The Best Boutique Hotels in Sucre, Bolivia
Repurposed mansions, centuries-old retreats, colonial properties: there’s a stylish boutique hotel for you in Sucre, Bolivia. To help you find your perfect vacation stay, we’ve rounded up the best. Better yet, they’re all bookable on Culture Trip.
Sucre has everything – looks, charm and history. The symbolic heart of the nation, it was where Bolivian independence was first seeded, and later signed. Surrounded by gorgeous valley scenery, the city’s tumble of colonial whitewashed buildings, with their pretty patios and terracotta-tiled roofs are a joy to explore – alongside authentic indigenous markets and atmospheric museums. But picking the perfect boutique base is paramount – so we’ve compiled the following list to help.
1. On-Boutique
Boutique Hotel
The modest corner-of-the-street setting, moments from the Museo de Santa Clara, belies the high level of comfort and design at this smart little hotel. Glossy, freestanding baths in the open-plan bedrooms, as well as iPod docks, Frette linen and trendy metro-style tiles contrast cleverly with the exposed beams and wooden floors. Start the day with a cooked-to-order breakfast on the sun-soaked roof terrace, where views over the rooftops or across to the mountains will put you in the exploring mood.
2. Parador Santa Maria La Real

3. Hotel Independencia

Compared to the decadently OTT, Versailles-like décor of the public areas in this 16th-century hotel, the bedrooms are surprisingly simple. That said, they’re peaceful and generously sized, and come with green views over the flower-filled central courtyard. The hotel is five minutes’ walk from the vibrant Central Market in Sucre, where a restaurant at the entrance dishes up some of the best chorizos chuquisaqueños (spicy pork sausages) in Bolivia.
