Guest Reviews

• J (6/5): - The good thing was that it was close to restaurants and some store. The supermarket is only a couple of blocks away. There is a plaza 30 min waking distance full of more restaurants and stores. The bad thing is that restrooms are shared in common area. Unless you get a private room. Area was safe. It was the cheapest hitel i found thsts why i booked it. I would only book again if the price went down.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Hotel muy antiguo - El hotel es muy viejo. Lo usan mucho la gente q va a hacer compras ya que esta en medio de uno de los mercados mas grandes de Lima
• Harry (6/5): - My single with bath at Gran Hotel had very good lighting in the room; the room was cleaned daily; the staff was extremely friendly (but you need to speak Spanish, of course); and the place is quite atmospheric and in a great location. It is 150 years old, and the building needs work, but that is why it is a budget hotel.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - Liked it was closer to airport and plaza Bed sheets and comforter too old, needs replaced. Was too cheap, meant for local customers not foreign tourists.
• jeong (8/5): 위치는좋아요 배낭여행자를 위한 호스텔 - 그냥 배낭자를 위한 호스텔입니다 딱 가격 만큼만 하는곳! 돈낸만큼만 사용한다고 생각하시면 되요
• Sihan (8/5): - la habitación es muy limpia, su dueño es amable la posición es conveniente para el centro, y el barrio chino.
• francois (2/5): À éviter à tout prix - Hotel insalubre. Les chambres sont sales, la salle de bain est faite de bric et de broque. Les fenêtres et volets ne ferment pas. Hotel situé en bord de route, Klaxon et voiture toute la nuit.
• pgregory (6/5): Cheap stay in the historic center of Lima. - Anything but luxurious, yet it has character. I'd take it over posh Miraflores. You have the traditional market instead of the slick mall. Chinatown. Bustle and grit.
• Aleksey (8/5): Колоритный, но старый отель. - Персонал отзывчивый и доброжелательный. Но отель реально старенький и требует обновления. Расположение неплохое - если вы пользуетесь автобусами для передвижения. А до центральной площади Лимы можно пешком дойти. В целом - для непривередливого туриста пойдет. Благо - дешево.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Clean, nice garden, but rudimentary facilities. Very noisy.
• paul (4/5): - Obviously a one star. Made more miserable and damp by the weather but the only good thing going for this place was its proximity to the historical centre. The Grand Hotel is very rustic for sure. I'm trying to be fair. After all I did choose to stay there, but a night was enough. Two nights a mistake. At night you feel very isolated here. Having come from Rio, I was certainly not as impressed with neither the hotel or Lima. Now in Machu Picchu. What a relief!
• Jeonghae (6/5): 싸다. - 저렴한 가격 고풍스런(?)스타일. 주인장이 좀더 호텔을 가꾼다면 좋겠다. 싸고 부담없이 묵기에는 괜찮다고 생각함
• Verified traveler (6/5): Mi estadía. - El hotel es cómodo y la atención muy buena. La ubicación es estratégica para quien vaya de negocios pero, para los turistas es un caos ya que, los trancones que se generan en las horas picos es desesperante tanto que, tomar un taxi es una hazaña ya que ninguno se quiere arriesgar a perder mucho tiempo embotellado en un taco.
• Verified traveler (4/5): - L'hotel est situé dans un quartier un peu dangeureux le soir dans Lima. Pour profiter d'un séjour en toute sécurité le quartier Miraflores est beaucoup plus adéquat!
• Gerald (2/5): Gross! dont bother - Roaches!!!!! lots of them!!! No A/C
• Adrian (6/5): - Wifi waste of time.
• humberto (6/5): Estadía cómoda y económica en el centro de Lima - El hotel tiene su encanto porque es una construcción antigua toda de madera, catalogada como patrimonio de la ciudad de Lima. Sin embargo, afirman que la zona es muy peligrosa, como viajamos dos hombres y pasábamos como paisanos no tuvimos ningún contratiempo. Todo el personal del hotel, sin embargo, fue servicial, amable y dispuesto a ayudarnos en nuestras dudas y necesidades todo el tiempo. La Avenida Abancay es extremadamente comercial, transitada y ruidosa. Si busca un "remanso de paz" no es el lugar para usted, si quiere pagar poco por el alquiler de la habitación, adecuarse a lo antiguo de las instalaciones y explorar todas las maravillas del centro de Lima, ése lugar está muy bien situado. La relación costo-calidad-beneficio es la adecuada. Ahora si quiere pagar poco y tener otro tipo de servicios, se equivoca de lugar.
