We really enjoy the food but the the real draw for me is sitting at a table by the window looking down at the ocean crashing against the rocks below. One previous review complained about the place being shabby. I suppose it is a little tired but I tend to over look worn furniture and fittings as long as it... More

CAP DUCAL Shabby, rundown and seriously in need of investment! OVERVIEW: Overhanging the Pacific Ocean, the ocean liner like Cap Ducal was once one of Viña del Mar’s finest and most romantic hotels. Sadly that time has long passed. After a very pleasant lunch at Casas de Bosque in the Casablanca Valley, we decided to spend the evening at the... More

A unique,old world feeling. Looks like an ocean liner from long ago inside. Old wood interior,with spiral staircases up to rooms and in the dining room. Also has an old world elevator if you wish. Rooms for most part are huge. 2 bathrooms in some. Jacuzzi in some . Almost all are over the ocean with fabulous views. Costs average... More

Jan 2, 2010 | Trip type: Couples We have stayed here four different times over the last decade, and also at the Cap Ducal in Santiago, so we have huge family loyalty to this hotel. It serves the best seafood, in our estimation, in all of Vina, especially any of the congrio or corvina dishes, and in the most romantic... More

This is a very unique hotel. It is very much like being on a ship with the water below and a fantastic view. It's more freighter than cruise ship. It was built in the 1930s and has a interesting history. The rooms need a facelift but the staff are wonderful and they were a great help to us.

Dirty carpets, very small bathrooms, smells like fish, needs refurbishing. Spend a bit more and go somewhere else. It does have great views and friendly front desk.

We would love to stay here again. Perfect location, price everything.

The Cap Ducal has quantities of charm and originality and is very comfortable. All the rooms have stupendous views of the ocean and the coastline. If you can afford it, book one of the junior suites, which have balconies out over the ocean. We loved having breakfast on our balcony. This is an old hotel, and some of the carpet... More

This is my first time to Vina Del Mar and I did rely on Trip Advisor write ups for guidance. Just the photos of Cap were enticing enough and I wasn't disappointed. The hotel is really, really neat and the service was excellent. It is an older hotel so if you are a snob you may just want to go... More
