4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Lima

To truly immerse yourself in the city’s rich history and culture, a stay of at least 3 to 4 days is recommended. This duration allows you to explore essential landmarks, including fascinating museums, vibrant dining scenes, and lively shopping areas. You can enjoy cultural experiences such as dancing, visiting cathedrals, and appreciating local art in delightful cafes. Overall, this trip offers great value for money, ensuring a memorable experience without straining your finances.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To find affordable accommodation in Lima, start by exploring the Deals or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications to stay informed about flash sales and exclusive last-minute promotions, ensuring you don't miss potential savings. Additionally, use the Smart Shopping tool available in the app to compare hotel prices and amenities, so you can make informed decisions. With these strategies, you're more likely to secure a great deal for your Lima getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate due to various factors, including the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates could potentially help you save on your stay in a hotel in Lima. For those seeking distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and may offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we will inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price appears to be on the higher side, we will suggest alternative dates that could be more affordable, helping you to secure the best possible deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels situated near the city centre usually tend to be more expensive; however, with Lima's superb public transport links, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel located further out that remains well-connected.
