Best Western Las Condes, which finished construction in 2010, is an uncommonly modern, stylish member of the Best Western family. Rooms feature sleek decor, wood furnishings, well-stocked minibars, flat-screen TVs, and contemporary bathrooms; some have great views. Free breakfast and Wi-Fi are standard perks at the Best Westerns, but Premier Marina Las Condes' glamorous rooftop pool, well-equipped fitness center, and cute street-side cafe exceed expectations. And with Santiago's best shopping just five minutes away, this Best Western is made (and priced) for a more upscale crowd.
Location
In the posh neighborhood of Las Condes
Best Western Premier Marina is located in the upper-middle-class suburb of Las Condes. The area is home to some of Santiago's best shopping and has earned the nickname "Sanhattan" because of the posh retailers on Avenue Apoquindo, which runs through most of Las Condes. The hotel is also a five-minute stroll to Manquehue subway station, which is located on the famous street, making it a convenient home base from which to see Santiago.Santiago has long been known as a stopover city used only for connections to other more exciting sites in South America, but it has begun gaining ground as a sophisticated metropolis. Once a purely economic and political center for Chile, it has now given way to increasingly respected dining, great shopping, and lots of bike paths. With a decent underground system, a competitive nightlife, and proximity to the Andes for skiing, Santiago has a lot to offer.- 31-minute drive to Arturo Merino Benitez Airport
