Sucre Homestays

We spent two nights in this lovely, historic property two weeks ago. The staff, especially the proprietor and bartender (Rene?), made our visit very welcoming and comfortable. It's not every property where you are greeted by the proprietor, and he was visible throughout our stay, clearly proud of his fine establishment. The decor is very well suited to the history of the building, and the small museum in the basement is a hidden treasure. One afternoon, we spent a few hours in the bar. The bartender offered a tour of the basement, including the meeting rooms and artifacts, while he also served us drinks and snacks. He was very thoughtful and attentive, and he was especially patient with our very poor Spanish. Breakfast consisted of a nice variety of fruits, breads, meats and cheeses. The omelet station was an unexpected bonus. The breakfast host was very friendly and helpful. Our room (206) faced an air shaft but was very quiet. The bed was somewhat worn, but the antique-style furnishings were beautiful and made us feel like we were staying in a much more expensive hotel. There was no shortage of hot water or water pressure in the large shower. The location of the hotel, one block from Sucre's main plaza, is ideal. Many of Sucre's sights and restaurants are within a very short walk of the hotel. The area felt very safe, even at night. We would definitely recommend this hotel, and we will certainly stay here when we return to Sucre.

Picturesque hotel with a pretty terrace in a very good location 3 blocks from the main square. Our room though was very plain with only the basic of amenities….bed, desk, wardrobe and TV. No heating/cooling, no fridge, no in room safe, no water provided, no tea and coffee facilities. There were no windows to open. Tiny soap bars are provided on the first day. Wifi worked but was patchy. Quite a lot of noise at night from the street so you needed earplugs to sleep. Breakfast selection was pretty average with scrambled eggs the only hot option and they were cold. Overall, it was a bit disappointing.
