The Point Hostels Lima Reviews

I stay in Lima a lot, so I decided to check out the Point for a quick overnight. I had to catch a plane early the next morning, so I was looking for a place to meet a few nice people and get a couple of hours sleep. Unfortunately the rooms are all situated right off the bar, and the music was blasting until 1am. Basically, you can't expect to get any sleep until 3am. The staff told me that they "assume everyone is at the party". I love a good party, but noise until 3am is excessive.

Awesome hostel. Something happening every night.

This hostel was great for a few nights in Lima, in a good area close to everything. The atmosphere in the bar was great and the food from the kitchen excellent. Hostel doesnt have a private kitchen for your own cooking, but the food is good and cheap.

I've stayed at a few hostels around the world, and no lie this is by far my favorite one I've stayed. My friend Tim and I were talking about how our trip to Peru wouldn't have been the same if it weren't for The Point in Lima. This hostel really knows how to party and made great friends while being there. Danny at reception is the man, was really accommodating because we weren't sure exactly how long our stay was going to be at the hostel. I definitely recommend this place!

If you're looking for aplace to have fun, party with guests and a staff that will help you and not get in the way of a good time then this is a sweet place. i would recommend it to anyone.

Good deal. Great location. Staff is attentive for Peruvian standards.

Any night is a potential party night.

Cannot fault the place, great staff, easy to meet other backpackers, nice chill out areas and a good party. Dollar exchange rate not great but thats the same everywhere, ill be back before i fly home

EPIC PARTY PLACE i heard a lot about Point in Lima and i happy to say its lived up to its reputation GREAT STAFF (thanx Rob and Loren at the bar !!!) liked the location as well you just step out and see the ocean very safe area RECOMMENDED

I am travelling alone, and when I first got to the point I made friends right away! I had no problems during my stay. When I went on to Cuzco I stayed at the point there as well, which is even better! It isn´t a quiet hostel but it´s good if you like to party or are an easy sleeper!

The hostel itself was nice: good dorms, bathrooms, outdoor area and TV room. I thought the vibe was a little weird though. The Point is a chain hostel, and that was very obvious here; it felt really corporate and not unique. The crowd when I was there was more of a "suitcaser" crowd instead of backpackers, meaning that most people there were on short vacations, and just passing through. The price and location made it an alright place to stay, but I wouldn't go back.

Noisy,doorbell ringing all night long.nice breakfast though

hostel was clean. staff were very helpful especially anna and diana on the front desk and travel desk. the bar was lively and the place was nice and busy. great place to meet people

the place really had character

The staff were really friendly and helpful. There was a good atmosphere in the bar in the evenings.

There are only tiny lockers which might fit a netbook and passport etc but nothing else. No lockers for backpacks. It was a really fun place though with free pool table, decent bar and nice garden. Someone at reception helped me book a bus to trujillo, the lockers was the only issue.

Stayed over Halloween and had a great party. the place is clean and if you want a night out it`s a good place to go. If you want to stay in and watch a film it isn`t as bar is next to the TV area with no door and regardless of anyone being in the bar the music is loud from about 7pm. Overall would recommend though. (Bit annoying that I had to book on hostelworld everyday though as it was S/7 more to book at reception!!)

Hostel really good. It´s a party hostel and edwin throws one good party.

Nice hostel. We stayed only for the night and it was good enough. Looked like a partying kind of hostel. It has a HUGE playroom (or chilling out room). Great place, really.

The Point in Lima was excellent! So good in fact I moved to their hostel in Cusco. It is a super fun place right near the beach. Edwin knows how to show you a good time in the bars of Lima and the staff are very friendly. Ana is great for helping you book excursions on the town or even trips to get you to your next destination. The rest of the staff were helpful too although I forget most of their names. I met lots of great people and will be going back there when I have to fly home from Lima.
