About
Dragonfly Hostels Miraflores - Lima
Dragonfly Hostels sits on a quiet alley off Calle Tarata, in the heart of Miraflores. Guests consistently mention the convenience — a 600-metre walk to Parque Kennedy, restaurants and shops at the door, and a bus stop directly outside. The building itself is compact but well-kept, with a small patio, a common kitchen, and a rooftop terrace that many reviews single out as a favourite spot to relax.
Rooms range from 6- and 8-bed dorms to private doubles, twins, and triples, most with private bathrooms. The hostel is not a party place; the vibe is friendly and low-key, with staff repeatedly praised for their helpfulness — from arranging airport taxis to pointing out local routes. Breakfast is served at a nearby restaurant and includes pancakes, fresh juice, and toast, according to several guests.

What works, what to weigh

Strengths
4 reasons to book- Location that puts Miraflores at your doorstep — The hostel sits on a quiet side street yet is within a 600-metre walk of Parque Kennedy, with restaurants, shops, and a bus stop right outside. Guests repeatedly call the area safe and convenient.
- Staff who go beyond the usual — From arranging airport taxis to helping with a medical visit or finding volunteer opportunities, the reception team is praised for being friendly, responsive, and genuinely helpful.
- A rooftop terrace and kitchen that guests actually use — The rooftop bar and seating area is a recurring highlight, as is the clean, well-equipped kitchen. Fast Wi-Fi in common areas rounds out the practical comforts.

–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Shared bathrooms in most dorms — The 6-bed and 8-bed dorms have a shower but not a private bathroom; only the private double, twin, and triple rooms offer en-suite facilities. Guests note the shared bathrooms are functional but not a private option.
- Breakfast is served off-site — Breakfast is offered at a nearby restaurant rather than in the hostel itself. While guests enjoy the pancakes, toast, and fresh juice, this is a minor inconvenience for early risers or those wanting to eat in.
- Check-in window ends at 23:00 — Reception is 24 hours, but the official check-in time ends at 11 pm. Late-night arrivals may need to coordinate with staff, which could be a consideration for those on overnight flights or buses.
- No on-site parking and no pets — There's no parking listed at the hostel, so guests arriving by car will need street parking or a nearby lot. Pets are not allowed, which may limit some travellers.
