For the price, it's a hard combination to beat.

For couples in search of a quiet, romantic retreat in Miraflores, this bed-and-breakfast housed in a neocolonial, Italian-accented home is paradise. Built in the early 1900s, the property had been what Peruvians call a quinta (a group of dwellings built around a central patio), and the current owners have preserved the old-timey ambience with plush bedding, cast-iron tubs, and antique furnishings that evoke the Miraflores mansions of yesteryear. The gracious staff makes every guest feel like family.

Bright, comfortable rooms, a convenient location, and competitive rates make this hotel a good option for travelers who like high-end amenities but don't want to pay a fortune for them.

Superior rooms on the building's western corner, with twice as many windows and ocean views, are worth the extra money.
