The Holiday Inn Santiago Airport
Location *** Great location,
the hotel is linked to the terminal by a walkway
Spotting ** High level rooms facing away from the terminal building offer limited views of the approaches/climb out and taxiways. SBS would probably be required to help identification.
Photos * It is difficult to take
decent pictures from anything but wide-bodies, as you are
exactly in between the 2 parallel runways, rather distant,
shooting above a lot of concrete (heat distortion), and the
rooms have heavily tinted windows. A photo spot is in walking
distance from the hotel at abeam RW27R, this spot is suitable
for departure shots in the morning with a minimum 130mm lens
required.
Value :* Expect to pay around £110 a room per night
The hotel can be booked through
