Fauna Hotel Valparaíso

Fauna Hotel is one of Valparaíso’s most beloved and artistically rich independent hotels, occupying a magnificently preserved 1870 building on Pasaje Dimalow, the intimate pedestrian lane at the heart of Cerro Alegre, the city’s most celebrated and picturesque UNESCO World Heritage neighbourhood. Each of the hotel’s 22 rooms has been individually designed with the contribution of Chilean national artists, incorporating native woods, raw earth textures, ceramic details, and handcrafted elements that make every space a genuinely unique aesthetic experience. The rooms feature private bathrooms, electric kettles, flat-screen satellite television, heating, and complimentary Wi-Fi, with some enjoying partial views of the bay and others overlooking the charming interior courtyard. The hotel’s rooftop restaurant serves creative signature cuisine drawing on Chilean produce alongside local craft beers, artisanal cocktails, and an extensive Chilean wine list, and is open to the general public, making it a neighbourhood dining destination in its own right. A spa offering massage treatments is available on the property. The Reina Victoria funicular is just 15 metres from the hotel, connecting guests directly to the city’s lower commercial areas. Fauna Hotel delivers one of the most complete and atmospherically compelling hotel experiences available anywhere in Chile.
