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."

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

Lonely Planet "Why can't all B&Bs be this good? Squishy sofas in the living room and wooden steamer chairs in a plant-filled patio invite you to make yourself at home." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Charming B&B on a quiet street, a few blocks away from restaurants. Decorated in French country style with earth tones and local art, and cozy guest rooms that are on the small side."
Rough Guide "A charming eight-room B&B in a 1940s-era home on a peaceful street: each room is unique, but all are supremely tasteful."
Frommer's "It's heavy on Old World charm, with antiques and quiet reading spaces, but squeaky floors and tiny bathrooms too...it’s a small but warm and friendly oasis with a good location.
