Besides Hotel Colonial, are there any other less expensive hotels in Santiago?
We're looking for something, clean and with air conditioning.
Thanks!!

It's a great hotel, but it's almost 3 times the price of the Hotel Colonial.

I don't know if the OP is going to find another hotel (with air conditioning) as inexpensive as the Colonial. They may have raised their rates, but when I stayed there it was under $20US (including tax).

I think you are right about Colonial being the only cheapest & cleanest (w/aire) in Santiago. They raised their rates to about $21 (including tax) If the OP really want to penny-pinch, maybe Hotel Lima on the corner, RD$100 a night (fan included):(

Ed,

My mom and little sister stayed at the Hotel Colonial for 3 weeks in Dec of 2005. It was still $20 then. However, they didn't like it. They said it was too noisy. And to top it all off they stole a few perfumes and 2 make up kits from them.

They are doing construction next door in the parking lot area and if your room faces that area, you will be awakened early in the day by the loud sound of construction. Never experienced theft though, always leave money in the drawer, I hope this is not a new thing with the cleaning staff.

Ricardo,

They were in one of the rooms facing the construction. They couldn't change the room because the place was packed. I asked my mom if she reported the theft and said she didn't bother. Through out the years I've known many people that have stayed in the hotel. This was the first time I heard of theft there. I was really surprised when she told me that.
