Your guide to the best luxury hotels in Santiago de Chile
The Ritz-Carlton Santiago · El GolfFor this guide we have put together the best hotels in Santiago: nine luxury hotels, almost all of them 5-star hotels, with a typical rate of 172 € per night – below the figure for our Chile portfolio as a whole, which the lodges in Patagonia and the Atacama pull upwards.At no extra cost: booking through suitespot costs the same as booking direct with the hotel – the benefits come on top, free of charge.
Nine 5-star hotels in Santiago – how to choose
The best hotels in Santiago sit in two halves of the city that could hardly differ more.
Mandarin Oriental Santiago · Las CondesIn the east, in Las Condes, El Golf and Vitacura, stand six: The Ritz-Carlton Santiago – for us the first address in the city – with the widest choice of categories, the Mandarin Oriental Santiago, the W Santiago, the Santiago Marriott Hotel, the Hyatt Centric Las Condes Santiago and the Renaissance Santiago Hotel, the cheapest 5-star hotel in Santiago.
In the old town follow three: The Singular Santiago Lastarria Hotel and the Hotel Magnolia Santiago de Chile in the Lastarria quarter, and the Debaines Hotel Santiago in the centre, whose penthouse is the largest suite in town.
Our travel advisors’ insider tip
Santiago has a landmark you can barely book – and that is exactly the useful clue here.
The city sits in front of the Andes. On clear winter days they are the first thing you see in the morning. Even so, you can deliberately book a view of the mountains at only one of our nine hotels: the Mandarin Oriental Santiago.
That does not mean you cannot get it elsewhere. Five hotels have rooms looking out over the city, from The Singular Santiago Lastarria Hotel you look onto the Parque Forestal. And The Ritz-Carlton Santiago, the W Santiago and the Renaissance Santiago Hotel all three stand in the east – on the side that faces the mountains.
Hence a piece of advice worth more here than elsewhere: ask us about the floor and the direction. Whether you see the Andes is decided by the individual room – and our travel advisors know which one it is.
One more thing for the planning: between May and August the air is clearest after a day of rain. Those are the days on which the question pays off at all.
For context: the typical rate is 172 €, and more than four times separates the cheapest hotel from the most expensive. For planning: at seven of the nine hotels the suitespot benefits apply from the first night.
Where to stay in Santiago: the east side or the old town
Choosing an area in Santiago means choosing between two rhythms.
W Santiago · Las CondesThe east around Las Condes, El Golf and Vitacura is the modern Santiago: glass towers, shopping streets, the best restaurants in the city – and the shortest way to the airport and the ski areas. Our recommendation: The Ritz-Carlton Santiago.
The old town around Lastarria and the centre is the older Santiago: Cerro Santa Lucía, the Plaza de Armas, the museums and the bookshops – and in the evening the bars in the nineteenth-century buildings. Our recommendation: The Singular Santiago Lastarria Hotel.
Twenty minutes on the metro separate the two, and the metro here is clean, fast and cheap – so staying in the east still puts you in the old town.
For orientation: the airport is thirty minutes to the north-west, Valparaíso and the coast an hour and a half, the wineries of the Maipo valley an hour – and the Valle Nevado and Farellones ski areas also an hour, but steeply uphill.
Rooms and suites: the best hotels in Santiago from the inside
The best hotels in Santiago offer 118 categories, 45 of them suites – a strikingly high share for a selection of this size.
The Singular Santiago Lastarria Hotel · LastarriaThe largest is at the Debaines Hotel Santiago: a penthouse at 240 square metres. Then comes the Mandarin Oriental Santiago four times over – at 161, 141 and twice 122 square metres.
The widest choice is at The Ritz-Carlton Santiago with 30 categories, followed by the Mandarin Oriental Santiago with 21. At the other end stand the Hyatt Centric Las Condes Santiago with five and the Hotel Magnolia Santiago de Chile with six – both small hotels where the choice is quickly made.
The view varies a great deal here: from the Mandarin Oriental Santiago you see the Andes on clear days, from The Singular Santiago Lastarria Hotel you look out over the Parque Forestal. At five more hotels the view runs across the city – the higher the floor, the further it reaches.

