부동산 — Hotel Piscina

Hotel Piscina in Miraflores is a modest three-star with a genuine swimming pool on the roof, something rare in central Lima. The lobby feels like a quiet 1970s townhouse: dark tiles, a worn reception desk, and the smell of chlorine drifting down the stairs. It suits budget travellers who want a pool to cool off after a day in the city and don't expect designer finishes.

Lima 연대기

Lima was founded by Francisco Pizarro in 1535 as the City of Kings, capital of the Spanish Viceroyalty of Peru. Its historic centre is a Unesco World Heritage site, filled with colonial mansions and wooden balconies that blend Spanish, Indigenous and African influences. The 20th century brought a wave of modernist and brutalist architecture, especially in the coastal districts. Today, Lima is a sprawling, chaotic metropolis of 10 million people, known for its world-class ceviche and persistent coastal fog called garúa.

최고의 달

July and August: sunny winter days, blue skies over the coast, no rain, and manageable tourist numbers in Miraflores.

Peak / Festival Surge 근처 오락거리

January to March is peak summer season, driven by school holidays and the Lord of Miracles procession in October. Hotel prices roughly double in January and February; expect crowds at beaches and in Barranco.

Budget Shoulder 시즌

April and May offer noticeably lower prices, mild weather, and fewer tourists, while still having plenty of daylight hours.

날씨 & 포장

Lima's winter runs June to September, but temperature rarely drops below 14°C; the real issue is the thick, damp garúa cloud. Pack a light fleece or hoodie for mornings and evenings, and always bring a rain jacket even if no rain is forecast.

City Briefing 근처 오락거리 — Lima

  • The new Metropolitano bus extension to San Juan de Lurigancho opened in late 2025, improving access from central Lima to the north-east but does not affect the Miraflores area directly.
  • Miraflores’ Malecón coastal park is fully open after recent renovation, with new cycle lanes and lookouts; walking times between the hotel and Parque Kennedy remain unchanged.
  • Lima’s airport (Jorge Chávez) is adding a new terminal due in 2025, but official completion has slipped to early 2026 — check for construction delays before booking transfers.

Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Hotel Piscina, 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 inner courtyard (away from Avenida Trapiche) for the best balance of quiet and natural light. These floors are high enough to avoid street-level noise but low enough for quick lift access.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Avoid ground-floor rooms (1st floor) — they suffer from street noise from Avenida Trapiche and potential foot traffic near reception. Also avoid rooms directly above the lift shaft or service entrance (typically on lower floors), as lift machinery and staff movement create vibration and clatter.

🪟

Best views

Ask for a room with a side or rear window (not facing the avenue) to overlook the hotel's inner courtyard or the neighbourhood rooftops — gives a decent view without the drone of Lima traffic. The front-facing rooms just look onto a busy street.

😴

Quietest floors

3rd, 4th, 5th floors — these sit above the lobby and street hubbub, below any roof-level plant/bar, and have less footfall than ground floor.

🔊 Noise notes

Avenida Trapiche is a main road in Lima — expect traffic noise (buses, honking) from early morning until late evening. The lift is likely a standard 3-star model, so it can be audible on adjacent walls; rooms near the lift shaft may hum. No mention of a pool or bar, but if the hotel has a small pool or lobby bar, those can add evening chatter.

Insider tips

1. Check in early (around 2-3pm) and ask at the desk to see a courtyard-facing room before committing — they often have a quieter option available if you ask nicely. 2. If you drive, ask about street parking on Avenida Trapiche — it's tight and the hotel may have a small lot or recommend a nearby garage; don't assume free parking.

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
