Cerro Alegre, Valparaíso, Chile
A UNESCO World Heritage estate perched above the Pacific — reimagined as Chile's most intimate luxury retreat.
"One of South America's
most extraordinary
places to
rest"
Originally constructed in 1897 as a merchant's mansion on Cerro Alegre — Valparaíso's most celebrated hill — Casa Vertiente has stood witness to the city's golden maritime age, its rebellious bohemian decades, and its renaissance as a UNESCO World Heritage destination.
Today, meticulously restored and reimagined, it is Chile's most intimate luxury hotel: 32 bespoke suites, a clifftop spa with Pacific panoramas, the acclaimed La Pendiente restaurant, and a refined casino lounge that carries the spirit of the hotel's legendary original card rooms.
Six worlds of pleasure, all within one historic estate on the hills of Valparaíso
Our award-winning kitchen celebrates Chile's extraordinary larder — from Atacama sea bass and Patagonian lamb to Maule valley wines. The dining room's century-old arched windows frame the Pacific at every meal.
Suspended above the Pacific on our private terrace, Altura Spa fuses Mapuche healing traditions with contemporary wellness therapies. The ocean is your backdrop for every treatment.
No two suites are alike. Each is named after a Valparaíso artist and furnished with original works from Chile's most celebrated painters, alongside handmade textiles and antique restoration pieces.
The crown of Casa Vertiente — a heated rooftop pool with unobstructed views of 42 coloured hills and the Pacific horizon. Open year-round, with a pool bar serving Chilean craft cocktails.
A discreet nod to the mansion's legendary history — our intimate casino lounge offers classic table games, rare pisco flights, and live jazz on weekends. For guests seeking that extra spark.
We are the city's best guide. Private street art tours with local artists, historic funicular rides, wine tasting at coastal vineyards, sunset sailing on the Pacific — curated experiences that no guidebook can replicate.
No suite repeats itself. Every room is a curated world of Chilean art and colonial craftsmanship
Named for the hills themselves, the Cerro Suite opens onto a private terrace overlooking the city's famous painted rooftops and the silver Pacific beyond.

"Waking up to a painted city and the Pacific from our Mural Suite was the single most beautiful morning of our lives. The concierge organised a private street art walk that no tourist could ever find alone."
"La Pendiente served the finest sea bass I have eaten anywhere in South America. The Altura Spa with the Pacific behind you — there is nothing quite like it. El Naipe casino was a wonderful surprise."
"Casa Vertiente feels like staying inside a living museum — but one with impeccable beds and the warmest staff I've ever encountered. We cancelled the rest of our itinerary and stayed three extra nights."
