In spite of a one night stay only, as my purpose was to see the pitturesque scenery of Valparaiso port and the charming hills and antique little cable cars, the Thomas Somerscale Boutique Hotel will most definetely remain as one of the most comfortable and unforgetable hotels I've ever been to. It's location at Cerro Alegre makes most the sightseeing... More

There were a massive road repairs going on all over the area around the hotel, so the map was useless. But finally getting to within half a block of where we thought it was, a very kind passer by asked if we were lost? We were! He told us we were very close to Thomas Somerscales, and insisted on carrying... More

I would actually give this hotel 4 1/2, not 5, for a variety of smaller things. Overall, the hotel made our stay in Valpo very nice and safe. I wanted to explain something, to be fair to the hotel. We checked in, bargained, and got a lower rate if we paid cash. We paid, and did not get a receipt.... More

The terrace was really a tiny little porch with a tiny table squeezed in. The room was stuffy and cluttered, but It did have some pretty magnificent viewsof the... More

What a fantastic place! The house itself is increadible, like going back in time, but to a glorious time. Every detail of the house is beautiful. The room is spotless clean and very cozy. We stayed in room n.7, witch is in the top floor of the house, like an attic, very cozy and yet with a lot of space.... More

This is undoubtedly a lovely hotel in a great location, but unfortunately my stay was ruined by the attempt of the receptionist to run a scam on my room rate. He offered me a $30 reduction in the rate if I paid by cash. I agreed to this as it didn't seem too inconvenient to make a small saving -... More

After driving around Valparaiso for 2 hours with a GPS and asking many people we found the hotel. . The owner and her son are very nice people. The view was great. We had no trouble when we walked to the center. The neighborhood is very interesting with good restaurants. More
