Bottom Line

RQ Santiago is part of the RQ Hotel group, a chain that operates six other apartment-style establishments in Santiago. It's located in the heart of the city, close to government buildings and tourist attractions. Its 53 apartment-style rooms take up the top floors of a 22-story building, and feature simple decor, modern kitchenettes, separate living rooms, and work desks. The rooftop pool offers impressive views of Santiago. Guests should be forewarned, however, that even though they may book a room here, their reservation is not guaranteed -- RQ has been known to move guests to its other RQ properties in Santiago without prior notice upon check-in.

Oyster Hotel Review

RQ Santiago

Location

Located in downtown Santiago, a short walk to many main attractions and two subway stations

The hotel is located on Avenida Libertador General Bernardo O’Higgins, popularly known as La Alameda. It is considered Santiago’s main thoroughfare and runs east to west throughout the city, with five lanes in each direction. It was named in honor of Bernardo O’Higgins, who, together with Jose de San Martin, helped Chile gain independence from Spain. A number of sights are within walking distance, including La Moneda Palace and Plaza de Armas, and there's a supermarket next door.

Present-day Santiago is a bustling, loud, ever-growing and ever-evolving metropolis populated with nearly seven million people. Aside from being the political and economic center of Chile, it is also fast becoming the country’s hub for arts, entertainment, food and drink, and culture. The dynamic city is dotted with museums, theaters, bars, and different vibrant neighborhoods that cater to various crowds, such as the bohemian artists, culinary elite, and politicians. What makes this urban center especially unique is the fact that it’s surrounded by the beautiful, glistening snow-capped Andes Mountains. Although Santiago has had a problem with smog and air pollution, it’s still difficult not to be impressed by this stunning natural backdrop.

  • 29-minute drive to Santiago Arturo Merino Benitez Airport
  • 7-minute walk to La Moneda Palace, the presidential palace
  • 13-minute walk to Museo Chileno de Arte Precolombino, a museum of Pre-Colombian art