• Emma (6/5): Nice enough hostel but dangerous area - The hostel itself was fine for backpacking, although not many travellers from outside of South America stay there. The hotel was in a bad area to be at night and didn't really feel safe to explore from after dark. For a feeling of safety, I would recommend staying in Miraflores
• Alfredo (8/5): Gran hotel. Mas que un practico hotel del centro. - El hotel es perfecto para estar algunos dias en Lima puesto que esta a 5 minutos del centro historico. Fueron muy amables tanto el servicio de recepcion como el de habitaciones. Me dieron informacion practica para aprovechar bien mi tiempo. Un ambiente calido y familiar. Los baños son limpios y sencillos separados por sexos. Te sirven un desayuno basico de cortesia.. Siendo economico la relacion precio/calidad es alta. Y claro para el que valore el estilo colonial es de disfrutalo tambien. Lo recomiendo al 100%r
• Verified traveler (2/5): - I checked in and immediately decided not to stay. The building is very old with gaps in the walls and ceiling. The doors/locks don't seem very secure. Everything is very loud from the traffic outside. The room smells like gasoline fumes. I paid for the first night as I made the reservation but did not stay any longer. Staff was nice from the brief amount I talked to them.
• Not Provided (2/5): grosse deception - avons eu la chambre apres 13h le tarif indiqué sur le site 26euros payé a l arrivée 37,80 c est vraiment un hotel pour 1 nuit tres vieillot presqu a l abandon dommage ancien batiment bien renove et entretenu correctement aurait tout son charme bien situe en centre ville proche des zones pietonnes et commerce c est une grande surprise quand on arrive de se dire ou je suis?
• hideo (6/5): 歩いて散策できる - 街の中心に近く、歩いて散策できるが、大通りに面しており車の音がうるさい。
• Marc (4/5): Couldn't sleep - drivers honked all night - Was just staying here for one night after completing hiking the Inca Trail and getting back from Cusco before heading back to the States the next morning. My group had almost a full day in Lima before we left the next morning, so we decided to pick a location closer to the center of Lima. The didn't feel entirely roomy, but we didn't care to much since it was only for one night. If you want to sleep at night, DO NOT STAY HERE. This hotel is located off of a major road, and between the thin walls and the Peruvian drivers who honk their horns nonstop, it was not the most relaxing sleep. We had to wake up very early (~2:45 am) to catch a very early morning flight back to the states, and paid 40 soles (~12.5-13.5 USD) for to get to the airport. If it wasn't because of the location of the hotel, I would recommend this place.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Suited purpose fine. - Basic friendly hostel, convenient to central Lima.
• Verified traveler (4/5): Could have been a good surprise! - If you really to stay downtown or for 1 night otherwise chose miraflores area. Nevertheless good location close to the old town and governement buildings. Unfortunately very noisy due to the busy avenue it is located on. The picture are nicer than the reality there. Bed and pillow are uncomfortable. Although they mention airport transfer they dont do this and list you warnings while taking à taxi, which did happen to me !!!!!
• Verified traveler (8/5): Great value. - Hotel was in Central Lima where there are supermarkets, stores, restaurants, and basic services. I was not expecting much for the price but was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the internet and the hot shower...
• Verified traveler (6/5): Billig og sentrumsnært - Valgte billig overnatting på veg nordover i Peru. Bodde her en natt. Veldig hyggelig betjening i gamle og sjarmerende lokaler i ekte kolonistil. Mye potensiale, men god valuta for pengene
• Georgi (4/5): - Very cheap place in an old building in Lima Centro. Everything is old and not in great shape, but it is fine for the price. Located on the border between the historic center and Chinatown very close to Plaza de Armas and most central sights. One disadvantage is that the hotel is right on Av. Abancay, which is a big street with heavy traffic and it is pretty loud. The staff was very helpful and accommodating.
• Izabela (6/5): Oangagerad känsla - skrivmaskinen skrev inte, kortmaskinen tog inte kort. Två saker som jag tycker ska fungera i den del av stan. Trevlig personal och ren rum. Duschen var dock inget kul. Vacker byggnad men jag hade inget fönster på rummet.Trafiken hörs
• Jorant (4/5): Hotel terrible y viejo. - Es un hotel muy viejo y en mal estado. Las fotos que ponen no corresponden a la realidad. El baño de la habitación en un estado terrible y se ve mas bien sucio.
• YING-HUNG (8/5): - People here are so friendly and they always help me per my request, will stay here again when I visit Loma next time!
