Stayed here for 2 nights. The Staff are really helpful and friendly. It's a good location on the hill- 30 minute walk or so to Pablo Neruda's house. Bathrooms are a bit grubby and the hot water was hit and miss. Also not sure when it became okay for people to switch on the lights in a share dorm at... More

I visited the Pata Pata Hostel in the middle of November 2011. It is a very welcoming, cosy, creative and familiar place where guests can feel really comfortable. The staff is more than friendly and openminded to talk with the guests also in a personal manner. Rooms are clean, they have a nice kitchen and you get everything you need.... More

We stayed in a 4 bed dorm in Patapata - beds are comfy, showers are good, plenty of hot water available all the time. We cooked our own meals in the kitchen, which has everything you need. The outdoor bbq is great too. The hostel is very welcoming, and the staff went out of their way to help us. Lots... More

We stayed to days in order to find an alojamiento as we stay here for five months. PataPata was the perfect place to start discovering Valpo. It's on the beautiful cerro alegre and not only the surroundings but the hostel itself is so colourful! The price is very fair, the kids are so sweet and the breakfast excellent! (Loved the... More

This was the only hostel that I stayed in in South America that offered both a friendly, helpful, family atmosphere, (the manager and his family live on site as well as the assistant) as well as a fantastic open environment, full of life and easy to meet other travelers. Colourfully decorated and immaculately clean, with the best breakfast I have... More

I can safely say that after traveling extensively through South America, PataPata has to be one of the best hostels i have ever stayed in. I expected to stay two nights but ended up staying a week. The environment was perfect for solo travelers; not too big, very welcoming. And the staff was out of this world helpful. From the... More

When I first walked in, the woman who greeting me and showed me the place was so nice I forgave it for its many short comings (paper-thin walls, uncomfortable beds, dirty bathrooms with little hot water). The location is great and Valparaiso is an amazing place so I extended my stay. After being shuffled around from room to room, having... More
