Lonely Planet Review

Standing apart from the main drag in Miraflores, this upscale chain hotel offers more comfort than you'd expect, with high-tech modern perks that are otherwise hard to find in Peru. If you're lucky the affable, multi-lingual staff will even have warm chocolate-chip cookies waiting for you upon check-in.

Unlike many business hotels in Lima, the Doubletree provides free wi-fi Internet access throughout the all-modern property, which is artfully enhanced by antique and contemporary Peruvian paintings. The hotel goes beyond the call of duty with a full roster of 24hr services, including a business centre and a gigantic workout facility where you can make an appointment for a relaxing massage. The enclosed rooftop pool has a sundeck with city views. The humdrum chain-hotel rooms aren't nearly so impressive, but you won't be spending much time in them. On the ground floor, Zuma Restaurant has enthusiastic Peruvian music and dance performances most evenings. The Doubletree is also within easy walking distance of Miraflores' best shopping streets and eateries.
