AUBREY HOTEL BOUTIQUE, Santiago

Aubrey Hotel Boutique - A restored Spanish colonial mansion with heated pool in Santiago's cultural heart

Located in the vibrant Bellavista district, this English-owned Santiago hotel occupies two restored Spanish colonial mansions formerly belonging to the Duran political dynasty. The Aubrey features 15 individually furnished rooms, each equipped with 300-thread cotton bedding, LCD TVs, and glass-enclosed walk-in showers. The property's heated outdoor pool includes three massage jets, surrounded by sun loungers, day beds, and Greek-style stone pillars. A complimentary buffet breakfast serves made-to-order eggs, seasonal fruits, and homemade breads, while the piano lounge offers complimentary pisco sours amid leather and neon-pink decor. Four pavilion rooms showcase animal-themed murals by local artists and include rainforest showers overlooking private patios. The Aubrey sits at the base of Parque Metropolitano, just 0.3 miles from Barrio Bellavista's restaurants and the Funicular Station, with Baquedano metro station a few blocks south.
