WHY WE LIKE THIS HOTEL

Originally the Consul of Panama and now a listed heritage site, the Hotel Consulado evokes the colonial elegance of a bygone era and is awash with antique furniture, polished hardwood floors and graceful rooms. A splendid glass conservatory opens onto a small Victorian garden, an oasis of peace from the outside world and home to humming birds. There are just 7 handsome, en-suite guestrooms overlooking the garden. The décor is perfectly in tune with the hotel’s classic ambiance and features hand-carved bed frames, stone fireplaces and traditional period fittings, several with antique tubs. There is wireless internet throughout. El Consulado is within easy reach of a number of restaurants yet guests wishing to dine at the hotel can enjoy delicious dishes with a special emphasis on Andean cuisine. Other facilities include a small boutique, gallery and cosy lounge. The Hotel El Consulado is a simple yet charming option La Paz, perfectly placed for exploring the city highlights. Facilities and services are limited yet it is ideal for those looking to avoid the stock city hotels and gain an insight into La Paz’s old world charm.
