Top Apartments in Calama

We wanted a confortable bed with duvet ( not heavy blankets) and a decent shower. We got that. But from the start there were issues. The extra bed in the triple room wasnt done and there were hairs on the mattress. The shower was burning hot. No cold water.! We had to go twice downstairs to get a man to fix it. We had problem to get Internet and had yet again to go downstairs to get help. (There is no way of contacting reception so we spent the first hour going down many times.) Internet does work. We waited for the third bed to be cleaned and done but at the end we had to do the bed ourselves. The air con didn't work despite the fact that the technician was there fixing the water. He looked at it and decided it works. Well it didn't. 🌝Breakfast was good. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The problems were sorted. The location of the hotel is good. You can easily walk into town or go to the modern shopping mall where you find cash point and money exchange at good rates.

The hotel has a rich breakfast and many fruits; the rooms are clean and the service is good. 15 minutes walk to the city center. Uber takes a car to the airport for about ten minutes

The location is very good, less than 100 meters from the JUMBO supermarket, it is very convenient to purchase food for tourism. The room is compact and comfortable, breakfast is good, the waiter speaks English and the service is very professional. There is a parking lot.

We stayed one night after our Atacama visit due to a morning flight to Santiago. At first glance it seems like a nice upscale hotel but... The reception staff was so rude it was like we were bothering them to check in. The hotel had sent an email previously about the need to pay in USD cash if we wanted to avoid the 19% tax so I had brought that along to pay. Turns out they would only take a credit card - they said the tax wouldn't be charged but that remains to be seen. We arrived at about 5:00 with no lunch and were starving but the restaurant doesn't open until 7pm and there is absolutely nothing else in the vicinity. The lobby bar wasn't even open until 7. There is supposedly a minibar in the room but it was completely empty. Finally went to dinner at 7 and the wait staff was no nicer than that reception staff - however, the food was good. The room was quiet and comfortable but there are no USB plugs and only one side of the bed has a plug of any sort. Cleanliness in both the room and the common areas was mediocre at best. Bottom line, it's close to the airport and will do for one night but I sure wouldn't want to be stuck there longer than that.

The rooms -- including bathrooms -- are tiny, which did not bother us as digital nomads because they still offered a lot of storage. The first floor lobby spills into an enormous dining room/work hall with plenty of seating and a variety of table heights (great for me to work sitting then move to a standing position). Lots of natural light and you can people watch through the windows. 24 hour attention @ the front desk and wifi speeds work GREAT in the room and best in the lobby. Brekkie is included in your rate and very good compared to other breakfasts we have eaten throughout our stay in Chile, including eggs made to order. Cafeteria offers buffet style or a la carte lunch + dinner. The sandwich we had for dinner was average, but keep in mind there are not many restaurants open on a Sunday in the area. Secure, off-street parking and we found that ~33% of the front desk staff we encountered spoke some English. NEGATIVES: 1) The room size is tight, but fine, except that there did not seem to be much air flow. This led to us sleeping with the window cracked for circulation, but the street noise is a distraction throughout the night. Bring ear plugs. 2) The included gym is a good thought but does not have free weights/weight lifting equipment; only cardio. For ~$6 USD/$5000 CHP there is a full gym 1 block away where you can buy a day pass. 3) Hotel contract mentions a safe in the room, but we did not see one in ours?! That would have been a useful touch. 4) I know the hotel cannot help its location, but I do not believe this is in the ”best” area of town. That being said, Calama is a bit rough anyway so the entire city itself statistically is not as safe as the aggregate of Chile. Case in point, EVERYONE tells you to not be out after sunset and the day of our arrival a poor teen was stabbed ~5 blocks from the hotel. This does not reflect in my rating of the hotel, but travelers should know that going into Calama/this hotel.