What a night at a luxury hotel in Santiago costs
The typical rate is 172 € per night, below the figure for our Chile portfolio as a whole – the lodges in Patagonia and the Atacama pull the country figure up, and the capital stays under it.
The selection starts at 82 € at the Renaissance Santiago Hotel and runs up to 406 € at the Mandarin Oriental Santiago – more than four times as much. In between lie the Santiago Marriott Hotel from 141 €, The Singular Santiago Lastarria Hotel from 156 € and The Ritz-Carlton Santiago from 189 €. Worth noting: the cheapest and the most expensive entry both stand in the east – the area does not decide the price here.
| Luxury hotel | From | suitespot benefits from |
|---|---|---|
| Renaissance Santiago Hotel | 82 € | 1st night |
| Santiago Marriott Hotel | 141 € | 1st night |
| The Singular Santiago Lastarria Hotel | 156 € | 1st night |
| Hyatt Centric Las Condes Santiago | 163 € | 2 nights |
| Hotel Magnolia Santiago de Chile | 172 € | 1st night |
| W Santiago | 178 € | 1st night |
| The Ritz-Carlton Santiago | 189 € | 1st night |
| Debaines Hotel Santiago | 223 € | 2 nights |
| Mandarin Oriental Santiago | 406 € | 1st night |
When it is at its best: from September to November and from March to May. That is spring and autumn in the southern hemisphere: mild days, cool evenings – and in autumn the harvest in the valleys outside the city.
When it is cheap: from June to August. That is the Chilean winter with the lowest rates – and at the same time the season when the Andes carry snow and stand clearer after a day of rain than at any other time.
When to book early: for the national holiday in mid-September, when half the country is travelling, and in January and February, when Santiago goes on summer holiday.
And whatever the date: the suitespot benefits apply in July exactly as they do in October.
How long to stay: three nights – two for the city and one for what lies outside it: the wineries of the Maipo valley, Valparaíso on the coast, or in winter a day in the snow. If Patagonia follows, take two and come back at the end.
At seven of the nine hotels they apply from the first night; at the Debaines Hotel Santiago and the Hyatt Centric Las Condes Santiago from at least two nights.
Points and status you collect at eight of the nine hotels, spread across 5 programmes. The most common is Marriott Bonvoy with four.
The Andes, food and exclusive services at a 5-star hotel
What our travel advisors arrange most often in Santiago is the day in the Maipo valley: an hour to the south, wineries that have grown French vines since the nineteenth century, lunch among the barrels – and the Andes in the afternoon light on the way back.
Personal luxury travel adviceOur travel advisors personally accompany your booking – 365 days a year, from the first offer to late check-out. Reach the suitespot VIP service via email or WhatsApp.Phone: +49 30 81452346 · hotel@suitespot.comAdd to that: Cerro San Cristóbal with the funicular, best before breakfast; the Mercado Central for fish; the Museum of Memory, which asks for time and quiet; and Valparaíso with its lifts and painted hills, an hour and a half away on the coast.
And the food: seafood from the Humboldt current, of a quality few coasts can match; empanadas, which nobody here treats as a starter; and the wines that grow in the next valley and still appear on restaurant lists less often than you would expect – ask for them.
On top of breakfast, an upgrade chance and late check-out, six of the nine hotels add a hotel credit.
100 US dollars for food and drink come at The Ritz-Carlton Santiago and the W Santiago. At the Mandarin Oriental Santiago it is 100 US dollars, 200 in suites, split evenly between food and drink and the spa – though not on every rate. The Hotel Magnolia Santiago de Chile gives 100 US dollars or the equivalent in the currency the hotel states; our travel advisors will tell you in advance what that means for your dates. 50 US dollars come at the Debaines Hotel Santiago and the Hyatt Centric Las Condes Santiago.
Breakfast for two is included at all nine; at The Ritz-Carlton Santiago it is served in Estro, at the W Santiago in NoSo. We register your VIP status before arrival.
