Small Boutique hotels in SANTIAGO DE CHILE

The skyline of the capital of Chile confirms its cosmopolitan character. The financial district of Sanhattan reaffirms us that we are in a great metropolis. Here are the tallest skyscrapers in South America, such as the Sky Costanera wih its 360º panoramic view at a height of 300 m.

But it is in the heart of its neighborhoods that we see its lively diversity. In the historic center, the Plaza de Armas is an excellent starting point for strolling. They say the Bellavista neighborhood, with a bohemian reputation, never sleeps. Theatrical life is added to the intense night life. The poet Pablo Neruda lived here in La Chascona, today a house museum that can be visited.

The varied Chilean cultural wealth is evidenced in museums such as the Visual Arts and Archeology museums, with collections of Diaguita ceramics and Mapuche jewelry. The Central Market is ideal to discover the delicious Chilean gastronomy. For shopping, visit the elegant Alfonso de Córdoba neighborhood.

If you go up the hills near the city, the surrounding nature offers new perspectives. Embraced by the Andes mountain range, in less than an hour you can enjoy splendid ski slopes. Also very close to Santiago is the Maipo Valley, covered with vineyards, where you can taste some of the wines that have made Chilean wines famous.
