Don’t come here
Pros:

The service

Cons:

2/5 stars — Disappointing conditions despite high ratings

I’m genuinely surprised this hotel has an 8.7 rating on Booking.com and five stars on Google, because our experience was extremely disappointing. The room was in deplorable condition, with what appeared to be blood-like stains on the curtains and signs that the room and its fixtures were falling apart.

The two stars are solely for the lovely gentleman who helped us arrange a taxi and the friendly breakfast lady, who were both kind and helpful.

Unfortunately, the hotel’s location and surroundings were equally unpleasant. It is tucked away in a foul-smelling alley beside a dumpster, with dirty liquid spilling onto the ground. The surrounding street smelled strongly of urine mixed with cooking gas.

Overall, the condition of the room and the unpleasant surroundings fell far below what we expected from a property with such high ratings. The kindness of two staff members was appreciated, but it was not enough to make up for the overall experience. I would not stay here again.

Pros:

Nice comfortable hotel tucked in side street, quiet at night but cannot escape the loud motorcycle or engine noise because of nearby through streets.
The hotel is small, only 7 rooms, basic but comfortably furnished, spacious room, good bed, hot water, electric heater.
Internet weak in room but strong in the common area upstairs.
Breakfast is adequate and well prepared, however we are not big eaters.
Price is good value especially they gave us a late midnight check out for half the room price.

Cons:

Somewhat noisy during daytime because it's next to a school.

Pros:

Das Hotel ist sehr schoen, klein und persoenlich, in wunderbarer Lage direkt am Prado und in einem sehr schoenen alten Gebaeude. Das Fruehstueck hat uns besonders gut gefallen, und alle waren sehr freundlich! Man bekommt auch sehr schnell und unkompliziert die Waesche gewaschen. Wir kommen gern wieder!

Cons:

Es ist natuerlich nicht besonders ruhig - das liegt aber einfach an der Lage direkt am Prado. Wenn man da empfindlich ist, sollte man vielleicht lieber woanders wohnen. Uns hat es nichts ausgemacht!

Comfortable quiet hotel near the center of La Paz with great staff!
Pros:

We had a fantastic stay at El Consulado. Everyone at the hotel was very friendly and accommodating. We appreciated the breakfast each morning, their flexibility in helping us leave for and arrive from tours at unusual hours, and their help in arranging airport transfers, laundry service, etc. The room was big, clean, and comfortable. The location is also great, just a block from the Paso del Prado, and a short walk from the nearest teleferico station and many other things, but quiet at night. Thanks very much! We hope very much to stay again next time we have the opportunity to visit La Paz! :)

Cons:

We read many reviews about the cat and wish we had seen it more!

Conforto e praticidade em La Paz
Pros:

Excelente experiência! O quarto era confortável, limpo e muito bem cuidado, e toda a equipe foi extremamente atenciosa.

Outro ponto forte é a localização, excelente para conhecer a região, com fácil acesso às principais atrações, restaurantes e serviços. Bem no centro de La Paz e muito próximo a Sopocachi, bairro bom para bares e restaurantes.

Ainda possuem uma agência de turismo local que viabiliza passeios.

Com certeza recomendamos o hotel para quem busca conforto, praticidade e um ótimo custo-benefício.

Cons:

O café da manhã era limitado e com opções restritas.

Gros problèmes pour payer. Au final ça revient plus cher que prévu ! Attendez-vous à des discussions interminables pour
Pros:

La taille de la chambre, le charme désuet, le fait que Juan Carlos parle français.
Petit déjeuner frais mais vraiment basique.

Cons:

Le prix exorbitant pour La Paz du early check-in à 24$ sans petit dej négocié à 20$. Le prix du late check-out également à 24$ négocié à 20$ alors que par mes excursions je ratais deux petits déjeuners non déduits !
Ce que j’ai vraiment trouvé insupportable c’est qu’à deux reprises (désert Uyuni au milieu) pour le payement cela a été très pénible pour payer. J’ai quitté cet hôtel très déçue et en colère, voici pourquoi :
La première fois : sur sa machine il a Bol ou Dollar. Je lui demande de payer en Bol. Il me dit que ce n’est pas possible en ce moment ?! Avec une explication vraiment vaseuse. Cela me fait une somme au final de quelques euros de plus que prévu. Comme je ne veux pas
d’histoire et comme il me garde ma valise quelques jours, j’accepte le paiement par carte mais cela ne m’a pas plus.
La deuxième fois : pour deux nuits, j’ai eu droit à un véritable sketch qui s’est révélé interminable.
J’ai voulu payer par carte. Je m’attendais à payer en dollar comme la 1 ère fois. Eh bien ça ne fonctionnait plus. Bizarrement la machine ne prenait plus les $ cette fois-ci, il fallait payer en BOL. Mais avant il fallait convertir en $ puis en BOL. Ça me revenait plus cher que le prix affiché.
Ses calculs ont duré au moins 30 minutes. De guerre lasse, j’ai payer en espèces en € ce qui ne m’arrangeait pas du tout ! J’avais ma valise à préparer et mes vêtements de la journée étaient trempés suite à la pluie.
J’avais vraiment autre chose à faire !

Sachez qu’il ne lâche pas l’affaire et est vraiment près de ses sous. Cela aurait pu durer encore plus longtemps si je n’y avait pas mis un terme.
De plus le ménage n’avait pas été fait dans la chambre, les serviettes changées pas changées ! Ça rendait le prix de la chambre encore plus cher.

J’ai aussi pris une excursion que j’ai payé 700 BOL.
Sur place, j’ai appris que tout le monde avait payé 550 BOL. Il m’a remboursé les 150 BOL de trop perçu.
Pour restée diplomate, j’ai parlé d’une erreur de l’agence.
