Situated in San Pedro de Atacama, Hostal Perita is set just a short distance from attractions such as San Pedro Church, Pukará de Quitor, and San Pedro's main square. Free WiFi available throughtout the property. The host Ricardo was the best part of this hostel. We came in feeling a little sick from our time in Bolivia, and he was the most accommodating/helpful/kind host either of us have ever had. Really the kind of guy who goes out of his way to make sure you enjoy your stay, and always with a smile. Even made sure we left with some breakfast snacks to go before our tour in the morning even though it was outside the appointed breakfast time. The room was really nice, and the beds really comfortable (love the pillows!). Very spacious as well, and had all the amenities needed (Ricardo provided room service during the 3 days and made sure the room was cleaned and restocked) Having full access to the kitchen at any time of day was really convenient The property was really cute with lounge chairs to hang out during the day. Very close to Caracoles street (5 minute walk) where everything happens! But just far enough that it's perfectly quiet at night Honestly one of the best places we've stayed during our travels

Hostal Piedrita de Rio is located in San Pedro de Atacama. This hostel features a garden and a shared kitchen.

A complimentary breakfast is served daily.

The hostel is 1.1 km from both R.P. Gustavo Le Paige Archeological Museum and Inca House. Mrs. Elvira, who attended to us, was very sweet and attentive, always in a good mood and with a smile on her face. Although it is located far from the town's center, the hotel is like a refuge, there is not much movement and it is very peaceful. It is possible to rent bicycles to go faster to the town centre, although we didn't rent one, we went on foot. They seemed to be doing some work to improve the space, but more improvements were needed in the surroundings. The street needed to be significantly improved, but it's not the hotel's fault. I highly recommend it if you want to spend a few days, there is parking for your car. TIP for travellers: San Pedro de Atacama seems to be a calm place, there is a lot to see and getting around by car seems to be a much more pleasant option than rushing around on tours. Shower water is hot during the day, and at night it takes a little longer to heat up. Self-service breakfast and complete. Elvira kindly prepared the table for us each morning.

The hostel is located in a tranquil area right next to a grocery store. Gustavo Le Paige museum is a 5-minute walk away. Calama Airport is approximately a 1-hour drive away. Shuttle services can be arranged for an extra fee. I felt really welcome in the hostel. The staff have really created a special place. I met amazing people and had such a good time. The support to book tours and airport shuttles made my stay so easy and fun. Hugo was always fun to chat to. The breakfast was consistently excellent!
