Altiplanico Puerto Natales, Puerto Natales

Standing just outside the center of Puerto Natales, Altiplanico Puerto Natales offers a mix of tranquility and access from its hillside location. Puerto Natales is a 5-minute drive away, and you can find a mix of restaurants and sites there, like the Monumento de la Mano and Plaza de Armas. Torres del Paine is a 1.5 or 2-hour drive, depending on if you take your own car or a bus, so you can get your mix of nature and culture with a stay in this hotel.

The hotel takes an organic and minimal approach with its 22 rooms by using raw materials like wood, stone, and cement. The building seems to emerge from the hillside, as its exterior is covered with grassy bricks and windows. Rooms differ mainly in size, and Triple options are available for larger parties. Bathrooms have showers as well as heated towel racks and floors, a bonus after a day of hiking or exploring.

All rooms include views of the Channel of Last Hope fjord, which you can see from common areas like the rooftop terrace. The restaurant offers a tasty mix of Chilean, Peruvian, and French food. While rooms include WiFi, the service can be spotty, so head to these common areas or the lobby if you need a stronger connection.
