The Pool at Casa Bueras Boutique Hotel

"The 14 elegant rooms, verdant courtyard out back with a terraced restaurant overlooking an unheated pool, and quietly elegant front desk all have a warm style that capitalize on the historic charm of this 84-year-old house that was once occupied by a branch of the Allende family"

"Reasons to stay here: a ridiculously lush pool in the back garden, vaulted-ceiling rooms with travertine tiles, modern-classic furnishings and plenty of space to move around, plus a small gym and about the most ideal location you could imagine"

"This old mansion dating back to 1927 has been restored and is now a 14-bedroomed boutique hotel in the trendy foodie district of Lastarria, complete with a pretty covered terrace and a small swimming pool"

"Rooms 9, 10, 13 and 14 overlook the pool, while 11 and 12 benefit from a private terrace overlooking a neighboring street"
