Samary Boutique Hotel

Top choice in Sucre


Samary has an ambitious concept – reproducing a traditional Chuquisaca village in hotel form – and it pulls it off surprisingly well. There’s a plaza, a chapel and even a chichería selling authentic home-brew liquor. Rooms are of the highest standard, adorned with Yamparaez textiles and replica rock carvings.

Attention to detail is king here. Even the bread is baked fresh every morning in a traditional oven on the breakfast terrace.
