Heart of Valparaiso
Right at the heart of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Palacio Astoreca is both palatial and relaxing.
As you step out of your limo in front of Palacio Astoreca, you know you’ve arrived at a very special destination. Beautifully restored, the façade has all the energetic zest of a rococo palace.
Walk inside the hotel and the wonder continues. The ambiance is discreetly relaxed. The walls are hung with work by leading Chilean and contemporary artists. The piano bar fuses the warmth of a classic fireplace with stylish modern décor. The terrace presents you with a view over the picturesque bay of Valparaiso, with its white yachts rocking gently at anchor. Your room exudes style and class.
And then there is the setting. Palacio Astoreca stands in the lively heart of the cultural capital of Chile, with easy access to everywhere.

From the first conversation to the final day of our trip, Catherine and the team were helpful, efficient and easy to reach. Their recommendations not only improved our original plans but also made the whole holiday more cost-effective. Even when we needed assistance while away, their response was immediate. We wouldn’t hesitate to travel with them again.
Jonny took the time to discuss all the options with us and tailored every detail to our wishes. He suggested thoughtful add-ons, arranged excellent guides, and created a brilliant itinerary packed with maps, tips, and all the information we needed for exploring the two countries we visited. An absolute trip of a lifetime to Argentina and Brazil.
