Excellent hotel, all new, well equipped. We booked the upper suite, very clean, very cool view, spectacular breakfast, delicious, every day. Hotel staff very helpful and cordial. Very good parking as well, practical. We love the complex,with several cafes, supermarket, markets and restaurants. I only gave 4 stars in comfort and not 5, because of the bathroom box. Removing the bathtub and placing a blindex would optimize the space. The only point that is not a hundred percent, but still, we would return again.

I stayed 8 days at the hotel and it was a wonderful experience, the staff very polite and patient (I don't speak Spanish), especially Felipe, Ronnie and Annie.
A few meters from the hotel there are 2 supermarkets, a starbscks, a metro station (La Moneda), so it is possible to get easily to anywhere in the city.
The hotel is in the center of Santiago, so no problems with the tour agencies.
The hotel has a mini kitchen with various utensils, so it is possible to make a pasta , sandwiches , even meat .
The breakfast is very good, especially the cream croissant and sweet milk, the eggs are diverse fruits.
Super recommend and will definitely come back.

Starting with attention. Everyone is very polite but the attendees Airton and Cristóvao (I think that's how he writes) are special. Always helpful, polite, pass all the information you need. The best tours I ever made with my sister were through her information. Even maps they drew for people. They indicated where to go and what best time, where to avoid, how to arrive, where to have a good and economical lunch. Nice, kind and very helpful. Note 1000 for them. All we have to do is thank you for the attention and affection received. The hotel is beautiful, clean, great breakfast. Excellent location on the main avenue. Close to two supermarkets, close to the main tourist attractions. Safe place inside a shopping mall. Metro stations in front of the shopping center, which take you to various points of the city spending very little.

1 - Well located in the center, below the hotel has 2 supermarkets, 1 cafeteria and fastfoods, that is, for us it was practical to buy something in the market and go up to the hotel to feed.
2 - It is close to the metro station La Moneda, a few meters on the avenue we were already at the station.
3 - Soft and comfortable bed
4 - Careful and polite reception, even not speaking Portuguese, was very quiet to communicate.
To the negatives of the hotel ⁇ 🏻
1 - Bad WI-FI, we are in two rooms and the problem was in both, network unstable, dropped and returned and had no quality for video call.
2 - Shower, we couldn't take a right bath. Tighted the shower space, which in fact was a shower that is inside a bathtub. I possess 1.86m high, the shower was at the height of my chin and close to the head on the ceiling. To finish, there was no glass box closure, just a curtain, where the water that splashes in you flows through it and soaks the whole bathroom floor.
3 - There was no water in two days, in the early morning period where we had a walk to do and we could not take a bath or wash our hands and another day in the evening period.
4 - One of the room number 2014 was at all times making a noise and vibration, ⁇ by the lift machine house, we do not know.
5 - In the 2014 room had a small kitchen, which we needed to use the microwave but it did not work. The kitchen is quite tiny, with few dishes, glasses and pans.
6 - Breakfast is bad, had 3 bread varieties, 2 cheeses, salami and egg. Cereals, yogurt, coffee, 2 types of fruit and some candy like cake and a roast of goiabada. A coffee without taste, bad sweets with artificial taste, a disappointment. If the little you offer would be good, but I don't see how to serve it in a hotel.
Our conclusion that we would never return to the hotel, we met too many others that contains a much higher standard for the same price.
My accommodation was from 11/08/2024 to 17/08/2024.

We were overcharged for 2 people staying in the room. Never seen this happen before. I paid for a room for 2 people, and when I got there they charged us an extra 80 USD for two people to stay in the room. We had no choice but to pay. Then we got to the room just to find out the tiny bathtub with plastic curtains where you shower, old furniture, soft bed and old hair dresser. Oh, and the Wifi didn't work the entire time we were there.
Don't stay here.

The hotel is old and needs urgent renovation, remove baths from the bathroom that are small and uncomfortable, improve the breakfast that is weak and every day the same things are served, remove those carpets that are not hygienic and have an exclusive area for breakfast. And the swimming pool that nobody mentions has been disabled since the pandemic. The location is excellent and the staff score 10 for everyone. Unfortunately it is the hotel that needs renovation.

It is an ApartHotel that meets everything you need, the bed in good condition, clean, kitchen with electric hob, everything fine. For parking you have to pay extra, however, the vehicle is safe. It has some details like how old the air conditioning sounded a lot when activated so we decided to leave it off. In the bathroom there is soap but only in the sink, in the shower there is no and the sink is set in such a way that it is not possible to take it to the shower.

The hotel is very well located, in a commercial area, close to the La Moneda metro and with a supermarket in front.
The room is very spacious, with air conditioning and a beautiful view (I stayed in the 21st room), but I didn't like the bathroom very much.
The shower has a small bathtub, I think something very common here in Chile, but it is high and doesn't provide any security, the risk of slipping in it or when getting out of it is great.
Friendly staff, it has elevators and the Wi-Fi works perfectly. The room has a minibar for those who want to shop at the market and stock up on water, soda, etc.
There is no Smart TV, at least not in the room I stayed in.
It's a great hotel and in the central region, you can do a lot of things on foot or take the metro.

RQ was a pleasant surprise. The hotel is very well located, next to the La Moneda Metro station, which makes it easy to get to the main points of the city, as well as the airport. The hotel is located inside a shopping center, which is great! There is a Starbucks, Subway, a Supermarket and an Oxxo in the complex, as well as some restaurants. The rooms follow the apart-hotel standard, with a microwave, oven, stove and some kitchen utensils. View of the Entel tower and the mountain ranges in the background. The reception has cordial and kind attendants, with special thanks to Michelle and the red-haired Manager who are very nice.

Very cozy hotel, impeccable cleanliness. The only reservations, is the bathroom (box with bathtub) very tight and only with curtain. General room lighting leaves a bit to be desired. The location is fantastic, but some access grids close at 21:30, making it difficult to deliver power apps, for example. But overall, it's very worth it.
