"Overlooks the grand Plaza de Armas from the sixth story of a late 19th-century apartment building, with spectacular city views."
Rough Guide
"This gem, on the sixth floor of a building hidden within an alleyway filled with fast-food joints, has a prime location on the Plaza de Armas."

"Sports tiny dorms and a well-equipped communal kitchen. Great balconies with views over Plaza de Armas make up for the run-down facilities."

Should you choose to leave, however, you'll need to take a taxi because the location at the head of a crazy traffic loop makes it difficult to walk anywhere from here.

"The Grand Hyatt is one of the largest hotels in Santiago and has a resort-style atmosphere with lush grounds and an outdoor pool and waterfall."

Huge windows let in great city views, but ask for a higher floor to guarantee those picturesque snow-capped Andes.
Lonely Planet
"Rooms are huge and so are the cushion-covered beds – from them, and from the small living areas, there are spectacular views of Santiago and the mountains."

"A clean-lined contemporary look—Philippe Starck lightfixtures, suede-soft curtains, Bang and Olufsen technology—predominate in this modern 24-story tower."

Book a Grand Deluxe room between floors 7 and 15 ending in 7-12 for the Andes views you're looking for
