Very friendly Staff, comfortable and Clean room and very tasty made from scratch breakfast. Do not drive a car to this location unless you are willing to juggle.... and if so do an automatic transmission one never a shift stick unless you are comfortable; very steep and narrow streets.

Olde world charm
The warmth of the two hosts was the key. They made us feel at home from the beginning to the end of our stay. The place is a grand old house converted into a small hotel and is situated on one of the several hills that make this city so extraordinary. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

The Grand Hotel is for people who would like a local experience. The hosts were very helpful and made us very welcome supporting us to see the sights in the city we wanted to visit. The views from the terrace are amazing and made the stay pleasant.

Charming place with a very nice view over the bay
The hostess is very nice and helpful and very welcome. The hostel is charming. The only thing is the location is uphill and the stairs were in preparation when we were there.

Valparaiso Oct17
The road outside the hotel was dug up so the area around it resembled a building site, not the hotels fault but it detracted from the experience of staying in the city. The two girls running the hotel are very friendly and nothing too much trouble, nice sitting chatting to them and other guests of an evening in the lounge. Hotel needed an upgrade, my shower door didn't fit properly and kept falling off but the room was clean and tidy with good view over city. I would prefer to stay in Cerro Concepcion where restaurants are much better, I couldn't find one around hotel that was any good.

Delightful Stay!
The hosts at the Grand House are amazing women -- very kind. We arrived late (around 8:00 p.m.) and were offered hot tea and cookies. Breakfasts were excellent. On the day we wanted to go to Vina del Mar to see the sights our hosts offered us a ride. This is an quaint and super comfortable place to stay. But, as other reviewers noted it is not for guests who can't climb steps! Wonderful place to stay!!!

A hidden gem in Valparaiso
This boutique hotel is a hidden gem at the top of a hill. I was living at the second floor and the view is just amazing. The room is clean and elegant. The staff are super friendly and there is a variety of antique collections. The breakfast is plenty and all are very delicious. This hotel is close to the Valparaiso site and other tourist attractions as well. Overall, I highly recommend this boutique gem.

A wonderful welcome to Valparaiso and Chile
Doris and Carolina ( hope that is the correct spelling) were great. They welcomed us with tea on the terrace with the amazing views. The room also looked out over Valparaiso. I would certainly recommend the hotel.

Our hosts were really lovely and tried to be very accommodating and helpful. We were not in the area that we had hoped to be so it was more difficult to get around. The breakfast was inadequate in terms of the quality of the food - canned fruit, sliced bread, etc. (though the eggs were good) and that was a disappointment as we are more used to home baked goods and fresh fruit, etc. The beds were too soft for our liking.

Grand House B&B Victorian Style
The Grand House was on the old residential part of the town without any funicular. Be prepared to cab it or use a Collectivo to climb up the steep slopes. The house itself was great and the landladies were absolutely phenomenal. They tended to us really well and were very hospitable.
