The staff were excellent, the location was great however the property and rooms themselves could use a facelift with a paint job. I was here for two nights and I felt safe as a solo traveler. The floors and my bed were clean so that helped and they fixed my sliding screen door so that I could use the door to get airflow as there was not an AC in my room. It was very helpful to have airport transfers also!

Pros - rustic charm in a very convenient location with very useful airport shuttle. Cons - bathroom had terrible smell, no Aircon - the room was so hot had to leave patio doors open 24hrs. Easter island is really safe but still felt uncomfortable not being able to lock the room up.

Hotel on the island. Don't expect a look like in four seasons, for example, everything is very simple and ascetic. Clean, the staff tries to help you as much as they can. Everyone speaks Spanish, but they speak English at the reception. Breakfasts are standard for the island, sandwiches/fruits/coffee. Very good location. WiFi works only in lobby

We were able to book our tours & rent a car all at the hotel, and for better prices than we found in town. The entire hotel was very clean and the staff were very friendly.

Our room and certain common areas were clearly dated but overall our stay was very good. The staff is very nice and the pick up and drop off at the airport was a great perk. The hotel is centrally located and you can walk to town and all the dining options.

The great choice for my stay. Near the beach and the main street with affordable price and with the sea view from my bed. The breakfast was not too fancy but still sufficient.

The staff were all wonderful— friendly and so eager to help with everything. The location was fabulous. Logistics were the only issue: no hot water, very warm room, the screen door didn’t lock and big gaps allowed mosquitoes in. Definitely works for an affordable place to sleep.
Verified review

6/10 Good

Tupa Hotel is primitive compared to a budget hotel in the US. No AC in any of the rooms & humidity is about 75-80% every day with temperatures only fluctuating a couple degrees per day & night. March 2026 78 during day, 75-76 at night. Only the receptionist speaks English. Breakfast is deli meats, cheeses, bread, coffee, tea, yogurt, fruit. The staff is incredibly friendly & do their best to accommodate your stay. Chickens, horses, dogs roam loose. Groups of guests can be extremely rude, self-righteous, and pretentious. This is a good choice to sleep & shower but luxury it is not. If you’re here to experience the island, stay at Tupa. If you’re here for a world class experience, pay a lot more to stay somewhere else.

The location is beautiful and close to everything. The hotel is older and needs some upgrades, but clean and the staff is wonderful. Everyone is very nice and helpful. The breakfast is good and you can get cold and hot water all day long for tea or coffee. Also they can help you with booking tours around the island. All in all it’s been a great experience.

4/10 Fair

The staff are courteous and polite; however, effective communication often requires the use of translation tools. Breakfast is satisfactory. While the housekeeping team is making an effort to maintain the property, the overall condition of the hotel requires significant improvement and major repairs. The rooms lack air conditioning, relying solely on fans. There are also concerns regarding pests, including mosquitoes and flies, and I encountered a lizard in the room. Additionally, leaving the door open may allow animals such as dogs or chickens from outside to enter. The rooms have a noticeable mold odor, and there is no hot water available. This hotel may be suitable for a short stay of one to two nights, but it is not recommended for longer visits. Overall, the property does not meet expectations for VIP access.

Convenient airport shuttle. Convenient location that is an easy walk to main downtown area. WiFi only worked in breakfast area and was spotty even there. Rooms were mediocre/rundown - floors and walls were dirty. Hot water was sporadic. Bathroom was moldy. Bed was comfortable but had bits of dirt or sand and a couple of dead bugs in it. There is no A/C. It probably was a nice hotel at one point but has not been updated or maintained. Staff were helpful but did not seem happy to be there.
Seaview room
Verified review

4/10 Fair

We booked a sea view room which in the Expedia description mentioned as a renovated room and were allocated to a garden view room that was far from being renovated. On a hot day, the room gets smell of plumbing, there was insects in the room, we got a broken window in the bathroom and overall the room was very old, including the linen used in the bed. Although there's the bad side, the hotel is in a very convenient location, you can walk into town and to the airport as well, and even tho the room was not the best, it had a comfortable bed. The breakfast was a continental breakfast, simple but enough to get you going for the day. The transfers to the airport are a great service the hotel offers. The best part of the stay was their team. The people working in the hotel were lovely and helpful. So, they made up to the down side of the rooms.

Outdated property with good staff and nice vibe. The shower did not worked, most of the hotel has noticeable issues with humidity and requires repairs. The breakfast was below average but heard that is the standard across the island, although the food in general at the island was really good (specially sea food and ceviche). The tour operators from the hotel were great as well as the cleaning and service staff.

4/10 Fair

The accommodations are modest, at best. The service is generally not welcoming or friendly. The breakfast was disappointing. Everything was minimalist. The clean towels appeared dirty and had nasty stains. I would say that it lacks love, care and attention from leadership or ownership. The best I can say is that the bed was comfortable. It was expensive for such a poor quality and level of service. I would not recommend it.
