7.3/10
A practical downtown budget base, with friendly staff but cramped rooms and uneven comfort.
Sahara Inn is a no-frills 3-star in central Santiago, best treated as a convenient place to sleep rather than somewhere to linger. We'd consider it for a short, budget-conscious visit: La Moneda and metro connections are nearby, and Booking.com and Expedia guests repeatedly praise helpful staff, cleanliness and value. Private bathrooms, Wi-Fi and an included breakfast cover the essentials.
The trade-offs are real: guests describe dated interiors, small rooms and especially tight bathrooms, while breakfast offers little variety. Recent Expedia reviews flag noise through the walls, and several Booking.com guests report unreliable heating or needing reception to switch it on. There is no elevator. We'd skip it if quiet, spacious rooms or step-free access matter. Parking costs extra; international visitors should confirm tax-exemption paperwork and accepted payment methods before arrival.
