Oyster Review Summary
Photos and Review by Oyster.com Investigators.
Pros
- Rooms are large with nice touches like fresh flowers, massive flat-screen TVs, and iPod docks (and many with park views)
- Great meal options include Peruvian-fusion and Japanese restaurants, and 24-hour room service
- Sunny rooftop pool with nice views
- Business center has free coffee and cookies
- Extra perks include fitness center and beauty salon
- Free Wi-Fi in public areas
Cons
- Some room furniture (such as the dressers) are a bit dated
- Pool patio shows some wear and tear
- Fee for in-room Wi-Fi
Bottom Line
The 134-room Sonesta El Olivar is a high-end choice in the upscale residential neighborhood of San Isidro. Aside from its safe, walkable location, the hotel stands out for its long list of on-site amenities: a fitness center, a salon, a business center with free coffee and cookies, a spacious rooftop pool, two tasty restaurants, and 24-hour room service. Rooms are large, with massive flat-screen TVs, iPod docks, minibars, and fresh flowers (a nice touch), but the beige-heavy decor -- with some dated furniture and sparsely adorned walls -- isn't as luxurious as one may expect from a four-pearl hotel.