• Adolfo Alexis (10/5): Excelente! - Excelente Hotel se preocupo por cada cosa que necesitaba incluso escolta al taxi :) muy recomendado
• Chris (6/5): Great Value, Good Location - This hotel is in a great location for exploring historic Lima. You are right on the edge of some pedestrian avenues which felt safe for walking fairly late. I got exactly what I needed here - private room and bath for a minimal charge. It was the least expensive hotel I could find that was close the historic core. Best of all is that this place is really funky. Another review mentioned that it was like a Salvador Dali painting. I've got to agree with that. All the doors are way over scaled and there are so many bizarre color combinations throughout. I counted eight different colors in my room. I loved how unapologetically quirky it all is. Overall, my room was clean, my shower was warm, and my experience with the staff was great. All that said, realize that you will be staying in a very old place that is fairly worn, but not worn out.
• Verified traveler (10/5): back in time stay - very magic atmosphere. I loved staying there. It was like moving 100 years back. Very helpful and friendly staff.
• W.C. Canada (6/5): Good economy hotel close to historic district - Had staff on late which wa great because we flew in at midnight. Our room was large with private facilities. But shared facilities would have been fine as well as everything is clean. Wifi worked. Hot water sometimes. Would recommend.
• Verified traveler (10/5): séjour agréable à lima - Avons passé 3 nuits au granhotel qui est très bien situé dans le quartier de rimac le centre historique de lima. Le personnel est accueillant et aimable,nous a donné 1 plan du quartier des notre arrivée. Nous allons d ailleurs y séjourner avant notre depart.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Excellent choice for the price - Pleasant hotel, great location, super-helpful staff, clean beds, quiet room. We were very satisfied.
• Verified traveler (2/5): Falsas imágenes y servicios - ..No es ni parecida a las imágenes que nuestran. El servicio es nulo y las sabanas estaban sucias, no hay servicio de wifi .. La zona de ubicación pesima para la llegada de una familia..
• Colin (8/5): Lima - I liked it.
• Marion (6/5): Gran Hotel - Lima - Endroit super bruyant sur une grande artère de la capitale péruvienne.
• Verified traveler (4/5): Gran hotel - El lugar tenia olor a polvo y humedad y nos advirtieron que esa zona es peligrosa pero aunque sali a caminar en la noche no nos pasó nada malo. Nos cobraron porque se quedó una persona más en la habitación pero no nos ofrecieron una cama más y el persona fue un poco apático.
• Bruno (2/5): Accueillant mais vieillot - Personnel accueillant, parlant anglais, 24/24. Hotel sécurisé la nuit avec grille et gardien. Paiement en fin de séjour. Le style de l'hôtel est super sympa (colonial) ; en revanche, le standard de l'hôtel et de la chambre est très faible, avec du mobilier obsolète, des peintures défraichies, une moquette hors d'âge, une salle de bain "bicolée" communicant avec la chambre du dessus par un trou au plafond,...
• Verified traveler (8/5): 편안한 침대와 페루스타일 침구 - 역사가 오래된 건물이지만 아늑한 잠자리를 제공해주었다.
• Verified traveler (6/5): hôtel bien situé et accueillant - belle résidence de type colonial,simple et spacieuse
• chris (6/5): You see the price now set your expectations - My expectations were low, so the hotel was ok in that respect. The big problem is that if you find yourself in Miraslobes, the upscale area, you will not be able to find a cab back to the area of the hotel, even at 5pm which was the time I started looking for one. Everyone had me convinced that I was going to be robbed, so it was unsettling. However, nothing happened but it was quite an ordeal getting back to the hotel.
• Verified traveler (2/5): Not impressed. - Gran Hotel in Central Lima had one positive factor. The location is near the Plaza de Armas in central Lima. However, the hotel had several cons which would not warrant a revisit. First, the hotel did not feel safe nor did I feel my things were safe in the hotel room. Second, the staff's friendliness and helpfulness depended on who was working at the front desk. Third, taxis to the airport through the hotel charged more than taxis from the airport. Finally, the hotel claimed to be renovating the hotel so it asked for reviewers to be kind in reviews except there did not appear to be any ACTUAL attempt to actually renovate the hotel in order to enhance the aesthetics or service. The hotel is best for those looking for a cheaper hotel option.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - Its terrible, I was so cold at night and cant sleep all night because they did not provide enough blanket and the weather is so cold, and the worst thing is the hot water heater is not working properly so I had to take a shower in the very cold night without hot water.
• Verified traveler (8/5): beautiful hostel - was here for 1 night. such a rustic and beautiful building. receptionist spoke great english. couldnt lock door so we just put a bed in front of it and slept on it keeping door closed!
• Vladimir (6/5): Basic hostel for a good price... - Very basic hostel in a beautiful old building. Great location, nice staff...
• hello (10/5): Old charming hotel with Spanish style central cour - Old charming hotel with Spanish style central courtyard in great location, the staff is super friendly. Yes, it is shared bathrooms, the location is great, the charm of the building is outstanding. (A bit of Lima centro advice: I recommend visiting the city in the early morning hours (when the thieves are sleeping rather than late at night.)
