Santiago Backpackers Reviews

magic hostel with great staff. would recommend to anyone!

Very Good Hostel! Unfortunately there werent many people there so there wasnt much going on.

The staff was superb, very friendly and helpful. The showers were hot, the commodes clean, and the sinks convenient. The dorms were in good order with good lockers. The location was within 10 minutes of a Metro station, and within walking distance of Plaza de Armas, the Cathedral, and some museums. Restaurants and cafés abound. A good, safe area to have as a base in Santiago.

Great Hostel, watch out for the cute German girls at the reception

This hostel is amazing! The location is very central, and the the staff members are super helpful. I really like that it's a friendly, social atmosphere without the loud, obnoxious partying at night. Next time I'm in Santiago, I'm definitely going to Santiago Backpackers.

I really liked the breakfast, specially the big fruit selection. Also the atmosphere is awesome because the other guests and staff are very nice. I'm definitely going to stay again in this hostel the next time I'm in Santiago.

This was the best hostel I've stayed in while traveling in South America! The owner and staff are so helpful, and the breakfast is great. They also have free dinner once a week. I will definitely stay here when I return to Santiago.

Perfect location. Good price.

On the whole, it was a good experience. Met some friendly people and got some decent advice on things to check out.

awesome hostel. very clean, spacious, and they always have these little events at teh hostel. owner and his brother are way cool. definitely would stay there again

This hostel is the best you can choose in Santiago.It is situated in the middle of the city,close to all the major attractions.If you like to go out at night,there’s a lot of nice place around.Or you can choose to stay at the hostel,every week there's activities!The staff is really helpful and they speak fluent english and spanish.The owner is amazing!During your stay, he will do everything to make you feel like home.This is a really nice,clean and safe hostel.I will recommend it to everyone!

It's very close to the historic centre, so you can arrive to the most of famous and importat places just walking. There was only one computer and was extremely slow!!

I spent one night at backpackers. I arrived very late in the night because my flight mas delayed. The girl at the counter was'nt too friendly but it was all together OK. The rooms are nice and wide and so are the lockers. There was no hot water in the shower and that was a little bit annoying... The breakfast was pretty dull but I think that's the standart more or less... All together, a fine place to stay, didn't leave a great impression on me to either side.. Enjoy :-)

Very good hostel to meet very nice people!

This is a great hostel. The location is excellent, very close to loads of great parks, bars, shops and restaurants. The building is nice and clean and the rooms are very well equipped, the staff are helpful and the hostel organise a lot of fun activities for the guests. I strongly recommend this place.

Santiago Backpackers was the first place I stayed upon arriving in South America and it was a great way to kick off my trip. The activities organised by the hostel each night are awesome (especially the wine and cheese night) and a fun way to meet fellow travellers. The hostel owner, Ari, went out of his way to help me plan and book onward travel, even after I had left Santiago and his advice and help was invaluable. This hostel comes highly recommended!

Good clean hostel, very helpful and informative staff even the cleaning lady who didn't speak english still had a lot of useful information i'm sure if i'd been able to understand her.

Great, clean hostel with comfortable beds. Very knowldegable staff who will help you find the best things to do in the city. Definitely recommend!
