HOSTAL SALARES

Excellent hostel and lovely smiles :) I cannot recommend it more if you are swinging by Tupiza.
ALSO : they offer an INCREDIBLE tour of Uyuni and the south zone of Uyuni. One of the best experiences of my life, do not hesitate to ask the owner for the 3-4 day tour, you will not regret it.
They drop you off the last day in Uyuni city !

Amazing place!! One of the best in all of South America for the cleanliness, friendliness and over all vibe. Not to mention a friendly, chilled out dog who is always happy to see you. Super friendly staff and amazing views of the mountains across the river.. not to mention the hostal is in the mountains! 10 minute walk to bus station and city center. Beautiful spot and they can organize horse rides at a better price then any tour companies around. They really care about your stay and go the extra mile. Don't miss out!

Could not recommend more the combo Los Salares hotel + 4 days tour with this little family owned company!
The double rooms + private bathroom are more than comfy and private in the hostel, and very affordable (especially if you are already a client from the tour), and Santos and Celia are always around to help you out with anything. As well as their super cute puppy 🥰
As for the tour, we were 4 and went with Santos who has been a guide for 20+ years: 4x4 more than comfy and super well looked after; the hostels on the way were a mix of above average and comfortable; the food was always plentiful, ready super quickly and santos was very attentive to everyone’s tastes and diet; of course the places we visited were all beautiful, both nature and villages.
The enthusiasm and dedication to making sure we were happy, and also knew how to get us to popular spots before everyone else (like in laguna catal- Negra which was a treasure!).
Thanks santos !

Really enjoyed our stay at Salares and Tupiza. Great value, clean and very quiet but easy walk into town. Lovely people - highly recommended

We had a really nice stay at the Hostal Salares. We did not book in advance, but the staff was super friendly and made sure we get a room. We felt very save. They serve very delicious breakfast and have a very good laundry service. The location is also very central and you can walk everywhere. The staff was very friendly, helped us with all our questions and made us feel home. We would definitely stay here again!

Very clean and comfortable hostel. Santos provided us with a horse riding tour by one of his friends which we really enjoyed. We also did the Salar de Uyuni tour with him which was great! He speaks english, is eager to answer questions, knowledgeable, cares for the environment and overall a very joyful person! He cooked us all vegetarian food for during the trips and chose some stunning lunch spots. I would highly recommend the hostel and the tours!

Clean room, friendly staff, good price for a private room with 1 bed. Only shame is that breakfast starts at 8, which you usually won’t make it you start a multiple day tour, but it is not included in the price anyways so you do not pay for something you won’t get.

We stayed in this hostel – and did the salares tours with Santos – the husband of the owner.

IT WAS THE MOST UNBELIEVABLE TOUR DONE IN MY LIFE. I have done many tours in my life and this one is the best. Not only would i recommend Santos from Salares Tours as your guide any day, but also what you will see is AMAZING. This was made amazing thanks to Santos our guide. He took extra care of us, so that we would always avoid other cars or tours doing the same trip. We where always on a perfect timing without feeling stressed. We easily asked for more time when needed. He had us arrive at sites with the best timing of light for photos or simply viewing. We could easily ask for more time at stops, or asked him any time to stop – which he did immediately. ALL WAS ALWAYS EASY. We asked him loads of question and he happily answered 99% of them. Some he honestly said that he didn't know. At the end of our journey he helped us to take really good photos in the salt lakes which brought us good laughs and great memories. Other memorable moments where the night skies, the sunrise on salt lakes, the hot baths, the flamingos, the rock formations... and so much more. At the end of the trip we had tears in our eyes from having to leave Santos – as he really touched our hearts and showed us his soul.
We traveled long hours in the car – nearly all day – but the atmosphere was kind and always joyful. THE CAR AND HIS EQUIPMENT IS REALLY GOOD so we didn't feel tired, shaken or tossed around on those desert tracks. Finally we really enjoyed that Santos was more on the cultural side of things as other tours just seemed to be getting drunk and listing to loud music all the time. We never really met or got bothered by these groups, as Santos knew all the short cuts – having done this since he was 14years old.
For your personal comfort; People who do this trip must pay attention in bringing warm clothes as the nights are very cold and the hostels you will be sleeping in are not heated. And if you like eating veggies like we do, please tell Santos to only cook veggies and if possible loads of quinoa, potatoes, corn and other local stuff.

As for the hotel: the rooms where clean, the location is quite and out of Tupiza being an easy 10 minutes walk to the towns restaurants. The owners are really nice and helpful. The Wife makes great pancakes with a great smile. Love is everywhere with its peace too. It is possible to have your laundry washed at the hotel. And tow - three daily nice walks can be done in near by canyons. As in all hostels we have been to in Bolivia the blankets are synthetic making us sweat but the rooms the clean

Have Fun and enjoy the ride

Very nice staff, helpfull and friendly.
Rooms are basic but clean.
Good value for the price, the hostel is a bit outside the city centre but its only a 5 min walk.

Lovely hostel .. all clean an new. hot showers comfy beds .. lovely owners ..the most kind beautiful people ..enjoyed my stay ...I stayed longer ..really liked Tupiza.. it is a most wonderful place ..

Nice and clean stay. The host are welcomibg and super nice. Just a short walk from the town center. Definitely recommend

Great place! Lovely hosts.

Good hostel, it's look's more like a hotel! And good breakfast.

Excelente servicio en todo sentido. El hostal está impecable y súper cómodo a buen precio, sus dueños celia y Santos te hacen sentir como en casa.
Hicimos el tour de 4 días con Santos, y la verdad diez puntos, camioneta en excelente estado, más de 20 años de experiencia y el nació en uno de los pueblos del recorrido por lo que esta lleno de conocimiento de la zona. La comida es abundante y deliciosa (somos vegetarianos) y unos chicos que viajaban con nosotros cambiaron su dieta a mitad de recorrido y Santos sin problemas pudo resolverlo. Habiendo hecho tour desde uyuni al salar años anteriores, recomiendo hacer su tour desde tupiza. El pueblo tiene mucho más que ofrecer, a mejores precios y limpieza, y este emprendimiento familiar te lo hace saber.

Hôtel très bien situé, un peu à l'écart du centre ville (mais facilement accessible en Tuktuk) donc au calme.
Très propre, accueil sympathique. Très bon rapport qualité/prix. Je recommande vivement !
De plus, Santos, le propriétaire, propose des tours dans le Salar ;)

Mi experiencia en el Hostal Salares fue de maravilla, excelente servicio por el personal, habitaciones bonitas acogedoras sin duda se los recomiendo a los próximos huéspedes.

Tuve una estancia agradable en el Hotel, recomendaría este hotel a otros viajeros que buscan una opción cómoda y conveniente en la zona. Excelente servicio 👍 👏

Recomiendo ciegamente que visiten el Hostal Salares, por su buena atención que es excepcional y por los bellos paisajes que tiene.

Nos hospedamos dos días en el hostal, todo resultó muy bueno, cuarto ordenado y limpio, ducha perfecta y Celia y Santos fueron muy amables, hicimos el tour del Salar de Uyuni y fue increíble! Una experiencia recomendable. Encantados de conocerlos!

Un hermoso lugar muy acogedor la atencion muy buena muy lindo en todo sentido empesando x los baños muy limpios las habitaciones la comida muy buena
