The bathroom was bigger than any hostel I have been in and extremely clean and well equipped. The room was big, comfortable and well equipped. Kitchen has everything you might need during your stay. I was also allowed to check in early and have a late checkout which helped tremendously as I arrived very early in the city. Staff was extremely friendly and willing to help with anything, including giving some tips on transportation and where to eat. Would definitely stay there again if I return to the city!

Boasting a garden, terrace, shared lounge and free WiFi, Hostal Boutique Casa La Barca is located in Santiago, 3.9 km from Costanera Center. Well set in the Providencia district, this hostel is set 5 km from Caupolican Theatre. The property is 5 km from Santiago Cable Car.

Correct the mistakes if you find them: Located in a quiet safe area, 5 min. away from bustamante metro station. My rom was small, but it had a comfortable bed, which was the most important for me. The cosy house has a breakfast area at the ground floor and a kitchen upstairs. It has also two terraces where you can enjoy breakfast. The breakfast made by Ivelisse, is the best breakfast ever, made with love and served with care. Ivelisse is super kind, positive and helpful person wherever it is about metro card or about a title of the song heard on the street. If she didn’t know something, there was Pamela, the host, who knew everything😀. Both of them are very kind and warm people. I would definitely recomend this place both for single travelers and for couples. (Sorry, I forgot to take out yogurt from the fridge).

This place is amazing, especially for solo travelers. It's set up in a way that makes it really easy to hang out in the central garden space, and everyone just chats and goes out together. The pool's also great for a hot day. The location is AMAZING. I love the Italiano neighborhood. It's super safe to walk around at night. The breakfast is huge and filling. I liked it so much I came back.

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The team of Pariwana Hostel is really kind and caring. I stayed in a 12 person dorm and it was still super comfortable. Good mattress and a big locker for your stuff. The bathrooms are extraordinary. Super modern and always clean. The location in Bellavista is perfect for any activities or just for grabbing some food in the street. Considering the cheap price this hostel is really one of the best in Santiago!

    This hostel is just amazing! Extremely clean, with toilette and shower inside the room, very comfortable beds and nice staff! Probably the best hostel in town (I have tried a few). The area around is also nice with many restaurants, quite local, but still walking distance from the city center. It felt safe and it is a 10 min walking distance from the bus stop to get to the airport (in 30 mins). Highly reccomended!

    The staff were very friendly and the hostel is in a relatively safe area of town. There’s an amazing vegan burger and milkshake place nearby, Vurger Joint, that we ate at a few times, which was a nice perk. The beds were super soft and comfortable. There was free coffee and tea. The value for money was good. It was really close to the metro, which is really safe and cheap, which was convenient and a big plus.
