On our recent trip to Chile, our last city to experience was the capital, Santiago, and we stayed at the Hotel Diego de Almagro Santiago Centro, situated extremely centrally on Avenida Libertador Bernardo O'Higgins. The hotel is comfortable, our room on the 9th floor overlooking Avenida Libertador Bernardo O'Higgins was spacious, with 2 large beds. The hotel was well-maintained and the staff extremely helpful. Hotel Diego de Almagro Santiago Centro is an excellent choice for travellers visiting Santiago as it is walking distance form many of the major attractions, including the magnificent Santiago Metropolitan Cathedral and the adjoining square, La Moneda Presidential Palace, San Cristobal Hill, Santa Lucia Hill, Chilean Museum of Pre-Columbian Arts (Museo Chileno de Arte Precolombino), Plaza de Armas, and San Francisco Church, amongst many other interesting cultural and historic attractions. Also, importantly, the hotel has a supermarket situated right next door for any essentials or snacks or food or drink one may be looking for. But what really created a special experience for us at the Hotel Diego de Almagro Santiago Centro, was LEO, the fine gentleman at the reception (Recepcion). Leo, with his trademark smile, welcomed us and made us feel at home from the word go. He gave us our room on the 9th floor with spectacular views of the city. He was our go to person for all information, and expertly guided us to local restaurants and eateries, making extra certain to give us safety trips as we walked or travelled around Santiago. He always had a smile for us, enquiring about our day, each time we arrived back at the hotel. I must also mention that his other team members were very courteous and helpful. The bonus of staying at the Hotel Diego de Almagro Santiago Centro, was that i got to jump into my first international marathon experience, as that Sunday morning there was a marathon event happening right on Avenida Libertador Bernardo O'Higgins !! We enjoyed our concluding stay in Chile all thanks to Hotel Diego de Almagro Santiago Centro and especially to Leo.
