SCEL/SCL- Santiago International Airport Chile - Holiday Inn - August 2026

I had booked a room at the airport Holiday Inn.  Room rates here, even with discount, were north of £100 pounds. What it did give me is a view in exactly the same direction as I could see from the link veranda. I made an additional six frames that without the hotel, I would not have got to see due to the lateness of the hour. 

The Holiday Inn seems to be split into two separate parts. I had room 355 and was allocated this after asking at reception for a view of the international terminal. The rooms with the same view are all in a crescent like shape. The number range is 352-377.   This part of the hotel is only 3 floors high I would suggest that rooms 361 - 362 are as avoided as they are right outside the lift.  I have previously sent a message with my booking asking for an airport view, but was told this wouldn't be possible and rooms are all allocated on arrival.  The hotel has a restaurant and bar, but its possible  to get supplies from either of the terminals which are a short walk away. I went to the domestic terminal restaurant for lunch and then went to the news agent shop for beers to take to the hotel. The hotel does not have a fridge nor USB or USC charging points but is otherwise very modern and worked perfect on this occasion.

SCEL/SCL - Santiago de Chile - Diego del Amagro Hotel - 27th April.

I stayed at the Diego del Amagro Hotel which gives great views of the Easterly runway and all outbounds from the West can be seen but not read.

SCEL/SCL - Santiago - Holiday Inn SCL Airport - April 2025.

I booked a night at the Holiday Inn SCL Airport. Top floor room facing South (606) in the direction of the International Terminal allowed all departures from both 17L&R to be seen and read off as they climbed out above the terminal buildings. You aren’t high enough to see anything landing or moving on the ground. Presumably if arrivals are on the 35s, you’d see the arrivals on short finals above the terminal. Rooms on the 5/6th floors facing south are ideal, anything lower then there is another block to the hotel that could impede views. Outside the hotel there are plenty of places to sit outside either terminal, and an open walkway between the international and domestic terminals with lots of benches to sit and monitor departures.
