Lodge Quelana is the perfect place to stay, a respite just outside of the dusty, tourist filled town of San Pedro. We were so glad to not be staying in the town. We had a car, so it was convenient, but one could take taxis and Ubers. The people working the front desk (that would be you, Paola) and in the breakfast room are really helpful and friendly. The rooms are actually small casitas and very comfortable and well furnished. I especially liked the privacy this afforded and our small private patio. We traveled for almost five weeks in Chile and Argentina, and this was our favorite place that we stayed. The pool is clean and nice. The breakfast is generous and good, a combination of eggs cooked to order and a buffet of baked goods, fruits, yogurt, meat and cheese, and fresh juices made on site. Paola helped us arrange the tickets that were needed to visit some of the sights and suggest options to us. We were reluctant to leave when it was time to head to Patagonia.
We stayed for a week and we loved our time here. From the moment we arrived, the staff was welcoming, generous, and kind. We enjoyed talking to everyone at reception and getting their advice on where to go and what to see while in San Pedro. We got fantastic advice on bike rentals, mountain biking, and tour agencies, and we had the perfect experience. We had breakfast, lunch, and dinner here and the food was always delicious, healthy, and generous. We especially enjoyed connecting with the dining room staff, Carmen, Hanai, Daniel, Paul and the others whose names we didn’t get (so sorry!). Kudos to Jaime, the chef, for a delicious dinner menu, and great lunch sandwiches! Rooms are clean and comfortable; housekeeping staff does an amazing job given how windy and dusty it is here in San Pedro (at least in July!). So quiet and peaceful—we absolutely loved it. It really is the best place for the perfect San Pedro vacation!
Ficamos no loft. Do lado de fora muito calor durante o dia e dentro super fresco. Durante as noites frio fora e dentro super agradável. Não usamos coberta nenhum dia. Fabian, o dono é muito atencioso e simpatico. Banheiro pequeno mas muito bonitinho, reformado. Chuveiro muito bom. Como é deserto as vezes tem problema na distribuição de água, diminui a vazão de água mas isso faz parte. Uma dia aconteceu apenas. Wifi eh top. O loft eh uma casa bem Na esquina no hotel e pelo que entendo eh tombada, e eh um charme. Um guia foi nos buscar e viu por dentro, ficou encantado. Di que nao se encontra mais aquela forma de aquecer e refrescar o ambiente. Muito legal. Ficaria la novamente. Obs: tem escada para chegar no quarto e teto eh baixo , uma obs para quem tem alguma dificuldade. Ahhhh e a localização dele eh das Melhores. Ponto fortíssimo a localização
We booked this hotel through a package and we were extremely pleased. The hotel is reached by crossing a small bridge over a canal after entering the property. The hotel is decorated with many indigenous pieces and has a courtyard with shady spaces set aside for relaxing and a small pool for cooling off. The rooms are nice and spacious and all have a refrigerator for placing water and snacks in. Yes it is rustic but it is clean and comfortable. By far the best part were the wonderful people working there. Our Spanish is very limited but we used google translate and had no problems. The kind gentleman allowed us to check in early as we had arrived from the airport a few hours prior to check in but had a tour booked for the afternoon. The breakfast was simple but healthy and plentiful. Each day we were asked if we wanted eggs. The hotel was always willing to help us in any way. They pointed out the area for us to change money and the store right across the street where we were able to stock up on water. Everyone was so helpful. We had a very positive experience here. Don’t hesitate to book this hotel!
