Cerro Rico de Velasco Hostal, Potosi, Bolivia

A little way away from the cluster of hotels and hotels around the centre of Potosi, the Hostal Cerro Rico de Velasco is in an altogether more peaceful and picturesque area of the city. From the higher rooms, this hotel offers great views up at the Cerro Rico.

The staff are really friendly, informal and up for a chat. The rooms are just as welcoming with big, soft beds and wide, airy windows. Combined with the subtle but stylish decoration, the effect is of a British seaside B&B, but with clear views of one of the most stunning mountains in the world.

Facilities:

Private bathrooms, 24 hour hot water, central heating, cable TV, cafeteria (breakfast included), room service, safe deposit box, currency exchange service, laundry service, local and international calls, internet, tour agency, free drinking water in rooms.
