Very nice hostel, felt like staying in someone's home, in a good way. Easy walk from the bus station, clean kitchen and bathrooms, good breakfast, and friendly owner - we had to wait until the evening for our next bus and were welcome to spend the day at the hostel, which was nice since there's not much to see in...

It can be a bit hard to find - most of the roads around it don't have their names displayed prominently and our taxi driver had to ask directions a couple of times. It's a bit of a long walk to the centre and not a particularly nice walk either. However, it is very close to the big beach just... More

Very close to bus terminal. A little bit of walk to downtown but not a problem at all. Jenny is super nice and helpful. The room is very comfortable but the 5 bed dorm has no locker. Shower is very good. Kitchen is huge and very well equipped. A big market close by. 2 min to the beach.

I stayed to Arica Unite only for one night, but it was enough to notice how wonderful this hostel is. First of all, it's really clean. Jennifer, the owner, is joyful and welcoming. Rooms are comfortable and have lockers big enough for all your stuff. You have all the services you need in there : complete kitchen, breakfast, hot showers,... More

We arrived late without much of a reservation and we were greated with a warm welcome. The place is comfortable, quiet and clean. Great area to relax on the rooftop, or the back garden and we were right accross from the beach and a 5min walk to the bus stop. We originally only planed to be here for 1 night... More

If you’re tired of hostels with peeling paint, tiny kitchens with one battered pot, and a dingy atmosphere, Arica Unite will be a breath of fresh air. French owner Jenny brings a European sensibility to the facility, so the large kitchen is completely equipped; bathrooms are clean and showers are hot; beds have clean sheets and comfortable mattresses. I would... More

We stayed here for one night as a stopover between San Pedro and Cuzco which was ideal. Our bus was due into Arica at 5am and the owner said that woudn't be a problem to turn up so early in the morning which was great. We stayed in a 4 bed dorm which was clean and comfortable. The bathrooms were... More
