The hotel was once very famous. It had an elevator at that time. Many celebrities stayed there. The restaurant was crowded at night. When you checked in, you would get a small cocktail with lemon flavor. It was also very famous! I also tasted the yellow one which seemed to be mango flavored, not bad! There will be tourists visiting here. You can walk to the Plaza de Armas from the San Martin Square. The only thing I'm sure is that it has a stale smell. It's bearable after staying for two nights. Recommended!

We did not stay here, but rather came for cocktails and snacks. The old world charm of the place is undeniable even if she's starting to show her age. The pisco sour catedral style is wonderful. The snack platter and antipasto were huge...so huge we had to order more cocktails. If you're in the historical centre, why not enjoy some historical luxury?

We stayed here for the location and historical aspect. We paid a lot extra for a large suite so we could have AC. First night there was no AC in the living room. Not so bad as we slept in the bedroom. The problem occurred when we found out we had a major emergency at home and had to leave. I understand charging us for the first one as their policy is 48 hrs. But the second night they would not refund because I called at 5 PM on Sat. (So paid for Sunday) but the said check in for Monday was 3 PM so I was 2 hours late in calling. I hope they never have a horrible tragedy happen and have to leave a planned 6 week vacation! NO HEART! The hotel is worth walking through for the history a a very good Pisco sour, but it is just too old to be representing itself as anything grand. Staff was very pleasant although very UNDERSTAFFED. Management is horrible.

We came to Gran Hotel Bolivar for its famous pisco sour and it did not disappoint. We ordered two different flavors. Both were really good. They were much stronger than the cocktails I'm used to. The view of the streets from the bar was very good too.

I love the Bolivar, have stayed there twice. It's a bit tired in places but that's ok, part of the charm of staying in an old hotel. I found all the staff lovely and helpful and the room was clean, the Chamberlain did an excellent job. The breakfast was not very exciting. Coffee, juice and eggs, fried boiled or scrambled. A slice of cheese and a slice of cheap reconstituted ham came with the eggs. This is called an American breakfast. They could do better. If staying on a Friday or Saturday beware that music from street, shouting and cars honking go on all night. The hotel windows are single glazed and ear plugs are a must. The Bolivar is a charming hotel, I always aim to stay there when in Lima.

A Legendary place that is open since 1924 all the celebrities from Spain and Latin America were there, lots of actors and actresses from Mexico especially Maria Felix La Doña. It's a must-do in Lima Go for the Pisco Catedral

The place where Pisco Sour was released, although it came from Morri's bar. An internal bar in a large room with a terrace is a charm with all the glamor of a five-star hotel. A return to the past. It has a collection of old cars inside.

A hotel in the centre of Lima with a great deal of history. In the 70s and 80s it was the meeting place for the elite - stars were always coming and going. Since then, not much has been done or invested in. But perhaps this is precisely the charm of the Granhotel Bolivar. A visit to the museum!
