I don't normally stay in hostels, but this time my friend convinced me too and i had an amazing time! This hostel has great service, a full bar, commons area, kitchen, warm water. Everything you need! It was very safe and in a perfect part of the city!

We arrived from Ica on a Thursday night (over Easter Long Weekend). The plan wasn't to stay in Lima but to go on to Huaraz, however we missed our bus...problem is, Lima's heavily booked up during Easter week. So we got dropped off by the taxi near Parque Kennedy, and I'm familiar with Lima and a number of hostels. After... More

I stayed here by myself for five nights in a large dorm. Flying Dog rotates their staff from their several hostels and the two guys at the front desk during my stay weren't as friendly or easy going as in other hostels during my month in Peru. My only interactions with them were behind the glass window and I felt... More

My main reason for writing this one is because I arrived there unannounced and unfortunately there were no rooms available at either of there hostels. The person at the counter was super busy but made time to ensure that I had another place to go. I have relatively no Spanish up my sleeve and he ensured I got to where... More

One of my friends & I travel to Lima & Cusco over the memorial had holiday in June 2012. This was my first experience staying at hostel and got what was expecting.

I often travel to Lima, and over the years Flying Dog has been my backpacker hostel of choice. This is due to several things: the decent rooms, friendly and helpful staff, good facilities and most importantly perhaps - a great included breakfast at one of the outdoor cafes in the Parque Kennedy. I recommend this place, and will no doubt... More

I was very sorry that I spent a night there and then for the price of almost 35US$. But it was more like an emergency, that's why accepted. But beginning with the price, the shower was full of ants and there was at least 2 cats running around (problem if you are allergic), the shelves were dusty, no closed, the... More

I am here in Lima to study Spanish. I was lucky enough to stumble upon the Flying Dog Hostel. There are a few locations in Lima - I am reviewing one at the corner of Olaya and Diagonal. For s/75 ($29. in 2012), I have my own private room with shower. It's quite roomy. The third floor has a great... More
