Hotel El Consulado

La Paz


Seven delightful rooms are housed in the converted Panamanian consulate, a stunning colonial building, above the cafe of the same name. This boutique place oozes European style (it’s Danish run), with large, airy and spacious rooms in a quiet location. Those with private bathrooms have clawed baths.
