Guest Reviews
- Peter (8/5): -
- Celine (6/5): Confortable mais très bruyant et sans fenêtre - Le personnel est très accueillant
La douche chaude avec de la pression 1 shampoing et 2 savons
Le lit et les oreillers très confortables
L’emplacement très central
L’eau disponible en bonbonne Le bruit très fort et en continu de la ventilation
Les murs fins comme du papier, j’ai entendu les voisins discuter, regarder la télé et faire l’amour, je n’ai pas pu dormir de 2h à 5h du matin, heure de mon réveil
J’avais l’impression d’être dans la même chambre
Les sur draps étaient taché
Pas de fenêtre dans la chambre, jusque une ouverture sur un conduit de 1m2
Une seule serviette, pas pratique pour mettre une serviette sur ses cheveux et se sécher le corps
- Deeshi (8/5): - Central location, next to the plaza. Good breakfast. Friendly staff. Room is a little stuffy. No view.
- Cristina (7/5): Muy ruidoso pero céntrico - Ubicación muy céntrica, en la misma plaza de armas. El check in no estaba listo a la hora que ponían en la web, no pusieron toallas y tuvimos que pedirlas. Las habitaciones exteriores dan a la calle y las ventanas no cierran bien, por lo que se escucha muchísimo ruido. No hay aire acondicionado, un triste ventilador que hacía muchísimo ruido.
- Monica (10/5): - Ubicación excelente!
Desayuno completo y atención y servicio de Daniel
- Rasa (7/5): Trumpa pažintis su Limos senamiesčiu - Vieta pačiame senamiestyje, paprasti, bet geri karšti pusryčiai į kambarį. Kambaryje karšta, triukšmas iš gatvės ir iš koridoriaus
- Alejandro (5/5): - La ubicación Que no hicieran el cuarto
- roui (8/5): - Très bien situé dans le vieux Lima. Escalier assez raide pour minter aux chambres mais bon hôtel, au calme.
- diaz (10/5): - La comodidad y servicio Nada
- LOPEZ MURILLO (9/5): - El lugar céntrico y tranquilo.
- Sandro (6/5): - TV Chuveiro e da falta de ar condicionado
- Alfaro Barreto (7/5): -
- Fraya (8/5): -
- Ori (10/5): - המיקום הוא סופר מעולה
ארוחת הבוקר הוגשה לחדר
נהג המונית הוזמן בבוקר והגיע בערב בדיוק בזמן המקלחת מעט קטנה ועם מדרגה מוזרה
- wilmar david (10/5): Excelente ubicación muy central , el personal muy amable, habitaciones cómodas y limpias - Muy limpio
- Adriana (9/5): - Excelente el personal y el trato, muy amables y atentos.
El lugar muy limpio y la ubicación es excelente.
- Luz Elena (10/5): - La ubicación es perfecta y el personal super amables y atentos!
- Burgos (2/5): -
- Roger (8/5): -
- Milena (7/5): -
- Elvira (5/5): Todo a pie - La ubicación es INMEJORABLE, en pleno corazón de Lima; lo que también conlleva mucho ruido nocturno, bullicio durante toda la noche. La zona tiene la complicación del ruido nocturno. Durante toda la noche bastantes conflictos en la calle.
- petro (8/5): -
- Francisco (9/5): Fantástica - La Señorita Verónica
Estuvo Muy Atenta y
Con Una Excelente,
Servicio al Cliente
Gracias
- Leanne Teresa (1/5): Disgraceful - Overbooked and turned away despite having a booking for 2 nights. Was abandoned at the door of another hotel at 2am with no apology. This is despite having a confirmed booked with confirmed checked in time agreed. Rude male receptionist who didn’t have a care in the world
- Catherine (3/5): - outdated hotel, very noisy place
- Griselda (10/5): - they made an exception for an extremely late arrival, it was smooth. Beautiful place.
- Guy (8/5): Great location - Perfect location near Central Square, Lima.
Very economical.
Watch for the steep entry stairs.
- orlando (6/5): - Precio... Pague 450 soles por 2 noches y el hotel tenia menos precio por noche hasta 90 soles.. Mas del doble.... Por noche...... No es justo...
- Irek (7/5): Lima city centre. - Fantastic location and very good contact with the service. Helpful and responsive to needs and questions. The place needs to be updated and be more clean. I think the realities of South America may not suit some tourists. Be understanding and enjoy the trip.
- Prakash (3/5): Wouldn’t stay at this location again. - Location is good. Close to many attractions We requested for 2 beds but the room has only single bed. The room was not ready when we arrived. The room was on 3rd floor so need to carry luggage. There is no elevator.
