Backpackers Family House Reviews

Really confortable, clean and well located. Just two blocks from the beach and beachside parks. Furthermore attention the staff gives you and the way they treat you makes you want to come back. No doubt! You actually fell cosy and close to the people who work there, which are a perfect example of peruvian sympathy, politeness and vocation for hospitality. You wont regret staying there!!

Really relaxed hostel... quiet but close to everything. The staff are great and Juan does a great free spanish lesson on Tuesday and Thursdays. Would stay again.

Juan Pablo was great! He emailed me before I got there to arrange a taxi from the airport to the hostel. Juan Pablo was very friendly and gave me a map of all the places to go in Miraflores. And Juan gave me a free Spanish lesson! Christian, the owner, was great too! He helped me book a bus ticket to Cusco, gave me a ride in his personal vehicle from one hostel to another, and had lunch with me.

We enjoyed our stay here. The place isn´t the easiest to find (the directions they give could use an update), but once there it´s a dream. Great facilities (kitchen, high speed wi-fi etc), and the place is really clean as well. The staff is awesome, they give you a full run down of everything to do in the city and are really helpful all round. Great breakfast as well. We´d stay here again for sure.

The owner is kind of a pompous a-hole who is not very helpful. The rest of the staff are great.

The hostel is very nice, pickup from the airport comes very handy and the stuff is very helpful.

It was perfect. Quiet. Good people. Thanks!

Great staff. Great guests a fun and quiet place! They do "pisco and sour" night sometimes, it is a fun and amazing way to get to know the peruvian culture:

Had a great time staying at your hostel Christian, we will be back when we return to Lima. Thanks for all the help from you and your staff. Paul

This is hostel is the best one i have stayed in South America! No matter what your up for it will work with this hostel! The Staff are excellent and help with anything and the place is made out just like your own home very chilled out and easy going. Perfect location just a short walk to the ocean and party spots just a short cab ride away! A must in mirraflores!!!!!

Very friendly atmosphere in this Hostel, i also found the staff very helpfull in giving advice on things to do/plaes to eat etc. I enjoyed the laid back vibe in Backpackers Friendly House

Awesome hostel! Really safe, spacious, staff are great fun and are more than happy to help you with anything...have loved staying here and will definitely be back when I return to Lima! Thanks boys!

Thank you all the staff at BFH, they are really friendly they help me to discover Lima as a wonderful city,gave me all the tips and recomendations to look around the city..the hostel is really nice, decoration walls and clean..Highy recommend

I just stayed one night due to time constraints. But Juan did an excellent introduction with all the facilities and map of my surrounding. His explanations of the surrounding area is very helpful. The hostel itself is located a block from the beach. This is a good hostel to relax and enjoy Lima upperclass neighbourhood.

This hostel is amazing. At first, I thought it might not be the best place to meet people, as it is definitely on the small side, but in fact this HELPS meet people, as everyone is more open and friendly and wanting to get to know everyone else. The staff there are incredible. Always offering help for whatever you need - calling taxis, making reservations for you, getting bus tickets - you name it. Totally spotless, and also free breakfast. Amazing. Thanks for making my trip great. - Claire

Me and my friend were the only ones staying in the hostel the day we were there. It was very quiet, what was good because it was what we were looking for at the moment. Staff is very helpful and cool. The place is pretty, has a lot of personality and does´t seem to be a quiet one while busy.There are game boards, table football and nice paintings on the walls. Breakfast was good (with eggs), beds are comfy and bathroom is ensuite. Short walk to supermarket, farmacy and cash mashine.

Great hostel, fun place, perfect location! the staff are very friendly and helpful too! thanks

Fantastic place, in a nice location of Lima - very close to ocean in safe neighborhood. Staff & everyone working there were very friendly, hospitable folk and the hostel itself is really well maintained. Best showers I'd had in all my latin american adventures! Gratis desayuno big plus, huevos, jugo, cafe y pan....great deal :) Would def go back if & when I'm in Lima.
