I’m posting the following for my friend who stayed at hotel Dunas with me in August:

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!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

  Nous sommes restés 4 nuits dans cet hôtel avec salle de bain privative.

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!

Also they offer parking which is an added benefit in this town.
