Frommer's Review
This incredibly grand, lovely, and sprawling hacienda-style hotel, built in 1927 and wholly refurbished in 1998, is a swank and character-filled place to rest your head in Lima. Although it appears large, the hotel is actually very cozy, friendly, and low-key. Rooms -- all of which are suites, with separate work areas -- are large and very luxurious, with tons of antiques and old-world appeal (although they don't skimp on modern conveniences). Many of the huge marble bathrooms have large Jacuzzis and separate showers. A member of The Leading Hotels of the World, it is ideal for just about anyone, including families, but it is especially perfect for stressed-out business travelers who've seen one too many blandly elegant hotels. Public rooms are very refined and inviting, with chandeliers and very high wood-beam ceilings, a close approximation of a local nobleman's estate. It's not surprising that the hotel hosts frequent social functions. There's live music Friday and Saturday evenings in the elegant restaurant, and afternoon tea is served to the accompaniment of live piano music. Appropriately enough, the Country Club Hotel sits next to a golf course and tennis club (guest privileges included). The hotel is pretty fairly priced for this kind of luxury and service; it also offers very good corporate rates, and packages and special offers are often available (check the website).
