Only 200 metres from Santa Isabel Metro Station, Ventana Sur Hostal features a swimming pool and a terrace. Free Wi-Fi and breakfast are provided. Common kitchen and BBQ facilities are available.

Rooms at Ventana Sur have individual lockers. Some of them feature balconies and private bathrooms.

This place is amazing, especially for solo travelers. It's set up in a way that makes it really easy to hang out in the central garden space, and everyone just chats and goes out together. The pool's also great for a hot day. The location is AMAZING. I love the Italiano neighborhood. It's super safe to walk around at night. The breakfast is huge and filling. I liked it so much I came back.

At Hostal Providencia, guests will be able to use the lockers and safety-deposit box free of charge. Laundry services are available for an extra fee. Additionally, guests are welcome to use the barbecue facilities.

Loved this place! Comfy bed, nice shared bathrooms, decent kitchen (small but ok equipment). They really think of so many little details -- community events every night (pizza, crepes, pub crawls), 24h friendly staff, a bin with clothes donated by other travelers, fridges with free / shared food, a gym with some good space and a couple weights / kettlebells (although it definitely needs a fan for air circulation), even a fridge stocked with sandwiches and cake loaves and fruit /yogurt for purchase if you want something quick and cheap! Location is very close to subways and about a 20+ minute walk from more central areas. Would 100% recommend and happily stay again!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The team of Pariwana Hostel is really kind and caring. I stayed in a 12 person dorm and it was still super comfortable. Good mattress and a big locker for your stuff. The bathrooms are extraordinary. Super modern and always clean. The location in Bellavista is perfect for any activities or just for grabbing some food in the street. Considering the cheap price this hostel is really one of the best in Santiago!

    This hostel is just amazing! Extremely clean, with toilette and shower inside the room, very comfortable beds and nice staff! Probably the best hostel in town (I have tried a few). The area around is also nice with many restaurants, quite local, but still walking distance from the city center. It felt safe and it is a 10 min walking distance from the bus stop to get to the airport (in 30 mins). Highly reccomended!

    The staff were very friendly and the hostel is in a relatively safe area of town. There’s an amazing vegan burger and milkshake place nearby, Vurger Joint, that we ate at a few times, which was a nice perk. The beds were super soft and comfortable. There was free coffee and tea. The value for money was good. It was really close to the metro, which is really safe and cheap, which was convenient and a big plus.
