Throughout Chilean territory the traveler will find an interesting hotel offer, including modern state-of-the-art facilities, but also presenting the typical features of the local architectural style - a harmonious blend of past and present, rounded off with a full range of top quality guest services.

In the main tourist destinations in Chile you will find a range of lodging options running from super deluxe hotels to simple facilities for lodgers, offering only the basic comforts.

This lodging "menu" is particularly varied in Santiago, the capital city, one of Latin America's main cosmopolitan metropolises, offering world-class lodging facilities.

In the neighboring cities of Valparaiso and Viña del Mar there is a similar situation, as they are tourism spots. However, outside these three examples, all the tourism areas have multiple lodging options that fit all types of budgets, so visitors will always find somewhere affordable to stay.

The lowest rates for boarding houses or small hostels start at 7 to 14 dollars a night, whereas at the other end of the lodging spectrum one has luxury hotel accommodations up to around 450 dollars a night.

If you wish to avoid problems when seeking lodging, it is a good idea to make advance reservations, especially in the high season for tourism (see hotel listings for each destination), as this is when demand usually steps up.
