In order to get into the hotel we had to go up many steep steps from the street. Had we known, we would not have booked a room there. The streets were narrow and very steep so the location was not a good choice for us (we are in our 70's). The gentleman who checked us in was very gracious when we indicated that we needed to move to a different hotel. He arranged for us to get transportation and helped the driver with our luggage. Of course, we covered the cost of the room.

A stunning property with real charm. Fabulous room. A perfect stay. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Our hotel manager was warm, friendly, helpful and accommodating when our flight was cancelled. The one who replaced him on his day off was a bit grumpy though!

Our stay at the Somercales Hotel was comfortable and it is located in the most beautiful neighbourhood of Valparaiso. Also, they serve a great breakfast each morning. But what we loved the best is the staff. The people that work at this hotel are so kind and warm. They really make you feel at home and do everything possible to make your stay enjoyable!

Good location within the old town. We arrived early and the host was very accommodating to allow us early check-in. Rooms and bathrooms were simple and clean but could do with a refresh

The Thomas Somerscales is a charming boutique hotel, The location is very convenient for sightseeing and walking to wonderful restaurants. The outside porch areas were so welcoming to sit with a Pisco sour and relax after a day of walking! We felt like we were invited into a historic home. Hector at the front desk was so pleasant and helpful, always greeted us with a smile. The breakfast was a lovely , fresh fruit, fresh juice, cold meats and pastries, served in a vintage dining room. Our stay there was fantastic and would highly recommend this hotel!

Great Boutique!! Go for it!
Very interesting boutique with the old British style. It is fun to hear the wood singing with someone walking on it. The room is clean and bed is comfortable. The terrace is a perfect area to see fireworks and sunrise (if there is no cloud). Breakfast is well prepared in the dining room every morning. Location is good as well, right in the historic center. I would like to stay here again if I come back.

Gorgeous hotel in great part of town!
We stayed in Valparaiso for one night during a recent trip to Chile and loved staying at this hotel! It was an old mansion that belonged to an English artist, and you could feel the warm spirit of those old days coming through. The staff was very nice and welcoming and the breakfast was delicious. The hotel is situated in an excellent area very close to great restaurants and cafes, and had pretty views from the windows. We would love to stay at this hotel should we ever return to the area!

Great experience in a very well located hotel, near many restaurants and well connected to the main sights of the city. A special appreciation for the great staff and in particular for Hilding Carson, a knowledgeable host and wonderful raconteur. Room was spacious and comfortable.

Beautiful hotel, comfortable with charm
This small hotel combines the charm of an elegant late 19th century house with the comfort of modernized windows and bathroom. The staff is extremely welcoming and helpful, the service is superb. Excellent breakfast in a very pretty setting. The location is on one of the nicest hills of the city, very close to interesting sites such as the Museo des Bellas Artes. The downtown is a short walk and short ride down one of the ascensors. Some rooms have a lovely view of Valparaiso Bay.

valpariso er et besøg værd men det er oplevet hurt
vi havde kun en overnatning. Blev mødt af enhjælpsom ung mand der talte engelsk.Han checkede os hurtigt ind og bar vores store bagage op på vores værelse. Alt er gammelt og historisk på dette sted. Der var stor hjælpsomhed med at foreslå gode resturanter og udflugtsmål. morgenmaden stod på bordet da vi kom ned den var fin og der var hjemmepresset hindbær juice. rigtig god kaffemm. Byen var ganske speciel lidt af en hippi by fyldt med farvede huse overtegnet med graffiti. små forretnnger der solgte ald mulg hjemmelavede ting. Der er mange små resturanter til fornuftige priser og god mad. Mange musik barer og gang i den til sent. et døgn er nk så har man set det vigtigste.
