A UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE Valparaiso is located 120 km (86 mi) from Santiago. As the cultural capital of Chile, Valparaiso is a city like no other. It is a port city that was very important prior to the construction of the Panama Canal. Many of its buildings still bear witness to its European influence and testify to the former grandeur of this southern port. UNESCO has classified Valparaiso as a World Heritage Site, owing to its legendary cable cars that connect the harbour to the hills, among other features. The “El Peral” cable car, for instance, provides the guests with convenient access to Sotomayor Square, near the port. The hotel is located in Cerro Alegre, specifically next to Paseo Yugoslavo, where the Fine Arts Museum (former Baburizza Palace) is located. Next to Cerro Alegre, there is Cerro Concepcion. In both hills you find excellent restaurants such as Pasta e Vino (Pasta), Malandrino (Pizzeria), Samsara (Thai) or Le Filou de Montpellier (French). Next to Valparaiso, there is the sister-city of Viña del Mar, which was founded as a beach town for wealthy “Porteños” back in the late 19th century. There are still some palaces dating from the Belle Epoque period, witness of those times. Viña del Mar offers parks and beaches, and heading north throught the coastal road you find sea lions, seagulls, pelicans and seafood restaurants.
