Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and very comfortable. The bathroom was large enough. We had some laundry to do on very short notice and they were able to accomodate our request. Overall a nice experience

It is a great hotel but seemed sterile in that there were no decorations or plants at all and few architectural details such as moldings. Although there is a nice courtyard in the center of the three levels. It was a large suite because we had to get a suite in order to get a large bed for the two of us, since no smaller spaces were available. This cost more that any other hotel in Bolivia cost us. It was quite comfortable and the elevator was fantastic and a necessity. The only lack of comfort was that the pillows were too large and hard. Great location but almost impossible to access through the little streets many of which are closed and made into pedestrian walkways. The breakfast was included but was the worst in Bolivia: instant coffee, instant oatmeal, and boxed yogurt, but the very nice waiter made eggs for us. The staff was very nice.

Potosi is wonderful/ beautiful and was the richest city in the world for it´s silver. Beautiful architecture and culture. But it lies more than 4000 meters above sea level with a harsh climate and you need help with tours and car rentals

The mine tour is a must-do.
The mine tour is a must-do. Book it through your hostel, because most Bolivian tour companies can't be bothered to keep the information on their websites up to date. Then spend a half-day walking the hilly, narrow streets admiring the faded grandeur of the city's architecture (both in daytime and lit up after dark), and you will have seen what there is to see in Potosi.

Very important historical city as it supplied enormous amount of silver to the Spanish empire. See the Casa de la Moneda, of course, and the Santa Teresa Convent, both of which have good multilingual tours. The eating options in the city are limited, especially when compared to Sucre.

Interesting place!
Interesting place! We actually didn't do a mining tour as we thought it was a bit voyeuristic but a guy we met did and said it was good. The city itself it beautiful with little winding cobblestone streets, and there were lots of interesting churches, plazas and towers to explore :)

Potosí is an extraordinary place, with a great history, and as the source of European wealth (through the exploitation of the silver mines) a place every European should know.
The historical character of the city and the traditional Bolivian culture are amazing and kept alive in the 21st century. It is easy to move around, walking downwards and taking microbuses to go upwards in the city. Marvellous churches and old colonial institutions like Casa de la Moneda are unique treasures. And it is incredible to think and to feel that in the 16th Century Potosí was one of the biggest cities in the world, bigger than Paris or London.

I rarely write reviews of entire cities but I am taking a few minutes to write this because it's a shame that so many travelers only spend one night in Potosi (or they skip it entirely). I could not do a mine tour due to asthma-related respiratory issues so my perspective is strictly that of a world traveler who enjoys local life & culture, history, architecture, and food. There are plenty of things to do like taking a tour of the Casa de la Moneda, the San Franciscan Convent & Temple (especially the rooftop) and the Convent of Santa Teresa, as well as exploring the central market and just wandering the streets of the old town and interacting with the locals. I stayed for three nights and could easily have stayed longer but have to balance my 30-day stay in Bolivia with all the other cities and places of interest. The only real challenge in Potosi is the high altitude combined with steep streets and horrible air pollution from the local buses.
The rooms are clean, although everything is old and dated. Shower has very hot water and good pressure. Heater in the room is very helpful because it's very cold in Potosi. Wifi is very good. Breakfast was okay with bread, jam, butter, a local pasty, coffee and fruit. Location is very good. On a quiet street a couple of blocks from the main plaza. Let them know your arrival time so someone is there. There's no sign outside so use the Booking address.
-Comfortable bed
-Decent bathroom with very good+warm shower (what a treat after many electric showers☺️)
-Room was comfortable and warm/heated (most important reason why I booked it for the cold nights in Potosi☺️)
-WiFi worked well
-Elevator (very convenient when you just arrived at 4100m)
-Friendly and helpful staff
-Close to the Main Plaza (approx. 5 minutes by foot), restaurants and shops
Excellent place to stay in Potosí. Breakfast in the morning was good, bathrooms were always clean, showers got hot, and the staff were all really amazing. They have coco tea available for guests in the evening which is a nice addition to help with the altitude sickness. The staff were honestly my favourite part :)
The hotel stuff were so helpful and careful in all my staying. The room was nice, clean and very warm, has everything to made the best of comfort.
The bathroom had all day hot water and it was so nice and clean.
The breakfast good enough and yummy.
The parking site, have a lot of space and it's easy to access.
the hotel is located in the heart of the city, every room has a heater, there is hot water in the shower anytime, the breakfast was good, there is a lobby to hang out, and baggage storage after checkout is possible. I didn't like my given room, so I asked for another and it was possible to get a better one.
Fantastic location right near the Central Market. The staff was very helpful in arranging a tour of the mines and answering any questions I had. I was only in Potosí for 1 night but could have happily stayed at Los Faroles longer!
The hotel is located in an old building in the very center of Potosi near markets, tourist attractions, etc. My room was good, with free heating, facing the road but quiet at night. The Internet was very good.
Staff were lovely and very helpful - waited on the street in the rain to help me get a taxi. Room was very quiet - despite s few functions going on at the hotel in their conference rooms. Bed super comfy!
Nice, clean rooms with central heating (it can get very cold in Potosi, so that’s a great benefit). The hotel has lovely, quiet courtyards and breakfast is good. Would return if in Potosi again.
This place was a fantastic location and really great place to stay in Potosi. However what made this place were the kindness and friendliness of the owners! We would 100% stay here again! ☺️
Amazing hotel.
Located in the heart of Potosi. Spotless clean , extremely hel staff!! Really go above and beyond to make us as comfortable as possible!
Great breakfast!!!
Nice colonial style hotel. Comfortable with a great staff that spoke decent English. Also one receptionist got me a private car to Uyuni. It was definitely worth it.
The hotel is very close to the city center. The room is clean and has heating and the bathroom has hot water. Breakfast is fine. The staff is kind and helpful.
