Worn furnishings and general feeling of constantly fighting grime and age (vague antiseptic smell). On the good side, plenty of hot water and the internet was fine. Good price for Miraflores but there are much better hotels nearby for not much more money. more

Stayed at the Ariosto for a few days while in Lima. Would not have stayed there by myself. The man at the front desk was not very helpful and a bit indigent - like he could really care less. The other folks were friendly however. Their advertisement for 'to and from' the airport is - from the Airport and then... more

Very nice hotel. Pick up at the airport is very valuable, especially when you arrive late at night. The staff is very friendly , Englosh spoken . Not an advantange in my case because my mother language is Spanish. The rooms are somewhat "antique" but they are comfortable and clean. The restaurant offers very good Peruvian and Internatio- nal food.... more

I stayed at Ariosto for business for 10 days in November. I gotta say I understand the mixed review of the hotel. Some reviewers said the furniture is old, I agree, but it's clean. Most reviewers said great breakfast, and that's very true! I stayed at this hotel for ten days at room 607. it's a suite, it has a... more

My husband and I stayed at the Ariosto twice during our trip to Peru in January 2007. The staff was helpful and the rooms were clean. The rooms were basic (bed, tv, bathroom, closet, ac) but adequate. It is in a great location, walking distance to many shops and resturants. The in-house resturant was good too. Breakfast offered a wide... more

Quite good Peruvian dinners (although there are plenty of... more

Hotel Ariosto (Miraflores): I stay at Hotel Ariosto (Av. La Paz 769 Miraflores, Lima 18-Peru) November 23 & 24. I paid $75 nightly. The accomodations were basic but acceptable. It is extremely clean. It is located in a good area and in a reletevaly quite neiborhood (Lima, in my humble opinion, is quite noisey). Since the $75 rate (which includes... more

The room was fine with a good shower and an unexceptional view of the street. Quite nice area- shops selling antiques and silverware. Reception was adequate. Lounge/dining area a bit dreary-heavy furniture . We were collected at the airport. The high spot was breakfast - with an extremely wide choice of interesting and well-cooked food. more

ROOMS: We got the large room on the 6th floor and it was heaven. Good bed, fridge, windows and very, very clean! The bathrooms were spotless. They buffed all tile floors almost daily. Very clean. FOOD: The breakfast buffet is freshly prepared daily with authentic Peruvian breakfast dishes mixed in with typical American fare. The fresh, peeled fruit is layed... more
