The property is very well located. It is a beautiful building with comfortable rooms and a great service. Breakfast buffet is awesome. Never had a comparable experience in another other hotel. The amount of food and the variety was huge including chilean typical plates. The personnel is very helpful and knowledgeable. The wine tour at Viña Sta Cruz was a rich experience with wine tasting and spectacular views of the vineyard. The Museo de Colchagua is a 5 stars including history of our World during BC period and pre and post Columbus time. Plus chilean history, folklore and handcraft articles. In a summary an amazing experience to be repeated in the future.

Bad night

Hotel is mostly fine. The room is ok but the bathrooms are uncomfortable. The hotel has a museum attached to it that it’s truly interesting. The restaurant I s fine and breakfast is good. Our last night they apparently planned some repairs in the room above use so at 2 in the morning we had enough and had to get dress and go to the lobby to complain, few minutes latter they stopped the work.

A gem in the wine country

The Plaza is a gem in the wine country. It is old but well maintained. The architecture is interesting and features many items like bas relief sculpture and stained glass. We had a comfortable room facing an inner courtyard which was quiet. Outside rooms on the plaza might have a lot of traffic noise. The grounds are beautiful, with a small stream running through the property. The restaurant opens onto a pleasant, tree shaded outside courtyard by the outdoor pool. The is an indoor pool and spa but we did not visit. We had good lunch on the day we arrived. We went to breakfast each morning and found very mixed results, ranging from a great omelette bar on the weekend to weekday buffet that featured cold, hard bacon and lukewarm, mostly liquid scrambled eggs. The service was attentive and friendly, however. The concierge, Pablo, was fantastic. We had a great time chatting with him and getting laughs for our weak attempts at Spanish (we are English speakers, and found most of the staff could handle this well). He helped us plan excursions into the wine country, recommended great places to eat, and gave advice on the best way to drive to Vińa del Mar (our next stop). The hotel is next to a museum and a casino. We spent several hours enjoying the museum, but did not check out the casino. Maybe next time.

Wow! We had a fantastic time at the Santa Cruz Plaza hotel. From the moment we arrived, the staff was extremely attentive and helpful. The property is beautiful, restaurant delicious, and it’s very conveniently located. Parking was easy and secure, too. A big thanks to the hotel staff for going above-and-beyond. Highly recommend!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hotel is old but has some nice features. The food in the restaurant on the first night was excellent. The 2nd night service was terrible. They got the order wrong and only brought 1 meal out even after the order was the same, they brought the wrong potato’s out and I never got any food. We complained the safe wasn’t working on the first day. That has not been repaired by the time we left. The towels were awful and had seen better days. They gave us 2 small bath towels and 1 hand towel between the 2 of us. Sadly I would not recommend this venue. Just awful and spoiled our trip to Santa Cruz.
No room service, even after speaking to reception at 1830hrs. Came back to room at 10pm. Still not cleaned. Went to reception who were useless. Wanted to clean the room at 10pm
Just dumped fresh towels in the bathroom and didn��’t clean the room after complaining to reception at 1830hrs
Never replenished the Coffee or fresh cups. 2 days of cups left untouched. No facility for making tea. I don’t drink coffee only tea.

Nice hotel in Cochagua Valley

Very nice hotel in Colchagua Valley , close to La Ruta del Vino where you can taste most of the best chilean wines. Good hotel , the only thing I didn't like was the room with carpet, tile would be much better. Don't miss restaurant La Famiglia de Santis just a block away and Viña Santa Cruz just 15 miles from the hotel.

We normally stay at VIP hotel as they treat you special. We do not mind spending a little more. Room was not upgraded. In fact it was probably one of the worst rooms in the hotel as we looked out to white wall. With all the great balconies they have this is how they treat VIP’s. Will not return here

Hotel Santa Cruz has a lot of PROs and a few CONs. I’m an American who travels frequently to other countries and use reviews as a guide. will be very honest with my observations. PROs = property is very nice with resort feel in the quaint city of Santa Cruz. Location was perfect! grounds beautiful and our room was spacious with nice view from 4th floor to the square. Security guarded with a lot to do on property. Ate there twice, both great. BBQ dinner was fantastic. good experience with concierge and restaurant staff. Santa Cruz is safe, easy to walk. CONS = floor/carpet in our room was very dirty. Glad they gave slippers, carper needs a good cleaning. disappointing hotel tour assistance (RoutaTours) and manager we spoke to about a RoutaTours issue not good. We didn’t find all front desk staff to be friendly. My husband speaks fluent Spanish, so it was not a translation issue, more a hospitality issue. RoutaTours took $80 from us and said we were “out of luck” when the wine tour they did not honor one of the tours when we ubered to the location. Hotel did not refund or reschedule. Thier response was that the winery took the money paid and won’t refund back. Manager said there was nothing she could do. Concierge was helpful telling us where to go on our own so we could avoid booking tours from hotel after that. There are a lot of children and families. If you don’t want children running around, playing in pool, screeching, etc., you might want to go elsewhere.
