The hotel leaves a mixed impression. Located in the historic center of the city, beautiful and majestic on the outside, it feels tired and aged on the inside. Many things need either updating or replacing (plumbing, beds, modest room decor, no phone, no safe, no kettle, unstable internet, etc.). At the same time, in terms of price-to-quality ratio, one matches the other — room prices are quite reasonable and affordable. Overall, it's a good and convenient place for exploring Lima, its history and landmarks, but not entirely comfortable for staying.

The hotel needs a solid refresh an investment if is is to remain a place where tourists and professionals will choose to stay while in Lima. Not good value for the money. The location is great of course, in the middle of historic Lima, besides that, the wi-fi is not stable/reliable, neither is the hot water in the morning. I would not stay again if I am to come back to Lima.

Lovely common areas and interesting to experience a piece of Peruvian history (lots of famous people have stayed there). Room was large and clean, but needed a major renovation. Staff friendly and helpful. Free drink tickets and a piece of birthday cake for my son. Ten minute walk to main plaza. 15 minutes to monastery and catacombs. Made-to-order breakfast had minimal options and mediocre food. Elevator broke down, so had to carry our heavy suitcases down three flights of stairs.
