Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Amazon Ventures Lodge, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (4th or above) to minimize street noise from the main road. The hotel's location in Iquitos means that rooms on lower floors may be affected by traffic and pedestrian noise.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the elevator, as the small size of the hotel means the lift may be more prone to noise from the adjacent rooms and corridors.
Best views
As the hotel is situated in Iquitos, the best views will be of the surrounding cityscape or the nearby river. Request a room with a city view for a glimpse of the Amazon rainforest's edge.
Quietest floors
Floors 4-6 are likely to be the quietest, as they are away from the street and lift noise.
🔊 Noise notes
Be aware that Iquitos is a city with significant traffic and pedestrian noise, so even higher floors may still experience some noise pollution.
Insider tips
Arrive early for check-in to take advantage of the hotel's limited parking, as spaces are likely to fill up quickly in the city center. Request a room with a fridge to store your perishable items, as the hotel's small size means that room service may not be available at all hours.
- 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

Top Attractions in Iquitos
💡 Try a 'helado de aguaje' (local fruit ice cream) from the stalls – it's cheap and tastes like a tropical sorbet. Best visited after 5pm when it's cooler.
💡 Walk the full stretch from the Clock Tower to the old Hotel de Turistas. The street food stalls sell fresh fruit juices for 2-3 soles.
💡 Free entrance but you need to sign in with your passport at reception. Allow 45 minutes. No English labels, so bring a translation app or guidebook.
💡 Check out the Casa de Fierro on the corner — an iron house designed by Gustave Eiffel. Free to admire from outside.
💡 Go early (6am-8am) to avoid heat and crowds. Keep valuables hidden; bag snatching happens in tight aisles. A boat tour costs around 15-20 soles per person.
