Hotel Rosario Lago Titicaca — Hotel in Copacabana

This hotel looks fabulous in the pictures and it is nicely decorated with traditional Bolivian items. Our room was really big and comfortable with two lots of windows looking out over the lake where we watched the beautiful sunsets.|When we were there in late May, the nights were very cold. In the room this wasn’t a problem as there was an electric radiator for us to use and we found this sufficient. We were always warm enough in the bed, which was a lovely large king size.|We had breakfast and evening meals at the hotel, but unfortunately we found the public areas too cold for us because there didn’t appear to be any heating. The meals were enjoyable but we just wanted to eat as quickly as possible and get back to our room. Ideally we would have gone out to eat but our tour company had arranged half board and so this wasn’t an option. |On a positive note the gentleman on reception was very kind and helpful and we got our washing done for $4 a kilo.|You could easily walk everywhere in Copacabana from the hotel as it only takes about an hour and a half to walk around the whole town.

This is probably the best hotel in the town, great staff, a beautiful room, well designed to Western standards and a great view of the lake from the third floor. A glass wall in the bathroom afforded a view of the lake from the shower. They also provided us with an oxygen tank to the room for 180 bob which helped us a lot with the altitude.||What I didn't like was the shower over bath. The shower head was too close to the wall so I found myself with one leg up on the bath rim to try to get my body under the shower properly. Also the water was often not hot in the morning. ||It was explained to me that they couldn't have an elevator because the power supply is unreliable, so if you have trouble with stairs as I do, I suggest you request a first floor room. Although it's a great location near to the lake, there are no cafes, restos or convenience stores close by. A bottle of water is provided on your fist day only. A snack bar at reception would be great.||Despite the negatives I have no hesitation giving this hotel a five...
