I spent one night in Hotel Monte Real. The staff was nice and the rooms were very basic- nothing fancy. We asked for one queen and we got two twin beds instead, a small TV and a safe. The room did not have a heater and it was quite chilly at night. The breakfast is basic- eggs, toast, tea or... more

We stayed at this hotel through our travel agent-Explore. We were stolen from. The safety box was locked so the over helpful bell boy unlocked it. When we were out in the day we were stolen from that safety box. Manager denied it so did all other staff but police said they thought they knew who did it but wouldn't... more

Staff were very unaccommodating. Basically we got put there with only a couple of days notice when the pre-booked hotel cancelled because of some meeting of Pacific Rim leaders. So you would have thought the Monte Real would have taken advantage of the opportunity to demonstrate to the tour company that it was the place to stay. Unfortunately for them... more

I am a seasoned traveler and this hotel is one of the worst I have ever stayed at and I have stayed at hotels for less than $5.00 dollars a night. VERY noisy, the rooms are filthy, there were food reminants all over the bed spread, I pulled the covers back to expose hairs and fluids on the sheets, I... more

I stayed here with a family member for three nights. We found it to be clean, well located and budget friendly. While we had a couple of small problems with our rooms, they were quickly taken care of. The staff was always helpful, especially the porters. We really enjoyed the bar for the happy hour each evening where we would... more

We stayed at this hotel for only one night. The staff at the check-in counter was impolite. The lobby was dark and shabby. Rooms were reasonably spacious and well lit. However, there were several things that we found unacceptable: 1) no hot water in the shower, 2) broken window lock, 3) no way to open or close the safety box... more

We had 3 nights in this hotel and luckily we were upgraded once we complained. We were advised by our tour company that we would be staying in 3 ~ 4 star accommodation. On arrival at this hotel our family of 3 was placed into a tiny double room with an extra bed rolled in. We were not able to... more

The Monte Real Hotel was an adequate hotel for an overnight stay in Lima but nothing to write home about. The lobby area is small, dark, a bit outdated with old marbled flooring. The rooms were clean and did have a fridge. The breakfast buffet was rather disappointing as they seemed to only scramble 3 eggs at a time and... more

We were there for 3 nights in early March 2006 as part of an Overseas Adventure Travel tour. We had been scheduled to go to a different hotel but several people forwarded to OAT some postings complaining about that establishment—and they switched to the Monte Real. The Monte Real is clean, pleasant, not luxury but with nice touches including a... more
