Stayed here a few years ago and had a good time. Great restaurant in the hotel and walking distance to others and shops.

I have stayed at this hotel now twice for business and both times my experience was very good. My single room was comfortable, if somewhat on the small side, but suited my needs just fine since I was only there in the evenings. The hotel arranged pick-up from the airport and hung out even though my flight was more than 2 hours late. In addition, when my luggage didn't arrive, they provided me with a free toothbrush, etc. The breakfast is good and has a nice variety and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The only downside would be that wireless is only available in the lobby and restaurant but the LAN cable internet is free in the rooms. Overall, I would definitely return to this hotel.

Have stayed in many hotels in Lima, and this one by far wins the day. You are steps from beautiful parks, residential neighborhoods, and great shopping and restaurants. The restaurant/bar in the hotel serves food until 1am and, unlike most hotel restaurants, the food is actually really good and reasonably priced. But what really stands out here is the service. From the front desk staff to the doorman to the breakfast servers to the bartenders, everyone here treated us exceptionally. Our check-in/check-out/re-check in plans for the week fluctuated almost daily but the front desk staff always seemed to be cheerfully one step ahead of us with a smile and "don't worry" being their go-to answer. Highly recommended!

Stayed at this hotel in Dec 2007 for about 5 days with a group of students as part of a school course to learn about the culture and economy of Peru. We had 2 people to a room and it was spacious enough for two strangers to not bump into each other alot. It's not overly fancy but I mean we're students and how much do u really need but a clean bed and warm water :) They cater well to business travellers, we kind of fell in that category. There was a exercise room-think that was closed for renovations but lovely parks outside for running. Some of us-the not so lazy ones went running each morning. Internet addicts like myself stuck in the business center on the 10th floor checking in with friends and family back home! The breakfast is good enough, great variety and there is alsoa restuarant. Never ate downstairs in the restuarant but order in my lastnight and the food was great. I think i'll post a picture of that. Best meal i had during the whole week in Peru! The waiter and staff in general were very accomodating for the most part and spoke English. The bartender was great, he made me this fruity drink that was wonderful. We were able to exchange money right there at the hotel. It's close to supermarkets and taxi right outside the hotel. The neighbourhood is also great, it's not too busy there. In the morning you'll see children going off to school and people off to work during breakfast. Kidn of a upscale neighbourhood actually, diplomats and such live aroudn the corner. One afternoon i spotted a woman walkign her dog and it was clothed! Surely didn't expect that in Peru-so in other words upscale neighbourhood as i said above. Ok i'm going off, so yes if i were to visit Lima again i'd probably stay right at the Roosevelt just for the quite feel, cost and proximity. Oh for those concerned about safety, there is a safe and we locked stuff like passports up but you know how it is some of us left stuff around and nothing ever went missing. Oh and the room/bathroom is cleaned daily.
