Le Rêve Hotel Boutique, Santiago

Location

Billed as Santiago’s ‘most charming hotel’, Le Rêve mixes colonial character with a quietness that belies its city location. Situated on a pretty street in the lively neighbourhood of Providencia, it’s a convenient base for exploring the capital with several attractions, including some of Santiago’s best theatres and restaurants, close at hand.

Accommodation

The hotel’s 31 rooms are spread across the upper three floors, each one immaculately furnished in typical French style and equipped with wireless internet, air conditioning and flat screen TVs. Consider upgrading to a Deluxe King with Terrace for a private outside area with tiled flooring and plenty of space to relax with a glass or two of fine Chilean wine.

Dining

While the hotel doesn’t offer lunch or dinner, there are several superb restaurants and cafes nearby, including a number directly opposite the hotel.  Breakfast, which is included in the rate, is served in the dining room or, during summer, in the ivy-clad courtyard garden. There’s also a self-service honesty bar for drinks and a kitchen open to guests throughout the evening for complimentary snacks.
