Fausto
Intimate residential guesthouse. Contemporary Peruvian design layered over preserved 1920s neoclassical architecture. Warm, social, and personal rather than slick or corporate.
Book the Grande room — it's significantly more spacious than the other categories and includes either a freestanding soaking tub or a private sitting area
Why It Matters
One of only two Andean properties in Lima (the other being Atemporal in San Isidro), Fausto is the urban anchor of Andean's celebrated Southern Peru Travesia circuit connecting Arequipa, the Colca Canyon, and Lake Titicaca. The property is listed on Tablet Hotels and consistently earns near-perfect guest scores for service and atmosphere.
Fausto is a six-room guesthouse inside a 1920s neoclassical townhouse on a quiet, tree-lined street in Miraflores — one block from the coastal Malecon promenade. It's managed by Andean, Peru's premium boutique hotel operator, and the whole place is deliberately designed to feel like staying in a stylish friend's home rather than a hotel. The communal sala (living room), always-open kitchen, and rooftop terrace create a genuinely social atmosphere. No pool, no spa, no gym — what you get instead is hands-on, personalized service and a beautifully curated 100-year-old home.
Where You'll Stay
4 room types available
Grande
Positioned at the heart of the property on the first floor, the Grande room is the one to book. Ample windows play natural light games throughout the day. Two distinct configurations: one features a freestanding soaking bathtub that guests consistently rave about; the other has a cozy sitting area. Both have king beds.
King · 27 sqmGrande Familiar
A slightly larger variation of the Grande at 29m², the Grande Familiar features a separate bedroom and cozy private sitting area — ideal for those who want a bit more lounging space after a long day in Lima. Has a street-facing view for a glimpse of neighborhood life.
King · 29 sqmMediana
Bathed in natural light thanks to a high-arching doorway that opens onto a private terrace overlooking the neighborhood. The terrace is a real differentiator — you get your own outdoor pocket of air and street-level Miraflores views. Queen bed, good light, and a breezy feel.
Queen · 17.5 sqm
Pequeña
The most compact option at 12–15m². A double bed, desk, and chair — not much else. Honest: it's snug. But the common areas (sala, kitchen, rooftop terrace) more than compensate if you're comfortable spending time outside your room. All the same amenity standards as the larger rooms.

On Property
How you'll actually spend your days.
The ancient pre-Inca adobe pyramid of Huaca Pucllana is a 19-minute walk from Fausto. One of the most accessible archaeological sites in Lima.
The staff's deep knowledge of Miraflores and Lima is a genuine activity in itself. They provide curated restaurant lists, museum tips, and insider neighborhood suggestions — including spots rarely found in guidebooks. Some staff members have been known to personally accompany guests on their first evening out.
Fausto is one block from the Malecon cliff-top boardwalk overlooking the Pacific Ocean. A 5-minute walk puts you into the parks where locals jog, walk dogs, and bike along the scenic coastal edge.
As the Lima hub for Andean's signature Southern Peru Travesia circuit, Fausto staff can help plan and connect multi-property journeys through CIRQA (Arequipa), PUQIO (Colca Canyon), and Titilaka (Lake Titicaca). Particularly useful for guests starting or ending a larger Peruvian itinerary.
