Die Lage des Hotels ist ganz in der Nähe der Kathedrale und damit optimal für alle Aktivitäten in Santiago. Sehr leckeres Frühstück und ein sehr aufmerksames Personal im Hotel.

Location and hospitality; what more could one ask for?
Pros:

Loved everything about the property! Location is amazing, just steps from the Cathedral. The hotel is so quaint and our room was large with a sitting area and beautiful balcony with blooming flowers overlooking Rua Vilar. While you feel like you step back in time, the amenities are modern. Our flight left early so we couldn’t make breakfast but the staff prepared coffee and pastries for us before we left.

Cons:

Nothing.
