9.4/10 Exceptional! (697 reviews)
Exceptional. We had messed up our booking dates and the hotel was so accomodating. The staff were just wonderful and we had a lovely breakfast and delicious dinner. We only had one night here as we had just landed in Bolivia. With the altitude change it was tough but the hotwl had oxygen tanks avaialable. We also had a lovley massage in their spa which was great after our long flight.. highly recommend!

One of the better Bolivian markets I've visited, this one spreads out over an entire block in central Sucre. You can buy anything here from chillies to corkscrews to horse's heads! What I love about this place is that you walk into the fruit and veg section and the #market vendors will slice you off a piece of their produce for you to try. If you decide you want to buy, they'll ask you when you plan to eat the avocado/custard apple/mango, so that they can select one at exactly the right level of ripeness for you. Now that's service! There are also mini cafes/restaurants inside where you can get ridiculously cheap sit-down meals and smoothies.

From Grau, it's about a 10-minute walk up a very steep hill to reach Plaza Recoleta, but the views from up here make the short hike completely worthwhile. The Museum of Indigenous Art is up here too, and is definitely one of Sucre's most interesting museums. There's also a cafe
