La propiedad — Hs Las Gardenias
Hs Las Gardenias is a no-frills three-star hotel in Miraflores, Lima’s commercial and tourist hub. The lobby feels mid-century functional: tiled floors, a small reception desk, and a tired leather sofa. It suits budget-conscious travellers who value location over character — you are two blocks from the cliff-top Malecón and a ten-minute walk to Parque Kennedy. Expect clean, basic rooms with weak soundproofing; the USP is walking out the door straight into Lima’s best neighbourhood for cafés, parks, and Pacific views.
Crónicas de Lima
Lima was founded by Francisco Pizarro in 1535 as the City of Kings, capital of the Spanish Viceroyalty of Peru. Its colonial core retains heavy Baroque churches and carved wooden balconies, but the city exploded outwards in the 20th century with modernist developments and vast informal settlements. Today Lima is a sprawling, car-choked metropolis of ten million, where pre-Columbian huacas sit between office towers and cevicherías. Culturally, it is the culinary capital of Latin America, driven by immigrant fusion and the Pacific’s bounty.
El mejor momento para visitar
Guía completa de Lima →Los mejores meses
January to March — warmest weather (24–28°C), least fog, clear skies for coastal views. Crowds are moderate, as southern summer coincides with school holidays.
Peak / Festival Surge
January and February are peak for domestic tourism and the Señor de los Milagros festival in October. Hotel prices can rise 20–30% over base; advance booking essential for this 3-star, especially in Miraflores.
La temporada del hombro
April and November offer milder temperatures, thinner crowds, and lower rates (often 15% below peak). Good for budget stays without the winter grey.
Tiempo y embalaje
Lima’s coastal desert means high humidity and a persistent winter fog (garúa) from June to October, despite rarely raining. Pack a lightweight waterproof jacket and layers: mornings can be 14°C, afternoons 19°C. Leave the umbrella at home — drizzle is more a mist you feel than rain you need to shield.
Briefing en vivo de la ciudad — Lima
- The Lima Metro Line 2 extension to Ate remains behind schedule; for Miraflores, stick to buses or taxis (use official apps like Uber or Beat).
- Miraflores’ Malecón cycling path is fully open after 2024 repairs, with bike rentals easy near Parque Kennedy.
- Several new ceviche-focused pop-ups have opened along Avenida La Mar, a short walk from the hotel — check hours, as many close by 5pm.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Hs Las Gardenias, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 4th or 5th floor facing the interior courtyard (away from Avenida Benavides). These floors sit above street-level bustle but below the roof, so less foot traffic noise from above.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the 1st or 2nd floor facing the avenue — you’ll get direct noise from taxis, buses, and street vendors. Also skip rooms near the single lift shaft (usually runs up the building’s centre) if you’re a light sleeper.
Best views
Request a high-floor room with a side window facing southwest — you’ll get a sliver of the Pacific Ocean on clear days, rather than just the avenue’s concrete and traffic.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 to 5 are typically the quietest, being far enough from street-level racket and not directly under any rooftop activity.
🔊 Noise notes
Avenida Alfredo Benavides is a main through-road in Lima’s Miraflores district, with constant traffic 6am to 11pm. The hotel’s thin double glazing (common in 3-star Peruvian hotels) won’t block it completely.
Insider tips
1. Park in the nearby public lot on Calle Bellavista (half the price of the hotel’s own parking). 2. Ask reception for a room key copy immediately — their single key system is slow, and you’ll queue at peak breakfast times.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
