We arrived and were well received, and assigned a lovely suite on floor 5 (it's very stylish and spacious, but somewhat loud). Everything is nice but the noise: raucous Limeńos hooting at each other throughout the day, punctuated by the occasional car alarm or siren, and barking dogs.

BAR $309, ouch! We're on an award, and our breakfast is restricted to the 11th floor Executive Lounge.

Water is potable throughout the hotel; ice must be ordered from room service (no ice machines).

Our suite has a large, comfortable living room with divan, spacious desk with two task chairs and US and Euro electric outlets and a mini-bar, coffee setup (the latter is free). The bath is very large, with oversize walk-in shower (rain and handheld options), two sinks, plenty of light, Peter Thomas Roth amenities, lots of toweling, etc.

The closet includes an ironing set, large electronic safe, possibly insufficient hangers for a family or longer stay.

The bedroom (king bed) includes a black glass panel with 37" LCD television, some drawers, a chaise, leather lap desk on a drum table, two large bedside tables with iHome clock, plenty of lighting throughout.

Color scheme is off white accented with browns and black finished furnishings.

We ate in today (our flight was delayed because the mechanics had to repair a puncture of the baggage compartment The deal of the stay is the "Almuerzo Ejecutivo" (business lunch), which offers a selection of about six appetizers (the ceviche was mid-size, rather than meal size, and very tasty) and another half dozen main dishes for PEN 49 $1.00=3.18 PEN today). For PEN 59, add dessert - another selection.

This was very good, and with good (huge) Pisco sours to start, sparkling water and a glass of Malbec (they come around with a cart for wines by the glass, are happy to let you taste and to explain the wines to you - our waiter "Peret" was actually quite knowledgeable) the three course lunch and optional tip (service is 10%, IGV was 17%) just at USD $100. We'll have the light supper at the lounge tonight, because that was actually a very nice lunch.

Lounge: two Internet computers, one local newspaper and one four page broadsheet distilling Latin American news from Agence France-Presse, two large flatscreen televisions (one off, the other FOX news when we were there). Much better WiFi signal than in our suite.

Breakfast: fruits (muskmelon, papaya, pineapple, watermelon, red grapes and papaya), juices, yoghurt cups (local with varied fillings daily), breads (mini-buns, mini-croissants, mini-Danish, de-crusted white and whole meal for toasting), package cereals, some form of eggs or omelet and accompaniments (e.g. pancakes, hum it's, potato mix, etc.) and use of espresso / cappuccino machine, sparkling and flat waters, soft drinks).

Lunch: today, accompaniments plus quinoa soup, ossobucco bourguignon, chicken thighs in sauce of red fruits. Next day, lomo saltado (beef), vegetables sautéed, lamb chops... Very extensive light lunch!

Dinner: chicken thighs in sauce, ... I saw families who ate here 2-3 x per day.

Good lunch and supper options!

Social bar offers good ceviche starter (really small dinner) and large, delicious Pisco sours (truly lousy monitors, though) and a happy hour 6 to 10 pm that brings some prices down nicely.
