Hostal Katari

Muy limpio, fácil de llegar,comercio y restaurante cercano,ventas de frutas y cuentas con un área de cocina muy bien.

Me recibieron muy bien después de haber sido estafada por Miyas Tour, hicieron de mi estadía algo muy lindo gracias por eso. La cocina excelente y agua caliente en el baño. Tienen un restaurante con excelentes precios y todo muy muy muy delicioso

La tranquilidad del lugar

La marquesa sonaba más de la cuenta

Buen hostal, el trato de Sra. Alejandra muy acogedor y comprensible.

El trato de la dueña, Sra. Nancy. Con Sra. Alejandra consensuamos en dejar mis pertenencias despues del check out debido a mi horario del regreso al aeropuerto, en ningun momento se hablo de cancelar un adicional, ella solo lo hizo con mucha amabilidad y comprension. Al momento de abandonar el hostal, fui a dejar las llaves y me recibe su dueña, quien respondió de forma fría, cortante y poco amable que debia cancelar un adicional, y que el trato que habia hecho con Alejandra no correspondia, amenazando con retrarla. Le pregunte ¿que hacemos? ¿Cuanto vale el adicional?, y no me responde. En fin, sugiero que dentro de sus politicas de atencion, describan muy bien en que consiste sus pago adicionales, e independiente del buen trato de algunos de ellos, hable el mismo idioma comercial. Gracias sra. Alejandra por conocerla 😊

NO HAY AGUA CALIENTE FACILMENTE

Me encantó la ubicación, se encuentra en el perímetro pero a la vez cerca del centro. Cuenta con vista panorámica al Licancabur y es súper tranquilo. El personal es demasiado amable😉, es una hostal familiar, estoy muy agradecida con los dueños, tienen una excelente disposición y voluntad, además son muy cálidos. En cuanto a la limpieza cumple completamente, las sábanas, baño, cocina, siempre se mantuvieron limpios y ordenados. La cocina está bien equipada. Superó mis expectativas.

Atmosfera

Prezzo e qualità dei servizi

El hostel con las mejores vistas de todo San Pedro. Era increíble poder desde la habitación ver todos los volcanes. La limpieza de la habitación de 10. Alejandra un amor.

Una antena que hay enorme dentro del hostel, horrible.

바로 앞이 사막이라 밤에 별 잘 보임. 남십자성과 은하수를 제대로 볼 수 있음. 부엌이 있어 이용할 수 있음. 냉장고 공간 넓음.

숙소에 도착했는데 숙소에 아무런 간판이 없었음. 그 옆에 식당 이름이 Katari여서 물어보니 옆에 대문으로 들어가라고 함. 대문은 굳게 잠겨 있고 초인종을 아무리 누르고 문을 세게 두드려 봐도 아무도 나오지 않음. 결국 다시 식당으로 가서 식당 직원이 쪽문으로 들어가게 해 주어 숙소에 들어갈 수 있었음. 식당 직원이 안쪽에 들어가 사람을 불러와 겨우 직원을 만나게 됨. 이 직원은 정말 영어를 한마디로 하지 못했음. 번역 번역기를 돌려가며 체크인을 시도함. 2박을 USD166.6에 예약했으나 카드나 달러로 지불 불가능하고 오직 CL$로만 요구했음. 그동네 환율이 860이었는데 처음에 CL$149,900을 달라고 했음. 예약한 금액과 USD7.7 차이가 남. 이의를 제기하자 주인인 듯한 할머니가 나와서 CL$161,000를 달라고 함. 예약한 내용을 확인하며 나는 USD166.6에 예약했다고 했더니, 배째라는 식이었음. 처음에 직원이 CL$149,900 달라고 했다고 하자, 그 금액으로 내라고 함. 역시 이 할머니도 영어를 한마디도 하지 못함. 번역기 돌려가며 166.6 달러를 칠레 페소로 환산한 금액을 보여주었지만 계속 딴소리를 하며 받아주지 않음. 그 동네가 워낙 허허벌판이고 숙소를 옮기기 쉽지 않아, 결국 처음에 이야기한 CL$149,900을 주기로 하고 들어가게 되었음. 방의 모든 기구는 굉장히 낡고 조명과 협탁에는 먼지가 뽀얗게 쌓여 있어 물티슈로 내가 스스로 닦아야 했음. 제공한 수건은 너무 오래되고 낡아 걸레 같았음. 욕실은 매우 비좁아 1명이 들어가 손을 닦기도 일을 보기도, 샤워를 하기는 더더욱 어려웠음. 샤워를 할 때에도 따뜻한 물은 전혀 나오지 않았으며 수압이 너무 약해 시간이 엄청 오래 걸렸음. 수압이 약한데도 배수가 전혀 되지 않아 샤워하는 내내 물이 고여있었음. 여행자 거리에서도 너무 멀고 오가는 길이 좋지 않았음. 빠른 길인 큰 길로 가면 자동차가 달리며 내뿜는 먼지를 고스란히 맞아야 했고 조금 돌아가는 길인 골목으로 가면 얕긴 하지만 언덕을 하나 넘어야 함. 내가 먹는 동안 이 숙소에는 우리 일행 밖엔 없었음. 손님이 없는 것이 정말 이해가 갔음. 칼라마 공항 셔틀 예약을 부탁했는데, 떠나는 날까지도 제대로 안내해 주지 않아 불안했음. 구글맵에 별 3개 숙소라고 표시된 것이 정말 이해가 가지 않았음. 별 하나짜리 도미토리와 다름이 없음. 가이드북에 있어서 이 숙소를 선택한 것이었는데, 가이드북 저자에게 항의하고 싶음. 아타카마에 숙소가 많지 않다고 되어 있었는데, 지나다 보니 좋은 숙소가 꽤 많아 보였음. 남미 4주를 여행하는 동안 이 숙소가 가장 좋지 않았음. 정말 비추임.

