It’s important to understand this hotel is far beyond its best days. I am sure then it was absolutely majestic, but now it’s just really lacking luster and glamour. Being across from the square will seriously disrupt any sleep you plan to get. The window was broken in our room to accommodate a portable ac.

It’s a pretty old but beautiful hotel, but there are some downsides…. The streets outside are pretty noisy, but maybe it was because we had the room adjacent to the street. We had four people and ran out of hot water for showering at the end, but might be because of rush evening hour for water hmusage. The breakfast was good though, and it’s a 10-minute walk from Plaza de Armas.

Hotel Gran Boliver sits majestically adjacent to San Martin Plaza in the centro historic zone of Lima, walking distance to shops, museums and galleries. This renovated property features gorgeous rooms, immaculate linens, spacious suites with living & dining rooms with small refrigerator. Breakfast is a fixed menu omlette with ham and cheese plus fresh squeezed juice & warm croissants. Dinner menu in the formal dining room boasts a variety, well priced. Front desk & staff provide exceptional service.

This hotel makes much ado about its glorious past. Unfortunately, it's stuck there. The property is not quaint, it's shabby. The hallways of the floors are long, dark and outright creepy. The rooms have not been touched in at least 50 years. Maybe 75. It clearly used to be a grand hotel. It's not anymore. The fact that it's in a dodgy part of town and across from the park where protests are held does not help the ambiance. Avoid.

The location is perfect. The hotel is just a bit run down but has tremendous character. Tourists come in to take photos of the lobby! The rooms lack proper air conditioning but have fans. Would recommend it!

Staff courteous and nice Old historic building falling in disrepair. Rug old weary, not clean. Smell old building which it can be fixed easily with so many new odor dispersing tech. Room 334 bathroom broken faucets, old “ baby toilet”, rusty areas, dirty curtain shower, windows broken to open and close, Dirty walls and doors, lack of clean and painting. Stayed Saturday night and the outside party was loud inside our rooms until 7 am. Not exaggerating. So sad this magnificent building is falling apart inside due to lack of repair and painting.

This is an old hotel. I would urge the hotel to put an electrical outlet in the bathroom if possible and to put outlets near the bedside tables for people who use cpap machines if possible. Otherwise we had a pleasant stay and loved the elegant antique furnishings.

This hotel is full of history! Many celebrities have stayed here, and the antique decor makes you feel like you’ve traveled back in time. The food was delicious, and they even prepared a to-go breakfast for us when we left at 4 AM—it was amazing! If you want to experience the charm of old Peru, this is the perfect place to stay.

A time capsule from the 1920s

Absolutely amazing hotel with so much history. If you prefer the beauty of bygone eras over modernity this is the hotel for you. Splurge and get the junior suite. It's basically an entire apartment with gorgeous inlaid hardwood floors, 15 ft ceilings a balcony and many period features.

This place is amazing, what a beautiful hotel in the heart of Lima I would definitely recommend this place and will come back. The staff was wonderful, I arrived seven hours before check in and my plan was to leave my luggage in the front office closet and come back to check in but they were able to check me in seven hours prior at no extra cost. They definitely left a good impression and will definitely come back here when I'm in Lima.
