Wonderful

Boutique hotel, full of charm. Wonderful roof-top restaurant. Staff at desk very helpful. However, if you have mobility issues be aware that there are no elevators. Ask for a room on the ground floor but know that you will have to climb a long flight of stairs for the included breakfast. But it is totally worth it! Would absolutely stay again
Steve is friendly. Location was great for New Year’s. Unfortunately our car was broken into with an (no exaggeration) 3 minutes of parking the car just to check in. The hotel and staff offered a secure parking location for $50,000 Chilean Peso’s off site but not before back note from
Loved this place, thanks for the daily 2 bottle of water. I'll really appreciated that. Thanks!

Cela aurait pu etre parfait tant le cadre la vue , le personnel, le resto , l'emplacement sont extras...gros bémol pour nous : le BRUIT. Isolation phonique défectueuse laissant passer tous les bruits de la nuit, chien qui aboient, alarmes d voitures, et des gens qui font de la musique ou parlent normalement mais, cela s'entendait mème avec la fenêtres fermée. et idem pas d clim, froid la nuit, trop chaud le jour. dommage sinon cela aurait été un merveilleux séjour.
Great location, unbeatable views, professional and friendly staff, including car service that picked me up at Santiago airport. Beautiful property respectful of historical structure combined with modern additions.
The Fauna is in a great location with a nice rooftop restaurant. The room is pretty basic but comfortable and with everything you need. The hotel details say there is laundry but there isn't. Luckily, there is a great laundry service nearby that does same day service.
Lovely stay at a unique hotel. The staff was fantastic and very helpful.
The restaurant had a variety of options and the food and drinks were delicious.
The view of Valparaiso from the room and restaurant was great.
O restaurante e localização é o ponto alto. Poderia ter TV no quarto já que depois das 18:00 o bairro fica deserto, sentimos falta, de resto, é um bom hotel no Cerro Alegre.
As fotos não demonstram tão bem, mas o hotel é claro, limpo, organizado, com decoração rústica e toque moderno. Fomos muito bem atendidos e foi possível até deixar a mala antes do check in e depois do check out. O quarto estava super limpo e possui ótimo espaço. A limpeza do banheiro também impecável, cama confortável, toalhas macias, com shampoo, sabonete e condicinador, além de secador de cabelo. Realmente me surpreendeu em relação a algumas avaliações. Valparaíso é feita de muitos morros e o hotel ainda fica em uma boa localização considerando a estrutura do bairro. Dentro dele existe o máximo de 3 lances de escada, mas novamente, considerando o bairro, super tranquilo para ficar. Café da manhã com opções mais simples, mas acredito ser da região. Vista linda do andar do restaurante e possui ótimo comércio ao redor.
They staff are really nice. Recommend a tattoo shop close to the hotel. Amazing view too

Could be great with a bit more effort and care
Great location and cool building. Reception could be a bit more helpful, possibly give some local tips like in other places, rather than just ‘hi’. The bathroom was a bit tired looking and the bed very squeaky. Unfortunately there was a plague of termites on our first evening. After an initial clean up that we did, we eventually had to get up on the night and get help from reception with bug spray (most helpful). We then needed to have the window closed and had to ask for a fan as there’s no a/c or way of ventilating the room without the window open. But it would have been better if reception had told us it was happening to make sure windows were shut and so on. We ended up with a room full of dead termites and shed wings which was pretty disgusting. Lastly, on check out the woman who took payment was extremely unfriendly, no smile, no ‘I hope you had a good stay, have a good day, thank you for staying with us’ which left a sour taste in the mouth. these things are so easy to remedy by just paying a bit more attention to details and making more of an effort.
My favorite place to stay when visiting Old Valparaiso. The hotel is well located and staff is friendly. Rooms are simple but comfy and quiet. And the restaurant is a great place to chill and enjoy the view.
