Why we recommend it

Casa Bueras Boutique Hotel, whose former Lastarria Boutique Hotel web address now redirects to it, is a small place to stay in Barrio Lastarria, the protected heritage quarter of central Santiago. It occupies a historic building that has been redesigned to offer warm accommodation and personalised service, at Coronel Santiago Bueras 188.

The hotel's facilities are simple but well chosen. There is an outdoor pool, a real bonus on hot summer afternoons after a day of walking, and breakfast is included in the rate. An honesty bar lets guests help themselves to a drink, the reception is open 24 hours and wifi is free. The hotel also hosts weddings, which gives an idea of the charm of the building and its spaces.

The hotel emphasises personalised service, and the site lists a Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice badge and a Petit Futé listing. It is a good option for travellers who want character and a central location without paying the rates of the luxury hotels in the same neighbourhood.

The location is excellent. Lastarria's cafés and restaurants are on the doorstep, and you can walk to Cerro Santa Lucía, Parque Forestal and the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, and on to Bellavista and Cerro San Cristóbal across the river. Bar Liguria's Lastarria branch on Merced and Emporio La Rosa are a few minutes away. Universidad Católica and Bellas Artes are the nearest metro stations.

Bookings and enquiries can be made by phone on +56 2 2840 3700, by WhatsApp on +56 9 4597 8816, or by email at [email protected]. As with any small hotel, book ahead for weekends and the high season, and confirm details such as room size and accessibility when you reserve, as older buildings often have stairs.

The hotel's own description calls Lastarria the most bohemian neighbourhood in Santiago, and that is the spirit to expect. Casa Bueras suits couples, solo travellers and culture-focused visitors who want to explore the centre on foot. It is a sensible mid-range alternative to The Singular and Hotel Cumbres Lastarria nearby, and a quieter base than Bellavista for those who want to be close to the nightlife but not in the middle of it.
