Top Lima Historic Center Hotel Reviews

Sheraton Lima Historic Center

10/10 Excellent

"It was a great experience!"

Wyndham Costa Del Sol Lima Airport

8/10 Good

"Great option for overnight layover in Lima, The hotel has a free airport shuttle with a dedicated kiosk right outside the baggage claim are Door 3. The shuttle frequency was very convenient every 30 mins but we always had a shuttle available. The hotel is very clean but shows its age as the hallways and rooms are reminiscent of the 1980 construction. The hotel is in a busy neighborhood but the noise was not intrusive in the rooms. It is atleast 45 mins to an hour away from popular places like Mira flores and Barranco depending on the traffic but were able to hail a cab and UBER relatively quick. The hotel offers a free beverage or Pisco sour at check in. The breakfast buffet was at best OK, the furniture and decor was a little dated and the food options were many but not very flavorful or service was timid. They ran out off salt or napkins at 8:00 am had to wait 15 mins to get some replenished. The check in staff and the concierge were very professional and helpful."

Sleepover - Lima Airport, the only in-terminal sleep pods

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient location on the second floor of the Lima Airport. We stayed here to get some rest between a 22:30 international arrival and a 09:30 domestic departure the next morning. It is on the public side of security, so not as convenient for international transfers, but perfect for domestic transfers like ours where you need to enter the public area to make your transfer. The staff was very present and helpful. The rooms and facilities seem very new and well-maintained. Showers are not included, though facilities are available at additional cost. Rooms are not the most soundproof, but earplugs were provided. Coffee and softdrinks were also available free-of-charge. Know that rooms are booked in 8-hour blocks that you have to make sure line up with your arrival time, plus customs and immigration."