- Amy (6/5): - This place, while a tad bit shabby, is in a great location!
- Tom (8/5): - Very good location
- JOSE (8/5): - Service was excellent.Even though we had to wait for our room to be ready,the service and readiness of the personnel was outstanding.I will come back again for the service.
I had to leave the premises before 7 am and the clerk in charge at that time served me breakfast (breakfast is served from 7:30 to 9 00 am).Tgat mean a lot to me.
Thanks guys from Plaza Mayor. See you on my next trip to Lima
- Massimiliano (7/5): Good -
- Caterina (7/5): Good -
- Cabalo (9/5): Superb -
- Eri (7/5): Great location abd great value for money - Great location right next to Plaza Mayor. Safe to walk around alone at night. Warm and fresh breakfast was delivered to the room at right time. Friendly and helpful owner made my stay comfortable. WiFi did not work in the morning.
- Didier (6/5): Pas cher pour être près du centre - Hôtel dont le seul avantage est d'être au plus près du centre de Lima pour pas cher (confor sommaire, pas de fenêtre, beaucoup d'escalier et pas d'ascenseur). Nous l'avions pris après un bus de nuit pour nous doucher et poser nos valises avant de prendre l'avion le même jour (nous n'y avons même pas dormi). Personnel sympathique et accueillant au demeurant.
- Lauren (6/5): - The location is excellent! Our water wasn’t working and never got hot. The street is extremely loud outside the triple room. Be aware.
- Amaia (5/5): Passable - The views were excellent. The place was very noisy.
- Thomas (6/5): Pleasant -
- Antetoni (8/5): Very good -
- Antetoni (9/5): Superb -
- Qiguang (8/5): Very good -
- Geoffrey (6/5): Pleasant - Location good as close to main Plaza.
Held our bags for free whilst we did 5 day trek. Noisy nightclub next door.
Shower either hot or cold.
WiFi variable.
- Inna (6/5): Good value for your money - The property has very central location, this was great.
During our stay there was a power shortage and there was no power to charge any devices, issues with hot water which of course not the issue from the hotel and we had a discount because of that.
- Becky (8/5): Very good -
- Audie (10/5): Exceptional - The hotel was clean the front desk people they are very professional the room clean and very spacious
Everything close by restaurant, grocery market,
One to lima plaza mayor I will recommend
- Eiji (6/5): - Plaza Mayorに近くて便利
エレベーターがない。
- Daniel (5/5): Passable - good location but communication issue.
i ahve asked to checkin early as i dont stay the whole day, it was confirmed but then when i arrive, she acted like thats was not discussed!
- Lisa (5/5): Quite some flaws to this good located hostal - Central location just around the corner of Plaza Mayor Bad WiFi, rooms with no windows or a small window opening to a ventilation shaft. Found a waterbottle of a previous guest next to the bed. Stains in towel and sheet. I misread that they didn't serve breakfast.
- Khemraj (10/5): Exceptional -
- Steven (8/5): Superb location for exploring numerous historical sites with a few blocks. - Excellent and safe location. Room and bathroom were very clean. Some nighttime noise from the Plaza Mayor filtered into the room.
- Jin (1/5): Bad -
- Nanny (8/5): Very good - Helpful staff
- Monika (10/5): Perfect place to stay. - The owner helped us with everything, he organised a transport to the airport. We could check in early, around 9 am which was very helpful because we had more time to see the city.
- Ivan (6/5): - The property and staff provide a good service
- Alenka (6/5): Pleasant - The great location, very close to the main square. Not very clean room.
- Sil (7/5): Good -
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kevin (10/5): - Nice boutique hotel 3 doors from the best historical square in Peru. Great value, breakfast available locally from 730 am. Don't go to Miraflores, it's not real Lima.
- Irizarry (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jared (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ninggang (8/5): Good place for tourists if you are not looking for a fancy hotel. - Great location, most attractive historical places are within a few minutes walking. Manager is working hard to meet the needs of our request. Before booking, I sent a message to the manager ask if possible to have a airport pickup at midnight. After confirmed, I booked 3 days. We arrived around 1am. Though we did not have the city view room first night as we booked, we have it on the rest of the 2 days. The manager and his wife keep the property very clean. We are very happy with staying here. We stay from Friday to Sunday, the next door music entertainment is lively until midnight. I would be perfect had the windows can block the sound more for an early sleep.
