The Westin Hotel, Lima
More photosThe Westin Lima Hotel, located in the prestigious San Isidro financial district, is an architectural icon that opened in 2011. Designed by the renowned firm Arquitectonica, the building stands as a slender, crystalline prism. Upon its completion, it was the tallest building in Peru, and it continues to be a striking, modern feature of the city’s skyline.
The property is famous for housing the Heavenly Spa by Westin, which is recognized as the largest urban spa in South America, spanning an impressive 3,000 square meters. The hotel also serves as a major culinary destination, particularly through its restaurant Maras, which highlights Peru’s world-class gastronomic scene. For those seeking a bit of mystery, a “hidden” speakeasy called Alphonse Bar is tucked away behind a mirrored wall, accessible only to those who know the password.
The hotel is perfectly positioned for both business and leisure. It is within easy reach of the historic centre of Lima, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the vibrant coastal district of Miraflores. Guests are also close to significant landmarks like the Huaca Huallamarca, a pre-Inca adobe pyramid located right in the heart of San Isidro.
Beyond the local history, guests can enjoy a seamless mix of luxury and convenience. The hotel is attached to one of the largest convention centres in the country, yet it maintains a relaxing atmosphere with its indoor pool and sophisticated, warm interior design that contrasts beautifully with its sleek, glass-and-steel exterior.
Expert reviews
“For Westin’s first foray into South America, the chain went all out, bringing in an all-star team that included national brand Libertador, architect Bernardo Fort-Brescia, and interior designer Tony Chi. In terms of technology and sophistication, this is the most advanced hotel in the country, with smart escalators and electronics at every turn.”
“This 30-story glass tower offers an airy lobby and guest rooms, which have walk-in closets, marble baths with tubs and showers, and floor-to-ceiling windows through which you can admire the urban panorama. Upper rooms on the tower’s west side overlook the sea and islands in the distance.”
“Towering above trendy San Isidro, this hotel delivers 30 floors of high-level luxury. The views are vast, the interiors are exquisite and the cuisine is varied and delicious. Popular with business travelers and tourists alike, this hotel has its head and shoulders above the crowd.”

One of the best hotels in Lima
The beds are superb, the shower amazing, the quality of the dinner (salmon with yellow quinoa was the best).
They do not have GF, V, options. The almond milk was disgusting. Lost 15 minutes the last morning waiting for the kitchen staff to "see if they had GF bread"...

To stay here is to step directly into the imaginative world of an artist; the property is filled with his creative works, sculptures, and paintings, making it feel less like a standard hotel and more like a private gallery.
Fodors + 2 more“This 100-year-old Tudor-style house on a cliff overlooking the sea and surrounded by a sculpture garden is one of Lima’s loveliest lodging options. The sometime home and gallery of sculptor and painter Victor Delfín is a feast for the eyes, packed with art and backed by a sweeping ocean view.”

I did not stay at the hotel.
My husband and I are not Peruvian Residents but I do have a Peruvian Citizenship. We were about to pay for the stay but the Hotel wanted to split the bill in two for purposes.
