Nice hotel with friendly, excellent staff. The restaurant has good food with great service and the prices are very reasonable. There's a metro station a minute from the hotel, and an extensive shopping district across the avenue. Many museums and sights to see within easy walking distance. I travel to Santiago every year and this is my new go-to hotel.

Safe and comfortable haven.
Glad we were staying at a safe and comfortable hotel during May day, as we were told it wasn't safe to walk through the city that night.

Very nice hotel in downtown Santiago. Close to tourist attractions. Very walkable area.
The roombI had was 312 and it was really nice. A comfortable bed, quiet, refrigerator, safe and a nice walk in shower.
Breakfast was delicious. The restaurant at the hotel was very nice for dinner. Inexpensive and really good food. I will stay here again

This hotel was walking distance to Palacio La Moneda, Santa Lucía and Barrio Listarria. When we needed to go farther, we had the Universidad de Chile metro stop nearby. Excellent service from staff! We enjoyed our stay!

Great location and friendly staff!
Very nice staff and comfortable bed. Room was a great size. Would have been perfect but the ac was not quite strong enough for the high outdoor temp. It wasn’t terrible it just needed to be slightly cooler. Overall would stay again. Location is superb.

The facilities are too old, the bathroom is too small and the courtains don't close well the light. The breakfest is very good and its time is amazing. We can have it from 6:30 to 10:30.

Hotel Fundador in Santiago, Chile became our home away from home as we travelled through Chile returning each time to stay here before catching the next flight out to yet another Chilean destination. We must mention the front desk staff, their patience, efficiency and smiling welcome each time, especially Zaida and Luciano.

The staff was kind and helpful. The only thing is that it was a bit noisy during the night due that there are young people that gather just outside the main door of the hotel with loud talking and listening to loud music.
