Just as almost everybody else has said, the neighborhood isn’t nice. There is a bohemian neighborhood a short seven minute walk. A certain name change to Le Meridien, they still have a lot to do to bring this hotel up to Marriott standards.

Not the safest area but had very easy access to the subway. The hotel’s sparkly hour was very nice with the opportunity to meet other patrons…and the staff was the very best!!

Wonderful hotel and staff.
We really like this hotel. One of the best so far. It is very close to the main tourist attractions, which allowed us to walk to. However; what we enjoyed the most was the hotel staff. They were so polite and ready to help us with our needs and answering our questions. The two concierge/ bell men were especially helpful in telling is what to visit and how to get there. They also continuously reminded us to be careful for pick pockets and they were right as we met people that were robbed during their stay. Highly recommend to all travelling to Santiago to stay at this hotel.

Don’t book this through hotels.com if you need to make any adjustments. They let me know that because it was third party there was nothing they can do.

The building is old and outdated. In the process of been remodeled. The carpets are dirty and stain. Even though the sheets and towels are clean, the whole building look nasty because the carpets.

Location is excellent; 5 min walk to the subway and dozens of bus stops at your doorstep. The area around the hotel is quite rundown; business closed. The closest restaurant area is 15 min away. The property is in the middle of restoration; will belong to Marriott as of December. The rooms are certainly not in best shape. Dirty carpet and dated furniture.

4/10 Fair

It does not show on the hotel listing, but the Crowne Plaza was at the epicenter of civil protests 2-3 years ago. As such, the neighborhood is still very much boarded up and graffitied everywhere. It's very close to Lastarria but the immediate surrounding of the hotel is desolate. Additionally, the photos on the listing are not up-to-date. While it looks like some renovations have been done to the entrance and common (eating) areas, the hotel is a bit shabbier than the photos let on. There was some mould on the ceiling of our bathroom and the wood on the doors was in bad shape from lack of bathroom ventilation. The rooms are in need of an upgrade. The bed was very comfy and clean, though. We were particularly annoyed that the listing shows photos of a nice, well-equipped gym (which is a must for us when travelling). However, 1 of the 3 photos of the gym is clearly not at this hotel (the one with the pullies). Lastly, the Expedia listing mentioned the pool would be open from November to April. We arrived Nov 19th and the pool was not open and did not seem to be in the process of opening shortly. I recommend you look at the Crowne Plaza website directly to see if it's open or not.

Hotel is very tired. It is walled in behind guarded heavy security gates. The immediate area is awash in graffiti, and all stores and shops in the immediate area have permanently closed. Carpeting was worn and dirty and toilet did not flush properly.

The hotel is very tired: decor and tech-wise. Most staff lacked friendliness except Richy, who provided a welcoming touch.

Good staff, clean and comfortable rooms, but a terrible restaurant, both in terms of cleanliness, the competence of the staff or the quality of the food does not reach the level of a street eatery in Zimbabwe.

This property is closed as it is under renovation. Showed up to a closed building, the reservation had been transferred to the Intercontinental across town. Didn’t know anything about this, a construction worker had to tell me lol. He wasn’t even working on the property. Lucky me for finding someone to tell me. What a joke..
