Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience for me. The room I had was very lovely and exceptionally clean, offering a comfortable stay. However, the room size was a bit small and could use some updating. The location was surprisingly great, being close to O'Higgins street and within walking distance of various attractions and restaurants. The service was top-notch, with receptionists being extremely friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The dining options were nice, and I particularly enjoyed the bar service in the evening. One downside was the noise from the pedestrian street at night, which could be disturbing. The facilities were well-maintained, providing a pleasant overall experience.
The hotel offers very spacious and comfortable rooms that are always clean. However, noise from the street with young partygoers can be disruptive at night. The service is top-notch, especially in helping with specific needs like obtaining a SIM card. It boasts a central location despite some noise concerns. The dining options are decent, with good seasonal fruit but limited choices. Additional facilities may require some upgrades.
I had a comfortable stay at the hotel despite some minor inconveniences. The rooms were spacious and had an extremely comfortable king-size bed, sofa, fridge, and tea-making facilities, but the connection through a door to another room was kind of inconvenient. The hotel looked nice; however, there were some issues above eye level.
The hotel is well-located, near the metro station and close to key attractions. The rooms are spacious and spotlessly clean, although some food was left uncovered in a common area. The service is exceptional, with staff always ready to assist. The dining options are varied and satisfying, offering a good selection. However, there were minor issues with the temperature of some food items left out in the open.
The hotel's location is terrific, close to the metro station and main street. The rooms were rather old and not very spacious due to having 3 beds, but they were huge. The service was friendly and honest about the city's safety. The dining experience offered plenty of delicious options. The hotel is on a pedestrian street, which can be noisy due to gatherings at night.
