3 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 April 2012

We stayed here with a group - the ability to accomodate a large group was a plus. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were clean. Noisy street, the place reeked of cigarette smoke - all the way to the 8th floor! It obviously is where all the locals go to party. Noisy most of the night. We were here... More

Friendly reception, large clean (a bit dated) rooms. Right in the heart of town, walking distance to witches market & other attractions. Restaurant overlooking the city, with excellent food with good service. We dined on their pasta night, fresh pasta & sauces cooked to order. More

We stayed at the Presidente for two nights. I totally agree with other reviewers that the hotel is dated, and like others I have re-based my review on that fact that it is in Bolivia, but in the circumstances I personally found it charming - we had a huge suite with chintzy fabrics and a yellow toilet! Very clean and... More

I couldnt get this property to come up for the restaurant only, so I'm writing here about the restaurant. We were just passing through La Paz...looking for a place for a late lunch. There were 15 of us. Stopped in Hotel Presidente and WOW, were we amazed and impressed. The staff was falling over themselves to take the best care... More

We stayed here at the beginning and end of a two week trip into the Bolivian Amazon. It is in a great location in central La Paz, easy walk to the main square. The hotel feels somewhat dated, but was clean and comfortable and has nice views of the city. We had dinner at the top floor restaurant our last... More

Great location in the centre of La Paz only a 5 min walk from the main square. The room was huge but in need of redecoration. The view over the city was excellent. The breakfast was fine with plenty of choice and staff very good and helpful. More

A tower-block hotel in the centre of La Paz, but showing a general need of redecoration and refurbishment. The decor is tired and, in the restaurant, dated. There is no air conditioning in the rooms, which are otherwise fine - spacious and well-fitted - though one day our room was not made up at all. Food including breakfast is fine... More

A step back in time to 1960s high glamour. Fabulous, spacious rooms (although air con not working). Fantastic service. Stunning views of mountains and city. Superb restaurant with great choice, devilish deserts and cocktails. Excellent, friendly service. A hotel that just sparkles! More
