Scene
Luxury business hotel with a host of amenities
The luxury Swissotel Lima is situated in an 18-story high-rise with extruding reflective glass windows. With a multi-million dollar renovation in 2015, the hotel both updated and added spaces, including over 100 rooms, a new spa, gym, and interconnected indoor/outdoor pool with a beautiful wood patio. Decor throughout is traditional and well-maintained with a high-end business feel -- think leathery chairs, dark wood furniture, and marble accents. The restaurants are individually decorated with cultural decor, like La Fondue, which has cozy wood panelling and furniture imported directly from Switzerland. Due in part to its location, the hotel attracts a large number of business travelers, though kid-friendly amenities make this a reasonable choice for families, too.

Rooms
Spacious rooms with modern amenities -- but not all rooms were renovated
Swissotel Lima's spacious rooms and suites feature modern amenities and neutral color palettes, though decor varies from room to room. The 101 rooms the hotel added in its 2015 renovation are more contemporary, with beige patterned wall-to-wall carpeting, modern light wood furniture and paneling, and beige upholstered furniture. Suites can be particularly trendy with clean wood floors and modern geometric rugs. Rooms yet to be renovated are well-maintained, but they can feel a touch dated decor-wise, with dark wood furniture, neutral carpeting, and red upholstered armchairs. The bathrooms, though, are large with marbled tiling, huge vanities, and glass walled showers with tubs.Rooms include free Wi-Fi, LCD TVs, espresso machines and tea service, and minibars. They also have work desks with ergonomic chairs, electronic safes, irons and ironing boards, hairdryers, bathrobes, slippers, and free individual toiletries. Upgraded rooms add larger TVs, lounge areas, iPod docks, or, in the case of the Presidential Suite, a private whirlpool and sauna.
