Overview

Hotel B is a tranquil and elegant boutique hotel located in the trendy Barranco district of Lima. It’s set in a mansion house dating back to the early 1900s, once the summer beachside retreat of a wealthy family. An extensive restoration project repurposed the mansion as a hotel and added a new three-storey annex. While the building has long been appreciated for its many architectural merits, today it’s also known as one of Lima’s most worthwhile boutique hotels.

Rooms are grouped into three categories: Atelier, Aposento and Alcoba. In total, there are 17 spacious, air-conditioned rooms; some offer views of the central courtyard, whilst others have street views. Common to all rooms are facilities such as complimentary toiletries, a hot water bottle, a plasma TV, a minibar and a vintage armoire. All bathrooms feature a rain shower, whilst some offer a separate bathtub as well. Rooms are decorated in a pleasant and stylish manner; those in the original mansion building are slightly more historic, whilst those in the newer contemporary wing are somewhat more modern in feel.

The hotel’s public areas comprise the library, with doors opening out on to the courtyard, and the living room, which is an ideal meeting point and the hotel’s largest room. There’s also an enclosed patio where guests can eat, a lounge with daily newspapers, coffee and snacks provided, and the Sundowner Deck, a private rooftop lounge, where guests can enjoy drinks and lighter meals whilst taking in views of the Pacific Ocean. Decorated in an old-world style, the Dining Room is the hotel’s main restaurant and is open throughout the day, serving both Peruvian and Mediterranean small dishes and daily afternoon tea.

Hotel B's location is ideal for exploring the vibrant district of Barranco, known for its abundance of art galleries, museums and theatres and a thriving arts scene. Many musicians, artists and designers are attracted to its buzzing streets. Note that the hotel houses its own art collection and it’s also directly linked with the Lucia de la Puente Gallery which showcases a range of local, national and international artwork. The coast is just a short walk away, as are quite a few public parks.

Children of all ages are welcome. It’s recommended that families with children under 6 years of age book one of the downstairs rooms since the balconies in the upstairs rooms aren't particularly child friendly. Parents are reminded to keep children under adult supervision at all times.

  • We had such a good holiday. You did a fantastic job!

    The house in Marrakesh was ridiculous. We effectively had it to ourselves. The accommodation was borderline palatial.

    I actually think that the time we had in Marrakesh was sufficient. We could potentially have done a day by a pool but I think we’d done enough souk-ing by the end of Day Two.

    The hotel in the mountains was a shade more rustic than I was expecting, but all great fun. Stunning views. The guide / mule / cook team were excellent and our guide (Hassan) tailored the treks to our capabilities well. He was superb, and really made an effort with the kids. The second and third day of trekking were particularly good. Such an adventure for the kids.

    All the logistics worked seamlessly. Every aspect went like clockwork. Top marks. The advice on tipping was also much appreciated (I hate thinking that I’m getting mugged off or am potentially not giving enough…).

    From my seven-year-old son:

    I thought it was GREAT. The food was amazing and the culture was very interesting. My favourite bit was scrambling up rocks in the Atlas Mountains.

    In retrospect, I’d probably do the trip in reverse. Flopping on the roof terrace after the rigours of the mountains would have been even more satisfying.

  • We just wanted to thank you for an absolutely amazing holiday. Everything went exactly to plan and we were blown away with the quality of the guides, transport and accommodation. The itinerary was perfect for our family with a great mix of guided and free days and the different destinations complemented each other well. We will definitely be using Tourdust again for our next trip! Particular highlights were the Ha Long Bay cruise, Hanoi, and the morning cycle tour in Siam Reap
