Rooms here are all fitted with a private bathroom with free toiletries, a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a minibar with complementary bottled water, an electric heater and hot water with variety of teas and coffee. Some rooms have a sofa. Daily maid service is provided.

We really enjoy a lot our stay at this proprerty. Manuel and his family (the owners and managers of the B&B) made our stay unforgettable: the room was on the upper floor so we always had prime access to the breakfast area, the bed was amazing (I’m sure it is a 5⭐️ hotel mattress), never run out of hot water for shower, and they even pack us our breakfast on the day we needed to be really early at the train station. BONUS: it’s really really close to the San Pedro train station (Perurail) and the San Pedro Market, and just 3 blocks from the Plaza de Armas (sightings and food).

    Stylish, clean and well designed around a circular central stairway. Stunning views eacross the city from the cute little front garden, the windows and balconies of most rooms and from the good sized roof terrace, with chairs and sofas. The staff were happy and keen to help. hot water bottles brought to your room every evening! On-site dining was good and rooms cleaned every day. Reception provides an attractive and comfortable option as somewhere to sit. Tasteful, cool music plays much of the time to add to the relaxed atmosphere.

    This is a beautiful hotel with genuinely welcoming staff. The interior design succeeds in being authentic and quirky and quality - a tough combination and done with real flair. The spa bath is super-noisy, so we only enjoyed it for a minute before deciding to spare other guests (we arrived extremely late). Lovely service, and there's even a huge oxygen cylinder in the dining room. (And there's even a microfibre towel alongside the hair dryer)
