We spent 2 nights and loved it. The staff were great and very helpful with things to see around Santiago. It's very close to the centre of town and Bellavista. The room was small but exactly what we were after and we had a private bathroom. It's very well priced and great value. I would definitely recommend.

Hotel was a really good value. The rooms were clean and a good size. The location of the hotel is very central in the city. Really easy to get around with the subway just a few blocks away. Close to good bars and restaurants in the Bella Vista and surrounding neighborhoods. The staff at the hotel spoke English and was... More

Great location, accommodating of our 2 young sons, yummy (and healthy) breakfast, clean and comfy rooms. Our room (second floor corner room for 4) was noisy (traffic and street dogs) due to double glazing not being installed in the corner window... but all together a nice stay.

First night ever in South America and terribly jet lagged. Clean and comfortable room and brilliant double glazing so our room is peaceful. Only the floorboards are noisy! The staff are very helpful and have organised an early breakfast and taxi for us, as well as details of the time change tonight. They seem to communicate well with each other... More

First time in South America and Santiago is the first stop. We chose Hostal Rio Amazonas for its location, the price, and the promise of help for two non-Spanish speakers let loose in a big Latin American city. It was the right choice. The staff were very friendly and helpful, full of restaurant and tourist tips, and ready to make... More

We enjoyed the two nights we stayed at Rio Amazonas. The room was clean, the common rooms were very comfortable and welcoming, and the staff very helpful. Even though our room overlooked a busy street, it was quiet when the windows were closed -- and it was cool enough to close the windows. (If we couldn't have closed the windows,... More
