La propiedad — La Florida
La Florida is a no-frills 3-star in Lima’s Miraflores district, steps from the Malecón’s coastal cliffs. The lobby feels like a modest business hotel from the 1990s – clean tiled floors, a small front desk, and a faint smell of floor polish. It suits budget-conscious travellers who want reliable wifi and a safe base for exploring, not a resort experience. The USP is location: you’re a 5-minute walk from Larcomar shopping and the Pacific Ocean views.
Crónicas de Lima
Lima was founded in 1535 by conquistador Francisco Pizarro as the City of Kings, becoming the capital of the Viceroyalty of Perú. Its historic centre is a Unesco World Heritage site, with colonial balconies and baroque churches like the Cathedral and San Francisco monastery. The 20th century saw a modernist wave, especially in Miraflores and San Isidro, where sleek apartment towers now line the coast. Today, Lima is a culinary powerhouse, blending Indigenous, Spanish, African and Asian influences into a distinct, ceviche-centric food scene. The city’s coastal identity and year-round spring-like gloom (the *garúa* mist) shape its rhythms.
El mejor momento para visitar
Guía completa de Lima →Los mejores meses
December to March – summer heat peaks at 26°C, skies clear, and the sea is warm enough for swimming. January and February are ideal for beach days and outdoor festivals without the heavy crowds of Christmas/New Year.
Peak / Festival Surge
Peak is January and February, when summer holidays fill Miraflores hotels. Prices jump 30-40%, driven by Peruvian tourists escaping the highlands and international visitors. The Mistura food festival in September is a secondary spike, but it’s held in a different district.
La temporada del hombro
April and May are the sweet spot: still mild (20-24°C), less rain than summer, and hotel rates drop 20% after the peak. September and October also offer discounts, though with more *garúa* mist.
Tiempo y embalaje
Lima’s year-round humidity (80%+ ) means dampness seeps into everything; expect persistent overcast from June to October. Pack a waterproof jacket and a quick-dry towel – do not rely on cotton drying overnight in the *garúa* season.
Briefing en vivo de la ciudad — Lima
- The new Lima Metro Line 2 partially opened in early 2026, connecting Ate-Vitarte to the city centre, but it doesn’t reach Miraflores – you’ll still rely on taxis or the Metropolitano bus for the coast. Expect ongoing roadworks along Avenida Pardo in Miraflores until late 2026. The Malecón’s path maintenance often closes sections in July; check the municipal website for detours. The 2026 ‘Perú Summer gastronomy festival’ finishes in late June, so restaurant reservations near the hotel should be easier in early July.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to La Florida, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 4 through 6 facing the inner courtyard (away from the street). These upper floors are quieter and have less foot traffic from the lobby and restaurant.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on floors 1–3, especially those facing the main road. Street noise and lobby activity are most noticeable here, and the lift hum can be heard on adjacent rooms near the shaft.
Best views
Limited view options. Upper-floor courtyard rooms offer a calmer outlook over the interior, but no panoramic city views. Some rooms may see the street — avoid those for quiet.
Quietest floors
Floors 4, 5, and 6 are the quietest — farthest from street-level noise and the lobby bustle. Rooms facing the courtyard are best.
🔊 Noise notes
Main noise sources: street traffic (particularly during Lima’s peak hours 7–9am and 5–8pm), the lift motor on floors 1–3, and occasional restaurant/bar noise until 10pm. Avenida nearby carries bus and taxi sounds.
Insider tips
1. Check in after 3pm when check-out crowds thin, giving you more choice of quieter rooms. 2. If you’re sensitive to noise, bring earplugs; internal walls are standard 3-star construction — soundproofing is minimal.
- 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
