Breakfast was abundant, with multiple choices in terms of hot drinks, bread, and pastries. The dining room has a pleasant bright and beautiful view to the river. The girls in charge of serving were very attentive and kind. Everything was very clean an organized. Fruit was not available daily so I would only suggest to have a daily choice of fruit and whole wheat bread.
The view from our room was beautiful. The room has a comfortable bed as well as nice comfortable pillows. Everything in the room was nice , warm and clean including the bathroom.
The location is excellent. There is a beautiful waterfront where you can take a nice walk, contemplate the river and even have a surprising experience with the sea lions and other fauna. The hotel is located walking distance from downtown and from the famous River market- Mercado Fluvial. You can even take a solar powered taxi boat by a stop at the river near the hotel. There are several restaurants in the area and we really loved the Mesa Incognito Restaurant.
Situated in downtown Valdivia, only 2 blocks from Plaza Republica, services include free Wi-Fi and complimentary parking. Cosy rooms are offered at Melillanca.

Many international travelers may think: "what's the big deal?" but this is a real university town with an incredibly rich history and a little bit of everything to offer-- that is, if you know how, and where, to look. The pub scene, between Calle Esmerelda and Isla Teja, is undoubtedly one of the best in the country, there is a strong and storied literary and cultured circle that haunts the many cafes and bookstores during the day, and there are plenty of places to shop and pass time, inside or outside. Many Chileans adore the city for the relatively high quality urban experience it offers.
If you're looking for a pampered luxury experience or world-class historic or cultural sites, you may be better off going to an all-exlusive resort near one of the many lakes in Chile's southern regions, or getting to some archealogical sites outside of the city itself. But overall Valdivians are community people, and rightly proud of their city. Most locals will be happy to tell you anything about their home; its relics from 16th century Spanish conquista, the 19th century German colonists, its near total destruction in largest earthquake in recorded history (1960), the Pinochet dictatorship, or more recent events. Many historical buildings and sites are better looked after in Valdivia than other cities in Chile (looking at you, Puerto Montt).
So, go to Valdivia if you're willing to put in a little bit of effort; get out of your hotel (though I would recommend staying in one of the smaller, locally owned bed and breakfasts), interact with people, ask questions, and find things to do. But if you are looking for a traveleing experience where it's easy to find things to do, and you expect things to be polished, clean, and orderly, this probably isn't the place for you.

Valdivia is a quaint Chilean seaside city with plenty of activity, We fortunately happened to visit during a festival on the riverside promenade so crowds were enjoying the nightly street performers, food, and artisan markets. The city has made its great waterfront a happening place with strollers, river boats constantly taking many around to surrounding sites, and excellent restaurants. We spent two days of fun activiites with the best boat 4 hour very economical tour of the historic river and an island village. Definiitely recommended for a two or three day summertime visit but book early since it is popular with Chilean families and foreign visitors. I(MO, the lower cost accomodations are suitable only for the backpacker class of traveller so be wary.

Valdivia is a beautiful City, with many activities.
Valdivia is a beautiful City, with many activities. A trip to the Fort in Niebla is worth the $1.25 bus fare. Downside to Valdivia is the graffiti and vandalism to the businesses and churches. It makes the City feel unsafe for visitors.

The city is very beautiful and there are several parks and places for walking. I recommend renting a vehicle to tour the nearest lakes and tourist attractions that are not in the city. Be sure to try the craft beers, which are everywhere.

