Fodor's Expert Review The Aubrey
Constitución 317, Santiago, Santiago Metropolitan, 7520360, Chile Fodor's Choice
One of the city's favorite luxury boutique hotels, this hotel was formed in 2009 when two 1920s mansions next to Cerro San Cristóbal were joined together, giving it ample outdoor space, including a pool and an indoor-outdoor patio bar. The exterior is impressive, built in a revival of the Spanish Colonial Mission style, with arches and columns throughout, while contemporary touches inside include designer Valdes chairs on private terraces in the lobby. Most rooms enjoy an airy open plan concept and are bespoke designed, sporting vibrant hues and textiles.
