Good location in the center of the touristic area. Nice garden, typical colors. Rooms are ok, clean at least. Breakfast is nice, they change assortment everyday and you can taste local specialties. Good place to start discovering Peru.

I booked this several months ahead from Australia. This was my first international trip. I was picked up by the El Patio at the airport and transported to El Patio. My room was downstairs so I didn't have to carry up my luggage. It was very clean and comfortable and good hot water in the shower. The courtyard was very... More

They met us at the airport and after being in transit for 23 hours, it was fabulous to walk into this quaint, clean, safe 'home'. Hostal El Patio has very friendly, efficient staff and... More

The staff are extremely friendly and accommodating, and the hostel is nestled in a space full of beautiful plants and trees. The rooms are quite basic and the beds fine but a bit of a disappointment after staying in Churup's cozy beds in Huaraz. Generally, however, this hostel was great and well-priced. The best part for me was the staff's... More

Loved the courtyard and the location. We had a room right on the street and it was very noisy, otherwise I would have given it 5 stars. It was a great value.

El Patio is a wonderful little escape from the hustle and bustle of Lima. It has excellent security, a lovely courtyard. and a mazelike labyrinth of stairs and hallways filled with turn of the century paintings and photos. The room was comfortable with TV, big bed. Easy walking distance in a safe area to lots of nice restaurants and bars... More
