Hotel Quito in Santiago

It was like staying over at grandma’s house. The place was cozy, safe and above all, warm in the winter and coming from Southern California, that was extremely important to me. It got cold at night in Chile! My bathroom had a deep old fashioned tub and I took a HOT bath with HOT running water which is the only real luxury I care about. The breakfast consisted of a huge piece of French style baguette, butter, jelly, cheese, hot milk and OJ. The best way to describe this hotel is like a French country house. The staff here reminded me of my grandparents and the staff has real intentions of keeping you safe. The Hotel has a unique charm that you won’t find anywhere else. If you’re looking for a modern, icy, stainless steel type of place, this isn’t the one. If you’re a young hipster like me that likes vintage and history, this is perfect for you. The place, I was told by the manager, is about 100 years old. It has a cellar where the manager keeps supplies like towels. The cellar is off limits but of course I took a peek! It’s a mansion turned into a hotel, how cool is that!
