The rooms are very old and dated but they are clean. Rooms facing the road can be quite noisy with the traffic so stay on a higher floor if possible. The reception staff are friendly and very helpful. They even offered to make me a special breakfast when I had to leave at 4am for an early flight! More

El Dorado achieved the status of worst breakfast in our 6 weeks of travel. Don't wast your time even attending. Rooms are dirty, dark and dated. We moved to Hotel Las Brisas and it was in a much better area and better rooms. The area around El Dorado on a Sunday is very quiet and i wouldn't venture too far... More

We spent 4 nights at El Dorado. We liked the hotel and absolutely loved the location. It is set a bit away from the touristy area packed full of tourist booking offices (and tourists), but that neighborhood is still only a 15-20 minute walk away or easily accessible by micro. However, just a few blocks downhill is a more upscale... More

The rooms here are very cramped. Initially we had a triple room although one of our friends sloped off to a 5* for 2 nights (couldn't hack the budget hotel pace) and we were given a small twin. When we said we'd have the triple thinking we'd have more room the reception told us that they would put another mattress... More

this hotel was built in the 60s and nothing has changed. The rooms are reasonably comfortable and warm but its very tired. All of the linens and towels are threadbare and chewing gum grey. Staff are mediocre - not particularly helpful and everything seems like an effort. Its like they have better things to do (ie stand around gossiping) than... More

Stayed here with a tour group. Nothing fancy (as one would expect) but perfectly fine. Clean and comfy rooms, helpful staff (arranged for a maintenance man to remove a broken padlock from my luggage in minutes). I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone who is not pretentious. Great, central location too (10 mins walk from Plaza San Fransisco). More

Threadbare rooms, though they changed us to a slightly better one. Decore was Soviet Union 1950's Difficult desk staff - insisted on us getting our passport and visa copied somewhere in town!!! Doormen helpful. Waitstaff helpful and attentive. No water to drink in room, had to call for towels. More

Not only for the great price I will remember my stay at this Hotel in La Paz. Beside the staff was very friendly and rooms clean had warm decoration. Simplicity means right when you pay a great value rate. I recommend this Hotel as a safe service is given. More
