Parador Santa Maria Real

Emblematic of Sucre’s rich and decadent colonial past, Parador Santa Maria Real cannot fail to impress with its grand halls, charming cerulean blue courtyards and attractive inner balconies.

Sucre, now Bolivia’s constitutional capital, was once very popular with wealthy Spanish settlers and benefitted from the silver trade of Potosí.

The effect of its affluent colonial past is Sucre’s magnificent old town with its Andalucian cultural influences and architecture.

The hotel’s rooms have been kept in the original style of its bygone era with beautifully restored antiques, authentic four-poster beds, heavily draped curtains, polished wood floors, and with all the expected modern comforts.

Parador Santa Maria Real’s red-riled roof terrace is the ideal place to watch the sun set over the city’s convent and church speckled skyline and surrounding hills before descending to the hotel’s underground passages and cavernous restaurant to dine.
