This is such a beautiful hotel, the rooms were stunning and everyone was so friendly starting from the desk to the people working at the restaurant. Location of the hotel is just perfect to walk to Gabriela’s Mistral museum and take a stroll at the plaza. The food at the restaurant was excellent with detailed presentation of each plate and so delicious. My wife and I will definitely return and we recommend this anyone coming to Vicuña!

Byron was very helpful in getting us checked in and sharing information about the property and its amenities. We enjoyed our stay and found the family suite spacious. Breakfast was delicious (they allow seconds of any dish), street parking in front of the hotel entrance was easy. Facility is charming. The only oddity is the very tall sink height in the bathroom. Other than that, we found the location excellent and the staff warm and friendly. The resident cat, Loy, was a charmer.

An oasis of calm. Stay there!

We arrived to an excellent welcome, a tour of the hotel and room. We could not have felt more at home, a treat after being on the road for 6 weeks. As we came more familiar with the hotel, restaurant and bar, the welcoming and friendly spirit of all of the staff team was at the fore. The sympathetic design of the room and communal areas again is just relaxing. The town of Vicuna is also a treat in chilled atmosphere. We booked one night, stayed two only because we had to be somewhere. We wish we could have stayed longer. Juan was particularly engaging and great English too.

Beautiful boutique hotel with original details (wood floors, high ceilings etc) set around two courtyards and indoor/outdoor restaurant. The bed was comfortable and we really enjoyed the soaking tub in the beautiful spacious bathroom. Lovely pool (unheated) which unfortunately we didn’t have time to use and apparently two hot tubs you can reserve (they were full during our stay). The Aloe restaurant is nice and stays open pretty late which is helpful if you’re doing an astronomy tour. The staff were very friendly and arranged a packed breakfast for us when we had to check out early to catch a flight. We regret we only had one night here and would certainly return!

Our 5 night stay at Solar Madriaga exceeded expectations. The staff was courteous and accommodating, including housekeeping, who did our laundry twice and the contracted transfer driver, Ruben. Communication via What's App prior to our visit was responsive, welcoming, and informative and helped with Spanish to English translation. The food at Aloe was fresh and delicious, and the drinks were both beautiful and of the highest quality. Both wait staff and bar tenders were great. Favorites included the veggie empanadas and the Elqui Pisco Mule. The property was tranquil and very quiet and all the historical aspects of its 100+ year old history were a delight - as were the lovely kitties in the courtyard. We did experience an unforeseen issue related to the age of the property on our last night, but the owners responded almost immediately to our report of a problem, and accommodated us to our satisfaction, quickly and with grace and courtesy. I would highly recommend this property for a peaceful stay in Vicuña and the Elqui Valley.

GORGEOUS boutique well designed hotel

We absolutely loved our stay at this gorgeous boutique hotel. The recent renovation has been done with such an attention to detail and stunning designer fabrics and fixtures. Beds are very comfortable and the restaurant is also fabulous for both breakfast and dinner. Both courtyards are beautiful and Diego gave us great history about the property and area in perfect English. He is a fun story teller! One room had air conditioning and the other did not. We truly wished we could have stayed another night. Highly recommend.

Lovely hotel

Very nice historic hotel. The positives included the big bed, nice bathroom, decent breakfast, good pool area and nice courtyard area. The staff were excellent - spoke great English too which was a bonus for us. Nice quiet location in Vicuña. The main negative was the lack of air conditioning despite it being advertised as included. Only half of the rooms (the pool view rooms) seem to have working air con so our room, whilst very nice, was uncomfortably hot. A fan was provided which helped. I would give it a perfect score if there was air con.

Not soooo good

The hotel is good. Beautiful and cozy. The first floor room is dark and there is no Window, just de entrance door without privacy coz every onther guest at the restaurant can see you inside. The breakfast options were rather scarce and so were the portions! (And you can not ask for more). The bill at the check out didn´t match the cost reflected by hotels.com ( they reduced part of the price in spite of I had pay the full price as fixed by hotels.com). Oh, there were costs that we found rather strange such as tipping for a (short) breakfast that is included in the price… so…

Of all the accommodations we rented during our 3 weeks in Chile, this was the only one that contacted us to prepare for our arrival. Upon arrival, the person at the reception offered us a tour of our room and then the accommodation, which is sensational. It was clearly going to be the best of our stay. One of the reasons we also chose this accommodation was the Aloe restaurant, which had vegan options on their menu. We were hungry and went straight to the restaurant, but unfortunately, there weren’t real vegan options. There was either cheese or eggs used for the bread. The waitress was very kind and honest with us and replaced the bread with rice cakes. We used the laundry service. Impeccable. We used the pool and we were alone. The reception always helped us with our questions with a smile.
