Guest reviews Casa Grande Hotel, La Paz

by pablom452 Mexico City, Mexico

Top notch experience

After a week through the rough desert and salar de Uyuni, arriving at the Casa Grande was definitely a welcome indulgence. The hotel accommodations, rooms, public areas, etc. are 5 stars which lead to a great experience. For instance, the detail of leaving three different types of bed pillows is something you'd expect at the Ritz! My only regret is not having enough time (we stayed for only a night) to dip in the indoor pool that looked enticing... No contest, this is a great option to stay in La Paz, you won't miss home...

Excellent

We stayed here for one night only but had a great room on 7th floor. We ate lunch and dinner in the restaurant and had possibly the best food in over two weeks of travelling in both Peru and Bolivia. There is also a nice café and/or ice cream parlour just outside the front entrance where (being English) enjoyed a good cup of tea! We don't intend to go back to La Paz but would highly recommend this hotel if you are travelling there.

Great Location in Calacoto; convenient for business and family

Staff was most accommodating to us as we arrived at 4am on a flight from the US. Room was comfortable, restaurant has a wonderful breakfast service and Sunday brunch is also excellent. We used the first days of our time in La Paz to acclimate to the altitude, and we enjoyed our time at the hotel. Decor is very modern; impeccably clean. I'd heartily recommend it.

The Best Hotel in La Paz

I will absolutely stay here again and recommend it to others. Pros: Helpful friendly responsive staff, clean modern great looking rooms, a great gym, dry and wet sauna, hot tub, great restaurant, great cafe, good security, and a wonderful swimming pool. Daily water bottles brought to your room. Power outlets that worked with USA devices. Great location. Laundry service. Family friendly. Hotel transportation was excellent. Things to improve on: perhaps some texture or grip on the floor of the room shower, pool and hot tub areas when they get wet it's very slippery and potentially dangerous. The rooms could use wood slow closing toilet seats, the current plastic ones are a bit flimsy and slide around a bit. The hot tub jets do not have messaging power and seem to be only be for show. The dry/wet sauna area needs a water/cup dispenser like in the gym and pool area. Some of my extended family wanted to come up to our two rooms however the hotel has a policy of taking id's from each person and after a certain number they simply didn't allow it (6 people), perhaps they can think of a better way to handle visitors so it's a win/win for guests and hotel security concerns.

Good to excellent

The hotel is in a quiet neighbourhood, about 30 minutes from downtown. The neighbourhood has an exceptionally good restaurant, but little else to recommend itself. He breakfast buffet is good but not excellent. The pool is smal but nice and is a good place to relax and read. Wifi is adequate to good throughout the hotel.
