Great place and the staff is super friendly.

inka lounge
Inka Lounge, Ramon Zavala 341, Miraflores, Lima
has just been taken over by new owners Lilly and Grimmy who are amazing ' they both speak english too and are amazing help if you need some tough phonecalls made. Space for bikes without panniers at the side behind locked gate - with panniers straight in the front door. Very relaxed and quiet. Doubles for 20 dollars which is as cheap as you can get in Lima ' single beds from 8 dollars I think.

Hotel Las Palmas
Few of us stayed here back in er late 2004 (maybe) - $25 (ish) gets you a smart if bland double room with all the tee vee, phone, bar, restaurant mod cons. Free secure parking in the courtyard.
Hotel Las Palmas, Calle Bellavista 320, Miraflores, Lima. Just off Parc Kennedy, and conveniently close to the well-recommended mechanic at Desert Racing.
Suerte, Dan Walsh

Lima
FYI,
I am now in Lima and had a little trouble finding a bike friendly place.
Flying Dog no longer has room for bike although one of them has a private parking lot next door. Private rooms are expensive.
INka Lodge first told me they would charge 5 usd for parking but when I got there told me there was no charge.
However, INka and Flying are seem very noisy and are really backpacker places, imho.
I eventually found a place called Home Peru at 4501 Arequipa walking distance to Park Kennedy. They have a nice big garage, free internet including wifi and very friendly.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
