Family backpackers is only a 5 minute walk from the beach in Miraflores. The beach has a nice view, but is not so good for sunbathing, swimming etc, though it is very good for surfers. The dorm rooms are fairly spacious. We stayed in the downstairs 7 bed ensuite, which was fine, but got a little loud in the morning... More

Loved, loved, loved this place. The staff were so nice, and helpful the guys on the desk helped us book further travel and made you so relaxed and the ladies cooked eggs each morning and were really sweet. Its a minute from the beach to watch a beautiful sunset and 10min walk to the supermarket, have reccommended this place to... More

We stayed here for 2 nights when we got to Lima and it was fab. Clean rooms, friendly staff, hot showers and an excellent location. Plus the breakfast was really yum! Would definitely recommend. More

We stayed at the hostel for 4 nights and had an absolute jam. Pisco sour nights are a not to be missed affair- I think they happen on Thursday.

Christian was extremely helpful. The... More

Thanks Family backpackers for everything. Lovely chilled out and comfortable place. Nothing was too much for family backpackers and was always told you´re one of the family´. Excellent travel advice, help organising buses and things to do around the city! Will stay there everytime I pass through Lima!! More

We waited for a good hour for our airport pickup, but it turned out to be just another taxi. He also refused to accept our quoted rate. We were foolishly already in the cab before we confirmed his price, so we ended up paying $20 USD (Green Taxi's posted rate is S/. 45 or $16 USD). Also, we got two... More

My boyfriend & I stayed here for 2 nights and loved it. Great location, great rooms, great staff and great coffee. We have nothing bad to say about the place and would definately recommend it. Some of the reviews here complain about noise, but it was very quiet and chilled out when we were there. Definately not a party hostel. More
