Walk through the doors of Hotel Bidasoa and you’ll instantly feel it—the air is cleaner, the light softer, and the welcome unmistakably warm. Nestled in the upscale Vitacura neighborhood of Santiago, this family-run boutique hotel redefines modern sustainability without sacrificing an ounce of style.
95% Renewable Energy, 100% Authentic Commitment
In 2023, Hotel Bidasoa was named the Most Sustainable Luxury Boutique Hotel in the country. It runs on 95% renewable energy, powered by a mix of aerothermal heating, solar panels, and wind energy storage. From temperature regulation to lighting and water heating, every function is designed to minimize carbon impact.

Even the building itself is a feat of bioclimatic design. Smart insulation, abundant natural light, and air-purifying plants throughout the interiors help reduce the need for mechanical heating and cooling.
