A Perfect Stay at Solar Madariaga Hotel – Warm Hospitality and Charm
I recently stayed at Solar Madariaga Hotel in Vicuña, Chile, and it was truly a fantastic experience. This place is an absolute gem, combining excellent service, delicious food, and a rich sense of history and character.
Incredible Staff
The staff at Solar Madariaga are the heart and soul of the hotel. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Whether it was the front desk team, the restaurant staff, or the housekeeping, everyone greeted us with a genuine smile and were incredibly attentive to our needs.
Delicious Meals at the Attached Restaurant
The restaurant at Solar Madariaga is hands down the best place to eat in Vicuña! Every meal we had was a treat and I looked forward the the inclusive breakfast every morning. The quality of food, combined with the cozy, welcoming atmosphere of the restaurant, made it a highlight of our stay. The bar is also renowned for making excellent cocktails.
A Hub for Tourism & Relaxation
One of the best things about Solar Madariaga is how it’s integrated into the local tourism ecosystem. The hotel made it so easy to plan and book activities during our stay, from relaxing massages to guided tours around the region. They connected us with trusted local providers and ensured everything was well-organized, so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. It was such a convenient and stress-free way to explore Vicuña and the surrounding area.
A Beautiful, Historic Building
The hotel itself is housed in a beautiful old building that is full of character and history and has remained under ownership of the same family, and it was great to learn about it's history from the owner.

Very good location. Close to the center of town, but still quiet. We had the private room with bathroom, and it was a comfortable big room with a nice terrace outside with a small table and chairs. A nice garden, and a terrace to watch the night sky from. Host was really nice and helpful, though we didn’t get full benefit of that because of our lack of Spanish skills. They did our laundry for a good price.

Lovely spot in Elqui Valley and very much worth a visit.
Lovely spot in Elqui Valley and very much worth a visit. However, be forewarned if you are not fluent in Spanish and are going for stargazing. We went to the observatory and planetarium and were disappointed to find no English explanation anywhere at all. Nada. My Spanish wasn't good enough to derive much comprehension or pleasure from the narrator's talk on the night sky, as amazing as it was to see. Chileans have a distinctive accent that drops syllables and speak very fast. The guide showed no concern or mercy, unlike most other Chileans we met who slowed down, repeated words, etc. Another bilingual tourist tried gamely to keep us informed.
I did NOT expect much English to be spoken in Chile, of course, but I'd hoped/expected that a tourist attraction with an international reputation would be different. Weeks before we travelled we emailed to ask if there was any English offered and never received a reply. Btw, there was plenty of English in various museums we visited in Santiago and an English audiotour at Neruda's incredible Isla Negra home. More annoying at the observatory tho' was that after the stargazing the whole audience was herded to an area where people were exhorted to buy corny souvenir photos. Unluckily for us, the strangers who shared our van up to the mountain top opted for the pix and we waited 75 minutes in the van til they showed up. Even the driver was fed up but he seemed unable to figure out what to do.

It is a small town with character.
It is a small town with character. You can reach the whole area if you rent a car, and enjoy places like the Artisan Market of Horcón, some of the Pisco distilleries, historical sites, etc. Tons of places to eat around the town Square with excellent food and ice cream. Our stargazing tour in Mamalluca Observatory was excellent. The Gabriela Mistral Museum is informative, easy to follow, and at the best international level.

Vicuña is not much of a destination by itself, but has shops and restaurants clustered around a central plaza. I recommend staying there as a base for exploring Elqui Valley. I suggest a few days in Vicuña for the vineyards and other valley sights, and a couple of days in a beachfront hotel in La Serena before departing.

A pleasant town to walk around, nice main square, many options for restaurants (we enjoyed El Chivato Negro) and the Gabriela Mistral museum is excellent. Well placed to tour the Elqui Valley for the day.

Campo de Cielo is a hidden paradise in the middle of the desert, a true gem near Vicuña. Max, the owner, has crafted everything on his own, resulting in an original and authentic haven with enchanting boho vibes. A must-stay experience that captures the essence of tranquility and creativity!
Lovely place in the sweet town vicuña. We stayed four days. It is close to the main plaza and all the restaurants. The apartment is perfect for two people. It is very spacious and has a neat interior. We enjoyed it a lot!
