3B Barranco B&B, Lima
Expert reviews
“Cool, clean and modern, this service-oriented lodging is a traveler favorite. A common area charged with Warholesque pastiche art leads to 16 minimalist rooms that feature plush heather-gray bed covers, flatscreen TVs and granite vanities.”
“Budget-conscious travelers appreciate this modern B&B’s sleek accommodations, convenient location, and reasonable rates. Guest rooms are simple but functional, with wooden floors, small baths, and cable TV. Most rooms on the ground floor overlook tiny atria, but those on the second floor are brighter.”

Perfect stay in Barranco
Staff were so helpful, kind, and fun to talk to-- the 24-hour reception was such a great perk, and they put together an informal breakfast box for me when I had an early morning tour. Maybel also helped me out with a taxi snafu upon my arrival from the airport, which I really appreciated. The rooms themselves were modern and clean, and the hotel has an AMAZING location in the heart of Barranco and delicious breakfast. 10/10 would stay here again!
No issues!

As a solo female traveler, I found the location and property to be safe and centrally located near the center of Barranco as well as two blocks from the ocean view path which is lovely for those early morning walks. The lovely staff members, Nicole and Elizabeth, went beyond their way to accommodate me from arranging an affordable and safe taxi service to keeping my luggage while I was in the jungle. Breakfast was made to order, as a vegan meal the avocado sandwich was delicious! Overall a great stay! Many thanks! Hope to visit again soon

We would definitely stay here again. It felt like home away from home.
The staff were exceptional. They were so very helpful and accommodating. It felt like family. We were able to leave our bags and still use the facilities after check-out. The staff provided us useful information about dining options and other city places. They even made us breakfast at 4:45am so we could take with us because our tour left at 5am. The room was clean and comfortable and hot water was abundant. There was a mini kitchen where we could use the fridge and make hot drinks or prepare basic food. The location was very good...only about 10mins walk to the bus stop. We walked about 25mins to Miraflores and it was only about 10mins from the center of Barranco.

Great location for us, very friendly
Elizabeth and her staff are super-friendly. Nice breakfast, from 6:30 am (we’re early risers).
Could have used drawers and hooks in our rather small room

The 3B was a wonderful hotel experience! Highly recommend it!
The breakfast was a treat. Especially the made to order eggs by Roxanne. The manager Elizabeth was wonderful! All of her suggestions on where to eat, where to shop, what activities were available and worth doing were SPOT ON! She never hesitated to offer a helping hand and her pleasant demeanor never wavered. If I return to Lima, I would stay at the 3B primarily because of her.
The listing by Booking.com had the wrong address, 122 Centenario instead of 130 Centenario, which caused the taxi driver to go to the wrong establishment. Oddly enough the correct address (#130) was on my hotel booking but NOT on the taxi transfer booking (#122). Also, we attempted to move our return to the airport up one hour. I tried going through Booking.com at first but the runaround with multiple forms to fill out and numerous DIFFERENT booking numbers was just too much! After two hours of futility going over the same loop we decided to dedicate all of our efforts to Master Tours, the company which provided the taxi. After another hour they finally called us back, something Booking.com NEVER did. Once connected it took two minutes to change the pickup time. Had we not done that we most likely would've missed our flight. I will NEVER book ground transportation through Booking.com again. VERY disappointing response or lack thereof on your part.The 3B

Great stay for a great price!
Stayed here twice during out stay in Cuzco. One night, we just needed the room for less than 24 hours. We were so grateful that when we checked in a bit early, the room was already ready. The staff is super great and very friendly!

Very good
Comfortable beds, clean room, good service/nice staff. No noise from the outside gets into the room, so if other guests are quiet (we could hear the other showers and hair dryers) before bedtime, it’s all good. :) Location is great. Breakfast was a bit small, but the lady serving it was great! Also loved the fresh orange juice for breakfast and tea + water free of charge throughout the stay.
The ordered taxi for 25$ was an Uber, not a „real taxi“ (the driver was very nice though). If you order your own Uber it’s about 12-13$. Only 2 power outlets in the bathroom for a triple room is not enough. We really had to do some time management with charging our devices and using the hair dryer. Towels are a bit annoying, as they are so fuzzy that it’s all over your clothes and on your body.

5 minutes to the most beautiful view
We can definitely recommend 3B Barranco. The location is perfect, in a quiet and safe neighborhood with small shops and good restaurants and cafes. It is only a 5 min. walk to the beautiful parks overlooking the Pacific Ocean, and 10 minutes to Puente de los Suspiros and Barranco center. Easy transportation to Lima's old town and Miraflores. 3B Barranco has nice modern rooms, good and comfortable beds, and lovely breakfast, where you can choose from dishes that are prepared on demand. The fruit salad was the best in Peru! Very helpful staff and personal service. We had our luggage stored at the hotel for free for a week. We can definitely recommend the place and would love to come back.
everyting was fine (:

A fantastic hotel with a great staff
A fantastic little hotel. This is a great hotel with and exceptional staff. The hotel is very secure with 24 hr reception. The room was big enough for a couple. The entire hotel was very clean. The bed was super comfortable and the shower was strong with plenty of hot water. The breakfast was very good and the coffee tea bar was a nice touch. This was one of the best hotels I have stayed in on my 3 month tour of South America. I would love to stay here again.

Phenomenal
Everything, but specially how kind, welcoming and warm the staff was. I felt really good there. The room was also bright, clean and big. Honestly, if I'm ever back, I'm going to stay at this place again. I urge everyone to stay here, if they can.
Nothing. Only my stay had to be short so I couldn't spend longer there.

Do not hesitate, just book here!
The best accommodation we stayed in after two months travelling! Exceptionally clean, comfortable and hospitable with the best facilities. Great breakfasts and coffee too! The host, Elizabeth, and all the employees were smiley, knowledgeable and approachable. The area was safe and easy to walk around, even after dark. I made an error with our booking, I booked the wrong month, but this was easily rectified, with humour too! Thank you so much, our stay with you was an absolute pleasure!

Great value, great location
This is a simple yet stylish boutique hotel in the heart of Barranco, the coolest district of Lima. The hotel is small but modern and clean. Rooms are very comfortable and they serve a very nice basic breakfast. I’ve stayed here a few times and the staff are very welcoming and attentive. Can’t go wrong for your stay in Lima!

Ideal for couples who want to be in a quiet peaceful b&b close to the action
Lovely and clean in the perfect location of Barranco. The staff were so helpful, especially as I’d accidentally booked the wrong dates. They sorted my partner and I out with our rooms with no hassle. So impressed!

I was greeted by the most friendly receptionist and felt safe with the front desk being open 24 hours/day. As a single woman this made me feel safe. The facilities were modern, chic and the art work was beautiful. It complimented the Bohemian vibe of the Barranco area. The room was spacious and clean and I had the best shower with the hottest water I experienced on my trip to Peru! I wish I could have stayed longer.
Nothing. It was perfect!

Best place to stay in Lima.
Perfectly located in Barronco. Close to everything. Clean, nice room, best showers I had during 4 weeks around Peru. Comfortable beds and super friendly, helpful staff that knows the area very well. Breakfast is great and if I come back to Lima this is where I'll definitely stay again. I also stayed in Miraflores, but I liked Barronco way better.
Nothing. For the price, I got everything I wanted.

The staff was just unbelievably nice, helpful and competent. No hotel I have been so far has had such good staff. 11 out of ten!! Location was OK, just 5-10 minutes from Barranco, which is a GREAT place to discover
No / undersized exhaust in the bathroom - gets VERY wet / humid in the rather small rooms.
