Hotel Santa Laura, nestled in the heart of Iquique, Chile, offers a distinctive blend of comfort and affordability. Rated at 3.8 stars, this hotel appeals primarily to travelers seeking practicality alongside a welcoming atmosphere. Its location on Juan Martínez 849 places guests just a block away from Iquique’s bustling market, making it ideal for those eager to explore local culture and cuisine.
The hotel is unique in its structure, composed of two adjoining buildings that cater to different budgets. Guests can choose between economical rooms or more luxurious accommodations, both providing clean and comfortable spaces. This dual arrangement creates a versatile experience, satisfying both modest travelers and those seeking a touch of luxury without sacrificing warmth.
Staff hospitality stands out as a highlight. Visitors frequently praise the friendly and helpful personnel, noting their readiness to assist and foster a restful environment. Yet, the hotel’s size and layout can sometimes challenge guests, with its somewhat maze-like design causing mild confusion. Clearer signage and guidance could enhance navigation within the premises.
While amenities like free Wi-Fi, parking, and a kid-friendly environment add convenience, there are no fitness centers or pools, which might limit active guests seeking those options. The on-site restaurant serves visitors well, though some reviews point out limited variety in meals, especially given the hotel's popularity among mining workers—a key demographic that influences its dining offerings and room occupancy.
Noise can occasionally disrupt sleep due to the high turnover of guests, a trade-off for the hotel’s vibrant, communal vibe. Those who value a lively atmosphere and location convenience will find Hotel Santa Laura a practical choice. The overall experience balances affordability, cleanliness, and sincere service, embodying the genuine spirit of Iquique hospitality.
In sum, Hotel Santa Laura is a solid option for visitors focused on cultural immersion and straightforward comfort. Its charm lies not in opulence but in its genuine care for guests and strategic setting, promising a stay filled with warmth, accessibility, and a true taste of northern Chilean life.

La dueña del lugar es una señora muy amable, y en realidad son dos alojamientos uno junto al otro, la diferencia es el precio de las habitaciones, así que puedes pedir algo lujoso o económico, igual estarás bastante cómodo.
Bueno pero lo único malo q un día fui a tomar desalluno en la mañana temprano como las 5.20 y me dijo una señorita q no se podía tomar por q a esa hora tomaban solo de una empresa q estába ospedada así q eso es lo único malo pero el servicio muy bueno sobre todo las piezas limpias eso es lo mejor
No le doy 5 estrellas solo por el echo de que se trata de un hotel en su mayoría para trabajadores de mineria y las comidas (desayunos, almuerzo y cena), son un poco deficientes a la hora de variedad. Por lo demás todo bien.
Es un hotel muy lindo y pintoresco tiene desde habitaciones simples con baño hasta compartidas con baños afuera casi siempre ocupados por gente de la mineria o grupos con poco presupuesto, la ubicacion es ideal a una cuadra (manzana) del mercado de iquique
Bonito hotel y buen servicio, o acomoda execelente, el único problema es que por tanta gente que llega al hotel a veces no se puede dormir bien
Me encanto, el trato excelente, las habitaciones muy buenas....el personal esta siempre predispuesto a ayudarte....lo recomiendo. Un lugar muy limpio y que invita al descanso....gracias por su atencion y servicio Hotel Santa Laura, es seguro que si volvemos a Iquique vendremos a este lugar...
Hotel muy lindo excelente atención para gente humilde y sencilla pero tiene muchas secciones las cuales si no tienes buena memoria te pierde jajajaj
Bastante grande y bonito pero un problema es que parece laberinto y no hay tan buenas explicaciones de las salas, tuve que preguntar a una señora
