This charming and dignified old building is roomy and aloof, lazing by the sea and espousing a laissez-faire life philosophy that’s a welcome reprieve from Chimbote’s buzzing streets. Upstairs, 76 spacious rooms and three suites are decked out with the essential mod cons and bathtubs; some come with a view over the trawler-filled bay.
It has a decent restaurant and bar.
