Concierge "Design is paramount in the ample rooms, too, where floor-to-ceiling windows, fabric-paneled walls, angular furniture, and a plethora of gadgets underscore a masculine sensibility."
Fodor's "Located in the heart of the fashionable El Golf business and restaurant district, South America's first W hotel opened in mid-2009, setting a new standard of luxury in Santiago." Full review
Travel + Leisure "In the El Golf district of Chile’s capital, the ebullient Tony Chi (the designer behind the restaurants at Park Hyatt Sydney and Mandarin Oriental New York) is responsible for witty flourishes." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The most exciting hotel to open in Chile in a decade, W Hotel offers fabulous, cutting-edge decor designed to impress even the most jaded traveler."
Condé Nast Traveler81.9
"Chi has transformed a whopping chunk of office space with frosted-glass and taffeta partitions, perspective-teasing alpaca ceilings and mirrored walls, and a treasure trove of decorative objects." Full review
Rough Guide "In an eyecatching skyscraper, The W is a glamorous, achingly hip hotel."
Star Service "It is the cornerstone of Isidora 3000, a glassy high-rise, mixed-use complex that includes a convention center, boutique office space and high-end shops. " Full review

Many rooms (spread through various categories) have windows between the guest rooms and baths, and privacy seekers should avoid these rooms upon check-in.

Frommer's "The Park Plaza calls itself a boutique hotel, but the uniformed bellhops and traditional decor (not to mention 104 rooms) make it a midsize hotel known for its personalized service." Full review
Fodor's "The color scheme, in rich burgundy and dark green with cream accents, extends to the adjoining Park Lane restaurant, which combines Chilean and French cuisine." Full review

"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
DK Eyewitness "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
