It is a nice place in a cantral part of town. The staff are very nice and help out where they can. The rooms are well equipped, not luxurious but more than adequate for the price.

I don't have many hostal experiences but this is worth every penny. The food delicious and the staff super. The only bad thing is that the floor of the room is made of wood and you can hear your moves and other guest. Also it was uncomfortable that early in the morning or late at night you can hear loud people. But everything was amazing. I was a solo traveler and felt safe. Even doe I came in at night.

Comfy in Santiago
Our second stay at this hotel and again we found it very welcoming and comfortable. The hotel is a lovely arts and crafts style building in a central position.
The bedroom was small but adequate with a comfortable bed; we both slept well. Breakfast is a limited buffet style meal but tasty and ample enough to get the day started well. The locality was a little more depressed than on our previous visit due to civil unrest a few years ago.

The hotel is at a location walkable to Santiago's main tourist attractions. But the shower water was luke-warm and breakfast just was meager. Not sure why the rating was so high.

The breakfast was nice - not a buffet, but served at your choice of patio (2) or dining room (2) locations, or in the bar! The room was clean and comfortable, and the shower had good water pressure. It was very much worth the cost.

3 day stay at Hostal Rio Amazonas
I had a terrific experience during my 3 day stay at the Hostal Rio Amazonas. The accommodation was very nice, very quiet and the atmosphere very relaxing. All members of the staff that assisted me, from arriving, to room and laundry care, to breakfast and dinner service were better than excellent. The friendly and helpful personal touch extended to guests was very much appreciated. Access to subway very easy. I highly recommend this hotel. Thank you very much for the hospitality.

Lovely Hostal/Stained Glass Windows - tough place
We planned 2 nights in Mar. 2020 near the core of Santiago. Booking July 2019 before the protests/riots of October, we were unaware that the protesters chose to organize only two blocks north from this beautiful hostal. Check-in & other services were spot-on with an inside bar, homemade yogurt/juice for breakfast. But, per a March resurgence in protests/riots, we found our 1st night uncomfortably warm in the room.
We had to shut the window to block out the noise and tear gas that encircled streets around the hostal. We chose to leave before the second night. We were mostly concerned that we might not be able to leave Sunday afternoon for the airport. We are so grateful for the faithful staff that kept calm and collected during that Friday night. We hope that things will resolve soon so that this lovely hostal will again be in a quiet and comfortable place.

Top Hotel
A very centrally placed hotel near to the tube with lots of good restaurants close by. It looked very much like a Lutyens home moved from Surrey to Santiago.
The room was clean and had adequate space for two people to move around comfortably. No road noise effected our sleep on the comfy bed. The bathroom had the smallest bath tub on the planet but as it had a shower over it it was fine. Breakfast was limited but good. A small bar in the hotel was very welcome.
The staff were, to a man and woman, very hospitable and did whatever they could to make us feel welcome and enjoy our stay.
