I recently stayed at the Hotel Regency with friends. We were visiting from America. The staff went beyond the call of duty to ensure our comfort, and they were extremely patient with our limited Spanish speaking skills. The hotel is in a safe area-Miraflores. The free breakfast was table service...complete with some of the best coffee I've had. We were served hot eggs, two kinds of bread, freshly squeezed juice, and coffee. The rooms were spotless and very comfortable. The young man who cleaned our rooms would put American hotels to shame...he cleaned the room, straightened and tidied our loose items in the room, and made the beds to military crispness. There is 24 hour security at the door (as there is at most of the businesses in Lima), The hotel is adjacent to a convenience store and a Dunkin'Donuts. It is only a few blocks from Ovalo Gutierrez, where there is a Wong supermarket, McDonald's. Starbucks, and a big movie theater. Nearby is Pasquale's and Pardo, which offer great Peruvian food. I felt as if I were staying with close family while at the Hotel Regency..
