The rooms are fairly basic but sufficient for a city break. Lunch is served on the terrace overlooking the city and has a great selection of local cuisine. Make site you try the wild bore or the crevice. The restaurant also has an extensive, award winning, wine list.

This is a fabulous old house with beautiful view of the water. It was difficult to find but after we did, we certainly enjoyed our two nights there. The breakfast buffet was fine, and we enjoyed a few neighborhood restaurants. It was a very enjoyable place to walk around and enjoy the sights. The girl at the front desk was... More

Though the hotel is certainly old, I think Grand is too much praise and we'd give it about 2 stars based on our stay. The room we had was a little too original, with an old sagging bed and the bathroom on a lower floor. The room was across from the Kitchen and opened onto the main hallway so rather... More

Loved the port, the breeze off the bay, the big ships, the neighborhood. Very romantic. Though it is beautiful (& better wifi connection) staying on the bottom floor, (Room 4) be aware that if you enjoy leaving open the window & shades & tall french doors onto to the lovely small balcony open in summer, the tourists snapping photos of...

The hotel is not recommended. The hotel is a fire trap with no escape routes from the first floor. Not suitable for disabled and families with children. Boring breakfast buffet. Lot of noise day and night. Untrustworthy and untruthful hotel manager, when he makes a mistake with our booking. Only 1 or 2 stars for this bad hotel. Mette +... More

This hotel is definitely full of personality. It is gorgeous and sits up in the hills so it has a great view from the patio. The rooms are very cute, though a bit small. It would have been nice to have a fridge in the room for cold drinks. Service was very friendly. We ate there once for lunch and... More

A beautiful classic hotel with an incredible view of the bay in the historic part of town. Walk to wonderful restaruants and shops and some of the best outdoor murals you will ever see. This is not for those who want an anywhere in the world hotel with all the blandness that means. It is for people who like to... More

The hotel is located on the hill of Valparaiso which means you get great views across into the harbour. Initially the hotel is very hard to find as if you are using the streets to get to the hotel, you will make more turns in the windy backstreets of Valpa than a F1 driver. However, there is a historic old... More

The location is great, but it has to get more parkings urgently, altough the crew was helpful in this matter. The restaurant was ok. The most serious problem is the noise, so it is very difficult to rest, you can hear everything from your room.

This hotel is one of my favorites. Built in 1870, the hotel exudes history, with magnificent views over "Valpo" and Vina Del Mar. Sitting in the outdoor bar area on a hot day drinking a cold beer, was delightful. The staff are friendly, courteous and are only too eager to please. The hotel is only 5 mins from downtown Valpo...

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
The Hotel is set on the very singular Paseo Gervasoni (Gervasoni Walk), one of the most traditional lookout points in the Valparaiso hills. It is located in the heart of an area declared by Unesco to be a World Heritage Site in 2003. Mount Concepcion and Mount Alegre give shape to the attractive surroundings of this exclusive Boutique Hotel. The views of Valparaiso Bay have no equal and restaurants, cafés, stores and countless touristic activities can be found nearbys.The Hotel is the fruit of lengthy restoration work to recover one of the homes of greatest cultural value in the hills of Valparaiso, measuring more than 11,000 square feet. This house was built by European immigrants circa 1870. The imposing building, now transformed into a boutique hotel, uniquely portrays, through its welcoming setting, the lifestyles of the generations of families that lived on the hill.The house’s architecture takes you back in time to the mode of life at the end of the 19th century. Luxury refurbishings concordant to the comforts of a five-star hotel interweave discreetly throughout the patrimonial air in the house, creating just the right cross between tradition and moderness.There are fourteen exclusive suites in the Hotel, each with a private bath, central heating, intercom, satellite television and Wi-Fi. Four of those suites include a hydromassage bathtub, decorated and furnished in the fashion of the era. Each room offers a one-of-a-kind experience: fifteen different ways to gaze at the sea and the hills of Valparaiso. They are fully equipped with all comforts that guarantee a perfect rest.The Breakfast Room and wide terrace, set on the steep edge of the hill, dominate the views of the Bay and the hills of Valparaiso. A buffet breakfast is served here from early on in the day, and it is also an ideal place to spend an afternoon relaxing with a before-dinner drink, blending in with the bayside landscape. The outside terrace is climatized and protected from the wind, yet still permitting vistas of the bay. ... more   less
