Very nice hotel in one of the best neighborhoods of Santiago. Claudia and Carolina are friendly hosts and made me feel q
In a very good neighborhood of Santiago…close to many nice restaurants. Kind and welcoming hosts.
I had one of the economy single rooms and the shower was very difficult to clean yourself - due to the very small size. Also, the noise from the road can be heard most of the night in these rooms. The next time I will spend a little more and book a superior single room for the advice of the hotel.

Very good
We loved the location, staff support, breakfast, and lounge spaces around the hostal and really enjoyed our experience overall.
We hit Santiago during a pretty hot spell and without fans or AC the room stayed really hot all night. Street noise was also really loud, so I highly recommend ear plugs and eye mask if you're a sensitive sleeper.

I really loved this place and I stayed 3 times during my monthly LATAM trip. Is close to metro and to funicular. And is close to different nice restaurants and to the river. The staff is super helpful and kind. And my lovely dog Ginny that you can often find sleeping under the table. It takes 20 minutes to go by taxi to the airport
The only one minus for me was that building is probably old and that why you can see every step of your neighbor.

Great choice for a Santiago city trip
Very cute and cosy place in a good location. We were in the private double room which was spacious and comfy. The style is charming (feels a bit old / not modern, but in a good way - it has character). It’s in a safe neighborhood within easy walking distance of some of the main sights and areas with restaurants. I really liked the colorful decorations and the staff was always friendly and helpful. We did not try the breakfast or other meals that are served but enjoyed a drink in the little courtyard. The reception staff can help you with all kinds of services like taxis, laundry, tours.
Toiletries are only provided in the form of solid pieces of soap; would have appreciated some shower gel and shampoo.

Love its cosy and homely atmosphere
Great value for money. Excellent location: metro, money exchange, pharmacy, bars and supermarket are all within short walking distance. The dining area of BarraVista is 10-min walk. Very convenient to go to the bus terminals. The Hostal itself is a historical building with a lovely courtyard and a bar area where you can hang out with other travelers. All staff are friendly and welcoming. It has an atmosphere of feeling relaxed and at home in a country far from home. I highly recommend it!
I stayed in both single economic and single superior room. If budget permits, try the single superior, quieter and cooler with a large space.

Good experience this time
This was our second stay and a much nicer room, more spacious and decent beds, and the room was cooler.
Would be even better with a/c 😀
