Fabulous location in the colorful, funky neighborhood of Cerro Alegre! The hotel is stylish, clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly and super helpful. The rooftop bar and restaurant have an amazing view and the food/cocktails were fabulous.

Fauna - great location, interesting architecture.

The Fauna Hotel is a unique hotel. It was lovingly created. The hotel and rooms are on 4 floors. Our rooms were on the bottom floor 1 (the reception is on floor 3). Thankfully Iris greeted us when we arrived and carried my heavy suitcase down the 2 long flights of stairs. (Someone else carried it back up). The restaurant (4th floor) served an excellent breakfast buffet, including custom eggs. We had dinner there and all the food and wine were fabulous. The view of Valpariso from the restaurant was AMAZING! The hotel is located right at the top of a funicular and near some bakeries and small shops. We did a lot of walking in Valpariso! It's a lovely city. The Fauna is in a great area, and it's easy to get to many other places in Valpo by walking. Uber is also available in the city. Our room on floor 1 had a street outside of the window, but it was closed overnight and quiet. Our first morning included construction workers literally right outside our window! (Luckily we were already awake). The staff had warned us, but it was still a shock. In addition to the stairs, you cannot get to the hotel directly from the street. You have to walk in about 2 blocks, with some steps too. This was not a problem for us, but would be for some people. The hotel does not have an elevator, and the stairs in the hotel would be problematic for some also. Wifi worked very well. If you are fit, this hotel is unique and lovely. Highly recommend.

The property itself is quite amazing. Architecture, theme, decor, facilities and amenities, certain views, general atmosphere are all great or excellent. Restaurant staff was amazing and breakfast is amazing. Hotel staff was hit or miss, most were great/excellent, but a few bad apples made the difference. Staff from room cleaning service tried to enter twice in the same day with us inside without knocking and the lady at the counter who checked us in and coincidentally was there while we checked out was not really helpful and dismissive of our concerns as guests. No hotel staff offered help. Our only true concern was the fact that the hotel's inaccessibility and hidden location is not mentioned in the Expedia description. We missed the one costumer review that warns others about this. The hotel is not closed to the beach, there is no true beach in this industrial/port city, and the hotel is not in a central location, it is hidden in a pedestrian path up Cerro Alegre hill with no vehicle access. Maybe this is part of the "charm", but if you don't know, you don't know. We didn't and after a month cruising in Ecuador, Peru, and Chile, we wanted a break in a nice hotel. Having to lug out all of our bags from our rental car after trying to find the hotel was not what we expected. Had we known, we could've made a couple of day bags and leave all our equipment in the car. but this wasn't possible and really soured or experience.

There is no parking on site and the hotel is not accessible by car (it’s on a pedestrian only road). Enquired in advance about parking and on the day of, was directed to either park on a back street (tip: try to park either on Doctor Jose Grossi or on Capilla) on a neighbouring lot for 12,000 Chilean pesos. There are no elevators on site. Had to walk up/down 3-4 flights of stairs. There is no view. You can hear every word that other guests are saying next door as well as conversations at the restaurant on the top floor. There is zero insulation on the walls or on the door. It is a beautiful hotel despite all that. One of the most beautiful and newest in the area. Breakfast included is hearty and you can order great coffee (latte, americano, cappuccino... you name it) and proteins & fats like avocado, ham, eggs (fried or scrambeld) in addition to simple breads and desserts from a breakfast menu (at no extra chaege). The view from the rooftop restaurant is great.

Excellent location. Good value. Great restaurant.

Brilliant location, right by the funicular. The current building is beautiful and very interesting, cut out of the hillside and joining two former houses together. The rooftop restaurant is perfect with stunning views but take a jacket as the wind from the Pacific can be chilly and some rooms are in deep shade. The reception staff were very welcoming and friendly and put us in touch with an excellent walking tour by two local history enthusiasts who did the whole thing in period costume!

Great bar and restaurant in the best area.

The staff are very friendly and helpful. The restaurant/bar is the highlight with great views, food and reasonably priced drinks. Although the standard rooms are modern and comfortable they are very small and basic - no wardrobe/shelves for clothes, no tea/coffee facilities, no fridge. Although we enjoyed our stay and thought the staff were amazing, we thought the rooms were very basic for the price.
