I agree with other reviewers that this hotel is nowhere near its 4-star rating. The setting is pleasant and the proximity to town is a plus, but the accommodations are more basic than luxurious. My room had no electrical outlet in the bathroom, and a strong odor of sewage was present throughout my stay. The railroad ties throughout the property... More

We have just returned from a 4 week trip in South America. Our stay at the Casa Atacama was the highlight. From the friendly staff, spotless rooms, excellent food and drink and the very best tour organisation we have ever come across.We took advantage as much as time allowed to do as many tours as we could, which were always...

Just stayed for 3 nights and couldn't wait to leave. It's a real shame because the place has a lot of potential but for $350 night, expected a lot more. I was looking forward to staying at a 4 star atmosphere but pictures are deceiving and there is zero value. POSITIVES: Location is pretty good with a short walk to... More

Tepid reception. No hot water on first day. Total collapse of water and electricity on day two. OK this happens but then you deal with it, you have a plan you communicate and you make sure your guests understand. In our case it was a ship without a captain. Very sad for a hotel with great potential. Only the innitiative... More

The eco-friendly design of Casa Atacama’s energy system centers on one overarching concept: our desire to complement the town of San Pedro and its cultural environment. The hotel’s design has been geared towards conservation from its conception, with a focus on water conservation, low energy consumption and a solar-heated water system. We also are committed to minimizing our use of... More

We stayed here December 2011 as part of a honeymoon in South America. We used transfer licancabur for the transfer from the airport -really good professional service. Fine you do have to pick up a few people on the way to and fromt he airport -but the money saving is huge compared to a private transfer. The hotel is nice... More

After an exhilarating, but lengthy, drive from Purmamarca, Argentina, we were ready for a little R&R at the Atacama. No such luck. I've read about complaints re the rooms near the pool. Well, count your lucky stars if you get one; our room was on the outside perimeter with a patio view of a 7' brick wall and over that... More

San Pedro is a delightful oasis in the Atacama desert, and Casa Atacama is an excellent boutique hotel that is true to the spirit of San Pedro. The architecture is appropriate to the desert climate, and in its contemporary rough-plastered way, evokes the traditional adobe buildings in the town. Amongst the creative details: smooth wood flooring inside the reception and... More

There are several good reasons for avoiding this hotel (there are many other four star places in beautiful San Pedro which probably do not face the problems of this accommodation). 1) No privacy The 25 rooms are located around a swimming pool with sun beds but do hardly offer any kind of privacy. Every one is able to look in... More
