The breakfast was fantastic. Marcello was very helpful. He couldn't do enough for us.

The location was perfect. The room was huge with incredible views of the harbor and the city. The owners took incredible care of us and made us incredible breakfasts each morning. Really the perfect place to stay in Valparaiso.

Marcelo and Gloria are wonderful hosts, and they have decorated the place so nicely it feels like home instantly. They are very helpful with directions and suggestions for visiting their town. The breakfast they prepared was by far the best we have had in our two month stay in Chile. It can’t be beat! There are several wonderful restaurants within a few blocks walk, and the neighborhood feels very safe at night. We recommend you stay three nights or more. Highly recommended!

Nothing, we really enjoyed our time there!

Amazing accommodation, beautiful old hotel. The hosts were both so very lovely and helpful! The breakfast was delicious. The rooftop is also a huge perk, so nice to sit on while enjoying the view. The location is very central and easy to get around (but be prepared for hills!).

No screens on the windows.

Location is perfect. Innkeepers were very helpful with tour and food suggestions and several other requests that we had

Stayed in January 2025

A bit rustic and dated. However, the hosts easily countered the lack of an elevator by manhandling all luggage up the two flights of stairs.

Excellent location with a view from the rooftop second to none. The location between the Cerro Concepcion and Cerro Alegre made for a perfect circle tour of the hills, artisans, eateries, viewpoints and murals. Marcelo and Gloria were extremely gracious and the breakfast menu rivalled anything at any other 5-star establishment.

The hotel is run by a very welcoming and friendly couple. From the moment we arrived we were made comfortable and our questions answered. Our room looked out over the bay with a fabulous view. The room had a comfortable bed, chairs and a table. Plenty of space for suitcases and belongings and a small balcony. There was a roof terrace available for the use by all the guests. The weather wasn’t favourable whilst we were there but on a nice afternoon/ evening would have been lovely to use. Hotel in a great location to see all the main sights in Valparaiso. Breakfast was homemade and delicious.

The climb to the top floor is a bit of a challenge, but the views are worth it. Marcelo was kind to carry our luggage up to and down from our top floor room.

Wonderful.warm, accommodating hosts, Marcelo and Gloria. Fine breakfast. Fabulous location with stunning view of the harbor.

We loved everything!

The location was beautiful and allowed us to go walking everywhere we needed to go. The hotel was very charming and unique, especially compared to the big well-known hotels that we have stayed in before, which are all virtually the same. The young couple who were running the hotel were very friendly and very helpful. They also cooked and served the best breakfast we have ever had in a hotel. Everything was lovely!

Location

I can't think of anything. There are stairs but our luggage was carried up and down, so that was fine.

We liked so much about this. Both owner/managers were fantastic and really made our overnight stay a big success. Breakfast, laundry service, accommodations, the front garden area, the location, helping get us a ride to the port, the view of the city, the rooftop sitting area at night and during the day...you really can't do better.

Hotel Atkinson is an exceptionally well managed establishment. Manager/owner Marcello ensures a high standard is maintained and guests are made to feel very welcome and much like old friends. Nothing seems to be too much trouble - from providing us with local currency to do a walking tour and driving us to a tour when we were too late to walk. A big thank you Marcello for a memorable stay - and delectable coffee.

No air con which was fine for our stay but summer would be interesting.

Really quaint old wooden house typical of Valparaiso. Very clean throughout. Staff so helpful even lending Chilean Peso’s in case we wanted to use the funicular. Very accommodating to our early breakfast request. Would have liked to have stayed longer.

There was nothing to criticize about this property in my opinion.

Three reasons to give this hotel top marks. First, the location in Cerro Concepcion, an oasis of tranquility yet right in the heart of the artistic area. In my opinion, far better than many of the other neighbourhoods to stay in. Secondly, the hotel itself. Comfortable, clean and homely. A true delight to return to after a hard day of walking around the city. Thirdly, the fabulous couple Marcelo and Gloria who own the hotel. Nothing is too much trouble. They provided a wealth of information on tours and places to see. Gloria’s breakfasts were a highlight of the stay as well! Cannot recommend the place highly enough. All at a very reasonable price!

It's a little noisy at night with the window open but this is Valparaiso ... It's a lively city with lots going on.

Marcello and Gloria were the perfect hosts and spoke excellent English. They were helpful with tips and even lent us a Metro card. Breakfast was a highlight. We stayed in room three which, although not large, was ok for three nights. The hotel is in a terrific location and full of character. Highly recommended and good value for money.

It was an old French hotel with original features. Our hosts were super helpful. The breakfasts were the best. The position was great.

This hotel is a wonderful place to stay. Great location near to the water, to the coolest murals, to the best restaurants. Warm and inviting environment. The best thing of all is the care and assistance of Marcel and Gloria who run the place. They simply can't do enough for you, and even texted me (traveling alone) to make sure that I got to Santiago safely on an Uber ride. It seems like they are never off, and will make your stay memorable.

All good

From the moment we arrived Pascal and Gloria spoiled us. Their pride in their lovely antique hotel from the lush plant collection to the natty home crafted furniture is charming. We really enjoyed the delicious unique and home made breakfasts and adored the murals on the hotel and view of the sea from our room.
