The Singular Patagonia

Few hotels in southern Patagonia can deliver luxury services and impart a rich sense of Chile's history quite like The Singular.



In a converted factory on a remote coastal stretch of Puerto Bories, the 57-room design hotel is receiving international accolades not only for its attentive luxury services but for meticulously preserving and incorporating the old factory’s massive Victorian machinery into the modern fabric of the building.




The Singular hotel is located in the converted Frigorifico Puerto Bories, a post-Victorian cold-storage plant built in 1915. This industrial complex was originally built by the Sociedad Explotadora de Tierra del Fuego to process and export frozen meat to Europe. The cattle came from all over the Patagonia, including across the Andes in Argentina.



The factory was in operation for 70 years, generating work and contributing to the development of the region. After a long period of neglect, the building was restored to its former industrial grandeur and as a result of the meticulous conservation, was declared a National Monument in 1996.




The Singular's modern restaurant serves traditional Patagonian food, including Magellan lamb and king crab. The daily breakfast includes coffee, juice, eggs and omelettes. The Singular's spa features a heated indoor/outdoor pool and a sauna. A range of beauty and relaxing treatments is also available.
