    Stunning late baroque/ neoclassical home in large garden. Mexican art exhibition currently on dispay. Free entry. Cute little cafe/ice creamery.

    The palace itself is gorgeous, sadly there's a lack of maintenance showing up. Some cracks and paint details need to be taken care of asap. About the visit... Well it's a free guided visit so you have to walk faster. There's no time to admire the architecture that it's rich in details.

    A must! One of the most beautiful places in viña del mar. The infrastructure and museum is really beautiful. They have a small cosy coffee place that is wonderful with typical chilean sweets. Please try the "tres leches cake" and "medialuna con manjar". The music is soft and elegant, according to the Palace. The garden is splendid and you can walk around the garden and sit in the sun. There is a mystery behind the palace... Some have reported paranormal activities inside the Palace. (The piano starts playing at night)

    Magnificent building owned by a working class man. The place is impressive and I highly recommend taking the guided tour to make the experience better. It's free and it's centrally located.

    Beautiful historical Palace, from the times of the foundation of Viña del Mar.

    I love Vina del Mar and its attractions. I enjoyed walking in gardens of the palace and learn about the history of the place. Well maintained and luxurious. There is a nice cafe with the best cortado and cakes in Vina.

    Great historical place. The palace and gardens have been restored. The public entrace is by the cafeteria (basement level). There are several palm trees species in the gardens around the palace.

    One of the best historical places in the region, very well preserved and with a very welcoming crew of guides. Don't forget to visit the gardens!!

    Beautiful building. Unfortunately, the museum inside was closed so couldn't visit. Gardens are well kept and a lovely spot to sip a coffee and read a book

    I wanted to visit the Quinta Rioja with two Chilean friends, one from Viña and the other from Valparaíso. When we arrived at the Quinta, we were told that it was closed because of the forest fires about four weeks ago. An office employee informed us that this was a known fact. But there is no such comment on the Quinta Rioja's website, and both of my friends did not know. There was also one student group that wanted to visit the Quinta, as well as several other people. Servicio al cliente pésimo y personal arrogante.

    Great visit! The entrance is free and a tour guide (Spanish) shows you around. Beautiful architecture and historical interior design. The rather short visit is definitely worth it!

  • 4/5 Ines W. 1 year ago on Google
    A very nice house with some history and a well kept garden

  • 4/5 Julie Whelan C. 1 year ago on Google
    Really nice decorative arts museum, I highly recommend a visit while you are in Viña. You can learn a lot about the history of the area if you take a guided tour. Be aware there are a lot of stairs and the elevator is currently not functioning (March 2023)
