    Quaint Miraflores - a lucky find!
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Superior Family Room
    • Stayed 4 nights

    The hotel was very particular before our arrival about having the exact number of people in the right rooms (we had 3 rooms and 8 people); so I accommodated by canceling and remaking reservations. Upon arrival, they actually gave us (and charged us) 2 of the wrong rooms. Didn't quite realize it until after having paid, and they were not very accommodating in refunding Otherwise the staff was quite nice and helpful!!! And I would ABSOLUTELY stay here again.

    Great boutique style hotel in the most quaint part of Miraflores. Water filling stations, clean rooms, safe neighborhoods with great restaurants. Good breakfast.

    This was the first hotel we stayed in that the room was very big. It had heat & air conditioning. The breakfast was plentiful & delicious. Staff very helpful. Updated and modern. Very pretty courtyard. They had a water filtration system. Great price for what you get.

    The breakfast could have been a little bit more varied and the food a little bit warmer. There is really nothing else I'd have to say I didn't like

    The staff is very friendly and very helpful. The location was great to be able to get around down to the ocean to nearby towns to shopping but yet it was very quiet. For a Solo traveler the room was big enough everything was complete in the room they even brought me a refrigerator so that I could keep things cold it had heat when I needed it and I was very satisfied with the overall expectations of my room

    Our room was facing inner courtyard, thus not much of breeze coming in. The room smelled of mold. Also, very early in the morning we were woken up by sounds & smells coming from kitchen that was downstairs.

    The staff was acommodating for our early check in request, and overall, it's a good place in a peaceful area of Miraflores. Everything was clean, there's an elevator.

    Good, cute garden
    • Leisure trip

    Surprisingly noisy in the morning--road works. My room was next to the elevator which is a very noisy device. Staff were polite but not friendly and only moderately helpful. One example, I was leaving early one morning and had arranged to have my breakfast packed; they did not. There were no vegan/vegetarian options on the menu (but the Chef did make something to fit my needs).

    The garden (the reason I booked this location) was super cute. Location is good--tranquil neighbourhood, walking distance (if you want) to Kennedy Park, Huaca Pucllana, and meeting sites for tours. Lots of options for breakfast. I like that they encourage guests to reuse their towels.

    Extremely complicated to figure out how to use the AC or Heater, apparently the 6th floor system is controlled by the 5th floor room so they had to bring a portable heater for me. They say they are working on making system unique to each room. Apparently breakfast bar is not what it used to be 2 years ago, not much of a selection.

    Had dinner at the restaurant, no staff in site. Was a terrible customer service experience Changed rooms 3 times as the initial room was so cramped, with 2 beds when I booked a queen. The second room was behind reception and you could hear everything The third room was okay but right next to the lift and very noisy. Just an overall negative experience.

    Breakfast was lacking.
