While my family and I mostly travel to Lima for pleasure, we also like to stay in San Isidro because we prefer a distinctly non-touristy experience—and we just love San Isidro.

It’s home not only to the commercial center of Peru, but also to the majority of foreign embassies, along with some fantastic restaurants, hotels, and shopping.

If you are heading to Lima with business on your mind—or you just love a hotel that understands the power of strong Wi-Fi and plush bedding—San Isidro is where you want to stay.

This district has it all, and it’s perfect for both business travelers and leisure seekers.

I’ve stayed in (and snooped around) quite a few spots in the area, so here are my top picks for San Isidro hotels in Lima that serve up comfort, style, and a little Peruvian magic.

9 Best San Isidro Hotels in Lima Peru

Read on to discover these top hotels in San Isidro and what they have to offer.

Swissotel Lima

If classic five-star luxury is your vibe, Swissotel nails it. Smack in the heart of San Isidro, it’s a favorite among international travelers thanks to its massive conference facilities, executive perks, and warm, polished service.

This is my family’s go-to—and trust me, I could write an entire post about why we love it so much.

Why I love it:

• Well-appointed rooms with sweeping city views (even some ancient ruins)
• Indoor/outdoor pool combo (yes, swim season is always on)
• Incredible restaurants in and around the hotel:
  • Anima Cuore
  • Osso
  • Napoleon
  • ShiNua
  • Even a Starbucks for those jet-lagged mornings

The Westin Lima Hotel & Convention Center

Westin Lima’s sleek tower rises above Lima’s skyline with its floor-to-ceiling glass and ultra-modern vibe. It’s one of the top business hotels in Lima, with a massive convention center that hosts everything from corporate events to high-end galas.

Why I love it:

• Heavenly Spa by Westin (and yes, it lives up to the name)
• Big, bright rooms with panoramic windows
• An incredible buffet breakfast that deserves its own itinerary

Country Club Lima Hotel

The Country Club Lima Hotel is the definition of elegant, historic luxury. A national monument, the Country Club feels like a beautifully restored time capsule—complete with crystal chandeliers, antique artwork, and whisper-quiet hallways.

Why I love it:

• Iconic colonial architecture
• Dreamy breakfasts on the terrace
• Direct access to the Lima Golf Club
• Gorgeous shops, a luxe spa, and that unmistakable old-school charm

Honorable Mentions

All of the following hotels are in fantastic locations with great access to restaurants and the business district of Lima.

Hyatt Centric San Isidro

Trendy and polished, this hotel strikes a good balance between business function and boutique design. It’s super walkable—just steps from some of San Isidro’s best restaurants—and has a buzzy rooftop bar perfect for post-meeting drinks.

Pullman Lima San Isidro

Modern, sleek, and refreshingly understated. Pullman is a strong choice if you’re in town for work but don’t want to sacrifice style. The rooms are quiet and well-appointed, and the gym is one of the better ones in the area.

Plus, it’s located on a quiet street just off the main business drag—easy access without the noise. 

Manto Hotel Lima – MGallery

Under its former incarnation as the Foresta, this was actually the first hotel I ever stayed at alone in Lima—so it holds a special place in my heart. It’s a fantastic option for solo female travelers: very safe, well-lit, and surrounded by great restaurants. There’s even Lima’s version of Whole Foods just steps away.

Plus, Manto, now part of Accor’s MGallery collection, is beautifully design-forward and offers an extra dose of service.

Arte Hotel Lima

This one’s fun, funky, and full of color. Arte Hotel leans into the “art” part of its name with local artwork, playful design, and a cozy, youthful energy. It’s more casual than some of the others, but still stylish—and EXTREMELY well-located with great restaurants, including my personal favorite Troppo right out the front door. Arte is ideal if you’re on a slightly tighter budget but still want a boutique experience.

Aku Hotels

Aku is clean, modern, and reliable—perfect for quick business trips or overnight stays before flying out. It’s not trying to wow you with flashy decor, but it is well-run, quiet, and comfortable, with solid Wi-Fi and a good breakfast spread. You can be in and out with zero stress.

Sonesta El Olivar

A longtime favorite in San Isidro, Sonesta sits right alongside El Olivar Park, giving you that leafy, tranquil backdrop while still being steps from the business buzz. The rooms are spacious and well-maintained, and the service is consistently excellent. It’s a great mix of classic comfort and prime location—especially if you love morning walks through the olive trees.