Perfect location super clean great atmosphere beautiful decor lovely attention to detail spotless kitchen felt completely at home in the desert

Todo estuvo genia Nancy y Alejandra excelentes personas que hacen de tu estadia increible La habitacion esta super bien equipada y cada dia te la arreglan La cocina esta siempre lompia y tiene todo lo que se necesita Lo recomendaria con los ojos cerrados

Comfortable and clean

It’s a little walk off the main walking street but really it’s a non issue!

Staff were absolutely wonderful. Especially when my bus was exceptionally late and I didn't arrive until 2am.

Πολύ πρόθυμο φιλικό και βοηθητικό το προσωπικό!

Δεν είχε πάντοτε ζεστό νερό ( ίσως έκανα εγώ κάτι λάθος) αλλά μόλις το έλεγες στη κυρία έλυνε κάπως το πρόβλημα!

La acogida de la sra Nancy y su hija Alejandra, te hacen sentir como en familia, están atentas a apoyar todo lo que uno pueda requerir, volveré siempre al mismo lugar

Nada de que quejarse

Todo me gustó, la persona del Hostal fue muy amable, me dejó hacer el check in antes y eso es muy importante para quienes viajamos y queremos aprovechar el tiempo. La calidad del servicio prestado (habitación, etc) fue súper bueno, y la vista genial.

Great value to nice and comfortable rooms. Friendly staff. Very practical location.

It possibly could get cold in winter in rooms with no heating. Beds are very warm, though. Soap and shampoo would be appreciated.

Sauber, sogar die Bettwäsche wurde während dem Aufenthalt gewechselt. Ruhige Lage. WLAN auch im Zimmer verfügbar.

Man sollte mehr zahlen, als ursprünglich vereinbart. Unterkunft schwer zu finden, besonders in der Dunkelheit; bei Ankunft zunächst vor verschlossener Tür gestanden, Besitzer kamen erst nach einem Anruf. Keine Heizung, was bei der Kälte sehr unangenehm war. Wasser nur eiskalt oder brühend heiß, nur einmal angenehm warm geduscht. Keine Pflegeprodukte wie angegeben vorhanden. Niemand spricht Englisch, obwohl es in der Beschreibung angegeben war (dies war ein wichtiger Grund für die Wahl).

Todo! La habitación estaba increíble, la cama muy cómoda y abrigadita. Además todo muy limpio.

The staff was the best, as well as the the dogs and the cats they have!

청결하고 숙소위치가 좋았음

O hostal é bem bonito, e a dona , uma senhora, e sua filha são bem atenciosas.

Os quartos são muito frios e não tem mini aquecedores para ajudar. A água do chuveiro ou é fria ou esquenta demais, não dá para ter o equilibro.

The staff are lovely! A very tight cleaning routine makes sure everything is spotless, even with the challenge of being on the edge of the desert with dust everywhere.

In winter, it might be nice to have a small area for seating / relaxing in the sun. The seating areas are great, but they are mainly in the shade.

Parked the motorcycle right outside my room 👌 Quiet area Comfortable bed

Cash only

The place was really clean, nice and generally quiet. The host was welcoming. It wasn't too far from Caracoles.

It was impossible to regulate the shower temperature. You could choose between scalding hot or freezing cold, but nothing in between.

The room was cosy, bed was extremely comfy with nice bedding. There is a kitchen with all you need for cooking, but also affordable restaurant with nice food just nextvdoor. You can see the mountain range from the patio. The owners were super nice too.

