Northern Chile, Chile hotel rooms at the Independent

"Property was really good and the host was really friendly and accomodating even though we don't speak the language. They prepared breakfast for us every morning and cleaned the rooms every day too. Small property so you can talk to other guests as well. Waking up and eating breakfast with the view of desert and mountains in the backdrop was really special too. The place is 5 mins walk from main market street so you are perfectly tucked away from peak tourist traffic and still close enough to get out and do your stuff. The airport transfer services come up to the hostel and most of the tours can pick you up from this location. Ones which cannot will generally pick up from a location which can not be more than 10 moinutes walk. We visited in winter and from our experience, two things that I want to highlight. 1. you are very close to the driest place on the earth so pack lotion and 2 because you are in the middle of a desert and temperatures drop significantly at night its better to pack warm clothes to sleep in. Room was colder than a usual hotel room."

"This is a great hotel with very authentic layout. Rooms are very nice."

"The property's location is a little bit off the center, but it is still walkable. It is situated in very peaceful and beautiful surroundings. "

"This hotel is a beautiful property located in an amazing town. The property is immaculate, well maintained and very comfortable. We love the minimalist aspect of the room including the pleasing absence of a television. The staff is very professional and very helpful. Each days activities required a box lunch and each day this was ready for us before we left no matter how early. 5-stars for this property. "

"Felt like we were at a resort. Food and facilities were great and close walk to town yet distance enough for a quiet and safe space."

"There was only one towel and it could use some keeping up, but very good experience."

"Love the place, excellent customer service, really nice place."

"We had a fabulous stay at Habitas Atacama, we felt looked after and the staff were amazing. Food was also fantastic, wish we had stayed longer!"

"What a fantastic find. This family run adobe style motel excelled in service. The owner was full of great advice on things to do, and even purchased our tickets for Chaxa when we couldn't get the website to work. The only downside is it is out of town and the roads are narrow and windy, but the upside is peace and quiet."
