Right in the middle of the happening scene of Miraflores, with the best restaurants, cofee-shops, art galleries, cinemas, parks, crafts markets, and night life... and best of all, within 5 mins walking distance from the ocean. A very convenient base, only 10 mins away from downtown historic Lima, and in a safe neighbourhood...
 

For the past 12 years our hostal has been the best kept secret of Miraflores. Its doors
opened only to our friends and the friends of our friends who arrived by word of mouth,
since we did not have a sign and were not open to the general public.
Since then, El Patio has grown. Although we remain small, we now have three
different types of rooms to accommodate our guests.
Our rooms (17 in total; 7 singles / doubles, 5 mini-suites; and 5 suites) open onto
peaceful terraces and a lusciously plant-filled patio where guests can sit and relax,
while listening to the birds sing and the water fountain trickle.
Our personality an charm delight those who want to avoid larger, more impersonal hotels. And we are always happy to guide and help our guests with tips and advise about where to go, what to see, and how to get there.
Our hostal is ideal not only for tourists, but all those who come to Perú with work obligations and need a relaxing and homey atmosphere in which to make interesting contacts such as experienced travelers, explores, researchers, teachers, archaeologist, anthropologists, newspeople and such, who choose us over and over again because of our quiet surroundings, great location, and warm, individual attention.

Sean Newson, The London Times:
"If you have a choice where to overnight in Lima you should go to the Hostal Residencial El Patio in Miraflores (singles from $30). There are plusher, better equipped hotels here than El Patio (for example the Cesar's Hotel, doubles from $166), but none that can match its urbane charm."

The Rough Guide.
"A very pleasant, friendly and secure little place right in the heart of Miraflores; often fully booked, so reserve in advance to be sure of a room."