The owner is very friendly and helpful

N/A

very clean (they made my room daily), clean community kitchen that you can use 24/7, it‘s a short walk into town (10mins), therefore it‘s quiet at night, very friendly staff, would stay there again

Stayed end feb and it was very hot. Although nights are cooler, the cool air never gets into the room and there is no breeze. In the day, it is simply impossible to rest and nap due to the extreme heat. There is also no fan in the room. The room is clean and the lady boss is friendly. However, the reception is not manned at all times. I left my luggage to go to the Uyuni tour and returned to collect on the final day to go to the airport. When I returned, the lady boss was not around and the cleaner who was present did not know anything until she called to check. They do not speak english at all. The location is away from Caracoles with 10 mins of walking. There is a mini market opposite the hostal.

Spacious room. Great kitchen that can be used. Only cash payment accepted. Dogs and a cat are around.

Lovely family-run hotel in San Pedro de Atacama. Spacious rooms, that are cleaned every day, as well as the bathrooms. There is a common kitchen where you can prepare food. The owners are very friendly and helpful with everything. You can see the sunrise over the mountains from the hotel. Nice, quiet location within walking distance from the center. I highly recommend this stay! :)

Friendly owners, great facilities. Excellent value.

Very helpful lady working there

Very close walk to town center, yet peaceful and quiet, great for introverts who need some recharge time after a full day. Run by a very sweet woman with a very friendly kitty and dog. The shared kitchen and bathroom were always clean and there are nice spots outdoors to hang out. 10/10

I liked everything

Basic amenities but clean Great location

Nothing

Very clean, kitchen, outside space, not too far from town center Supermarkets close by Staff very helpful and friendly

No kettle, in the kitchen No sun lounger Property looked not finished

The place was clean and comfortable for one night. The kitchen is well stocked. There is only 1 shower but it's not very busy so was fine.

It seems like it's in the process of being built so was very quiet with little ambiance other than people working to build more rooms.

The property is stunning, the views are amazing and I don’t think you’d get them from somewhere more central. The beds are HUGE and so comfortable. The staff are super friendly and caring It’s set up with lots of chairs so is pretty sociable And the resident pets really make it special! I love it!

I arrived before the time I told them and they allowed me to use the room since that time. They are also very kind people.

In general everything ok, but a bit expensive for the service.

Peaceful and cozy place!

A lot of dogs around and inside the hostal, no one is watching over them or controlling. When I arrived I was "greeted" by aggressive barking of one and for 10+ minutes no one from the staff showed up.

Rooms are comfortable, with all necessary for a good night of sleep. Location is ok.

Staff is not friendly at all, very rude. Not a 24h reception. Payment only in cash. Very dark at night to reach. I would not stay again.

The owners were so friendly and welcoming from the moment I arrived to the minute I left, they could not have been more helpful and kinder. I really enjoyed my stay here, my room was clean and comfortable and the facilities were great. Lovely kitchen and bathroom

That I only had 1 night here!

Everything,owners are nice people,very friendly.rooms are excellent,view on mountains are great

A bit further from the center but still walkable, and more quiet. Great view of the mountains. Cute cats. Dogs were sometimes annoying. Room was small and very basic but the furniture was cute and it was cleaned every day.

This seems typical for San Pedro budget rooms but there was almost 0 water pressure, often reduced to a trickle, and the water was always ice cold with occasionally working hot water, but then it'd be scalding. This made it hard to keep clean. Also, other guests often left the shared bathroom in a mess, which is not really the hostals fault, but it could be cleaned more regularly, and/or use a few signs about being a bit more responsible.

Alejandra was very pleasant and provided me with a fan upon request. Good to have access to common fridge,

No air conditioning. Stove was useless to me as I was unfamiliar with stove that uses canisters of gas. On a hot day, the walk into town wasn’t very pleasant.

Just outside the crazy busy area Perfect location and awesome staff

Calm atmosphere and nature scenery.

Hot water control in shower room

It was clean, there is a kitchen and it’s very quiet. It also has an amazing view to the desert and is a bit away from the crowds. I really enjoyed staying there.

The kitchen could have been equipped a bit better.

Clean room, clean bathroom, easily accessible and well connected

The rooms are very clean and refreshed

Hostal Katari was clean, tidy and friendly. The staff were patient with my lack of Spanish! Very nice location close enough to town to be easy to access but not noisy at night.

Please put a better sign on the front, I struggled to find it!

Comfortable, some lovely dogs and cats and relaxing furniture with a good view of mountains

The staff really, I turned up very exhausted to check in and having to go into their restaurant looking for their hostel as they don’t have a sign for some reason. I had my friend with me who helped me check I with her spanish and the older woman there made me pay more money as my friend came to my room for a couple hours before her bus later. As we left reception she yelled at her worker to ‘make sure she leaves in two hours!’ Quite rude really, the place is nice and relaxing other than that.

Rooms were tidy and comfy and all facilities (kitchen, shared bathrooms) were spotless. There’s a mini mart across the street to buy necessities and a great produce market next door. It’s a little away from the tourist throngs in the center and felt more relaxed.

