Location
In Ciudad Empresarial, a low-key business park with little to see or do
The Radisson Ciudad Empressarial Santiago is located in Ciudad Empresarial, a massive business park north of downtown Santiago. While this location is ideal for business travelers, it puts you a solid 15-minute drive away from most of Santiago's popular sites, restaurants, and shopping destinations.Santiago gets an unfair rap as being less happening than its other South American counterparts, but this couldn't be further from the truth. The city is incredibly dynamic with both modern and ancient buildings brushing up against one another -- much like Latin and European cultures blend to give the city its unique charm. The city's geography in itself is a huge plus: Santiago is lined with snowcapped mountains, and it's possible to ski and be on a beach in the same day. Santiago's central location makes taking trips around Chile fairly easy.The city has plenty to offer its visitors. Shopping options cover everything from handmade local products, like alpaca wool clothing and locally made jewelry, to plenty of places to sample and purchase Chilean wines. Art museums showcase everything from fantastic pre-Columbian art to Pablo Neruda's former home. To wind down at the end of the day, visitors and locals alike take advantage of the nightlife in Nunoa and Providencia neighborhoods.- 30-minute drive to Arturo Merino Benitez Airport
