Perched among the hills of the World Heritage city of Valparaiso, with terrific views over the Pacific Ocean, Casa Higueras is a chic, intimate boutique hotel, originally a mansion built in the 1920s and now carefully restored. Its 20 rooms and suites are supremely elegant and fitted out with all the contemporary facilities one could wish for.
The hotel has a beautiful, Mediterranean style garden surrounded with palms, fig trees and a large araucaria, also boasting a lovely infinity pool and a small spa, perfect for enjoying a relaxing massage. The hotel’s Montealegre restaurant has particularly fine views over the port and the sophisticated cuisine cleverly blends Mediterranean and Chilean flavours, with a particular emphasis on seafood and an extensive wine list.
Casa Higueras is an excellent base from which to discover the fascinating city of Valparaiso or take trips along the fantastic coastline, and makes for a relaxing beginning or end to a trip in Chile.
