    Cool and quirky Barrio Bellavista offers you bars, clubs, parks, shopping opportunities and street art galore. Consider settling down at The Aubrey, which boasts four-star luxury and a piano bar. A little more low-key is Hotel Terrazas Bellavista – a small and peaceful oasis in the city with a garden, rooftop bar and pool. It’s also around the corner from the tube station.

    Get away from the crowds for a more chilled stay in Santiago and head to the neighbourhood of Barrio Brasil. We recommend Matildas Hotel Boutique for its tranquil garden-view rooms and elegant interiors. Travelling on a budget? Landay Hostel has comfy dorms, a shared dining room and lounge, and free Wi-Fi.
