Das Eigentum — Hotel Pacheco
Hotel Pacheco is a no-frills three-star set on Roboré’s main square, practical rather than pretty. The lobby is tiled and airy, with a small reception desk, a few armchairs, and a persistent hum from the street-facing fan. It works best for budget travellers and overland operators needing a clean, central base before heading into the Chiquitania dry forest or onto the Santa Cruz train.
Chroniken von Robore
Roboré was founded in 1916 as a railway station on the line connecting Santa Cruz to the Brazilian border. Its growth was tied to the construction of the railway and later to logging and cattle ranching. The town’s architecture is low-rise and utilitarian, with a handful of colonial-era churches and wide, dusty streets. Today it serves mainly as a transit hub for tourists heading to the Jesuit missions or the nearby El Encanto waterfall, and retains a quiet, frontier character.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Hotel Pacheco, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 2nd or 3rd floor facing the inner courtyard. These floors avoid street-level noise and the courtyard side is quieter than the front.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the 1st floor, especially those at the front of the hotel. Street noise from Robore's main road carries directly into ground-floor rooms, and there's no buffer from a lobby or reception area.
Best views
Rooms at the back of the hotel overlook the courtyard or adjoining rooftops. Forward-facing rooms have a view of the main street, but with traffic noise. There's no scenic panorama in Robore.
Quietest floors
2nd and 3rd floors are the quietest due to distance from street and lift traffic. The 4th floor may be affected by roof machinery or water tanks.
🔊 Noise notes
Robore's main road carries local buses, motorbikes, and trucks. The hotel's front entrance is directly on this road. No bar or restaurant noise is mentioned, but expect morning market activity nearby.
Insider tips
If you arrive by car, ask about parking at check-in — street parking is limited and insecure. Request a room on the courtyard side when booking; this is your best bet for sleep quality in a basic 3-star hotel.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Geld & Währung
Get a travel card →Bolivian Boliviano, BOB
Use ATMs for the best rates; avoid the few currency exchange bureaux—they offer poor rates, and the airport gives worse.
Cards work in larger shops and hotels, but cash is king in markets, small shops, and for taxis; contactless is rare.
No hard rule—5-10% in nicer restaurants if service is good; round up taxi fares; hotel staff appreciate small tips (5-10 BOB).
Essen, Einkaufen und Reisen auf einem Budget
Cheap car hire →Breakfast at a local corner café: coffee with milk and a pastry for around 8-10 BOB.
Set lunch menu (menú ejecutivo) including soup, main, and drink for 20-30 BOB.
Simple main like grilled chicken or pasta from a local diner for 25-35 BOB.
Salteñas (empanadas) and anticuchos (grilled skewers) from stalls near the main square or market, about 5-15 BOB each.
Chain stores: Supermercado (like Hipermaxi) and local tiendas for basics; no large supermarket in Robore itself—smaller neighborhood shops.
Local market stalls (feria) sell cheap, basic clothing; for better quality, travel to Santa Cruz.
Minibuses (micros) within town cost 2-3 BOB per ride; from the nearest airport (in Santa Cruz), budget: shared taxi to bus terminal then bus to Robore (approx 80-100 BOB total).
Always carry small bills (10-50 BOB) for taxis and market purchases—don't rely on change. Drink from your own reusable bottle (tap water not safe but you can buy large 5L bottles cheaply in tiendas). Buy snacks at local tiendas instead of tourist-oriented shops.
Where to Eat
💡 Booking tip: For popular restaurants in Robore, book at least a week ahead — especially for weekend evenings and during festival season.
