Bohemian red mansion
The vermillion 1923 mansion carries on its bohemian past, serving local Carménère each afternoon beside Plaza Camilo Mori.

What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Much of the original charm remains — picture romantic old fireplaces, rustic woodwork, twenties-era light fixtures, an utter lack of elevators — but the 2013 update brought contemporary comforts to nineteen guest rooms
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Plaza Camilo Mori sits right outside the front doors. Pablo Neruda's home, La Chascona, is just a block away.
The rooms
Rooms cluster around an original timber staircase, furnished with dark wood armoires, writing desks, and vintage curios like antique typewriters.
At the table
The dark wood bar sits in an intimate purple salon, pouring Chilean wines and evening drinks.
How it began
Federico Bieregel designed the manor in 1923 for a French-Chilean family, decades before it became a bohemian artists' collective.
