We recently stayed 3 nights at the Diplomat. The hotel is a charming hotel right on Cochabamba's Prado. We happened to have a room with two window views (180 degrees view) so we saw the hill with the Christ figure bathed in sunlight as well as a city vista - waking up to the morning sun was a joy!

I would strongly recommend you to stay at Diplomat Hotel during your visit to Cochabamba Bolivia. I was there last December along with my extended family: 18 people of different ages and backgrounds and the general opinion was that we love this hotel and we would definetly go back for the following reasons: -Confortable rooms with great city views: we...

Very bad the location in terms of noise during the night, the hotel looks old and the furniture is quite ugly and feels dirty, the services offered (room, breakfast, etc.) never for a four stars hotel as they claim or you have to pay. More

This was my 2nd visit to Cochabamba before going back to the US. The company tried to book me again on the 5 star hotel "gran hotel cochabamba" but i refused and decided to take tripadvisor's info and went to this hotel. I was afraid it was going to get a noise bedroom since its located in the main party... More

The Diplomat is supposedly "the" hotel in the city and it´s promising from the outside, but the decor is so... I don´t know, so 30 years ago. Not bad for Bolivian standards, but the hotel could use some work. More

My wife and I were recently married in Cochabamba, Bolivia, the beautiful city where she grew up. We reserved the matrimonial suite at Hotel Diplomat for our wedding night about a week and a half in advance. When we went to make our reservation, the staff took us up to the 12th floor (top residence floor), where we were to... More

Lonely Planet had a glowing review of this super horrid Hotel Monserrat. We moved the next day to this hotel after visiting 2 of the best rated in Tripadvisor, by far this was the best. The Aranjuez is a little far away from the action and we did not visit it. This place is like a dated Days Inn or... More

I stayed at this hotel from March 2nd to March 6th. The hotel is centrally located in the "Prado" area. It is a high rise with 12 floors. My room was on the top floor. It had great city views. Luxury is a stretch when describing this place. The rooms look a bit dated, similar to most average American motels.... More

I've stayed at the Hotel Diplomat on two occasions, the staff is friendly enough, and some rooms have nice views of the city. But the rooms are decorated like a motel 6, and the wireless internet barely works. But you probably won't find anything nicer here. More
