グラン ホテル ゲルヴァソーニ(Gervasoni Hotel Boutique)

This hotel is in a very good location. It has charm and character. The staff could be a bit better. The male at the front desk was the most helpful. We got there before 3 which is check in time and our room was not ready so we rested for a while in the hotel, then went out till 3. There are a lot of stairs at this hotel and no elevator. We had a nice room, however it was quite noisy and it wasn’t the hotel that was noisy, it was the surrounding area. Also. i thought the bathroom was a bit dangerous. We had a shower tub combination but with the piece of glass they way it was, was kind of hard to get in and out of it. I also don’t care to reach behind me for toilet paper. The bathroom seemed awkward to me. I would not recommend this hotel for a person that has trouble walking or climbing stairs. I didn’t find anything special about this hotel but the location is good.

A well preserved heritage hotel with helpful staff. The area has lots of hip cafes and restaurants. There is an enormous amount of street art. Things to be aware of: The hotel is in the hilly part of the old city Valparaiso. You can expect very narrow cobbled streets and very steep climbs with lots of steps. Parking on the street is difficult.

Located on the Paseo Gervasoni at the top of Ascensor Concepcion. Gran Hotel Gervasoni is in the heart all the Valparaiso’s attractions and sights. It is an older manor home so no elevator and the stairs creek but that is a part of its charm. Reception staff was very friendly and helpful for an English -speaking traveler. Tourist map of Valparaiso was available at the reception. There was an in room safe and liquid body wash, shampoo, and conditioner were available. The breakfast room was bright and airy with a harbor view. My room overlooked the paseo and was quiet after about 10 pm. The Fisher steps and Paseo Galvez are within 1-2 min walk. I’ll defiantly stay here on any future trips to Valparaiso. If arriving at Terminal Rodoviario bus terminal any number of city buses (200 CLP) will take you to Blanco and Gomez Carreño (about 5 min) where you can walk 2 blocks to Ascensor Concepcion (300 CLP) and easily ride up to Paseo Gervasoni and a 1 min walk to the hotel. Cars can go to the end of Papudo (1 block form Templeman and Papudo)

This "hotel" is more akin to a BB than a typical hotel. It seems a converted mansion from days gone by. As a result you get aged, small rooms with small beds and tight bathrooms that, along with the common areas, creak and crunch as you and your neighbors walk around. It can be annoying in the middle of the night when your trying to get some sleep. Breakfast on the patio overlooking the bay was a highlight. The location is a high traffic area and that means noise at peak times. The Service was great and the place has its charm but be warned; the noises due to the age of the place and busy tourist location can be a problem.

Avoid. The worst value for money I have experienced anywhere. It desperately needs a clean as well as a proper lick of paint, it’s very, very noisy, the breakfasts are dreadful with hot black water rather than coffee, the bathrooms were infeasibly tiny and manky, the TV picture was terrible, we were there for 4 nights and the rooms were cleaned once. We had to ask for replacement toilet paper. And it’s expensive, if it were a budget $35 a night job I could forgive, but the place is massively overpriced. Some of the staff were OK but the general attitude was. “Who gives a toss? We’ve got your money.”

The building is historic with much character. It does not look new, because it isn't. It is beautiful and interesting. The staff is very kind and breakfast was delightful. We hope to return in the future.

I didn't like the loft on room 10 because it was right under the terrace cafe so all the chair dragging was loud and right above you. Also, the hotel needs some furniture updating. Staff was great and hotel was very clean. Nice views!

The old building is full of charm and the view from our room was gorgeous. Breakfast, which was included, was delicious. There is a patio bar with excellent views where one can sit and enjoy the view. The hotel is located in a colorful neighborhood convenient for walking. Super- friendly and accomodaing staff. We'll be back!

The hotél is añ interesting former mansion filled ŵith antiques. Wheñ one leaves the fro nt door, which is kept locked, one is assaíled by the smell of urine, due to men drinking openly ⁰on the overlook path. NOTE...If ÿou have a lot of heavy luggage, the stairswill make you regret your choice.
