Neruda Hotel, Santiago

I loved this place. I had lived in chile for a while and knew the area well, so when my sister vacationed there I wanted to find the best place. It is right off a major metro stop and on the corner of two big strees (11 de septiembre and Perdo de Valdivia). There are buses and taxis at all hours because of its amazing location. The nightlife is great with restaurants, pubs, and nightclubs all within walking distance. But if you want to do some sightseeing downtown, you are a ten minute drive away(or better yet a metro ride). Also this area is really safe. So when my sister got back and told me how great the hotel was, I booked it for myself on my next trip. It did not disappoint. I had a large room, great view of providencia, and a beautiful bathroom. Breakfast was incredible. They will serve you your hot beverage and you have a great selection of breads jams, cereals fruits...but my favorite was the juice section. Atleast 5 different fresh exotic juices. Delicious. the staff was also very attentive offering all kinds of services including the spa next door. overall it was a great experience especially since I got an incredible deal of $60 a night.
