"I stayed two nights at this hostel, in a private room near the pool. The first night I had a ton of ants appear in the washroom, and the staff wiped them down and then sprayed insecticide when I pushed for it. Thankfully they moved me to another room for the following night. There was quite a lot of noise at night, as others have mentioned, but I think that was probably true of most accommodations in that general area. Overall, it was fine, and location was close to the Peru Hop meeting spot and many restaurants."

"Lovely Hotel and Perfectly Located Casa Paracas was exactly what I hoped for: a charming, cozy hotel in an excellent location, within easy walking distance of the waterfront, restaurants, shops and the Ballestas Islands pier. Communication before my arrival was excellent. Francisco personally worked with me to arrange check-in at a convenient time so I could go on a tour and not worry about my luggage. After meeting him, it was clear that this attentiveness was genuine. He was warm, interesting to talk to and clearly cares about his guests. My room was bright, exceptionally clean and very pleasant, with a small balcony and a sea view. The hotel also has several attractive sitting areas, so guests are not confined to their rooms and can sit around and chat or relax. Breakfast is served upstairs on a beautiful open-air terrace overlooking the water. I am not normally a breakfast eater, so I had coffee and pastry, but the full presentation looked spectacular and everyone around me appeared to be thoroughly enjoying it. It is a wonderful setting and was a great place to start the day. Casa Paracas was comfortable, welcoming and exceptionally convenient, with personal service that made the stay memorable. I would happily stay here again and highly recommend it."
