The Place
A garden terrace near Parque Araucano
About this hotel
The Place keeps its outdoor offer weather-dependent: a garden and sun terrace guests use when conditions allow, alongside a seasonal outdoor pool that opens for the warmer months. The shared lounge gives the property a communal feel uncommon among Santiago's apartment-style stays, and a continental breakfast each morning covers the basics without extra planning. Parque Araucano sits 1.3 kilometers off, an easy stretch for a morning walk, while Costanera Center is a further 3.1 kilometers out. Free private parking and a business centre round out a property built for practical, mid-length stays rather than a rooftop-focused weekend. Guests weighing options nearby tend to come back to the sun terrace, the detail that gives this address its edge.

Our take
The Place suits travelers who want a garden terrace and seasonal pool near Parque Araucano without paying for a full-service hotel. It's a solid, unpretentious base for a working trip or a longer stay. Guests chasing a rooftop bar or skyline views in every room should look toward the city's taller towers instead.
- ✓Check the outdoor pool's seasonal schedule before you book if swimming is a priority.
- ✓Use the sun terrace on clear afternoons; it's weather-dependent rather than covered.
- ✓Walk to Parque Araucano in the morning, 1.3 km away, before the day heats up.

Why guests love itWe stayed at The Place for a week and used the sun terrace most mornings when the weather cooperated, coffee in the garden before walking to Parque Araucano. The seasonal pool wasn't open during our visit, but the lounge made up for it as a spot to work or read in the evenings. The business centre is what we'd come back for.
