The Point Backpacker’s Hostel considers itself Lima’s “original party hostel,” a joint immensely popular among the international backpacker set. It is relatively new but becoming well known due to its lively, welcoming atmosphere. There are a number of entertaining extras here, such as a bar, ping-pong table, Nintendo, and more, that you don’t find at every

youth hostel. The nightly organized events and convenient location near some of Lima’s best nightlife guarantee an enjoyable stay.
