Everything about this little hotel was great. The location is ideal- near lots of restaurants & shops. The house itself is so charming...right down to the wonderful employees who were so helpful and gracious to us. This was a highlight of our visit to Chile. more

The hotel is situated in Conception which is the nicest part of the city in a great building on a quiet street (although I disagree with building an extra floor in a conservation area not matter how sympathetically done) My room was really bright and airy with period furniture coupled with a really large contemporary bathroom. The staff could not... more

The hotel is filled with antiques and... more

However, we were safely delivered and after a little confusion about our booking (the hotel's email system, they said, had been a bit erratic) we were given a lovely room on the first floor at the front of the house. The ambience... more

We stayed one night at the Thomas Somerscales hotel. The house is beautiful, spotless and very well decorated and maintained. Our stay was comfortable and the staff is friendly and helpful. We arrived around lunch time and our allocated room was not ready yet so they gave us another, better, for the same price. We paid 55,000 CLP (approx USD... more
