“City life!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

Having looked on the web at various options on where to stay in Valparaiso we decided it had to be the Brighton because of its location on Atkinson Walk, its terrace & weekend music. We got the last available room for Sat/Sun night, room 3 I think it was downstairs, and from reading previous reviews on Trip Advisor we were prepared for it being a bit small and a bit noisy - how right they were! Bedroom v cosy but with good sized wardrobe space located in a little lobby between the bedroom & bathroom. The shower room had a very small shower & large wooden beam running diagonally through it supporting the upstairs terrace! Definitely one to watch when getting up through the night to use the loo! The waitress who showed us to our room was exceptionally nice and spoke some English. She recommended we booked a table in the restaurant if we wanted to attend the live jazz music which was on that night starting 11pm, which we duly did. We went off and found a great restaurant Vinilo on Almirante Montt (10 min walk fm hotel) again very friendly staff with good English the same owners also have a great Pisco bar a few doors up which was a relatively new concept and while I enjoyed a pisco cocktail my husband was introduced to some smooth pisco of a quality just for sipping. Having had a great night already we headed back to the Brighton to take up our table & order some postres, cafe & some wine - there is a min charge but is easily met if you are there awhile. The jazz performer, a lady of a certain age, finally got going after 11.30pm accompanied by a young guy on guitar. The place was full and it had a great buzz about it, which went on until almost 3am. We slipped out about 2am by which time it had turned into a poor karako however our room being directly below we still heard every song! After that it was the drummers in the plaza below played on until dawn, which was less enjoyable. Sunday night was very quiet!

“Quirky B&B offers affordable charm and hospitality in a great location to those who do not need luxury.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012 via mobile

We stayed in one of the two attic rooms on a Quiet Sunday night. The exceptionally helpful staff, the storybook location, the incredible view, the music from the Plaza far below, and the budget rate more than made up for the quirkiness of the old building. If you want 5 stars, go to Vina del Mar. But for charm and historic atmosphere in an artsy area near the port, stay here.

“Great location, excellent views, and a friendly staff.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

Charming, small B&B. Quirky best describes the Brighton. I stayed in the "X" room, the only room, I believe, with a balcony. My room key was a skeleton key and not very secure, however I had no issues with theft. Breakfast at the Brighton was very good. All in all a great place to stay while in Valparaiso.

“Beautiful view darling hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

After an extremely long travel time from the US, arriving at the Brighton was such a treat! I'll say right away that when I travel I do NOT want an American hotel so this was right up my alley. The rooms were funky and the bathrooms even more so - I could look out onto the street and talk to people while showering if I wanted to - it was great. The rooms were clean, cute, and the beds were comfortable. The view fromt he deck of the hotel is worth the price of staying there - which was reasonable. The staff was very friendly and tried hard to be helpful. Most of the staff tried very hard to speak English while we tried to speak Spanish - Christian Martinez was particularly helpful. Having breakfast on the balcony was heavenly. Do stay here!

Room Tip: We stayed in two rooms because our daughter joined us 2 days into the trip and we liked both of them...

“Lovely location, attentive service, wonderful views!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2012

This place has a terrace overlooking the harbor with great views of Valparaiso. The pisco sours are good and the breakfast was one of the best we had on our entire trip. Friendly staff and a full service restaurant make it a great place to stay.
