Location and Getting here

Our Hostel location is a privilege. You will not find a better location in Santiago.

Walking distance to:

 

  • Local transportation, metro station (Baquedano) and bus lines in Plaza Italia (heart of the city)
  • Bellavista neighborhood where you can find Pablo Neruda´s house, restaurants, bars and clubs. 
  • San Cristobal hill with amazing lookouts to the whole city and cable cars which take you to the peak of the hill. 
  • Plaza de Armas (Santiago´s historical district) 
  • La Moneda (Chilean Presidential Palace) 
  • Barrio Lastarria & Bellas Artes full of Restaurants, bars, Museums & Cafes all surrounded by Parks & colonial neoclassic Architecture. 
  •  And also 10 minutes away from Providencia, Santiago´s most sophisticated area

 

Getting Here From The Bus station/Airport:

From the Bus station: From the metro station take Line 1 (red line) to the Baquedano metro station, or pick any bus on Alameda (Av. Libertador Bernardo O´Higgins) that says Plaza Italia. As you can see in the map above we are only a couple of blocks away from Plaza Italia and Baquedano metro station (we recommend you print the map and these instructions). For reference Coronel Santiago Bueras is parallel to Merced st. and in between Irene Morales and Estados Unidos streets. This is the cheapest way to get to our hostel.

From the airport: You can pick up a taxi, the fee should be aprox US$30.00 or you can also pick up a transfer TransVip for US$10 aprox (If you want we can book you a taxi or transfer directly).
