Perfect hotel within the city but around nature.
The “tinajas” hot tub experience was very smooth and peaceful.
Great to travel with little kids

Since the change in administration I love this hotel Puerta del Sur. Friendly and respectful staff, good amenities, amazing views of the river and Cau-cau bridge. Good breakfast. No spiders and mosquitoes as it was in the past. I fully recommend this one special when you book thru Expedia, much cheaper than by the front desk.

Showed up a little early and the clerk had already our room available for us. Very clean and quiet, I really love this place, the view is spectacular.
Best breakfast ever with fresh bread, and pastries. Staff very friendly. Definitely I'll come back.

Expedia lies again! This is a nice clean property with nice sized rooms, wide hallways and wooded area surrounding property and plenty of free parking.
No business center, bellman,or concierge.
This is a solid 3 star hotel and it is fine. Why Expedia overrates this hotel is very misleading. Nicest part is the checkin desk has young university staff attending hotel mgmt school and actual try to help guests. Very refreshing!

Beautiful property and view. Staff was so helpful and front staff even helped me print something I needed. There was a broken light in our room that they tried to fix but couldn’t. Staff was very prompt and explained they would fix it the next day after trying for about 20 minutes. Our adult kids loved the outdoor hot tub.

Nice hotel with river view
Nice hotel with river view. They control the temperature of the room and mattress is just standard. You depend on other visitors behave since the acoustic isolation is not great but there's no street noise. The restaurant was not open but there are good options around 10 minutes walking. Overall, I would recommend it.

Not bad, but not great.
I was disappointed with this hotel. The breakfast was a bare minimum, hardly a buffet. I dined in the restaurant Botanico for dinner and i found it expensive and not that good. The hotel is also a bit hidden from the center of town. In their defense, it appears the hotel is not finished. The elevator wasn’t working and there was plenty of construction going on. I am not usually a complainer, but I won’t stay here on my next trip to Valdivia.

Clean hotel and well located
But during our stay, an electricity shutfown occurs from 20:00 hrs until 12:00 am next day.
So I expected some courtesy from the hotel (discount or bonus for the next stay),but nothing of that happens.

Lugar muy acogedor.
El hotel es genial, sus instalaciones y su entorno es único. Quizás deben tener una mayor variedad en la carta del restaurante y tener una precios más competitivos con otros locales de la ciudad. En cuanto al muelle se recomienda poner letreros de advertencia en la zona donde hay humedales para los niños que no conocen esa zona.

El hotel es muy lindo, pero en la habitacion habia feo olor (como a humedad ... la verdad, estuvimos dos noches y ni avise ... no era super terrible, pero restaba). La vista muy linda, los espacios exteriores hermosos!! El bar muy lindo con fogones para disfrutar en dias frios.

Hotel tranquilo, muy buenas habitaciones, personal del hotel muy atento y dispuesto a atender los requerimientos de los huespedes. El hotel esta lejos de la zona turistica a pie (20min caminando). Pero en auto o Uber, a 5 min.
