Cute Hotel!

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 12 Sept 2016
A quaint little hotel right at the edge of the lake. The service and amenities were good, but the rooms are a bit smaller, especially the bathroom. Ask for a room facing the volcano. It's about a five minute walk to the main area of town where you can find art shops and restaurants. Would recommend if you're staying just one night and want the views and a convenient location. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and served right as we walked downstairs. However, if you stay in off season, don't expect the restaurant or bar to be open. The rooms do get chilly, so pack warm!

Small hotel run like a B&B.

Pros: Great location a couple of blocks from everything in Pucon. Quiet street next to the lake. Fantastic hosts, breakfast is 9-11 am, but we asked to have it as early as 6:30 and it was ready and no problem. If you want more than just basic South American breakfast, just ask. Great off street parking area. Wonderful bedding. Oldest hotel in Pucon.

Cons: Have to ask for hot water to be turned on at certain times of day. No TV in the room (not really needed in Pucon).

Room tip: Room 9 is a triple, 3 single beds on the second floor. The window looks directly to the lake, look out the window and see the Volcano.

This hotel is really wonderful, old fashioned with but with all the necessary facilities and very reasonably priced. The lady who was in charge when we stayed (Tere) was most helpful and super nice. The place has character, is very comfortable, views and location are difficult to match. Next to a lovely bay with a small port and facing the Villarrica volcano. Good breakfast and plenty of parking. Close to restaurants and to the center of Pucon. We enthusiastically recommend it.

Room tip: Ask for room N°8 if you can, it is on the corner and has windows facing the lake and the volcano. Don't miss the sunset view from this room.

This place was really charming, well-maintained, right next to the lake. It is a historic home that has been well-maintained and really gives you a sense of place. It is a very short walk to all the restaurants and shopping. Being right across the lake you can see it anytime you like (morning - sunset as you like) - and as it sits back from the town, it has the best view of the volcano. We are a gay married couple and felt very comfortable there. All our need were seen to and the Anna's recommendations were invaluable.

Room tip: The rooms on the top level billed as the backpacker rooms also have the best view of the lake and volcano. The rooms on the 2nd floor are a little more spacious and comfortable.

Service and hospitality were amazing - "our home is your home" was what the two ladies who run the hotel told us and we could use the kitchen. They made us breakfast at 6 in the morning when we had to leave early, offered tea at night and gave good tips for things to do in pucon.
The breakfast was the best we had in Chile with homemade cake.
The o Gudenschwager is the oldest hotel in town, so you get a bit of history too and its location - right by the lake and close to the city center is just perfect.

Reviewed 26 November 2012

I stayed here for one night in November. It sits right on the water in a quieter and lush part of town. The view from my room was truly spectacular with the the volcano on one side and the lake and beach on the other. And the women who ran the hotel were just lovely and very very helpful (so kind and helpful in fact that it's hard for me to write anything other than a wholly positive review). This is the kind of hotel where you spend a lot of time looking around and thinking "If I owned this hotel, I would...", and I would...pull up the old, dusty, moldy, stale-smoky carpets because they make it hard to sleep, paint the dark wooden walls white, and hang new curtains to better frame the stunning views. Other than that, I would leave everything else the same because I think they are sitting on one of the best views in town. I would probably also charge less during the off season. I paid too much for what it was.

Room tip: Room 8 has the best view
