Best Hotels in Antofagasta

This is a city built on mining wealth, where the stark beauty of the Atacama Desert meets the Pacific. Antofagasta's main draw is its dramatic coastal geography and industrial history. Walk the length of the Costanera, the city's long oceanfront avenue, to see the iconic Portada de Antofagasta, a natural stone arch rising from the sea. The historic Barrio Civico, with its clock tower donated by the British community, speaks to the city's past, while a trip to the eerie, abandoned nitrate mining town of Humberstone offers a profound look into the region's economic backbone.

The city serves as a practical hub for exploring northern Chile. It suits business travelers and independent adventurers using it as a launchpad for trips to the desert's salt flats and geysers. The best areas to stay are along Avenida Balmaceda for coastal views or near the Plaza Colón for easy access to restaurants and shops. Arturo Merino Benítez Airport provides good domestic connections, and the city is a major stop on the Pan-American Highway.

On HOTEVI, you'll find around 14 hotels available here. Accommodation is dominated by reliable, modern business hotels and a selection of good-value mid-range options, with a few budget-friendly hostels for backpackers. You can expect comfortable stays with the essential amenities, perfect for regrouping after a day of desert exploration or before a flight.
