It could be quite loud if you get a room towards the street, so ask for a room towards the back. It is planned that in August 2012 a new complex will be opened, so the noise problem could disappear. The hotel is close to restaurants and to the city. Really lousy shuttle service to the airport (usually from the... More

We stayed a couple of nights at this hotel. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. The AC worked just fine. The breakfast was included and was great. The location is ok. There is a shuttle service that brings you to the airport but make sure to have your name on the list. Wifi is available in the rooms. More

Due to a mix up by our travel agent we actually stayed in Hotel Cortez (No 5 Tripadvisor) and Hotel LP Santa Cruz (No 1 Tripadvisor) all within a few days. OK a little bit more expensive but Hotel Cortez was an easy favorite. Better location, better room and absolutely perfect wi-fi, TV and air conditioning. The room was spotlessly... More

Meh, is the best way to describe it. A couple things, 1. it has a pool, but its not a resort style pool or anything that invites you to dip in. 2. They are constructing a nice new tower, so its noisy during weekdays 3. the staff is a little pretentious, its not that they are rude, they are just... More

The room was fairly modern with a good air con. system. The hotel is well located for restaurants and coffee shops but it is quite a long walk to the main square. We had breakfast and an evening meal in the restaurant, both were fine. There is an area with free internet which was very good. There is a big... More

The place is average, free shuttle (but not for late flights, in this case it's overpriced), swiminpool useless with the construction of a new building. Because of the construction the area is noisy (try to know if you will be impacted). Rooms are alright a bit old fashionable, try to ask rooms on the garden not on the street. The... More

Hotel Cortez is a nice hotel. My problem was with the noise. They are adding a whole new building that dwarfs the current hotel. The noise lasts all day till 6:30 pm. You will hear the pounding of hammers and sawing from most all rooms of the hotel for some months to come, since this is a big project. Perhaps... More

Me and my boyfriend have been travelling around Bolivia for a couple of weeks and we stayed in this hotel for 2 days. Prices are reasonable, food is good and location is great. They have a shuttle service for the airport and free internet. More

In a city like Santa Cruz, this is one of the best hotels you can find. Just make sure your room does not face the street since it's quite noisy all day. Beds are modest and a bit uncomfortable but the price is right and the other services of the hotel work fine. Restaurant is very good, internet also. Location... More

We stayed at the Hotel Cortez on a Mission Awareness Trip. It is a beautiful hotel with a nice pool and restaurant, Internet suite of 4 computers, air conditioning, and excellent staff. The air conditioner does not stay on when you leave the room, so you come back to a hot and muggy room, but at least there is air... More
