Wonderful

The hotel can not be reached by car(Uber) as they have to stop as the end of the road it’s a pedestrian road, so you have to take your cases down the end of the road which was fine for us but if you are less mobile this hotel would not be good for you as it has no lift.
The benefits outweigh the positives , great views from rooftop bar and restaurant; very clean and staff friendly. I would suggest you use Uber , it’s easy and a lot cheaper than the hotel booking you a taxis to the cruise port.
Loved the neighborhood and the view from the restaurant on the outdoor patio is amazing! Convenient location if you are taking a cruise. The hotel offers a shuttle. Only downfall is the hotel is hard to find. It’s situated down a path where no cars can go. You will need to walk a bit, and go down some stairs to get to the property.
The hotel staff were very nice and helpful. The hotel was located in a lane way not accessible to cars. We had to drag our luggage down the lane and steps to get to the hotel which was on top of a hill. The hotel room had no air conditioning and no closets. It was quaint. The restaurant was great. Lovely views and the food was delicious. The breakfast was very good and healthy. The service was very good.
Simple but charming hotel. Stay here for the view, and tranquility… when the pigeons are not fighting outside 😁 I did not sleep well because of the birds and general noise (obviously completely out of hotel control) but also because the room was stuffy. If you open windows the noise becomes more prevalent, but without opening there is no airflow. Highly recommend the hotel put a floor fan in each room. Otherwise, very kind staff and cute restaurant upstairs.
Fauna Hotel is well located within few steps from Reina Victoria elevator. Staff is kind and helpful, they recommend activities and places to eat. Room was comfortable, nice good quality bed, bathroom has a good size too. We got a room with amazing sea view. Restaurant at the hotel has a very beautiful view too and good food for lunch.
Cons:
Breakfast is really fair and eggs are available upon request and are not well prepared, bread was awful. Very little offer and fruits not looking fresh either.
Our room with sea view was extremely noisy
Fauna hotel was an amazing experience in a beautiful location. The rooms are adorable and very clean. The breakfast is delicious and the view from the hotel is extraordinary.
FANTASTIC! The hotel is located in one of the main walking alleys in Valparaíso. The staff was great, gave us advise and were always helpful. They have a great restaurant with a terrace that rounds up the experience. The only thing to consider is that it might not be accesible to people with reduced mobility.
Very unique hotel. Perfect location for walking and discovering the area with graffiti everywhere. The staff are lovely and helpful with heavy luggage. Thankyou Sebastion!!
I loved being at the top of the hill and near fun dining and shopping options! The hotel is very unique and fun and the terrace restaurant has fantastic views! The staff was very friendly as well.
Amazing building spread through a number of original Valparaiso houses.
Great location in the middle of Cerro Alegre.
Great staff, professional and friendly
Claudia from reception couldn’t do enough to make my stay one yo remember.
Will go back for sure.
Very beautiful and rustc. The restaurant was fantastic. Be advised the hotel is not accessible by car. One must walk a short distance along a pedestrian way.
Really unique hotel in an excellent area.
Staff and restaurant were awesome. Only thing we didn't like was that the Wifi was not great and unfortunately that is an important thing for us when we travel.
