A very humanized hostel with a lot of backpackers, nice rooms, free breakfast, good warm welcoming atmosphere. Very close to all the good places in Miraflores, restaurants, beach, bus stations, parcs. Very good quality vs price

I stayed here for a while and it was awesome, super friendly stuff, clean rooms, excellent Wifi-connection and located close to everthing!I spend unforgettable nights at the "magic desk" and the Manager was always good for a joke or a beer!Totally recommendable place...I will definitely come back someday!!!

The staff were friendly enough, though when I asked on check-in whether there was wifi, they said yes, knowing it was broken (it turned out there was another signal that worked, weird). My room smelled like old carpet (probably because it had an... old carpet) and no amount of keeping the window and door open could change that. On the... More

At 32 soles in a 4 beds dorm I initially thought that it was reasonable. The temperature of the hot water for showering was however totally inconsistent and it really made a good shower difficult.

From outside it looks gorgeous and safe. But that's all. Despite the good location (Miraflores neighborhood, near Park Kennedy) this hostel is a shame. The rooms were filthy and a complete mess. The 2 bathrooms I used were even worse, trash cans overflowing w/ toilet paper and the shower space full of hair, disgusting! The private rooms are extremelly expensive,... More

I stayed here for one night and now I prefer to move on. The hostel is ok, makes a safe impression from outside (huge fence and locked gate) and has nice, comfortable common rooms. Some things though I did not like. The fridge is too small for a hostel as big as this, and is in a filthy state. The... More

I have stayed twice at the Lion Backpackers. I would go back there.

This hostel is fine (secure, clean etc) but is nothing special. The staff are pretty unfriendly, with the exception of one woman, and the private rooms are ok but very small. There is a breakfast of bread and a banana included in the price. It seemed quite pricey but I think that is generally the case in Miraflores.
