SCOUT REVIEW
If your dream Chilean ski vacation evolves around the principles of ski, eat, sleep, repeat, then the Inca Lodge is a fantastic option. Don't expect any bells & whistles at this small lodge. Similar to that of a European youth hostel, Inca Lodge is well suited to younger travellers in a group or skiing alone (or a group of friends that just need a bed to rest at night). Rooms are relatively small, with 2 sets of bunk beds and sleeping up to 4 people per room. Rates are based on per person in a share room, or for a double or triple share room. Bathrooms are communal. As with all Portillo ski packages, meals are included daily, which are held in the self-serve cafeteria at the Hotel Portillo (not in the main dining room). Guests are also able to enjoy the full facilities and services on offer at Hotel Portillo, including the outdoor swimming pool, games room, cinema, fitness centre, and convenience store.
The Inca Lodge provides everything you need for a basic ski vacation in Portillo, without all the extravagance (and price-tag), and is an ideal accommodation option for budget skiers & families.
Who should stay here
Perfect for groups of skiers & solo travellers on a budget
Location
Inca Lodge is situated behind the mian Hotel Portillo. The building is ski-in ski-out and it's less than a minute's walk across the snow to get to the hotel. Portillo itself is 2 hours North-east of Santiago.
