Located 500 metres from the town centre of San Pedro de Atacama, Hotel Anpaymi Atacama offers accommodations in the commune of Lickancabur.

Rooms have a private bathroom and a flat-screen TV is available.

The host was so lovely. She went out of her way to help us and give us tips on what to do. She also spoke perfect English which made it a lot easier for us. The room itself was really comfortable, and got cleaned daily. There was also a kitchen available for cooking, and a big fridge to store food. Location was great, maybe 10 minutes walk from the main street in a quieter part of town. San Pedro is very safe though so it was great even walking back at night. Very very happy with our stay.

    Friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable bed in good sized dormitory. Pretty good kitchen although some guests don't consider others so washing up can get left and one person was stealing drinks from the fridges on more than one occasion. Obviously that's the fault of the guest not the fault of the pwners. Great location. Hostel and camping available. Beautiful kitty cat!

    The property is very clean, the staff are so lovely and welcoming. The place itself is very nice and cosy. I stayed in a four bed mixed. My first time in a hostel so I was worried however it was perfect! I would highly recommend to stay. It’s quiet, it has 3 bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a rooftop, swimming pool. I hired a car from the airport and parked it on the main road outside hostel, very very safe! Cecilia is so lovely, she works very hard all day! There is lots of seating around the hostel to chill on.

You get fresh eggs (scrambled or fried) every morning. This place is surely the best hostel to stay in San Pedro. I stayed 4 nights in total

    A nice quiet & safe location, quite close to the bus station, and still only 15 minutes walk to the centre….in my opinion, much better than staying right in the centre. The room was clean and comfortable, and Victor was friendly & helpful, plus he arranged all of my tours. There are some nice local restaurants and small kiosks close by, which are handy (and much cheaper than the centre!).

    No doubt that’s the best hostel I’ve ever been. The dorms are super comfy and safe, the bathrooms are mostly very clean, plus you have all the facilities, services and amenities you might need, including kitchen, bike renting, swimming pool, hammocks, boarding games, good music, homemade dinner & drink for only 5000 pesos. But the very special things of this place are the vibes and the people (the owner, employees, volunteers and guests) - laid back, fun, helpful and caring. “El que viaja solo, nunca está solo” 💜
