Frommer's Review

Hotel Plaza has an airy, expansive lobby with colorful modern art. The not-so-bright rooms with dark carpets and aging satiny bedspreads were undergoing renovations at press time, so be sure to ask for a remodeled room. All rooms are spacious and those on the seventh floor and above come with wonderful views of the city and mountains. You can open the windows here, a rarity in high-rise hotels. The marble bathrooms are small but clean, with big mirrors. There's a formal restaurant on the top floor with amazing views, and an informal coffee shop (adjacent to the lobby) that serves an excellent buffet lunch. The Plaza has the best hotel gym in La Paz, but the pool area is not very attractive. Rooms can be cold and the staff could be more helpful. Also hot water could be hotter and more plentiful. All in all, this is a good value if you score a good rate, but if you're paying full price, choose instead Hotel Europa .

Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; small indoor pool; large exercise room; Jacuzzi; sauna; concierge; business center; room service; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; executive floor

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