- Alice (7/5): Good - location hard to communicate with staff because they don’t speak English
- Peter (9/5): super lication in heart of historic center, lovely staff - Location and staff. problem with first room and they switched me immediately 👏👏👏 Nothing really!
- Kouf (8/5): Very good -
- Aldrin (9/5): I will recommend very clean, easy access, and close to main attractions - close of everything… N/A
- Nikita (3/5): Find a different hotel - Location. It was overpriced, the floor was very dirty, not fresh sheets, and lots of mold on the ceiling in the room and inside the bathroom. We were in the room facing the street. There was a lot of loud music followed by lots loud street noise pretty much all night. We were exhausted after a long trip and we had ear plugs that helped a little. I would not recommend this hotel, especially for this price.
- Christine (7/5): Very good place in central Lima, simple but excellent service and location. - The staff was extremely helpful and always there to assist us at any time of the day/night. The location is just amazing - just a few meters from Plaza Mayor. There was not elevator but the staff helped a lot with our luggage.
- David (10/5): - Great location
- Jessica (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lizzie (9/5): Superb -
- Nicola (8/5): Friendly staff, great location, a good value budget option in Lima - The staff were very friendly and Cesar was extremely helpful organising a taxi to the airport and providing general advice and help. The location is fantastic, right by the main square and there's shops and cafe's nearby. I arrived late at night from Europe and the shop next door selling water and snacks was open until late which was a blessing. It was pretty cold at night, make sure you have warm night clothes!
- MARIA VIRGINIA (10/5): - Excelente servicio. Gracias Monica!
- henk (10/5): - Close to the centre and very kind staff
- Verified traveler (6/5): Close to the Plaza, Shopping and Food - Outdated and smelly room
- Ricardo (6/5): Hotel for business per hour - I didn't got my room because my flight arrived with delay in the evening and the reception rented my room to a couple in need of privat time.....maybe for a couple of hours only... and I was moved to another hotel far from the square, nice... thank you!
- Linda (6/5): Not fancy but okay for a night or two - Hotel on dark side street Not much to look at but it's a stones throw from main square. Due to late flight we arrived at 4am Nice man let us in to room immediately and we did paper work I am. Room small but clean especially bathroom. Lots of hot water, good pressure . Overall place abit worn
Breakfast average for budget hotel. Compared to price of other hotels in Lima this is good value for price. One tip if you need to leave early in am make sure they know in advance as door street was locked still at 530 when we had to go to catch bus.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The location was great, except that it wasn't: steps from the central plaza of Lima, but the new mayor has decided this area will be pedestrian, so no taxi access; you have to haul your bags a block or two to get to the cab, and traffic to that point was awful.
Housekeeping was mixed; fine the first night, spotty the second, and they failed to show for our last day there.
There was only one English speaker in the hotel, but when he wasn't there, we made do with Google Translate.
Breakfast was simple, but quite good.
- EdwardPm (10/5): - Todo limpio muy recomendable ..!! Muy amable
El personal
- Elina (8/5): - The location is perfect for being in the old town, right by Plaza Mayor and the pedestrian streets where there are loads of shops and cafes. The room had no proper window but was perfectly fine for sleeping, as while in Lima there's lots to see and do. The breakfast was good with freshly squeezed orange juice and warm buns, and good coffee. Nice staff too.
- Johanna (8/5): Great service - It was really central and it was easy to walk everywhere. Really good service, this girl Melissa speaks fluently English and can help you with all your questions. The room had no window and that was the only downside but overall definitely worth a stay. Cheap, clean and only 20sek from the main square. And thumbs up for Melissa!
- Verified traveler (6/5): Impresión - No se cumplieron las expectativas.
- Britt (8/5): - Maypy stairs, but you get help with the luggage 🐹☺
- MILA (2/5): - NO LO RECOMIENDO, REALQUILA LA HABITACION HASTA TU LLEGADA
REALQUILA LA HABITACION A PAREJAS HASTA TU LLEGADA Y TE LA DEJA CON LAS SABANAS USADAS POR LA PAREJA
PEDI HABITACION NO FUMADORES Y ME DIO HABITACION DE FUMADORES QUE APESTABA A TABACO
HABIA PELOS EN LA DUCHA , DABA ASCO
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Booked a stay here through Expedia. Upon arrival late at night after my flight they say they made a mistake and gave my room to someone else. I then had to last minute around midnight go around looking for a new hotel with availability. Get your stuff straight !
