Front desk person spoke English well, breakfast was decent. Air conditioning didn't work in room, two smoke detectors were constantly beeping loudly all day and all night, WiFi frequently disappeared, hot water was rare, toilet didn't flush completely, no remote control for the TV. I'll never stay again.

Laundry service is a bit expensive. Love the old wood paneling in the hotel.

Checkin and checked out within 2 hours. It is that bad. No way should this be even considered 3.5 stars. It is at most a 2. From the insects in the bathroom to the ripped and torn up rug, it was awful. Horrible front desk, he never got off his cell phone while checking us in.

Mediocre hotel

Main cons: Breakfast was unappetizing. Internet was slow. Small room.

Awesome stay in Trujillo-Thank you Hotel Bolivar

Posted 7 May 2018 on Hotels
We had an awesome stay in the Gran Hotel Bolivar. It is a hotel with an antique charme and we loved hanging out a bit in the yard or the lobby premises. Breakfast was very rich and had many options - even Maca powder. The room and bathroom as well was spacious and the bed probably among the best we ever had in a hotel. The staff was as well very helpful and very accommodating to special requests. The passion for this business can be felt in each person and even the owner himself is still very involved and helped us even to get to our terminal in the midst of the night. Location wise the hotel is in the city center perfectly a parallel street away from the big noises, but just a minute walk to it. I dont know other hotels in Trujillo,but we would stay again only in the Gran Bolivar if we were to come back. (Collectivo stops to Huanchaco/Chan Chan are as well right around the corner)

Nice hotel on the edge of the center of town

Posted 30 Dec 2014
We spent two nights in the hotel. The entrance preserves the colonial front of the building, while the rooms are in a modern building. The rooms was clean, the staff friendly, and the included breakfast was large. The rooms was a little warm but there was air conditioning. All in all it was a good stay, fairly priced, in a good location to walk around town.
