Totoralillo accommodation from AU$69

Primera Hacienda Hotel Boutique exceeded our expectations. The property, built in 1870, is very beautiful. The common spaces are nicely arranged and decorated. The rooms that we viewed were all clean and tastefully decorated and our room was very comfortable. The dining area is quite cozy and inviting. The included breakfasts were very good and filling. We also took the option of eating in for our evening meals and were treated to wonderful Chilean cuisine. Most of all, our hostess and hotel manager, Maria, treated us like family from the moment we arrived. She looked after every need to ensure that we were comfortable and enjoying our time in La Serena. The hotel is also conveniently located within easy walking distance to the city centre. We highly recommend Primera Hacienda Hotel Boutique.

Excellent

This hotel was an excellent choice for an American. The room was big and very clean. Some of the staff spoke English and were very helpful getting around and finding a taxi. There is no room service. The attached restaurant was not good for a non-Spanish speaker -- no printed menus just online. I could access the menu but there was no English version. Even though I have a pretty good Spanish vocabulary, I couldn't understand the food choices and no one was there to explain. But, there are lots of restaurants around that were more than sufficient.
