Experience the Magic of Hostal La Casa Del Sol Naciente in Chile
310 Tocopilla, 1410000 San Pedro de Atacama, Chile
Overview
Hostal La Casa del Sol Naciente is a 4-star guesthouse in the heart of San Pedro de Atacama, the high-altitude desert town in northern Chile that serves as the gateway to one of the most otherworldly landscapes on Earth. Sitting at roughly 2,400 metres above sea level, San Pedro is the base for excursions to the Valle de la Luna, the El Tatio geysers, the Salar de Atacama salt flat, and the flamingo lagoons of Los Flamencos National Reserve. The town itself has an adobe character and a lively traveller culture built around stargazing, adventure sports, and indigenous Atacameño heritage.
Scoring 7.8 out of 10 from 630 guests, the hostal provides a warm and intimate atmosphere that suits both backpackers and independent couples who want more comfort than a dorm bed without the expense of a high-end desert lodge. The name — "The House of the Rising Sun" — reflects the dramatic sunrises that paint the Andes in deep orange each morning, a spectacle that guests can enjoy from the property's outdoor areas. It is a welcoming hub for travellers sharing Atacama routes, tips, and stories before heading into the desert.
