INN
La Casa Nostra $$
( 241-1718;
www.lacasanostraperu.com
; Grimaldo del Solar 265; s/d/tr incl breakfast
S110/140/180; )
All the charm of this Spanish-style
casona
goes into the shared
spaces, including a vintage wood-beamed ceiling in the lobby. By contrast, the seven
rooms are clean but not very interesting, with mattresses that are a bit flat and narrow
single beds.
Hotel Esperanza $$
( 444-2411;
www.hotelesperanza.com.pe
; Esperanza 350; s/d/tr incl breakfast S119/
146/186; )
A friendly spot. Baroque-style furniture and satin bedspreads provide an
unusual juxtaposition to the somewhat monastic 39 brick rooms. Advantages: it is clean,
functional and has a central location.
HOTEL
Hostal El Patio $$
( 444-2107;
www.hostalelpatio.net
; Diez Canseco 341A; s/d incl breakfast S126/156,
s/d superior S156/186; )
On a quiet side street just steps from the Parque Kennedy,
this gem of a guesthouse is named for its plant-filled courtyard with a trickling fountain.
With a cheery English- and French-speaking owner, it features small, spotless rooms with
cast-iron beds and colonial-style art. A few are equipped with small kitchenettes and mini-
fridges. Check the website for special offers.
GUESTHOUSE
Hotel Alemán $$
( 445-6999;
www.hotelaleman.com.pe
; Av Arequipa 4704; s/d/tr incl breakfast S143/
169/195; )
A rowdy boulevard gives way to this surprisingly charming 23-room
hotel built around a Spanish
casona
. Simple, stuccoed rooms are decorated with Peruvian
textiles and colonial-style furnishings and cable TV, telephones, desks and minifridges.
Credit cards accepted.
