Hotel Magnolia is a boutique hotel in central Santiago which skilfully blends the traditional with the contemporary.  

This striking and elegant boutique hotel is well placed for exploring the historic downtown of Santiago and the arty Lastarria neighbourhood which has excellent restaurants and a lively street scene. The delightful Santa Lucia Hill park, favourite among couples for romantic rendez-vous, is just a stone’s throw away.

Originally a large family residence it’s been beautifully renovated and its public areas cleverly blend original styles with an ultra-modern finish, each feature successfully offsetting the other: exposed brick walls, a showpiece marble stairway, stained glass windows, black-and-white tiles and suspended glass floors. The guest rooms are ultra-contemporary. There’s also a lobby bar and restaurant for lunch and dinner. A particularly nice feature is the hotel’s rooftop terrace which has a second bar and good views – great for a pisco sour at sunset on a warm summer evening in Santiago.

What our clients say

  • Most Memorable Moment?: For me, Torres del Paine as it appeared and disappeared through the clouds. The Explora hotel is in a fantastic setting and the views of the mountains…

    JM, Hatfield Nov 2017
  • Patagonia- exceeded very high expectations. JLA were great.

    AH, Northampton Mar 2018
  • Highlight?: Easter Island - amazing place - very good food, hardly any tourists and extraordinary history/statues etc. We could easily have stayed an extra night there. I would strongly recommend…

    CK, Ashtead Apr 2018
  • Chile is a very safe, friendly and beautiful country. 

    CP, Budleigh Salterton Oct 2012
  • We loved all of southern Patagonia but four days at the Explora was undoubtedly the highlight.

    NM, London Mar 2017
  • Most Memorable Moment?: Very difficult! Vulcan Osorno, Moon Valley (even if not part of the arranged itinerary!), Tatio Geysers, Easter Island statues...
