For most visitors to the region, Chacalluta International Airport (ARI) is the primary and most convenient gateway, as it is the only airport located directly in Arica and handles the majority of domestic Chilean traffic. It offers the fastest access to the city center via taxi or shared shuttle. The other options are located in neighboring cities in Peru and are not airports of Arica. Tacna Airport (TCQ) serves the nearby Peruvian city of Tacna and is a common alternative for travelers; while it requires crossing an international border—which can add time due to immigration procedures—it remains a viable secondary hub. Finally, Ilo Airport (ILQ) is located significantly further away in the Peruvian city of Ilo, making it the least practical choice for those strictly visiting Arica. Travelers should note that cross-border transit between Peru and Chile involves specific documentation and customs steps, which makes domestic flights into ARI significantly more seamless for those prioritizing time and ease of travel.

Good customer service from Natalia in reception. I had a tour early morning and couldn't get breakfast but she told me to get a breakfast box as it is the policy. Unfortunately, for dietary reasons what was offered the next morning was not ideal. She then told me to go to breakfast and get what would be there as well as a hot milk /coffee from the coffee machine or even buy a capuccino, latte from the waiter. However, to my surprise, the next morning, a waiter called Alfredo, was so rigid and not flexible at all. I arrived 15 minutes before breakfast and refused to serve me any hot drink. For someone who stayed 3 days, a bit of flexibility would have been welcome. Alfredo, you let NOVOTEL down.FromUS$56

Chambre confortable mais avec des petits soucis techniques désagréables au niveau de la douche (il faut attendre au moins 5min pour avoir l'eau chaude. Mais au fur et à mesure de mon séjour, je constate que la plupart des appartements au CHILE sont concernés par ce problème 😔 plus manque de pression aux WC).
Mur des chambres non épais au cas où s'il y a du bruit et fenêtres non en double vitrage.
Le petit déjeuner : vous ne manquez rien! Qualité non au rendez vous. J'ai fait une petite remarque pour ma part de Cake à la personne qui gère le déjeuner, elle m'a à peine écouté sans plus alors que ça relevait de la sécurité alimentaire pour tous.
Point positif :
- Placement non loin des lieux à visiter
- Commodités de la chambre simple et bien, petite lisseuse au dessus de chaque lit. J'enlève des étoiles à cause du petit dej. et le comportement de la serveuse.
- Le réceptionniste toujours présent donc pas mal si vous arrivez tardivement. Il faudra le préciser lors de votre réservation et vous conseille de le confirmer à nouveau 24h avant.
- Le réceptionniste répond rapidement aux demandes exceptionnelles.
Pour conclure, je recommande cet hôtel pour deux nuits maximum.FromUS$31
