Traveling with my husband in Chile, we wanted to have a nice break in Santiago after trekking for a few days in Torres del Paine. We took ages to find a nice boutique hotel in a good area- most of them are well situated but lack a certain charm. Nonetheless, we found L'Ambassade Petit Hotel Santiago in Providencia and it was just what we wanted- intimate and with a swimming pool. Picture this: delicious breakfast on our own private terrace, lunch by the swimming pool, private city tour (a must!) and the young and dynamic Franco-Chilean owners are charming and very helpful. A definite must in Santiago.

I can confirm this is a real treat. It is set in a pleasant neighbourhood and the owners are very helpful. We were there in winter/spring so the pool wasn't open. But the breakfasts are very well presented if not sizeable by English standards and the rooms are very comfortable with all amenities. We paid 50,000 Pesos for a double which is about £80 so not bad. Only thing is it is a 25 minute walk from Pedro Valdivia Metro, not 'next' to as the bad translation says. But you can flag a taxi down outside the Metro for about £3.
