Casa de Aliaga
What the experts agree on
Lima's most exclusive colonial mansion near Plaza de Armas—built in 1535 and still family-owned—rewards the effort to book ahead with stunning period rooms and ornate interiors that belie its modest exterior.
“It may not look like much from the outside, but the interiors are lovely, with vintage furnishings and tile work. It can also be visited via organized excursions with Lima Tours.”
