I used bookings.com to book our room for 3 nights. The hotel was kind enough to let us store our bags on the day we checked in and the day... read more we checked out so we could maximize our time to explore. They even had someone at the front desk at 4am so we could check out before our geyser tour! The room has a little backyard area which was nice at night to sit out and drink a beer. I also noticed that we were close to the center of the town but not too close where we could hear the nightlife.

  Located centrally. Wifi worked well in room. Room was clean and decorated with local characters. A patio connected with the room. However, the paper-thin wall made my sleep uncomfortable. Breakfast... read more was basic but ok. The staff at the front desk spoke a little bit English. Be advised that you'd better pay foreign cash. If you pay Chile Peso, you would have to pay 19% tax like Chile citizens. It was unreasonable. Chile law granted the foreign tourists living in Chile less than 60 days to exempt from hotel tax regardless of payment currency. And if you pay by credit card, you would pay more 20%. More unreasonable.

First of all I loved my stay at Dunas hotel. Nice&quiet location... read more and yet close to all the bustling night life. Nice, clean and tidy rooms. And the front "yard" with benches, were you can sit and enjoy the cooling afternoon. 🙂

But here is why I must write this post: I went for a walk out of the San Pedro city center in the afternoon and managed to get tangeld up in a rather dramatic and unusual way. I was in REAL danger and got myself in BIG trouble. Without knowing any Spanish and with a acute need for help, I could not have had more luck with the staff at the hotel. As soon as they learned about my trouble from my friend who was in the hotel at the time, they immediately went out of their way to help me. The hotel owner sent a car with my friend to find me, argued me out of the situation and helped me in all possible ways. Afterwards they made sure I got all the necessary medical treatment I needed. So friendly, so forthcoming, so warm and so caring! Even a mum could not have done more for her son!

Five star for the facilities and SIX stars for service and kindness!

Staff at hotel were very helpful didn’t speak very much English (not surprising really as we are in Chile) but one way or another we did manage to communicate surly it’s all part of the fun .I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hotel Dunas we had a great experience

  We chose Hotel Dunas based on TA reviews, price and location. It was a good choice at a good price for San Pedro. The rooms are a bit small, but... read more that was not a big issue. More of a problem was that they were fairly dark, some brighter lights would have come in handy. I preferred to sit out on the patio to read, check emails (great WiFi reception) and enjoy the sunshine, as it was pretty cold inside. It didn't matter at night, though, as the very comfortable beds have electric blankets. In summer it would probably be very nice to sit out in your own little courtyard, but the high walls didn't let much sun in when we were there, so the space was a bit wasted.

The bathroom was also quite tiny, but the shower always had hot water, and that's what was most important for us. And it was clean, and soap and shampoo were provided.

Storage space was a bit limited, but for a few days this was okay.

Breakfast was basic but fine, and you could have a cup of tea and a bite to eat even if you had to leave early to go on a tour. There was always someone friendly at reception, though English was a problem. Still, we managed to get our tickets to Calama airport booked. And we also managed to convey that we would like to store our luggage and get our washing done (CLP2000 per kilo) while we went on a Salar de Uyuni tour.

As long as you know what to expect I think Hotel Dunas is a great base for a stay in San Pedro. I'd happily stay here again were I to return to San Pedro, which I hope I'll have a chance to do, as there is a lot more to see than we had time for.

  Nous sommes restés 4 nuits dans cet hôtel avec salle de bain privative. Mis à part le prix un peu élevé ($280000 pesos, d'ailleurs mieux vaut payer en liquide si... read more vous ne souhaitez pas payer la taxe de 19%), la chambre était très propre, spacieuse, nettoyée tous les jours et le petit déjeuner était correct!
Comme partout à Atacama, si vous ne parlez pas espagnol c'est un peu problématique 🙂 le personnel parle difficilement anglais donc c'est un peu compliqué pour vous faire comprendre mais ils étaient sympas !
L'hôtel est situé en plein milieu de la petite ville un peu à l'écart des bars et restos (donc parfait si vous souhaitez être un peu au calme !).
On recommande cet hôtel a tous les backpackers s'arrêtant ici!

  This hotel is only a 10 minutes stroll from the "main drag" and is in a quieter area of the town. The hotel is a "motel" style and and quit... read more rustic but in its own way really nice. Reception is just thru the front gate and is also where you have your breakfast. Check in was easy and very friendly.
We had Room 4 which was a reasonable size with 2 comfy single beds, A wardrobe, safety box, a table and 2 chairs, there was minimal laying out space. The room had an enclosed rear patio and a front shared verandah with a table and chairs.
There is no TV or A/C or coffee/tea makings. The hotel is quiet at night.
The toilet/shower was fine with free toiletries and a hair dryer. Breakfasts were fine, sort of continental style but you could get eggs cooked any style.

I enjoyed my 3 nights here and would definitely return here.
