view of the park and sculptures across the street. All together, staying here made Santiago a pleasant visit, and we ended up wishing we had more time to spend in this interesting city.

Standard of staff was uneven, check-in staff was lovely but cleaning staff would sometimes leave rubbish from other rooms in my room after cleaning e.g. tissue box lid on the floor, opened and half finished tube of shampoo beside my sink ( I did not use the shampoo provided by the hotel as my hair reacts badly if I don’t use my usual brand so I know that tube was not from my room). Did not feel safe as the lock did not work and there was no door chain or bar. Staff sometimes opened the door after knocking once and without waiting for a response even when do not disturb light was on. A repairman tried to enter my female colleague’s room at 11pm and when she complained the hotel said it was part of normal “turndown” procedures. It is otherwise a fairly nice hotel with a supermarket across the street and eateries nearby but if you stay there make sure the safe in your room works and maybe barricade the door with furniture or luggage before going to bed.
