The hotel is perfectly located in the center of town. We could walk easily anywhere we wanted. The staff was very friendly and helpful. If you don't speak Spanish, use your Google Translate app as most people here in Chile don't speak English. We had beautiful views of the city on the 9th floor. I would come back again

Comfortable enough. Slow Internet.
This hotel is in a great location near a plaza and shopping. It was quiet and comfortable. The staff was courteous and accommodated my need for a late check-out. The Internet was only fast during off-peak times.

Hotel OK but the city was a disappointment.
We were unfortunate to arrive whilst the forest fires were about, and the city appeared deserted even though it was around 21:00 on a Saturday evening.

Okay hotel
The staff at this hotel were not overly friendly. The rooms were very basic and lacking things like a kettle/iron which other cheaper hotels offer. The TV was not particularly great. The curtains in the room were like paper so the room stayed quite light all night. The breakfast is okay but nothing special. Overall it's fine to stay in, just not as good as we were expecting.

Convenient to center of city
A comfortable room with friendly and efficient staff. Within sight of main plaza and other downtown sites within walking distance. Better than average breakfast and good room maintenance provided. Old style softer bed mattress. Would stay there again if returning to city. Chile has many stray dogs in major cities and Concepcion has more of them gathering in packs than we saw elsewhere in the country. When congregated in the Plaza nearby their barking can be annoying.

Buen lugar para alojar por trabajo
Muy limpio, buen aislamiento de sonido, el baño tiene todo lo esencial y buen desayuno. Por mejorar: el sostén de la ducha estaba suelto, avisé y no lo arreglaron. Había sólo un enchufe en la habitación (lejos del velador). El frigobar no tenía bebidas de menú. El televisor no es HD ni permite conexión a smartphone/plataformas.

Förvänta dig inte för mycket...
Ingen pool fast det stod att det skulle finnas.
Frukost, tråkig och med låg kvalité.
Bra med kostnadsfritt privat garage.
Bra att det ligger centralt och har bra ljudisolering.
Atmosfären, mörkt.
Restaurangen stänger tidigt och det finns ingen bar. Ingenstans att ta vägen efter kl 21.
Tv endast på spanska förutom BBC.
