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! More

  Hotel Dunas is a good functional hotel, no frills, but provides exactly what we needed - hot showers, clean room, good bed, regular breakfast and importantly a good location.
Would... read more recommend as a base for a few days.

  Accueil agréable dans cet hôtel à quelques encablures de la place principale et de la rue commerçante.
Les chambres sont plutôt agréables et propres. Salle de bains correcte. Petit... read more déjeuner perfectible toutefois.
Le wifi était en cours de réinstallation lors de notre passage. Mais le dernier jour cela semblait fonctionner correctement.

  This is a great little hotel w/in walking distance of main plaza in town. Just far enough away from the noise of downtown area. The rooms were well appointed. No... read more AC however it was cool at night so not a problem. Hotel staff were very friendly.

  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.

  O hotel é simples, mas extremamente limpo e com ótima localização! As funcionárias são super educadas e atenciosas!

Recomendo para quem não quer gastar tanto, mas também não quer passar perrengue.

  Lindas piezas y muy limpio. desayuno bueno. Muy bien ubicado, a pasos de la plaza principal.
Cuenta con estacionamiento.
Mi única crítica sería la cama matrimonial que nos tocó:... read more se notaba que el colchón era muy viejo, pues era muy incómodo.

  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.
