Looking for a hostel to party? Then this is your place. Located in the heart of the city, minutes away from Prado (main street in La Paz), Loki Hostel is the perfect combination of fiesta and siesta. Secured entrance and English-speaking staff gives them additional points, but don’t rely on the airport pickup service they offer!

Having reached La Paz airport at 5:30am, we had setup the hostel for a pick up for 70 Bs (~$10). No one showed up at the airport with our name tags and no one answered the phone call!

The hostel has a reception lobby at the ground level, rooms on first and second level and a huge bar/dining area on the first level. This is where they play loud, blaring music until wee-hours in the morning. The second level has posters at every corner saying “Shh after 10pm”, but who is enforcing that? No one!

Rooms are good sized, with no bathrooms attached. Each floor has about 4-5 common bathrooms for use, that has hot showers. Beds are comfortable and the hostel serves free breakfast. Although mentioned on their website that towels are included in the rooms, they are not!
