Parador Santa Maria La Real
SucreSteeped in its colonial past, Parador Santa Maria la Real is an 18th century stately mansion that’s been renovated and restored as a hotel with 21st century luxuries. Set in the heart of Sucre’s historic centre, it’s a fantastic base for exploring Bolivia’s constitutional capital.
The rooms and suites ooze historic charm, with polished wooden floors, period furnishings, traditional textiles and antiques, and balconies overlooking the street or courtyard. The larger suites have spacious sitting rooms and Jacuzzi baths.
A complex of underground chambers has been adapted into a small museum of pre-Hispanic artefacts and a unique dining space serving international and local cuisine. There’s also a coffee bar serving light snacks, wine, and a selection of cocktails.
Spend your days wandering amid the historic buildings, churches, convents, and squares of the Historic Centre, exploring museums and galleries, and venturing further back in time to see dinosaur tracks and prehistoric stone paintings. Then relax in the rooftop Jacuzzi.
