Quito

Hotel Quito is a 5 min walk from downtown Santiago. The atmosphere is a small family run place, breakfast is a bit basic. Rooms are average to small, some with shared bathrooms. Reception is very friendly and some English is spoken. Relaxed place for a few nights for smaller budgets.

The hotel is very well located if you want to stay in downtown Santiago , everything is in walking distance . The staff is very friendly and helpful . The rooms are old and small , and the bathroom is even older and smaller . The breakfast is VERY basic, but that seems to be typical for hotels in Chile . My room had a glass door and it did not get really dark at night. Good wifi everywhere in the hotel. Not a bad option if you want to stay in the Centro and you don't want to spend a fortune.

There have been some attempts to renovate this old building but it was better than I expected from the photos. The lobby was spacious and open with lovely flower arrangements and a view over the mountains. There was a pool with average food service and a busy well-equipped small gym. The breakfast spread was very good although the free wifi kept dropping out. We stayed in room 557 on our first visit and then room 204. Both had two double beds and a small balcony; no bar fridge and the latter had a slightly more modern bathroom. Unfortunately street noises stopped us from going to sleep on Saturday night and then drilling or pipe noises woke us at 6am. If you want to see the city however I'd recommend that you stay in the old town as there is not much near hear except for a few restaurants across the road.
