Gran Cavancha Hotel & Apartment

ok

Great hotel, rooms, location and service. This was my second stay in a month

The internet didn't work for the entirety of the stay, which was a problem given I was there for work. It struggled with even a Google search. Apparently it's a common problem there.

I booked at this location because it had apartment style units that fit my needs for this meet up with Chilean friends. But I was floored by the amazing views from the unit. Nearly the entire wall was glass, and my bedroom was a corner with stunning views from the ocean to the city. The one downside was I could get a sunburn during my afternoon siesta, but thankfully they also had an air conditioner in the unit to make up for the heat up that occurred when the sun came in. The one part that freaked me out was the shower. The floor was a bit squishy which made it feel unstable to me, something that was top of mind knowing I was on the very edge of the building on the 16th floor. I kept thinking I was going to fall out to the street below. But I overcame my fears and was safe in the end, despite one minor earthquake while I was there. The rooftop pool is a great concept and I enjoyed that. The location was just two blocks from the beach. Very convenient. Overall I was very happy with my stay here and I'd love to come back again.

The location and property itself was AMAZING! the view of the beach is unparalleled - really made our stay fantastic. the restaurant on the roof is pretty decent - i was traveling with a kid and so having that restaurant there made everything a bit more convenient. The front desk staff gave poor restaurant recommendations though and so that turned a couple of evenings into a less that fab experience. overall a GREAT place to stay- just do your own homework when it comes to restaurants and you'll be good!
