A place to soothe the senses with wonderful food and the gentle scenery of the lower Andes. La Calma de Rita has character and personality with a lovely garden. We spent a delightful three days. Without a car we enjoyed Pirque visiting Concha y Toro vineyard, the Lapislazuli handmade jewellers next door, and the Rio Clarillo natural park with guide... More

We have just spent 3 nights in room Santa Antonieta, it's gorgeous and has a small terrace, ideal for sipping a Pisco Sour at the sun goes down. I wasn't entirely sure what to expect with this place after seeing pictures of the stools with ladies legs! However, the decoration is quirky but very tasteful, Cristian has decorated the place...

From the complimentary pisco sour on arrival to the unexpected lift back into town when we were leaving, Cristian was the perfect host. We had a superb Sunday lunch, followed by a spin on the bikes that are available for guests to borrow. The hotel is nestled at the foot of the Andes so cycling along the country roads to... More

My wife and I were looking for somewhere to stay that was close to Santiago where we could visit some wineries and ride some horses; after searching on TripAdvisor we stumbled across Pirque and La Calma de Rita which ticked all of those boxes. Cristian is a warm host who not only has a wonderful, quirky hotel (check out some... More

I'm in La Calma de Rita, in Pirque, just outside Santiago de Chile. Not in the city center, but nicely in the countryside. The owner is Christian, a very friendly German and Spanish speaking man, who can cook like the best. The meat is tender and not too greasy. It floats in a sauce of white, large beans with mushrooms,... More

For me and my husband, this was the perfect place to stay, although it is hard to find a good or easy way of describing it. It was charming, funky romantic and idiosyncratic, and definitely not for everyone, but if you are in the Maipo Valley to visit wineries, and if you are a “foodie,” and if you take delight... More

We had an excellent time staying at this very charming boutique hotel. Every details is made with love from the owner and his team. You find fresh roses placed in every corner of the hotel. The interior is very original and the garden area is so peaceful and nice kept! then the food was so delicious that we tried the... More

I love this kind of place - arty, out in the countryside just outside the city, out in the east Maipo Valley near wineries, not fancy but, heaps of character. This place was recommended by Santa Rita Winery staff – very helpful! Cristian is the German/Chilian owner and speaks great English. This has been his project for many years: taking... More

Our host, Cristian, took excellent care of us, even moving an extra bed into our little suite. My son had not been feeling well and this was a quiet place for him to have some calm, down time! The food was excellent and we lacked for absolutely nothing. The room was very homey with a small balcony where we could... More
