Parador Santa Maria La Real

Sucre has been attracting more attention recently as a destination for travellers to Bolivia for its temperate climate and pretty, colonial-era architecture. Steeped in history and culture, the city centre was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the 90s and many of the patrimonial buildings have been preserved or restored since. Parador Santa Maria La Real sits within a beautiful example of colonial-era architecture in Sucre; the 18th-century mansion has been lovingly restored and boasts a roof terrace, a cavernous underground dining room and beautifully appointed rooms, some with a balcony overlooking the internal courtyard. Staying here feels like stepping back in time to 18th-century Sucre; guests love the opulent suites, from the plush bedspreads in rich, regal colours to the dark wood antiques and luxurious Persian rugs. Book a high-end suite for extra living space and a bathtub. Don't miss the views from the chic hotel roof terrace; relax with a drink or in the hot tub before booking a treatment from the on-site spa. A stylish city break.
