Hotel Akapana

Hotel Akapana is a beautiful place to stay while visiting Tiwanaku. A grand hotel located in front of Tiwanaku Archeological Site, this place provides everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owner/manager is warm, friendly, attentive and while a language barrier existed, google translate and big smiles bridge that gap. A wonderful host indeed! The hotel has seen its glory days but still offers comfort, security and a good place to rest. We stayed for 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The rooms are basic but perfectly fine - beds were comfortable & clean. Fresh linen & ample blankets provided for warmth. The bathroom was clean & hygienic - shower had amazing hot water! Wifi worked well. The view from our room was spectacular, looking out over the Tiwanaku ruins. Breakfast was fresh scrambled eggs & bread, marmalade, coffee/tea. Everything is within easy walking distance - ruins, mini marts, museums, restaurants. The town itself is so peaceful, the locals are friendly, the scenery absolutely stunning! If you like a quiet, peaceful authentic experience, i would highly recommend spending a few nights here. The owner organised our transport back to La Paz - private car with a wonderful, safe driver - he took us to see some amazing viewpoints, took photos and was so sweet. Journey was only 2hrs also. My opinion of our time in Tiwanaku at Hotel Akapana is all positive and memorable. A very special stay 💕🙏

Tiwanaku est presqu’un village fantôme, du moins en novembre. Le site de Tiwanaku vaut grandement le déplacement et Don Pedro est un hôte comme on n’en voit que très rarement! Passionné d’histoires et d’objets sacrés dont Tiwanaku déborde, il nous emmène dans sa veille van voir des sites hors circuit, en plus de nous faire à déjeuner, et nous conduire au restaurant, L’Hotel qui nous fait vivre un voyage dans le temps, est spacieux, propre et juste à côté des sites. C’est l’endroit où aller à Tiwanaku!

Perfect location! If you’re looking to explore and experience the culture this is the place!! Owner was exceptional and genuinely kind. Breakfast was cooked at your convenience. Any transportation needed what’s set up by hotel. We had absolutely no stress and free to visit the ruins as many times as we wanted sometimes we were the only ones there perfect experience.
