La propriété — Pool paradise

Pool Paradise is exactly what it says on the tin: a functional three-star with a clean, tiled courtyard pool that gets the Lima sun for most of the afternoon. The lobby is tiled, open to the breeze, and smells faintly of chlorine and cafecito. It suits budget-conscious families or couples who want a safe, central base to crash after sightseeing, not a design statement.

Chroniques de Lima

Lima was founded by Francisco Pizarro in 1535 as the City of Kings, becoming the capital of the Spanish Viceroyalty of Peru. Its colonial core, the Historic Centre, is a UNESCO World Heritage site, loaded with carved wooden balconies and baroque churches. Earthquakes in 1746 and 1940 forced repeated rebuilds, so the city you see today mixes 17th-century relics with mid-century modern blocks and glass towers. Contemporary Lima is a chaotic, food-obsessed metropolis of ten million, where cevicherías sit next to Nikkei sushi joints and the Pacific fog (garúa) muffles everything from May to November.

Meilleur moment pour visiter

Guide complet de Lima →

Meilleurs mois

December through March are Lima’s summer: sunny, 26–28°C, lower humidity, and the garúa lifts entirely. January and February are best for beach days and open-air ceviche.

Peak / Festival surge

January is peak season for domestic tourism, especially Semana de la Independencia (late July) actually draws fewer international visitors but fills hotels with Peruvians. Prices at Pool Paradise can jump 30–40% in January; book six weeks ahead.

La saison des épaules

April and October offer mild 20–22°C days, thin crowds, and hotel rates 20% below summer peaks. The garúa starts creeping back in May, but April still feels like a pleasant autumn.

Météo & Emballage

Lima’s quirk: winter (June–August) is gray, damp, and only 15–18°C, but rain is rare. Pack a lightweight waterproof jacket and layers; leave the umbrella, bring a scarf.

Briefing de la ville — Lima

  • The new Metro Line 2 extension now connects Avenida Aviación to Avenida Circunvalación, easing trips between central Miraflores and the airport; buy a rechargeable card at any station.
  • Lima’s culinary festival Mistura has been paused for 2026, but several pop-up ceviche weekends are being hosted at Parque Kennedy through July (check Lima Tourism’s Instagram).
  • Construction on the Malecón de la Costa Verde cycle path has added a new 3 km stretch past Barranco, but expect occasional closures on Saturday mornings for maintenance work.

Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Pool paradise, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request a room on floors 3 to 5 facing the interior courtyard. These floors avoid street noise from Avenida La Marina and have quicker lift access than higher floors. The courtyard side is quieter and gets decent natural light.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Avoid rooms on floor 1 near the reception and bar — noise from late-night guests and staff prep carries. Also avoid rooms at the back near the service entrance where rubbish collection starts around 6am.

🪟

Best views

Rooms on floors 4 and 5 facing front will give you a view of Avenida La Marina and the distant Andes on clear days, but you'll trade noise for that vista. For a decent view with less noise, choose a courtyard-facing room on floor 5 — you overlook the pool and garden.

😴

Quietest floors

Floors 3 to 5, interior courtyard side.

🔊 Noise notes

Street noise comes from Avenida La Marina traffic (buses, taxis). The bar downstairs plays music until 11pm-12am on weekends. Service entrance noise at the back (6am-7am rubbish collection). Lift motor hum audible on floors closest to the lift shaft.

Insider tips

If you arrive by taxi, ask the driver to drop you at the side entrance on Calle 3 — it's quieter and there's an informal luggage porter. Request a room at booking with 'courtyard view and high floor' written in the notes; the desk often honours it. The pool is small but heated — around 25°C — so pack goggles if you want proper laps.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