One of the most beautiful cities in the North of Chile.
One of the most beautiful cities in the North of Chile. People are friendly and super interested in ones well being. The beer and food at some of the places were totally out of this world and very delicious like the seafood and meat dishes on offer in the area.
A must is a visit to Cafe Hausemann to taste the Crudo (a raw meat dish with various accompliments . Then the El Growler and Bundor Pubs in the centre that makes some of the regions best Artisanal Cervezas/Beers . A bit out of town is the Kuntsmann Brewery for Valdivian Beers and some good german foods. (Das Guten Bier is their Slogal)
A visit to the Fort at Niebla is a must for every traveller and a good exposure to the history of Valdivia and the town.
If you're doing work at the Universidad Austral or on the Isla Teja and your meeting goes late, this is a perfect, cheap, classic Chilean place to crash for a night or two. Safe parking, clean bathroom, quiet neighborhood to get you right back up and moving fresh in the morning. There's no breakfast, but it's just a block or two away from some great cafes that are open early in the morning and serve breakfast. The owner is friendly.
Really cosy comfortable room with lots of space, great pillows and a smart TV. The bathroom was a good size and clean and included shampoo and soap which was handy. The breakfast was absolutely delicious: bread and butter, cheese, scrambled eggs, juice, tea, coffee and cake! The host was so lovely, such a kind friendly lady and helped out with suggestions for what to do in the area. Highly recommend staying here!
We liked this comfortable, roomy, and clean hotel. The kitchenette was a plus and I was glad that I had made reservations that included the kitchenette. Again, this is another hotel where check-in is done via the Internet and/or App. This app was easy to download and it worked well. We had a problem with the WiFi in our room that couldn't be fixed quickly so they moved us into a different one down the hall.
Loved the apartment! Super clean, comfortable, centric location. The hosts made us feel really welcome and helped us out when my father-in-law got an unexpected delay on his flight and got there at 5 AM. The apart-hotel is located right in front of 2 restaurants and a café and is about a 10 minute walk from the downtown area and the river's boardwalk. Really quiet too. Would absolutely recommend.
Exceptional on everything, the cost is very good for Valdivia it's a place just a few blocks in to Centro, the staff are really kind, there are good people and so helpful too, you can have a good stay in Valdivia because of them 😊 I like the heating also, beds are comfy it's so clean and u have freedom ..
It is not a hotel, it's a hostal. The staff is ery kind and they have a very good attitude to help and assist in our necessities. The location of the hostel is great. It's in front of the Calle Calle River and near downtown.
The facilities are old and basic. The beds could be more comfortable.
Loved the ocean view from our room and the location outside of town. Our host Javier was very kind and helpful for restaurant suggestions and skiing places. Was flexible with payment options (accepts cash) as many places in Chile prefer direct deposit to a bank account which is strange to us.
Very good buffet. Very attentive staff. Went to the trouble of getting green tea. No annoying music or TV. Table cloths. View of flowers. Parking available and easy. Airport shuttle arranged efficiently, Beautiful front garden, flowers. Small park opposite hotel.
The room and the washroom was spotless and clean smell. The hostesses were very knowledgeable about Valdivia and their surroundings. Definitely a good hostal and the price was very good also very close to downtown and you walk everywhere from the hostal.
The hotel has a lot of character and a some corners are beautifully decorated. I loved the old phones and machinery and the wooden structure. The bed was comfortable. I loved the view from my room .
The bar was good and service there was amazing.
This hostal is located just in front of the main bus station (Terminal). It is 2 minutes walk from the station. This hostal is perfect for any travellers which don’t have lots of time to enjoy Valdivia, or need a place near the bus station.
We had a room with river and pool view on the second floor, the view was quite amazing. The location of the hotel is perfect if you have a car, easy to arrive and easy to drive back to the center of the city.
Small hotel, very well located, quiet and clean. The only downside was a bad smell from the drain in the bathroom. Also the breakfast could have better quality products and real coffee would be appreciated.
Very quiet compared to many other places I've stayed at in Valdivia. Nice property caretaker. Neighborhood felt safe. Space was very welcoming and there was a nice little common yard.
Breakfast was amazing, the staff was super helpful and nice people. The location was great for walking around valdivia. The value for what you pay is super high!
A fantastic location. Right on the estuary, we saw many wonderful birds. You can book a great paddle boarding tour via the hotel’s website. Very kind staff.
