In the heart of downtown, La Casona is housed in a converted colonial building
Located in downtown La Paz, La Casona is a charming boutique hotel within walking distance of local markets and shops.
Housed in a 17th-century colonial building, it retains many original features and exudes a quirky atmosphere. The historic mansion's colonial structure has been carefully adapted, preserving its unique character.
Inside, wooden floors, gabled ceilings, brick arches, and brightly painted columns evoke the historic ambience of the building's renovation. The individual rooms, each with different shapes and sizes, are decorated in a minimalist style, featuring box beds, plain walls, and contemporary marble-effect bathrooms. Every room has a private balcony, and the apartments come with fitted kitchenettes and dining areas.
The on-site restaurant, renowned for its Mediterranean dishes, enjoys an excellent reputation in the city. True to the ethos of boutique hotels, the management and staff are dedicated to providing exceptional service.
La Casona's is located close to San Francisco Plaza and the vast indigenous 'Witches Market’. The hotel’s prime location makes it an ideal base for exploring the vibrant city of La Paz.
