Hi Hotel Jerusalem
Residencial 10 De Noviembre
Run by the Cerro de Plata tour agency, it’s a recently renovated spot in a tall white building with fresh paint outside and in. Rooms are perfectly decent, with reliable hot water, and there’s a pleasant covered terrace.
Hotel Coloso Potosí
Potosi’s latest and only five-star opening, it has all the perks of a luxury hotel – spick-and-span rooms with minibars, heating and wi-fi – but suffers from a stuffy formal atmosphere. There’s a pool, a restaurant, a sauna and room service.
Hostel Compañía De Jesús
For sparkling clean rooms, firm mattresses, lots of blankets and a friendly atmosphere, stay in this old but freshly painted Carmelite monastery with a leafy courtyard and two patios.
Residencial Sumaj
This longtime budget standby has small rooms with shared bathroom. It’s only worth staying on the top floor, which is lit by skylights; those downstairs are dreadfully dingy.
Hostal Santa María
This clean and decent option has carpeted rooms with OK beds and private bathroom. There are flowers around the courtyard, piping-hot showers and phones, but no heating.
Residencial Felcar
This friendly place makes a sound option with its clean, simple rooms (you’ll want a sleeping bag in the cheaper ones). Newer rooms with bathrooms are attractive, with typical Latin American furniture, TVs and heaters.
Hostal María Victoria
This attractive hostel occupies an old colonial home at the end of a quiet lane. The rooms surround a classic whitewashed and tree-shaded courtyard; there’s also a roof terrace with views.
Macuquina Dora Hotel
This pleasant if slightly faded modern hotel is in a handy central location. There’s cordial service, and clean, attractive heated rooms with heart-shaped cushions on the frilly beds.
Hostal Las Tres Portadas
Situated in one of Potosí’s most characterful buildings and based around two pretty patios, this blue-colored hotel is well run and adequately heated. The rooms all have comfortable beds and come with minibar and excellent bathroom.
Hostal Felimar
This pleasant and centrally located hostel has some low-ceilinged rooms and some nicer upstairs rooms with balconies affording views over the colonial street below. A small breakfast is included and there’s a great suite on the top floor.
Hotel Santa Teresa
This well-appointed hotel is by the convent of the same name, in a quiet part of central Potosí. Built around a whitewashed courtyard, it has smallish but pleasant rooms; the upstairs units have more light.
Hotel El Turista
This recently revamped hotel offers spacious and fairly comfortable rooms with heating, electric showers, TVs and superb views from the top floor. It’s pretty good value, with an airy feel, nice wooden floors and vibrantly colored patio.
Hostal Colonial
In a well-kept colonial building near the main plaza, this warm, whitewashed retreat has smallish rooms with windows onto a central courtyard; all have minibars and cable TV, and some have bathtubs.
Koala Den
The colorful and clean Koala is a favorite for its traveler-friendly facilities and backpacker-social vibe. The dorms and rooms are cozy, with bedspreads that have designs ranging from Dr Seuss to Garfield.
Hotel Jerusalén
Popular with visiting groups, this relaxed hotel is a dependable choice. Nobody would really claim that it’s great value for money, but comfort counts; the staff can arrange all sorts of tours, and the rooms have quality gas showers and cable TV.
Hotel Cima Argentum
This professionally run place with a light-flooded patio is a handsome, somewhat formal choice with decent facilities, including safes and minibars in every room, and off-street parking.
Hostal San José
This cheap place has a cheery welcome and decent location; a second floor was going up at research time.
