GoodStayed with family · For leisure
Bad smell in the room covered up with fragrance. Read this about another guest commenting in the comments section two weeks prior and it was still present. Not nice.

The hotel is in a great location in Santiago, about 10 minutes from the Cathedral and near lots of retail and local shops and restaurants. Rooms were clean and bathrooms are modern. The receptionist helped us with transportation to the airport. Would definitely stay here again.

The staff is very nice and very helpful.
The hotel is clean, small but nice. The breakfast is also good. You have Zara and Massimo Dutti right next to the hotel which is a sin. From the airport you take the bus 6A and the bus stop is just at the entrance of the hotel. If I come again I will definitely stay at Hotel Universal.

Great location ten minutes walk from the railway station and five minutes walk from the nearest access to the old town. Clean well-appointed room and friendly staff. I'd absolutely stay here again.

Below averageSolo stay
Absolutely shocking value for money - really annoying to be given the worst rooms when you're travelling on your own
Cleanliness left a lot to be desired - the bathroom bin was full with the previois guest's rubbish and the hair dryer was dirty, broken (with ancient sticky hair around it) and certainly not in presentable condition for hotel guests.
Mattress and pillow reaally dated and uncomfortable.
I have stayed in this hotel a few times due to its excellent location, but never again!!
