“Nice Boutique Hotel - But The Traffic Noise!!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 November 2011

Everything said on TR about Ulytramar being clean; having character; having cheerful, friendly staff, having a modern style - are all true. And it was a pleasant place to stay, perched on top of the hills of the facinating and charachter filled city. But most rooms on both floors directly face the street below and it is hard to avoid the traffic noise both evening and early morning. The steep streets mean that cars and busses and motor bikes have to really get their vehicle going to get up the hill - and that results in unavoidable street noise. Theer are a few rooms that do not sit on the street so, if you are coming here, perhaps request one of those. The only other ´knock´is the lack of a bar fridge in the rooom.

Room Tip: Ask for one of the few that do not face the street - you might avoid traffic noise

“Great Place!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

We spent one night foor a romantic weekend in this lovely hotel, and we loved it!
The hotel is freshly renovated and they made a great job in the design of the place. The staff was very helpful and polite. It is in a walking distance to great restaurants and attractions, but not next door, which actually was good. It is reachable by public transportation and car, and well, you can walk if you dare go uphill (but that´s Valparaiso!).
We would return in a hearbeat!

“Highly Recommended”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

We went to this hotel recently in spring of this year. We found it a very nice hotel, very quiet, clean, boutique as we like, good service and very peaceful. Things that impress us were the very nice and new furniture, the beautiful and modern style of the rooms and of the interior of the hotel. The rooms are very confortable, with good beds, a nice terrace and with a wonderful view of all Valparaiso's bay. It has a very good breakfast. Also its ubicated in a very nice and distinguish place of Valparaiso. I highly recommend this boutique hotel in Valparaiso, specially for couples, little group of friends and families.

“Nice boutique hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 September 2011

Located up on the hills of Valparaiso, a city declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO, Ultramar hotel is a modern boutique hotel built on what used to be a miners lodging. The original building dates from 1907. The Ultramar Hotel was lately built and has already been renovated.
Our room was comfortable, well heated, with simple furnishings and nicely decorated. We had a magnificent view of the bay.
Common areas are decorated with a minimalist look. Free internet is available. It has a large terrace with a great view of the ocean.
They serve a nice complete breakfast with fresh fruits, yogurt, eggs, jam, coffee and toasts.
The hotel is clean, staff very attentive, service excellent.
Altogether a very good place to stay, especially if you like to walk and take photos when you visit an interesting city like this one.
