I liked that it was right across the street from the beach. The free breakfast buffet was excelent and the Porta restaurant next to the hotel was amazing. There was nothing I did not like about the place. Some might say the hotel look might be outdated but because it so clean and prestine that it did not phase me.

Tired but clean.

The hotel was clean and comfortable but it needs a renovation. The breakfast was great. The location was also good because we lucked into being close to the Festival which was a surprise for us.

By the Beach

This is the place to come if you want a relaxing spot by the beach in La Serena. We enjoyed using the sun loungers and outdoor swimming pool. Breakfast buffet included a good variety of fruit, yogurt, cakes, scrambled eggs, toast, juice and coffee or tea. Staff was friendly and helpful with booking tours. You can walk or ride bikes all along the Beach Promenade from the Lighthouse to Port Coquiam. The surf is really too rough for swimming in here but people play in the shallow part .Great seafood restaurant,Portado's, right next door. This hotel is a good spot for your beach holiday.

Good location, easy to city

Not a bad place for the money, but it is getting old and needs some remodeling. Staff was very nice and helpful. Linens and towels were some of the best we have ever had. My wife would love a pillow like that at home.

A nice place

Just stayed one night on the way south. Somewhat pricey compared to what we been paying elsewhere but I realize prices are higher here since it is a big tourist spot. Very comfortable and spacious room, good breakfast. Plenty of parking space.

Estancia de templada baja.

Creo que fue una época no muy buena. No estaba funcionando las instalaciones como deben. Atención de la recepción no fue muy agradable. Pero la calidad de comida de restaurante anexo es muy bueno. Tiene excelente platos.

Muy buena ubicación frente al mar

Buena ubicación. Buenas instalaciones y servicios. Pileta climatizada. estacionamiento techado gratuito. Lamentablemente la habitación tenía el acondicionador de aire descompuesto y no lo solucionaron a pesar de dos reclamos. Afortunadamente solo fue necesario dos de las ocho noches de alojamiento ya que en enero refresca al atardecer.

Muy buen hotel

Exelente en todo tipo de aspecto, lo único malo (y que pese a estar muy muy cerca del famoso faro) y que a la vez no tiene que ver con el hotel como tal, es la fachada externa con la Rivera de la playa, esta muy apagada, debería hacerse algo por arreglar toda esa zona costera, hacerla más llamativa, eso atraeria más al publico/turista.
