Rainbow Hostel has an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a shared lounge and terrace in Lima.

I really enjoyed my stay here! The man at reception was super friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. The pool was great with a good temperature. There are plenty of toilets and bathrooms in the hostel, and they were always clean. The only downside was that the dorms could have been tidier, as there were clothes and empty bottles lying around. But overall, it was a great place to stay!

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The hostel has a lot of character and it's in a great location in Barranco. My room was huge too and was a treat for my last 2 nights in Peru. Good bar area and free walking tours also leave from the hostel. I would definitely recommend. Trying to decide on a hostel in Lima felt like a minefield, but you won't be disappointed staying here. Lots of lovely streets to walk around and cafés etc. Ubers are really cheap to Miraflores too. Reception staff were very helpful.

    Great location, near Kennedy park in very safe and vibrant locatio of miradores. Very nice stuff and two volunteers from Argentina that make free breakfast in the morning 🤗 Rooms are simple but clean and comfortable. Hostel is in a good state, however they are building a new bar downstairs do it can be a bit noisy in the morning. Otherwise definitely recommend! ( Especially when the bar is built haha)

This showed how seriously they take customer service here and ultimately I felt impressed - shower was amazing. Hot and powerful - great location - terrace and communal area were excellent - lovely breakfast. One of the best hostel breakfasts we’ve had

    Mama, who runs the hostel, is really friendly and helpful. breakfast was the best we have had in ages and the hostel is exceptionally clean. the showers aren’t very powerful but the water is hot. wifi was also good. the only downside was the location, it’s safe but quite far from central Lima and other tourist areas however Ubers are cheap and a plus side is the hostel is closer to the airport than other areas.