- Helmut (10/5): Zentrales Altstadthotel, neu renoviert. - Zentrales Altstadthotel, drei Häuser vom Plaza Mayor entfernt. Eingang etwas schwierig zu finden, Treppenaufgang. Altbau, neu renoviert. Hotel Managerin spricht perfekt Englisch und bemüht sich sehr um die Gäste. Ortsübliches Frühstück. Karten Zahlung problemlos möglich, auf Nachfrage Wäscheservice.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Good service
- Viraj (10/5): Lovely hotel in City centre - The people at the hotel were very helpful and Melissa in particular will make you feel like home
- H (8/5): Blink and you'll miss the entrance - Blink and you will miss the single width doorway which is the entrance to this small hotel just 20 metres from the Plaza de Armas.
Book Rm 301 and if you can stand the traffic noise - if you're present on a festival day - your room's window will give you a great view of the processions which will go by below. Friendly relaxed staff - good breakfast delivered to your room if you want it and the wifi was mostly ok
- Dorte (8/5): Best position. Very helpfull staff - Best position on the corner of the central square, to which we had view from our window. Very friendly and helpfull staff, they helped us to find the right bus for our further journey and they brought the breakfast to our room, which was very nice. If you want to stay in the very middle of Lima, we recommend this hotel.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Disappointing hostel by the Central Square - In the photos, the "hotel" looks nice (yes, in Expedia it shows as a hotel but it is actually a hostel). When you get there you will find an unpleasant surprise. The pillows feel they are filled with newspaper, the sheets look 10-years-old with stains that reflect their long life. Would not recommend this hostel at all. Not even from a price perspective, because it isn't cheap given what you can find on better places of the city for the same price.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Insatisfatório - Em nossa reserva solicitamos um quarto para tres pessoas. Mas nao recebemos o quarto esperado, sendo que nos foi entregue um quarto com apenas uma cama de casal. A minha sogra ficou sem ter onde dormir. Tivemos de solicitar uma cama extra, que foi carregada escada acima por um funcionário (que veio horas depois, por estar almocando) e montada (com um pouco de barulho) no quarto. Tambem tivemos de solicitar um ventilador, pois o quarto nao tinha ar condicionado e nem ventilador. Nao tinha frigobar. Nao tinha senha de wi-fi (pois tivemos de pedir duas vezes). A relacao custo-beneficio nao foi boa.
- Natalya (8/5): Лима город контрастов - Отель расположен практически на центральной площади. Все достопримечательности в шаговой доступности. Персонал очень приветливый. Шустрый интернет. Номер был маленький, но не тесный, чисто, кровати удобные, состояние номеров отличное. Из принадлежностей в ванной только мыло. Фен по запросу. Окно условное)) т.е дневной свет в него виден и все, оно выходит во нутренний колодец , но все пристойно. Завтраки ну очень экономные. При заезде надо отметить что вы будите. Из предоставленного списка и исключить то не чего))) . Но для начала дня достаточно. Лима контрастный город. Одного дня для осмотра больше чем достаточно, у нас осталось ещё время на адоптация к разнице во времени. Такси в аэропорт стоит 75солей, из аэропорта максимум 90, но начинают с 200. Цену сбиваем как дома ))) Еда понятная, рядом полно закусочных 50-70соле на двоих за плотный ужин с вином. Или рестораны на площади 120-160 , сивиче и прочее с писко, на двоих. Местные предупредили , дальше 4х кварталов от площади лучше не ходить, опасно, ну да по дороге из аэропорта все понятно.
- ESTRELLA (8/5): Buena relación calidad-precio - Servicio bueno, habitación acogedora. Excelente ubicación.
- Edith (4/5): Location excellent - If you aren't high maintenance and are looking for a convenient location at a decent price, this is a good bet. Be ready for plenty of traffic noise, honking, and other street noise if you are in one is the outward facing rooms.
We were able to haggle down the price because we were told we had to vacate our room by 8am due to a SNAFU with booking through Expedia (which we are learning is not uncommon in Peru). In the end, we didn't have to check out early after all and were told we could stay til regular check out time.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Basic but in a great location - This is a pretty basic hotel but in a fabulous location right in plaza mayor. The staff were friendly but did not speak English. My room was a bit weird with the window opening on to a hallway - but there was a curtain and a good fan and I slept well
- Xochitl (6/5): - Al llegar me sorprendí porque era un hostal no un hotel, tenía entendido que era 3 estrellas y no fue así, las personas muy amables me todo momento y siempre dispuestos a apoyarte y brindante informacion útil como turista.
- John (8/5): Next to Plaza de Armas - The location, was a good location, but on the weekend, you will have to get used to all the noise from the late night crowd. Also, some rooms may not have Cable television.
