Very good

Friendly, accommodating staff. Not the greatest internet, so be aware of that. Excellent location, good value. Decor varies by room in terms of its, um, modernity. A *very* good choice for short stays!

The hotel is a bit outdated. Felt like they had the same carpet, sofa, bed etc since the 1940’s. The check in staff and bar staff were great and super friendly. The breakfast was ok-ish but best to buy it outside. It felt clean (as clean as it could be given the state of everything). In an emergency it will fine.
Only one thing wrong, the WiFi was terrible. Rooms were unique, beds good, toilet seats were for a round toilet and our toilet was elongated and they are too low. Other than that, it was great and in the bar area, there was a piano player and everyone were singing. Good times.

Excellent location
the hotel's old
The staff are excellent
Bar attached to the hotel is a wonderful bar. We use it every night
My one complaint is that the mattress is very old and worn out. And we talk to the hotel staff and my only choice was to move to another room.
The mattress would be the same, so it wasn't worth moving
The staff were gonna move us if we wanted

The property was located in a quiet area but very walkable to the main attractions and plenty of restaurants nearby, only note that on Sundays the road in front of the hotel is closed for bikers so a 30sec walk to the corner to get a ride. The look of the room looks old and dirty, as well as the towels, but I feel that it's more old than actually dirty. Maybe a good bleaching of the towels will do and brighter lights will help. The staff is superbly helpful and friendly. The breakfast provided is very sufficient although the quality of coffee can be improved.
Hotel was a pleasant transition to cruise ship. Clean, convenient to city center. Staff extremely helpful. Breakfast included. Hotel is old but well maintained. Elevator works fine. Internet in room acceptable once one learns which server is closer to which room. Real gem: a piano bar in restaurant at night most enjoyable in a small setting.
Clean and safe with some old world charm in a great neighborhood

Forests is a small hotel with interesting old fashioned decoration. Location is unbeatable to visit downtown Santiago and it’s main attraction. Great location also for restaurants and night life. Room is very spacious. The bed is small and has a bizarre shape (gets higher st the place for feet). The big con is the noise when the room faces the street. They would do much better with additional isolation windows and blackout curtains. Staff is kind and very helpful. We didn’t try breakfast. Place is clean and on the oldish end.
It is an old , small fashion hotel, in a quaint street facing Cerro Sta Lucia that is green and beautiful. It has an animatrd bar don Rodrigo with good music, very animated and good food. Close by is Barrio Lastarria with excellent dining offers and street shopping.
The room was simple, but very clean and comfortable. The area where this hotel is located is absolutely wonderful and perfect for a first time visitor like me : everything is accessible by foot and the neighbourhood has wonderful bohemian-chic vibes with great restaurants and parks! The staff is wonderful and friendly and the prices for the rooms are most excellent. The 2 restaurants in the hotel are excellent and convenient. I highly recommend.
