Hotel Rima Rima

Huaraz & the Cordilleras


The most comfortable hotel in town, Rima Rima has spacious rooms that don't lack light or color. The rooms at the back have great views of the Cordillera Negra, but there's a rooftop terrace with even better vistas in case you don't snare one. Management is very involved and can help out with advice and trip planning in the area.
