The hotel staff were so kind and helpful in providing recommendations!

A quiet oasis - the food was also fantastic.

A must do

Brian was an amazing guide and super knowledgeable of the area and mountain

This was enjoyable, but prepare yourself for it to be very cold and it goes much longer than I expected

We loved this hotel more than any other, and our rooftop rooms with private terraces were extraordinary. The staff was friendly and helpful. The design and decor were lovely. Be prepared for the stairs, but don't let that stop you from staying here unless you are unable to climb stairs on your own. A friendly thought: if you're unable to navigate stairs, Valparaiso may not be the best city for you to visit.

The rooms were beautiful and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, and the evening self-serve honesty tab was a welcome respite at the end of the day. The staff were professional and accommodating and kind. The interior courtyard is serene.

Very comfortable rooms and kind, attentive staff.

We had several food allergies that we communicated in advance of our trip. The chef was able to fully accommodate those requirements, and our evening in the chef's home was splendid!

Cassas del Bosque was the best meal we ate anywhere in Chile in our 3-week trip. Extraordinary!

Rentals were very easy in Santiago before heading up to the mountain. The ride up and down can be a little stomach-churning with all the hairpin turns and the sometimes impatient drivers! The mountain was nice but only some trails were open. We spent a day skiing, which was enough - there wasn't enough open to spend any more time than that on the mountain (for reference: we are fairly experienced skiers - black/double black in the Rockies), but we definitely got a kick out of being able to ski in August!

Don't worry: getting up EARLY in the morning to head out to the geysers is worth it! They're almost other-worldly and they're absolutely beautiful rising in the cold air and as the sun rises in the morning. The tour company was great and prepared a delicious breakfast for us on the way back!

Four stars only because the second winery - Santa Ema - wasn't quite as fun/informative as the first, Santa Rita. I think Santa Rita does a LOT more tours, so they seem to have the whole experience better planned. Santa Ema's guide was friendly but not as informative about the wines, the terroir, etc. Having said that, it's a beautiful winery (as is Santa Rita) and drinking wine on a nice, sunny day is never a bad thing....

JP was a great guide for multiple excursions with him. We had a great time on the stargazing and buggy ride in particular. The buggy ride let us explore parts of the desert landscape that just weren't accessible by car.

The room I had was lovely and clean. The only negative is that it was incredible noisy. I couldn’t sleep for the road noise underneath. If I had a different room it would have been great.

Quaint hotel, great location

Outstanding staff and location

Roger the guide gave our tour the most amazing information and experience. Thoroughly enjoyed everything. Take warm clothes, hats, gloves etc as it’s cold at the high elevations

Amazing guides, knowledgeable and very welcoming

We really enjoyed staying at Hotel La Casa de Don Tomas. The food was good, and the staff was really kind and helpful. The room was comfortable and just what we needed. We liked everything!

The front desk person John went out of his way to be kind and helpful

Beautiful location and staff was friendly and helpful

Amazing experience. Edith treated me like family.

Nice rooms, clean and very friendly staff. Would definitely stay here again. Only issue is our ground floor window wouldn't lock, otherwise a very pleasant stay.

Clean and basic. The staff is wonderful and very helpful, which was greatly appreciated.

The setting is majestic but probably our least favorite stay.

The hotel is, as the name suggests, very simple. But our favorite dinners of the Chilean trip were at their dining room. Quite the culinary treat!

Very eclectic, very charming. The room was bright and spacious. The restaurant / dinner was outstanding. They introduced us to the Calafate Sour and we loved our stay here.

Greatly enjoyed our stay here. The hotel was located on beautiful grounds with an authentic French Polynesian feel. Delicious dinner and wonderful staff.

Convenient but understaffed.

Loved our stay here. Even when the afternoon tour was canceled due to weather, we enjoyed staying at the hotel. GREAT staff, very helpful.

Charming and lovely boutique hotel. Great breakfasts, wonderful staff.

We wish that the experience was more intimate. Loved seeing the National Park, but it was the only big group tour of our trip, which was disappointing.

Loved our hike. The driver and guide were great. THIS felt like what we wanted to experience in Patagonia!

Didn't see the thousands of penguins that were described by KimKim, but still enjoyed the experience

Not a highlight of our touring experience.

What a pleasant surprise. The wine tour was ok, but we loved Valparaiso.

The private dinner was a highlight of our trip. Not only was the dinner delicious; the hosts were extraordinarily kind. Loved it!

We saw so much in our introduction to the city.

First luxury cruise...very well run, efficient,pleasant knowledgeable staff, clean, well stocked..delicious meals, very scenic routes and fun interesting shore trips..we had great weather..and about 2/3 passenger capacity as it was the fall..a great time to go..fewer people..more attentive service...

Lovely modern hotel in central location..gorgeous art work,great food, staff were pleasant and helpful...we overlooked the central square which was very attractive..

After tripping around it was great to stay in a modern upscale hotel Good location in town, on the water, breakfast very satisfying, staff helpful, gorgeous art work..

Plain older place, clean,good location,helpful English speaking staff, breakfast just barely ok...no protein...tired looking fruit...

Very comfortable room...pleasant staff..buffet breakfast was ok..dinner menu was basic..

Tour boat packed with people...weather was good..some sun and cloud.. visited first glacier which was amazing...meal was ok at a local hall..

Wow..first exposure to the scenery mountains. Sky...guide and driver were knowledgeable pleasant helpful and seemed to enjoy their work..a great day..

This was a really great idea and our hosts were pleasant generous and the meal itself very good..4 courses plus wine..our guide and host played guitar and because they are friends there was much warmth during the evening..

Our guide was pleasant knowledgeable and loved his job...we walked a great deal...took the metro..and learned more about the city its history and local sites...helpful for our first day as we could then get around on our own...

Visit was pleasant..lovely location and tasty lunch..wine tastings were fruitful...our driver was pleasant and courteous..

Our guide was very pleasant knowledgeable, courteous, spoke good English,..we had a very pleasant day driving south to Isla Negra and stopped along the way...he went out of his way to help us see around Neruda's summer house there even though it was closed..

Soledad was great..she was informed, gave us needed practical information and a pleasant person to work with

Driver and guide Soledad were the right people to get us started in Chile..they were very helpful, pleasant and introduced us to the country and city

Only drawback was a location a little far from the main eating and shopping district— but still walkable.

Friendly boutique hotel where nothing was too much trouble for staff. Comfortable beds and beautiful communal courtyard to sit out in. Perfectly located for access to bars and restaurants

It felt amazing trekking in an actual canyon in the Atacama desert and the highlight was our own personal ‘spa’ at the end of it…delightful to swim in the natural mountain water

Such a special place. Peaceful, beautiful, great food and wine, I only wish we could have stayed longer.

A truly unique experience.

One of the best things we've ever done. The food and wine were beyond compare. The small group of people were interesting and fun. The scenery was breathtaking. The memory of the day we will never forget.

Wow. Amazing. It was a private tour, and we could have never seen or tasted the food and wine that we experienced that day.

This was a private tour, on private property, which is probably why we were able to see the condors near their nests on the wall of the rocks. There was not another soul that we saw that day other than my husband and I and our guide. A unique experience, and the guide was able to adjust the level of trekking to our abilities, as we are 67 and 72 yrs old, and are in good shape, but not up for anything too strenuous. Just the hike and scenery were worth the trip, the condors were icing on the cake.

We had a great time, the food and service was amazing. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and unique. The chocolate croissants at breakfast were particularly delicious!
