Pirwa Hostal Backpackers Lima Reviews

Great place, perfectly clean, fresh and friendly and a very short walk to the life of Miraflores. Great if you're looking for a very comfortable good nights sleep, probably not for the party types.....

Good location in Miraflores, staff are very nice and helpful.

I stayed for one night only while passing throught Lima. I admit the location was great, with a great restaurant a few blocks away and shopping areas nearby. I hardly slept due to the water leaking in the shower all night and I got bitten by bugs in the bed (stayed in a single with private bathroom). Did not like this hostel at all.

Definitely not a party hostel. Comfortable, clean and staff exceptionally friendly. Difficult to meet other travelers, we were there on the weekend and hardly saw anyone.

I really enjoyed my stay here (10days). The Staff is nice and helpful. The beds are big and comfortable. Good breakfast. Great hostel!

Great hostel in a great location. The rooms are nice and clean. The staff is very friendly and there are plenty of places to hang out. The rooftop patio was my personal favourite.

I arrived 2 hours later than i tought but the staff was still there for me the first night,they help me with my bus ticket. AT PIRWA THEY GOT A VERY FRIENDLY ATMOSPHERE AND THEY DO EVRYTHING TO HELP YOU.On my way back i will stay here again knowing that i will be able to relax and feel secure before my departure for canada

The hotel felt very secure, there was a bell to get in from the street and our ground floor room had grates over the windows. The lady at reception was helpful, welcoming and spoke good English. They had received our booking and check-in was quick. They were also able to store our valuables. It was only a short was to the park and central area of the Miraflores district and we enjoyed the free breakfast on the roof terrace, although basic the rolls were actually fresh!

Nice place in a nice location with nice staff. Would stay again.

I love the place, the service is amazing....

The staff here were very friendly and helpful and made me feel welcome as soon as i arrived. The room was clean with hot water and free towels. Nice breakfast (by Peruvian standards!) including yoghurt and fruit. Good location, 4 blocks from Miraflores, tourist centre. No complaints at all, felt very safe and at home here.

Our first room had a spider living in one of the beds, staff were reluctant to let us switch rooms even though the hostel was practically empty. Then made us move rooms again for no apparent reason. NO atmosphere. Showers were serviceable but often cold. That said, I guess its quite cheap. We stayed 4 nights, would never stay that long again. Would I come back at all? If I had no other choice, maybe. For as little time as possible.

Stayed at the hostel for 4 nights, on each of which the staff were extremely helpful in oranising our rooms, giving information about stays, and assisting in booking tickets through other peruvian companies. The breakfast was also great, with excellent fresh food and great coffee. Overall; a highly recommendable hostel with great staff, and great position into lima city.
