Started with me showing up, saying I'm here for check-in, and the guy at the front desk responding "no check-in". I actually thought maybe I was in the wrong lobby and not even the hotel. After showing the reservation he insisted they had no open rooms and basically to go away. Eventually after arguing he called someone and they figured it out.
As for the rest...meh...according to Expedia there is a gym...there isn't. The internet was spotty at best. The room itself if you're looking for simple well then it was ok. Nothing impressive and for the price you can find much better in the area.

My impressions of a well-located favorite.
Good and friendly hotel for my visiting needs. LaFayett Suites is at the heart of ecctical Nueva Providencia a.k.a. Avda. 11 de Seotiembre, hub of major shopping centers, business & entertainment. Its staff is always friendly but room cleanliness is so-so. For folks accustomed to quite nights, this location is less than favorable.
Although the hotel was in a good location in the middle of Providencia, Santiago with a great breakfast option, it was dated. Also, cleanliness was not the hotels strong suit, and my kitchen was particularly dirty with old french fries in the fridge and sink.

Hotel in Providencia neighborhood
Location was fantastic, close to two Metro stations and numerous places to eat and shop, including department stores and supermarkets.
I booked 8 rooms and everyone was pleased. It would have helped if there was someone that spoke English at the front desk. We did use hand language though. The breakfast was very good and they had a nice seating area on the seond floor that we were able to meet at.
AN ABSOLUTE DUMP! RUDE STAFF! PICK ANYWHERE ELSE! I TRAVEL TO SOUTH AMERICA EVERY 4 months and this is the least enjoyable hotel that I have ever witnessed!

Horrible expirience! Severly aging...no English!
Wow, where to begin! The day I was leaving I was in a hurry to the airport and trying to drop my key off and I was held hostage by the guy at the front desk. I paid in full prior to the trip and he pulls out a bill for nearly the same amount. I provide the bill and said I paid which the prinout proved, but he insisted that I couldñt leave and I only paid a downpayment! What a joke! I said call the police. This was just the tip of the iceberg. NO ENGLISH IN THE HOTEL! If you are a tourist and dont know the city dont stay here! Room had furnishings from the 70s not to mention decaying floorboards and walls.

La Fayette Suites - Santiago
The hotel is conveniently located, it is a hotel with 4 small apartments per floor consisting of a very small bathroom, a tight bedroom and a small open room with kitchenette, small table, small couch. The price is right for what it delivers. Clean.
It had a small LR and a small bedroom. Needs a full size mirror. The staff was wonderful and the breakfast the best ever. Wld absolutely stay again.

Great Location
Hotel Lafayette is right in the heart of Providencia. Couldn't ask for a better location. Tons of restaurants and shopping. The famous Liguria Bar/Restaurant is just up the street.
Close to subway for heading downtown and plenty of cabs on the street.
The rooms show some wear and are very small. There is a lobby, but it's tiny. Breakfast area was clean and the breakfast was fine.
Hotel Lafayette is nothing fancey, but for the price it's in a great location.
My girlfriend and I loved this hotel. We stayed here for 9 of our 11 nights in Chile, coming back to the city for the last 5 nights of our stay and booking back into this hotel because we enjoyed it so much.
It is a no-frills suite with slightly hard beds, but we'd come back here immediately. It is nice to have a second room with kitchenette for an extended stay, the light and views are terrific, the staff is very helpful and the location is unbeatable.

If you can choose a non-smoking room, hotel should keep specific rooms for non-smokers
Cons: we asked for a non-smoking room, but all rooms smelled smoke
wi-fi internet non-stable
only 15 minutes of hot water (after that you should wait 45 minutes)
supert-tight bathroom
access to parking was tight and needed the only person at recepetion to open
food running out at the last 30 minutes of breakfast, be quick!
Pros: convenient location
nice view at back rooms
The staff couild not have been more helpful. The location was terrific, not far from the highway & in a great neighborhood. It was a very safe place to walk & had some great restaurants nearby. The room was spotless . They washed the floors daily. The suite provided plenty of space. The garage space however was limited & did not have room for our large car on some days. So we had to pay to park in a nearby garage a couple of days. Breakfast was great. It was a plus to have 3 computers with wi fi access available to guests.
We arrived at the hotel in the early morning (8am) and they allowed us to go to our room right away. The room was spacious and clean. The heater was great for the cold winter weather. Full cable television. Warm shower. The breakfasts were well rounded and very fresh. Wireless internet connection from the room did not work consistently, but there were 3 computers in the lounge that were always available. Great part of Santiago, safe, upscale. The metro stop was just a block away so it took less than 20 minutes to get to the city centre.
We thought the hotel was great. Small but very clean and comfortable. It is in an amazing area of Providencia. It's walking distance from everything, great restaurants, shops, nightlife etc.
The hotel is very comfortable, older furniture but we didn't have any complaints. Yes it can be noisy because of it being on a busy street but we didn't mind that at all. So I guess it's a personal choice.
Fernanda who was working the front desk when we were there was just awesome. She spoke good english and was very helpful. Even though we had to check out by noon we didn't have to leave to the airport until 10:00 pm that evening. She stored our luggage for us so we could tour the city all day and then even let us use a room to shower before we headed to the airport for a long trip home.
I would totally recommend this hotel.
The hotel is very nice for the price. The bathroom is very small but that is ok. You only get around 15 minutes of hot water so it is best to wet down, soap up and rinse off if more than 1 needs to shower. The included breakfast is the same each day- cold cuts, cheeses, rolls and bread, cold cereal, yogurt and sweet rolls. There is hot coffee and tea bags and hot water. There is a small gym also. The hotel is very close to a Metro stop so you can get to other parts of the city.

Good for my purposes
Conveniently located to metro stops, decent wireless Internet access. There was a mini-kitchen so the room would be suitable for longer stays. Surprising number of English channels on the TV. Reasonable breakfast selection. Staff were very friendly although a few words of Spanish are helpful. Light sleepers will NOT like this hotel due to 24/7 traffic noise - not a problem for heavier sleepers like me though.
A good place for the price. The kitchen is handy and well stocked. No hair dryer, though--at least not in my room. It's a good idea to bring your own travel alarm clock to Chile. None of the hotels I stayed at in Chile had clocks.
