Fabulous view from the rooms. The breakfast was generous and we could enjoy it on the terrace. Staff are friendly and helpful. Good shower with hot water.

When our initial booking elsewhere was cancelled we chose this property because it had secure parking (parking is not easy in Valparaiso!), and while that doubled the price for the night, the choice turned out to be a good one, as this is a nice, modern hotel. Our rooms did not have views unlike other rooms, but that didn't mar the experience. Some travelers complain about the creaky floorboards as being annoying - we heard it, but didn't find it annoying. Rooms were a bit tight on floor space, but with a tall ceiling felt spacious. Breakfast was better than average. The outside may look old, but inside it has been fitted out in a modern, pleasant style. Nice staff too. And it is close to the attractions of Valparaiso - just walk down the road and you'll find them.

The room and bed were very comfortable - we had two rooms, one with a view of the street and a large suite with a gorgeous view over the port. Breakfast was good, and the staff was responsive to emails and requests. Wifi was good. there is a nice Italian restaurant right across the street. The receptionist gave us a good map and introduction to the area when we arrived.

The hotel is very modern and has a beautiful interior. The balcony has an amazing view of the city. They provide free tea and coffee throughout the day and a very nice continental breakfast. The location is on a hill overlooking the city, but it's easy to find transportation to downtown. The staff was very friendly. They let us keep our bags there on the last day while we went out sightseeing a little more.

If you're staying alone, the walk back from the centre might be a little too far after dark (not a dislike, just something to bear in mind). The room was very spartan, so it's a good, clean, reliable place rather than a luxury aesthetic experience -- but I thought that was fine, because the price is reasonable. I would stay here again :)
Lovely staff, beautiful building, and (in my opinion) the perfect location: a short walk to the main bar/restaurant area, but far enough to be quiet in the evenings. Great sea view from the dining room. Secure, onsite parking at no extra cost. Oh, and the room and linens were VERY clean and the bed was incredibly comfortable!

“Valparaiso has now become one of my favorite places in the world!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
My husband and I are fairly fit and we enjoy long walks. For those not in the practice of walking a lot, there are taxis that we saw regularly climbing the hill to deliver locals to their homes and communities. The only annoyance in walking was the presence of many stray dogs and dog poop. Thankfully, the dogs appeared healthy, leading me to believe they are communally fed. Being vigilant about avoiding dog poop and broken sidewalks is strongly advised!
Our room at the Ultramar Hotel had amazing views of the ocean and of the residential communities that surrounded us in the hills of Valparaiso. At night we were able to enjoy the city lights and the bells ringing in a distant church. I loved walking up and down the hills daily and visiting Pablo Neruda's home, La Sebastiana, within a 25- minute walking distance that was largely on flat ground. I further enjoyed all the walking tours of Valparaiso. Our guides were very knowledgeable about the history of Valparaiso, the architecture and its people. The walking tour of Mural Art was fantastic! The murals are fantastic and made me feel like I had walked into a magical Wonderland.

“Satisfactory,”

You need to be a good walker to get around Valparaiso is built on a very steep slope going down to the sea and we were further up this slope than we expected. You always walk down to get anywhere, then you need to walk back up a steep slope. Probably about 10 to 15 minutes walking to restaurants, ATM, etc. Interesting walk though. Being up away from the hustle and bustle does have some benefits too.
The breakfast, the layout of the communal area. The views are superb. The building is an interesting refit of an older building. Generally quiet.

We liked the view, the staff, the free secure parking, the buffet breakfast with eggs and fruit, the quiet location, and fairly easy walk to the major tourist sites. We found the open design of the public areas and a large deck over looking the city attractive. We did not notice any unusual amount of noise from other guests. We would definitely stay again.

we got robbed of all our belongings as the hotel asked us at 11 am, to park our car on the street the time that we went for lunch. Nobody talks about it but the hotel is located in a dangerous area and they should have allowed us to keep our car for a few hours, parked inside the hotel garage. We would not have been vandeluzed and robbed of everything we had: computer and clothes. Was very painful and the most frustrating was that the hotel parking was totally enpty, also it would not have make any difference to them... but for us we left with no other option then to drive 3,000 kms with 2 broken windows and an empty car. Think twice before you choose this place....
It was a nice place but we got robbed!
