We have just returned from a two night stay at the Hotel Pombal and quite honestly could not fault it. It is in a very handy location the rooms are tastefully furnished and above all very clean. The breakfast was very good indeed and the staff all very nice. We had a fantastic view of the city from our bedroom which had two large french windows. I have to add that maybe if you have a room at the front of the hotel - even though it is overlooking a very nice park - the traffic noise might bother you.

Santiago is a delightful city with plenty to do and see for a couple of days. We were very lucky with the weather - I do believe they have quite a lot of rain in that area (I've never seen so many umberella stands - every cafe/shop even the hotel rooms) the hotel will loan you one if it is needed.
