The Singular Santiago

The Singular Santiago is a boutique luxury hotel at Merced 294 in the Lastarria neighbourhood of Santiago, Chile, one of the most atmospheric and walkable parts of the historic core. Cerro Santa Lucia, the Museo de Bellas Artes, Parque Forestal and the cafes and galleries of Lastarria all lie within a short walk, and the Bellas Artes and Santa Lucia metro stations are close by, linking quickly to the rest of the network. The airport is about 30 to 40 minutes by car. The hotel combines heritage-inspired interiors with contemporary comforts and is known for an intimate scale that contrasts with the large towers of Las Condes. Room types listed include Deluxe Rooms, Superior Rooms, Junior Suites and Suites. Dining is built around an on-site restaurant and a bar, and the rooftop terrace and pool overlook the historic centre, making sunset drinks a popular activity. A spa and a fitness centre are also available. Service is personal, with a concierge team able to arrange walking tours, restaurant reservations and wine-valley excursions. Rates generally run from about CLP 230,000 to 440,000 per night (roughly USD 245 to 470). The location is ideal for first-time visitors who want to explore on foot, with the Plaza de Armas and Mercado Central reachable in about 15 to 25 minutes. Lastarria is lively in the evenings, so street noise can be noticeable on weekends in lower rooms. The district is considered safe in the daytime and evening, though normal city precautions apply late at night.
