A very safe area to wander during the day and take in the wonderful array of coloured facades and street art. Couple that with a large choice of dining establishments and is a wonderful bohemiam feel. At night, many more clubs open to bring the area alive. A fun part of Santiago.

Those who do the round trips like Buenos Aires, Montevideo, Santiago will find this barrio and the one called Palermo Soho in Buenos Aires very similar. Bars, cafes, restaurants, trendy, hype. Interesting visit.

This is a colourful place, a relatively clean community with nice homes and plenty of restaurants, cake/coffee cafes, ice creameries etc. good except we went for dinner. I wish I had taken notice of where we ate as the food was the worst, the driest pasta ever tasted and not what I ordered, Shame, as it was a waste of time, money and a good night out. So be careful where you go, and if there’s not that many in the place then there’s obviously a reason!

Day after New Year's eve dirty and reaked of urine.
Lots of restaurants and bars.
Some cool street art and nice boutique hotels, check out Bellavista Patio when you are in the area.

Really lovely part of town. The artisan and Bohemian district of Santiago, a great place for restaurants and bars, fun shops, interesting people, old and well maintained architecture. Really worth visiting and spending a few hours either just walking, or hopping between pubs and restaurants.

Tourists are targetted for robberies. Be very careful. It has great restaurants and a laid back feel, but keep your belongings attached to you.

We came here expecting an interesting hip area and found a neighborhood full of sleazy bars fully of sketchy people, maybe some hookers? We did feel safe, but on a busy night, watch your wallets! No place seemed pleasant enough to have a drink in. Loud music and a lot of drunks. Some interesting street art, but covered over with graffiti tags.

You can find almost everything in this neighborhood. Great restaurants, 5 stars hotels, hostels, clubs, fancy bars, dive bars. You name it. A great place to just walk around, have lunch or dinner and get a drink before going out.
I definitely recommend staying there in your visit to Santiago. It is also very central and close to other interesting parts/neighborhoods of Santiago.

The area is rather run down and looks like something from the 70's era. Plenty of brightly coloured restaurants, night clubs and bars along Pio Nono and Constitucion of various standards and within easy walking distance from the Baquedano subway station. Go a few streets away from these main streets and the buildings are covered in graffiti and not very attractive. The Bellavista area possibly suits the younger travellers more that the mature travellers. The nearby Barrio Lastarria offers an alternative location for those mature travellers who do not want to be in Santiago's CBD but want good restaurants and hotels near the subway system and the various monuments and museums of this city.

I love this area. I found it very bohemian and also very cool. You have many options to dinner out and get some drinks.
Santiago is safe and people was so nice.

Hola, me voy a hospedar en The Bella Vista Hostel con una amiga de Lunes 30/10 al jueves 02/11, me puse un poco nerviosa el tema inseguridad que veo comentan. Que calles debemos evitar? Estaremos en Dardinac y Constitucion. El martes por la noche vamos a La Feria que queda a unas cuadras, tipo 5 am sera lo suficientemente seguro para volver caminando? Saludos.

We have a 7 hour layover in Santiago and are looking for some ideas to pass the time. Would a visit to Barrio Bellvista be a good option to spend a couple of hours, get something to eat, etc? Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks

Hello Colorado. Great walking, food and drink. The problem you will have is choosing which one. Ask for a LAN shuttle to town if you are flying with them.. Maybe free transportation. Enjoy it's better than the airport

Hello,
We are three sixty something ladies coming from Canada next February for a week or two (yes, we love to plan ahead!) We like the old culture and architecture and typically rent apartments as we aren't fond of hotels. The Barrios of Bellavista and Lastarria look quite unique and appealing. Any suggestions you could give us would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Carol in Vancouver

We stayed in Lastarria. It was very nice. Walk to restaurants, cafe, shopping and Metro stations.
We also stayed in an apartment. Huérfanos 547 16th floor, Santiago, Región Metropolitana, Chile. This is a secure complex with several buildings, doorman, laundry facilities. There is a market just next door. Very nice, modern and close to everything.
I also agree about Barrio Italia. Best place to spend an afternoon for shopping and lunch.
Enjoy your trip!

Hola, voy a parar unos dias en santiago y queria hospedarme en el barrio de Bellavista, pero me dijeron que es peligroso, que hay peleas de borrachos y robos. Me gustaria oir mas opiniones. Saludos!

Es una zona de Santiago de mucho comercio, bares, turistas, bastante transitado. En efecto debes de tener cuidado ya que por ser bastante bohemio sabemos que el alcohol afecta nuestra naturaleza humana y desencadena nuestro ser primitivo... lo bueno es que es céntrico y alrededores llenos de lugares que visitar... Si te gusta el dinamismo, viajas sola por diversión o con amigos, vale es una opción y a tener cuidado. De lo contrario es preferible sólo visitarlo para tomar unas cervezas y divertirse.
Espero ayude,
Slds,
Patrick
