Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to El Bunker, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (above 3rd floor) to minimize potential street noise from Calle Tacna, a moderately trafficked street in Ica. Considering the hotel's 3-star rating and address on a Calle, it's likely to have a more straightforward layout with no complex corridors or internal rooms, so rooms on higher floors are more likely to be quieter.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms near the service entrance (likely on the ground floor) may experience more noise from the hotel's operations and potential delivery traffic. Additionally, rooms on lower floors (e.g., 1st or 2nd) may be more prone to street noise from Calle Tacna.
Best views
Since the hotel is located on Calle Tacna, the best view options are likely to be rooms with a view of the surrounding streets or the nearby buildings. However, the exact view will depend on the room's orientation and position on the floor.

Principali attrazioni a Ica
💡 Grab a ceviche from one of the stalls on the side streets for about 10 soles. Avoid the overpriced churros from touts near the cathedral. Best visited late afternoon when the heat drops and people start gathering.
💡 Bring swimwear if you want to paddle; the water is murky but locals swim. Avoid the boat rental—overpriced and the pond is tiny. Best at dawn when the tour groups haven't arrived yet.
💡 Skip the overpriced cafes near the car park. Walk around to the far side for quieter spots and better photo angles. Go early in the morning or just before sunset for cooler sand and fewer people.
💡 Entrance costs about 8 soles (roughly £1.60). Bring a phrasebook or a translation app as there are no English labels. Allow 45 minutes to an hour; it's not huge. Closed on Mondays.
💡 The basic tour costs 15 soles and includes three samples. Go for the 'Premium' tour (25 soles) if you want to taste their older piscos—it's worth it, but book ahead. They sell good-value bottles at the shop, much cheaper than in restaurants.
