Nestled snugly between the vast Pacific Ocean to the west and the rugged Andes Mountains to the east is the lively, cosmopolitan of city of Santiago, Chile. This thriving South American metropolis is Chile’s “número uno” business and financial center, and offers travelers a burgeoning art scene.

This September, explore some of Santiago’s famous attractions, including hiking to the summit of Cerro San Cristóbal (you’ll be rewarded with unrivaled views of the city) by day, and hunkering down at The Aubrey boutique hotel by nightfall. This property, which was featured in Condé Nast Traveler’s 2010 “Hot List”, is offering ShermansTravel.com readers an exclusive 25 percent off all rooms and suites, as well as free buffet breakfast through September 30.

Rates for a Terrace Room, Cristobal Suite, and Art Deco Suite start at $262, $337, and $412, respectively.

THE VALUE: These starting rates cut 25 percent off normal prices. In regards to The Aubrey’s “specs,” the 15-room hotel, which was once derelict, is fresh off a two-year renovation totaling $3 million and has been offering travelers welcomed respite since its opening in March 2010. Amenities at the hotel include a heated Jacuzzi swimming pool, Restaurant Pasta E Vino, and a small spa salon.

Located in the bohemian neighborhood of Bellavista, The Aubrey is adjacent to Metropolitan Park, just one block away from Pablo Neruda Museum, and is 10 minutes to Santiago’s Metro system.

THE CATCH: Empanadas not included.

THE DETAILS: To book, e-mail reservas@theaubrey.com and mention the ShermansTravel.com promotion. Travel must be completed by September 30.
