Fodor's Expert Review Valle Nevado

Farellones, Santiago Metropolitan, Chile

The resort's most extravagantly priced lodge provides ski-in–ski-out convenience. Rooms are larger than at the other two hotels, and all have balconies. In the off season, it's possible to take a trek by horse or on foot from here to the base of El Plomo mountain, which is more than 5,000 meters (16,400 feet) above sea level. The hotel only opens during the winter season.

PROS

  • close to El Plomo mountain
  • free Wi-Fi
  • rooms have balconies

CONS

  • expensive, particularly if you plan to be out on the slopes all day
  • restaurants get busy and require reservations
  • slow Wi-Fi connection
