Farellones Hostel to Stay

Hey Readers,
I asked my friend Brian Wiley to send us some info on his hostel in Farellones, Chile which is near the resorts of Valle Nevado, La Parva, and El Colorado, the closest ski areas to Santiago. A lot of people have trouble locating a place to stay, and I will highly recommend this place: The Farellones Ski Hostel. Its fairly crammed when loaded with people, but just about every spot in Farellones has 5 people more than it should. You'll be happy knowing you have a bed to rest your body upon after the all day riding + after riding Happy Hour + all night discotheque missions to Los Montañes, Valle Nevado, or La Parva's Powder disco. Its location at the base of the bottom t-bar of El Colorado allows for instant access to the resort in the morning and a walk across the street to the Farellones market and the local restaurant/discotheque Los Montañes. In reality, there isn't that many options to stay, so unless you're prepared to negotiate with a local upon arrival (which I did my first year to Chile) for a month long-term rental, then hit up my man Brian.

Here's my description of The Farellones Ski Hostel along with 3
photos.Let me know what you think....cheers Brian:


The Farellones Ski Hostel is only a two-minute walk from the lower
ski run at El Colorado Ski Area in Farellones, Chile. Our hostel is in
a cozy and comfortable A frame that has wonderful views of The Andes
from the spacious common room. We have 2 shared rooms with comfortable
bunk beds and storage space. The shared room costs $45/person per
night and includes an American style breakfast and fresh coffee. Our
private double room costs $90/night. For dinner hours, we have an open
kitchen so that you can feel at home and prepare yourself what you
like. We also sell many common food items that you can cook for
reasonable prices.
Our living room has a DVD player along with many movies to choose
from. Since the hostel only sleeps a maximum of 12 skiers/snowboarders
per night, you will feel at home and make new friends while enjoying
your stay. We are located minutes from two pubs/restaurants. We also
provide free information about skiing in Chile and Argentina. We can
arrange your stay in Santiago along with transportation to and from
the airport.
