Good location - near the plaza. Clean hotel, very clean rooms. No A/C, No fan, quite hot in the room during the day. Extremely poor wi-fi signals - couldn't even load a simple web page. Room light bulbs missing, some light bulbs didn't work. The TV was mounted crooked - it was weird to watch TV having to tilt head in order to do so.

This is a review of the restaurant-Restaurante Dona Gabriela-at this hotel and not of the hotel itself....I spent four days in La Serena in May of this year and dined at this restaurant once...It did not disappoint....The vegetable soup was excellent and the chicken dish that I had as a main was perfect....Desserts were also top class....The staff were friendly and I want to mention Javiera and Sandy in particular...Prices were reasonable...This restaurant is definitely worth returning to...Top marks....10 out of 10.

somewhat old-fashioned ambience can be perceived as charm, in case the staff would ensure availability of swimming pool and offer features that are stated on their website. We experienced broken chain in closet, missing batteries for the safe, thin walls. Breakfast is alright though - if you like extremely large rooms.

Beautiful colonial building, excellent location near the main square, with access to transportation to any place of the city. Food at restaurant is delicious and cheap. The best of all, its receptionists and waitresses, great people. They make you feel good and comfortable.

Traditional hotel very well located, one block from the Plaza de Armas (main square) and one block from the Japanese Gardens. Very close to the main avenue, Francisco de Aguirre. The hotel is very spacious, has a swimming pool in a small garden, I laid down on the lounge chairs to rest, very comfortable. The breakfast was rich and varied enough (coffee, tea, breads, yogurt, cereals, jam, ham, salami, cheese, fruits, juices, eggs, sweet pastries). I didn't have lunch or dinner at the hotel, so I can't comment on that. Comfortable bed and clean bathroom, shower with plenty of water, several clean towels. The only downside: the internet was a bit intermittent, sometimes the signal didn't get through or it went out and you had to reconnect. That is a problem if you are going to work for a long time using the network. But if you're going out all day and just come to the room to read the news or your emails, it doesn't matter much. I did not have the type of plug used in Chile (3-pole) to charge my cell phone and laptop; the front desk had several and lent me one for the duration of my stay. Extra points for that!

Very friendly staff, very quiet to rest, close to the center, own parking, the WIFI connection is terrible, I imagine that breakfast improves with more guests compared to other hotels in the area. I think it should improve.

Very pleasant stay. I loved the classic feel of the hotel. Staff were very helpful and courteous. Rooms are quiet but very dated, needing an update. I love staying downtown, which is very vibrant. I definitely would stay here again.

Complimentary coffee in the evening, there is no.
Eggs at breakfast must be ordered.

I was left with the feeling that he lacked the chaucha pal peso..

MUY MALA EXPERIENCIA, desde antes de llegar, el teléfono de la recepción no contesto llamados todo una tarde y no pude avisar mi horario de llegada. Al llegar la primera sorpresa: Mi reserva era por una habitación de 28 m2, y me entregaron una pieza de 14 m2. Cuando reclamé su explicación fue sorprendente, me dicen que es un error de la web, y que indiferente de lo que uno reserve le asiganan la pieza que tengan disponible. Una estafa haber reservado. La habitación, desaseada, sin higienizar los baños, ningún sello de la limpieza, cero indicación como número de la recepción, horarios de desayunos, nada. La ropa de cama pobre, desgastada, las almohadas con su vida útil vencida. Cobertor sucio y desgastadao, lo mismo el sillón sucio y desgastado. El desayuno pobre, y en un buffet mal desatendido, sin reposiciones, ejemplo, solo un tipo de pan, sin tostadora, café en sachet vencidos, etc. etc. Fruta en conserva, mantequilla en sachet y nada mas. Los pasajeros peleándose por la comida. Una verguenza para un Hotel. El acceso al estacionamiento no tiene protección alguna, existe citófono, pero el control lo tiene el mismo recepcionista, entonces, abre y cierra el porton automático, sin preguntar nada. Le abre a cualquiera que se aproxime a la entrada generando la inseguridad para todo el hotel. La piscina no tiene protección alguna, no hay cuidadores, no hay señalética, no tiene horario, no hay disponible control de acidez ni cloración del agua, no hay enfermería, no tiene baranda para niños, UN PELIGRO. Y mas encima no tiene horarios, pasajeros bañandose de noche, sin que ha nadie le llame la atención.
