The Singular Patagonia: A Restored Monument at the Gateway to Torres del Paine

The Singular Patagonia is one of the most extraordinary hotels in South America, carved from a beautifully restored early-20th-century cold-storage and meatpacking plant, a Chilean national monument, on the Señoret Channel at Puerto Bories near Puerto Natales. Its industrial machinery, rail cars and soaring halls sit alongside contemporary comfort, a design-led base for expeditions into nearby Torres del Paine.

The dining is a highlight. The Singular Restaurant crafts refined Patagonian cuisine under chef Mariano Martin Salaberry; and the intimate El Asador revolves around an open wood-burning grill, cooking lamb, guanaco, rabbit and beef from the region's best ingredients.

For a dramatic, design-led Patagonia stay, The Singular is a benchmark.
