What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Excellent little rural hotel with very nice hosts! The hotel is located in a very tiny village, very quiet and peaceful. Nearest restaurant, bar, or grocery store is in the next village just a few kilometers away. You can also get water, drinks and small snacks at the hotel. I would definitely stay here again!”
“This charming hotel in a rural small town setting has friendly owners. Mauri and Maite were very helpful in recommending hiking and sightseeing routes through the region. We actually stayed in the hotel’s independent flat on Ochagavía. The three bedroom flat is spacious, clean, freshly remodeled and well-stocked with everything you’ll need. High points of our stay included long hikes through lovely scenery and stops to enjoy the signature local cuisine. We were sorry to leave.”
“My friend and I stumbled upon this hotel while touring the region, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience. The location is beautiful and peaceful, the room was bright and airy, and the owners are extremely friendly and helpful. The self-serve "honesty" bar in the common area has a pretty impressive selection of drinks, and the morning breakfast was fresh and satisfying. The hotel has great information on regional hikes as well as some good recommendations for local restaurants. I'd definitely recommend staying here if you're in the area.”
“If you’re walking the GR11, this is a great place for a rest day. Awesome breakfast. They’ll pick you up and drop you off back in town too, just message on WhatsApp. Highly recommended.”
“This place is awesome! The hospitality of the hosts was above and beyond my highest expectations. The room was very clean, comfortable and tastefully decorated. The breakfast here was great and well worth the extra charge. The young couple who own and operate Besaro are kind, hard working, gracious and helpful. I give them my highest recommendation, and I look forward to returning the next time I am in the area.”
