Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The good thing was that it was close to restaurants and some store. The supermarket is only a couple of blocks away. There is a plaza 30 min waking distance full of more restaurants and stores. The bad thing is that restrooms are shared in common area. Unless you get a private room. Area was safe. It was the cheapest hitel i found thsts why i booked it. I would only book again if the price went down.

My single with bath at Gran Hotel had very good lighting in the room; the room was cleaned daily; the staff was extremely friendly (but you need to speak Spanish, of course); and the place is quite atmospheric and in a great location. It is 150 years old, and the building needs work, but that is why it is a budget hotel.

Cheap stay in the historic center of Lima.

Anything but luxurious, yet it has character. I'd take it over posh Miraflores. You have the traditional market instead of the slick mall. Chinatown. Bustle and grit.

Колоритный, но старый отель.

Персонал отзывчивый и доброжелательный. Но отель реально старенький и требует обновления. Расположение неплохое - если вы пользуетесь автобусами для передвижения. А до центральной площади Лимы можно пешком дойти. В целом - для непривередливого туриста пойдет. Благо - дешево.

Obviously a one star. Made more miserable and damp by the weather but the only good thing going for this place was its proximity to the historical centre. The Grand Hotel is very rustic for sure. I'm trying to be fair. After all I did choose to stay there, but a night was enough. Two nights a mistake. At night you feel very isolated here. Having come from Rio, I was certainly not as impressed with neither the hotel or Lima. Now in Machu Picchu. What a relief!

Mi estadía.

El hotel es cómodo y la atención muy buena. La ubicación es estratégica para quien vaya de negocios pero, para los turistas es un caos ya que, los trancones que se generan en las horas picos es desesperante tanto que, tomar un taxi es una hazaña ya que ninguno se quiere arriesgar a perder mucho tiempo embotellado en un taco.

Estadía cómoda y económica en el centro de Lima

El hotel tiene su encanto porque es una construcción antigua toda de madera, catalogada como patrimonio de la ciudad de Lima. Sin embargo, afirman que la zona es muy peligrosa, como viajamos dos hombres y pasábamos como paisanos no tuvimos ningún contratiempo. Todo el personal del hotel, sin embargo, fue servicial, amable y dispuesto a ayudarnos en nuestras dudas y necesidades todo el tiempo. La Avenida Abancay es extremadamente comercial, transitada y ruidosa. Si busca un "remanso de paz" no es el lugar para usted, si quiere pagar poco por el alquiler de la habitación, adecuarse a lo antiguo de las instalaciones y explorar todas las maravillas del centro de Lima, ése lugar está muy bien situado. La relación costo-calidad-beneficio es la adecuada. Ahora si quiere pagar poco y tener otro tipo de servicios, se equivoca de lugar.

Nice enough hostel but dangerous area

The hostel itself was fine for backpacking, although not many travellers from outside of South America stay there. The hotel was in a bad area to be at night and didn't really feel safe to explore from after dark. For a feeling of safety, I would recommend staying in Miraflores

Gran hotel. Mas que un practico hotel del centro.

El hotel es perfecto para estar algunos dias en Lima puesto que esta a 5 minutos del centro historico. Fueron muy amables tanto el servicio de recepcion como el de habitaciones. Me dieron informacion practica para aprovechar bien mi tiempo. Un ambiente calido y familiar. Los baños son limpios y sencillos separados por sexos. Te sirven un desayuno basico de cortesia.. Siendo economico la relacion precio/calidad es alta. Y claro para el que valore el estilo colonial es de disfrutalo tambien. Lo recomiendo al 100%r

I checked in and immediately decided not to stay. The building is very old with gaps in the walls and ceiling. The doors/locks don't seem very secure. Everything is very loud from the traffic outside. The room smells like gasoline fumes. I paid for the first night as I made the reservation but did not stay any longer. Staff was nice from the brief amount I talked to them.

hôtel 1900

Une grande maison centenaire qui est devenue un hôtel il y a 60 ans. Par chance, notre chambre était éloignée du boulevard, très bruyant, y compris la nuit. Malgré la vétusté du lieu, le lit était confortable et la douche chaude. En revanche pour le petit déjeuner, il vaut mieux aller dehors. Mais le lieu, tenu par des gens très accueillants, dégage un charme propre à séduire les voyageurs en quête d'authenticité.

Couldn't sleep - drivers honked all night

Was just staying here for one night after completing hiking the Inca Trail and getting back from Cusco before heading back to the States the next morning. My group had almost a full day in Lima before we left the next morning, so we decided to pick a location closer to the center of Lima. The didn't feel entirely roomy, but we didn't care to much since it was only for one night. If you want to sleep at night, DO NOT STAY HERE. This hotel is located off of a major road, and between the thin walls and the Peruvian drivers who honk their horns nonstop, it was not the most relaxing sleep. We had to wake up very early (~2:45 am) to catch a very early morning flight back to the states, and paid 40 soles (~12.5-13.5 USD) for to get to the airport. If it wasn't because of the location of the hotel, I would recommend this place.
