Lonely Planet review

A stalwart of the Coroico scene, this hotel complex above town is very popular, and has something of a resort feel, with its pool, sauna and regular tour groups. There's a variety of rooms; the cheapest are tiny and dark, with shared bathrooms, but the suites are stunning, with balconies with great views and hammocks to swing in. The hotel has good facilities - pool table, internet, laundry, wi-fi and a restaurant that does buffet lunches and dinners, as well as pizza nights. You can arrange a transfer to La Paz or El Alto airport, and they will pick up free from the plaza in Coroico. Otherwise, it's a seven-minute walk up the hill.
