World renowned wine regions, mountainous landscapes for adventure activities and the eclectic UNESCO coastal city of Valparaíso are all within a short drive of Santiago. A stay in Chile’s capital should be incorporated into any Patagonian adventure.

What our customers think of Santiago Hotels
We would recommend staying at the Hotel Cumbres in Santiago because it is in the 'Bohemian' district of Santiago, with great places to eat, visit and people watch.
