The creation of the hotel in the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia, was in 1998 by the wild initiative of an hidalgo man, Juan Quesada Valda, pioneer in the salt hotels worldwide. Juan’s innovative and creative idea of building a hotel 100% made of salt (walls, ceilings, tables, chairs and others) was materialized in what he called Palacio de Sal. With a unique and sui generis architecture, its objective was to provide to the visitors of the salt flats a place to find a balance with nature and enjoy a pleasant and unforgettable rest. In 2004 the hotel was moved to the banks of the salt flats with the main purpose of providing a service according to the needs of customers. Since then the exotic, modern and native are combined to create, in over 4,500 square meters, the first salt hotel in the world, a touristic attraction worth to be known.
We have 30 rooms that catch the eye because they look like igloos build with salt blocks. All our rooms have private bathroom, hot and cold water and central or electric heating. With windows that provide a frame for the salt flat with unique images, in a nice cozy ambience, the dining room has the amenities to enjoy our exclusive and exquisite meals based on salt.
