Should you choose to leave, however, you'll need to take a taxi because the location at the head of a crazy traffic loop makes it difficult to walk anywhere from here.

Huge windows let in great city views, but ask for a higher floor to guarantee those picturesque snow-capped Andes.
Lonely Planet

"This 104-room business hotel is located in the Providencia neighborhood on a busy tree-lined street." Full review
Lonely Planet
"Dripping with good taste, the Park Plaza can be a bit much (witness the doorman in his gold-piped cape and top hat, for example). It is all part of the luxury package." Full review

"The quiet residential location just two blocks away from the attractions of Avenida Providencia is a plus, and rooms are quite spacious."
Star Service
"This hotel is two blocks from one of Santiago's busiest areas, where Avenida Pedro de Valdivia crosses Avenida 11 de Septiembre, but its location along a tree-lined avenue mitigates the nearby bustle." Full review