The address in booking.com is incorrect—find it on Google maps instead. It’s a little outside the center of San Pedro (7-10 minute walk). For me, it was nice to be out of the throngs of tourists in the center (the on-site restaurant and nearby markets serve locals and it’s really nice), but plan to walk a little in the heat of the day and at night to reach/leave the center. I also just have to mention that the host was very rude to my local friend (a tourist guide) who came to pick me up for a tour one morning. The situation was born out of a misunderstanding but made for a very awkward and uncomfortable situation for me. The host shouted at and scolded my guide and asked him to leave, while never addressing me as the paying guest, which felt disrespectful. The whole thing was unnecessarily awkward and tense for everyone involved.

It was quiet

The internet could be better

- the owner's daughter was kind and helpful - a very nice view on volcano/mountains

- location: far away from the centre - internet: unstable, poor quality - pets: owner's cats and dogs

Good location, far enough away from busy area to cut down on noise but with 5 min walk. Large rooms with comfortable warm beds. Great staff, super friendly, helpful, nice, patient with my lack of Spanish (they don’t speak English). Awesome dogs and cats that you will just fall in love with. Great view of mountains and volcano. Good common areas, kitchen area, outside seating, etc.

No restaurant on location. Looks like there used to be but not open now (?) But many restaurants very close. No heating in rooms, or space heaters, and it gets very cold at night in winter. But beds are very warm. No English speakers. But I don’t speak good Spanish, so I can’t hold that against them. Plus they are so nice, that more than makes up for it. A little loud in morning with roosters crowing and dogs barking in distance, but I got used to it by 2nd night. Showers had good flow and hot water but it was difficult to get the temp just right. It takes a lot of adjusting the cold knob and the hot knob.

Bath outside. Rich breakfast. .

comfortable bedroom and staff who are also the owners are really kind and help you with anything

was not able to pay with card, just cash accepted

not much. it was clean

There was no signage. it was very difficult to find. it was deserted. nobody was there and I felt lonely. none of the staff could speak English. they were very nice but they couldn’t give information about the complicated arrangements for activities in the area. I left after one night to go to a more social hostel

A perfect stay in a wonderful little hostel. The staff made me feel welcome and they even made me a mini breakfast to take on my bus. I will definitely be back!

Very excellent breakfast. Large size of the room. Good location. Free and easy parking

not much

staff, location, cleanliness, not soundproof, bad breakfast

This place has some of the best views of the mountains and the stars you will find in the city. The staff (Ani, Francisco, and “Mr. Lascar”) are incredible and assisted with making sure that I accomplished everything I wanted to get done in Atacama. They helped me arrange trips to the lagoons, volcanoes, and stargazing with short notice. The room, bathroom, and kitchen/dining were very warm despite the frigid nights, and the vibe was very chill. the place is in a very convenient location, but it’s much quieter than other places. No loud parties.

I enjoyed 2 nights at this great hostal. The family are very friendly and make you feel at home. My room was clean and comfortable and i enjoyed the added company of the dogs and cats. It was totally quiet at night. However, there is a rooster to help you in the morning lol. This isnt an issue for me. The square is in easy walking distance and there are plenty of restaurants. The included breakfast is very good with a large selection. Motorcycle parking is at your front door 😁

Huge and perfectly clean room, with wonderful patio. This was one of those perfect places that you’re so comfortable in, that you don’t want to go out. While traveling I’m usually not spending to much time at the hotel since I want to see everything that city have to offer. Here was different, I was enjoying spending time in the garden with three dogs and two cats, way more than in the crowded and tourist city. The small common kitchen was great idea since allowed me to make coffee anytime I want. Breakfast was starting every day in a bit different time since we were waiting for a fresh bread to be made, so I’ll remember the smell of fresh morning ciabatta for a long time, The owner and her family were wonderful, always helpful and trying to understand my A1 Spanish questions. Altogether, I would be glad to stay here again if I’m ever back to San Pedro de Atacama.

NOTHING TO LIKE

WORST STAFF EVER. RUDE, not helpful, mean 3 ladies. 2 of them speak 0 English and one who does said if I'm coming to her country I need to learn Spanish. I've never been at a stay with such unpleasant staff. freezing in the room, no heather or extra blankets. loud, dogs barking, roosters walking around. You can only pay cash, not any cash, but brand new notes. wifi is not working. water takes forever to get warm. dark room. construction right in front of the door. next to the bus and truck parking lot. stained bed cover, molded corners of the room.

The lady was super friendly. Since we didn't take breakfast because of the tours, she made a little "breakfast box" for us, which was very nice!

The shower was super cold. But they warned us about it because it is winter now and the pipes are frozen. And maybe the water kept changing from cold to hot because of that. We never knew how to contact the ladies there at night when we wanted to tell them something.
