Although expensive by Bolivian standards, this place is definately worth the extra money. The rooms are nicely decorated in the original style, and the place has charm and character. If you want something above average, we can definately recommend this place. more

A real jewel. This hotel was restored with love and taste, preserving the magnificent Spanish architecture and period furniture. The Spaniards leaved something after all. The hotel room was large as well as the bathroom. The antiques in each room are different and all top notch. All amenities in the bathroom, great linens and towels and good beds. Good shower... more

SUPER, SUPER EXCELLENT!!! We have been travelling all around the world and I really have to admit that Parador Santa Maria la Real in Sucre is one of the best hotel I have ever been in more than 30 years! If you wanna spend a night or more in a colonial, luxury and high quality class standard hotel this parador... more

A really wonderful hotel. Beautiful with great service. Colonial building, antique furniture, great service (except for one unsmiling receptionist who was always a bit grumpy), good breakfasts, amazing roof terrace with stunning views over the city, cathedral and surrounding mountains. Comfy rooms, fantastic bell-boy Jose for whom nothing is too much trouble, luxurious bathrooms (by Bolivian standards), beautiful communal areas,... more

This is certainly the most beautiful hotel in lovely Sucre. The rooms are decorated with antiques and the amenities are totally modern. Sonia Pascual, one of the owners, is a former art educator and restorer of colonial art. She has lovingly decorated the rooms and public areas in colonial style- even painting the patio a beautiful blue that apparently was... more

The Parador is reputedly the best hotel in Sucre. I'm inclined to agree. The converted colonial mansion has a great location - only a couple of blocks from the main square - and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. They even offered to go to the post office to buy stamps for us to put on our postcards. We... more

Over the years we have been lucky enough to stay at some amazing hotels around the World such as Raffles Singpaore, Oriental Bangkok, Four Seasons Chiang Mai and Sanctuary Lodge Machu Picchu...but I can honestly say that this little gem can readily join this illustrious group. When price is taken into consideration, this is possibly the best hotel we have... more

Was simply amazed at how charming this hotel was. The building has been beautifully converted with tremendous attention to detail. Stayed either side of a trip to Potosi and both times the rooms were very comfortable and well equipped (Rm 304 was especially delightful). Pleasant public areas, the roof terrace affords great views and is a wonderful place to watch... more

I really loved this hotel. First at all, I have to say that Sucre is a beautiful place, a great colonial city, clean, safe, very interesting. The hotel is centrally located (walking distance to most of Sucre´s highlights) in an old (but fully renovated) and beautiful colonial mansion. Rooms are big and modern, Cable TV, huge bathrooms, comfortable beds. The... more
