Hotel Mitru, Tupiza

Hotel Mirtu

Basic but agreeable hotel in the centre of Tupiza with a swimming pool and well-kept garden.

The remote little town of Tupiza is not on the tourist trail, and Hotel Mitru is probably the best option around. One of its most attractive features is a well-proportioned outdoor swimming pool, screened by a rustic adobe wall and adjacent to a neat and pleasant garden.

The décor has a certain quirky Bolivian charm, and the facilities, though simple, make for a reasonably comfortable stay.

What our clients say

  • Bolivia - just stunning.

    PG, Northwood Jan 2010
  • Across the Bolivian border was the long route which involved a four hour journey over a makeshift road with many potholes. However, the scenery was spectacular and I looked on…

    SG, Chigwell Sep 2011
  • Most memorable experience: “So many...Bolivia was outstanding and we are grateful to our JLA travel consultant for her description of this trip.”

    BR, Hornsey Jun 2012
  • Highlight: “Seeing the physical geography of Bolivia and visits especially the silver mine and the mint.” 

    KS Apr 2010
  • Highlights: The trek and Bolivia in general.

    GN, Kingsbridge Jan 2016
  • Bolivia is very spectacular in terms of scenery but both food and hotels leave something to be desired. Not a problem for us but some might find it below expectations.
