Seven Crown La Paz Centro Histórico
Staff were very nice and made us feel important and welcome every day. They answered our questions and made excellent suggestions for our travel plans. The hotel room itself was the basic one.

InHouse Glamping Hotel La Paz
Cute property, rooms basic but clean and nice. The only issue is noise. The Malecon and nearby bars and clubs can be heard until late at night. I had earplugs so not a problem, consider bringing some if you choose to stay.

Hotel HBlue Centro
Excellent hotel. I’m a Hilton Diamond member and this place impressed me !! The restaurant for the breakfast is absolutely fantastic. Food is great and staff is attentive. The entire property is nearly spotless. The A/C in the room will freeze you out if you wish. Definitely would stay again.
