Impressions

My friends and I embarked on a whimsical journey to The Fox Hostel, and as we stepped through its charming facade, we felt as though we had entered a bustling marketplace of hospitality. The hostel, much like a lively bazaar, offered an array of convenient services that catered to our every need. The presence of nearby shops and commercial services seamlessly integrated into the fabric of our stay, much like the vibrant stalls and vendors that populate a bustling square.

As we strolled through the hostel's vicinity, we found ourselves immersed in a vibrant tapestry of convenience. The nearby shops and commercial services were akin to friendly traders offering their wares, providing us with everything from forgotten essentials to delightful mementos of our journey. Much like navigating through a lively market, our stay at The Fox Hostel was enriched by the seamless access to these amenities, enhancing our travel experience with the joy of exploration and the comfort of convenience.

The staff at this hotel were incredibly friendly and helpful, going out of their way to make my stay enjoyable. They spoke fluent English and were happy to chat about their city and country. The location was fantastic, just a short walk to all the bars, cafes, and restaurants in the Bellavista area. Additionally, it was close to San Cristobal Hill and the huge park nearby. The room itself was a nice size and I had a calm and peaceful stay, as my window faced the backyard of the house and not the street. The breakfast provided was plentiful and delicious.
Couldn't stay longer.
The room was fantastic, with a beautiful design and comfortable furnishings. The bathroom was well equipped with a hot shower and everything was spotlessly clean. The staff was super friendly and went above and beyond to help us, giving great recommendations and even arranging complicated travel plans. The hotel's location was excellent, within walking distance of San Cristobal Hill and the vibrant Bellavista neighborhood. The courtyard garden and comfortable living room were perfect places to relax and hang out. The WiFi was also reliable and fast.
Nothing at all.
We had a fantastic stay at this hostel. The staff was amazing, always going above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and comfortable. The rooms were nice and very clean, and the WiFi was excellent. The breakfast was delicious and there was plenty of it. The location was great, just a 5-minute walk from the main street with all the bars and restaurants. It was also quite close to the metro and the funicular for cerro san cristobal, making it easy to explore the city.
We loved the private balcony outside our room, providing a cozy and relaxing space. The staff went above and beyond to create a welcoming atmosphere, allowing us to check-in early and use the facilities after checkout. The basic kitchen was equipped with everything we needed, but if we wanted a break from cooking, the speed chicken place across the street offered delicious food. Additionally, the owner was extremely helpful and accommodating, waking up early to prepare breakfast for our Cordillera trip. The location was convenient, with the central square, cathedral, Vega market, and Bellavista and Pio Nono street all within a 10-minute walk. The hotel provided a peaceful and quiet environment for a good night's sleep.
All was perfect.
The staff at this hostel are amazing and very welcoming, making it easy to connect with locals. They also speak good English. The location is great, being close to the metro, Bellavista area, and San Cristobal Hill, all within walking distance. it offers good value for money and has comfy beds.
