國際飯店

It seems to be rather a long time since this place was reviewed in TA. But its definitiely still open, and is in fact a pretty decent place to stay. It's located on a main road in Cochabamba, only a few blocks from the centre of the action (14th Sept Squ. etc). In the daytime, the surroundings are pretty noisy, and I could hear most of the din from my room even though it faced a courtyard at the back, but at night there was not a problem. My room was a single. The room was not carpeted, but had hard floors. All was scrupulously clean. But the bed was comfortable. There was no in-room safety deposit box. There was no A/C, but the cool nights of Cochabamba meant that this was not a problem. There was a balcony. There was no outdoor furniture but the chair could easily be moved out there in the evening so that it could be used. The public areas of the hotel are classy-looking and have seating areas. The hotel restaurant was closed down, but breakfast, which was included in the price I paid, was brought to the room. The staff were very helpful and indeed jovial. I was able to check in straight away (by prior arrangement) when I arrived in the morning, at no extra charge. This hotel offers most of the things you need at a keen price. I would recommend this place.
