).DINING plenty of nearby restaurants, even in the same building. Most lunch restaurants open at 12:30, some do not accept reservations. Peruvians usually fill popular places after 1:00 pm, and the restaurants may remain busy 'til 3:00 pm; show up close to 12:30 so you don't have to wait. Usually Chilean and Argentine wines are on offer.

I'm back there next month, first visit since Covid. Sad to hear the onlty spirit they have is pisco now at happy hour, but I like Pisco sours.
Hoping they still do the cart at breakfast and have special diamond menu.
For anyone that has an amex platinum and will be there before 2/15 with a stay that will be at least $750, there is an offer on the amex site (wasn't on the Hilton card, just the platinum) that if you spend $750 you get $150 back on Hiltons in Latin America, Mexico and the Carribean and all the Lima properties were on the list of included properties

The only one of my AmEx it was on was the Platinum. Wish it would have been on my Hilto AmEx.
There's people saying they received the apple pay and Uber offers on the AmEx formum and I didn't receive them. Not sure how AmEx decides who to give what offers to?

Have my first stay post covid this week. Forgot to convert currency with my bank and it's too late to get it in time and don't want to mess around with the airport currency exchange high fees
Is Green Taxi still the best transportation to get to the hotel from the airport and do they accept credit cards? I always paid in cash in the past. I'm planning on using the ATM at the hotel since my bank doesn't charge ATM fees but if I need it for the car, I'll try to find an ATM at the airport.

We're excited to be returning here next week for a multi-night stay for the first time since 2018. This remains one of our very favorite Hiltons after three stays, and six years later I'm happy to see the continuing positive comments here and elsewhere.
I'd welcome any feedback about recent stays and we'll add anything we think might be useful to others.

I've stayed there at least three other times before, and even with the cutbacks, it's still one of my favorite Hiltons.
I had an AmEx offer for Latin America hotels, and this property qualified, so I saved some money on that.
I had a medical emergency two days before my stay was to end (lost my eye sight in one eye and called my neighbor who is a doctor and he told me to get on the next flight home, turned out to be a detached retina), and I explained the situation to the front desk and the manager agreed to let me out of the remaining nights. I was on an 11 pm.flight, and had no issue paying for the room that night since I wanted use of it that day, and they gave me an 8 p.m. checkout which I thought was generous and also offered to try to find me a doctor. Great service.
Had a nice upgrade and love the rooftop pool and breakfast outside. A couple cutbacks though. They use to have lunch and a lot more food at dinner time and they no longer have lunch (not a big deal since there are so many good places to eat at in Lima). They have really cut back on the alcohol selection at happy hour and only had wine and a couple beers but the staff will get you a free pisco sour from the bar next door,hich is my go to drink in Lima. The breakfast is still really good, but they don't have the Dim Sum type cart they use to bring around. They do have a bread basket with assorted breads though.

Thank you both. For some reason I’m unable to “like” the comments.
we arrived late last night and were upgraded to a corner junior suite, a very good start.👍
