A propriedade — Hotel Boulevard
Hotel Boulevard is a no-frills two-star on a busy stretch of Avenida Garcilaso de la Vega, a block from Plaza San Martín. The lobby is small, tiled, and functional—pegboard key racks, a tired sofa, and the faint hum of Lima traffic. It suits the budget traveller who needs a clean bed, hot water, and reliable WiFi near downtown, not atmosphere or quiet.
Crónicas de Lima
Lima was founded in 1535 by Francisco Pizarro as the City of Kings, becoming the political and commercial hub of Spain's South American empire. Its colonial core still holds grand plazas and ornate churches, but tremors and neglect erased much of the early fabric. The 20th century brought a chaotic sprawl of concrete and glass, as millions migrated from the Andes. Today Lima is a gritty, energetic metropolis of ten million, known for its world-class ceviche and a cultural identity split between preserved colonial elegance and raw modern survival.

Guia completo de Lima →Melhores meses
January to March: warmest weather (24–28°C) with sunnier skies, ideal for coastal walks and street life, but crowds peak during summer holidays.
Peak / Festival Surge
July is peak season for international travellers escaping northern winter. Hotel prices can jump 20–30% for decent rooms; the main driver is the general southern-hemisphere winter break.
Orçamento da temporada
April and October offer mild temperatures (18–22°C), fewer tourists, and cheaper rates. The famous fog (garúa) often lifts by late morning.
Tempo e embalagem
Lima's coastal desert means near-zero rain but persistent grey drizzle (garúa) from June to October. Pack a light waterproof jacket and layers—most of the city is 15–20°C in winter.
Livro City Briefing — Lima
- The new Line 2 of Lima's Metro is partially open (Ate–San Juan de Lurigancho), but the downtown section remains under construction; expect bus re-routes on Avenida Grau and Avenida Abancay.
- Peru's domestic flights from Lima to Cusco are still running but face occasional cancellations due to ongoing runway repairs at Alejandro Velasco Astete Airport.
- July is winter in Lima—expect grey skies and the garúa mist, especially mornings. Bring a scarf; Peruvians dress smart-casual even in budget hotels.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Hotel Boulevard, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 3rd or 4th floor, facing away from the street (toward the interior courtyard if available). These upper floors reduce street noise and are high enough to avoid ground-level disturbances from the lobby and foot traffic.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid the 1st floor entirely: rooms here are closest to the street, the lobby, and any ground-floor noise from reception or passing traffic. Also avoid rooms at the front of the hotel (facing the main road) on any floor, as Lima’s streets are busy with cars, buses, and mototaxis.
Best views
At a 2-star hotel on a main Lima street, the best view is from a higher floor facing the street—likely other buildings and busy roads. If you prefer less urban grit, a room facing the rear courtyard offers a quieter outlook but no real vista. No water or landmark views are expected here.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 to 5 are the quietest, being far enough from street level and away from heavy floor traffic. If the hotel has 5 floors, request the 5th—it’s usually the top and least disturbed.
🔊 Noise notes
Lima’s street traffic is constant—cars, buses, mototaxis—especially on main roads. The hotel’s ground floor may have a bar or lobby that adds noise until late evening. Lift activity on floors 1-2 can also be audible if the hotel is small.
Insider tips
1) Ask for a room at the back when booking or at check-in—courtyard-side reduces street noise significantly. 2) Bring earplugs regardless, as 2-star hotels in central Lima often lack soundproofing. If arriving late, confirm the front desk is staffed 24/7 to avoid lockout issues.
- 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
