What a gem of a hotel. Daniel was super helpful and even gave us great suggestions for resturants and places to hang out. The rest of the staff from the front desk to the bartender at the rooftop are all great as well.
The rooms are beautiful and spacious with really nice bathrooms. The hotel is even better than the pictures.
Great location, walking distance to all the fun.
Great rooms great staff wonderful experience. The location is perfect tucked away from the Main Street but walkable to everything. The room was really spacious.
Really cool vibe at this hotel. The rooftop bar has spectacular views and the food/cocktails are excellent. We almost felt guilty eating here too often because while we wanted to check out other locations, the food here was so good! (Try the club sandwich. It is excellent). The staff are really excellent, they go above and beyond to make sure you're taken care of and this is a pretty quiet hotel for El Poblado.
Hidden gem in Medellin. Very cool property and the rooms were spacious and spotless. Great location with walking distance to the night life but tucked away. The staff was great and helpful, breakfast was included. This hotel is great for couples or solo travellers. The room was designed to have a very high end feel with great finishes. We can’t wait to come back.
