A Feature Hostel

El Tesoro de Elqui is one of our favorite hostels and it's easy to see why. And no, it's not just because they have amazing accommodations, which includes a pool. But this desert getaway in the Elqui Valley of Chile gets 320 days of sunshine a year and they have an incredible restaurant, friendly staff and offer excursions into the nearby Valley. It is an amazing travel destination for all South American backpackers and a MiniHostel favorite. Check them out!

Why They Love Us

El Corre Caminos Hostel in Salta just shared with us a little why they like being a part of MiniHostels and we thought we'd share.

The woman we spoke to said, "She liked how much we were based in Argentina and not just some big international company. " She´s also mentioned how there has been a noticeable increase in the amount of MH members coming to her hostel in the past two months.

Thanks El Corre Caminos for the love! And thank you all for making MiniHostels the best travel network in South America.
