Botánica Casa Hotel

We only got to stay one night at Botánica but we plan to stay there again when we return to Medellin. The room with one double bed was just fine for us - me, my husband and 7 year old. There was even a little desk. The staff was super friendly, the breakfast fantastic, the location amazing. You can walk to the metro and across the street is a vinyl listening bar plus tons of food options everywhere. Yes the room is small (but we have stayed in smaller) so if you really need a giant room then maybe find a fancier place and you’ll pay a lot more because most hotels/hostels at this price in the city have smaller size rooms. We loved Botánica, for the location, decor, breakfast, price and overall vibe. Loved how the place feels and is decorated and how friendly everyone is. Sorry we couldn’t stay longer.

It was a great experience. The place is gorgeous and the staff incredibly friendly and welcoming. The area is surrounded by restaurants, night life and a great atmosphere. We loved our stay there.

Important to clarify that this is actually a guesthouse and not a hotel. My room in particular was not the best. Small bathroom and no natural light. It was next to the living room and kitchen, so you would hear other guests chatting and using the facilities at most hours. Location and breakfast staff were good but it’s important

Great staff, great location for Poblado area. Easy walk into Poblado or down the metro station. The breakfast included is very good with lots of fresh juices. The staff couldn’t be nicer.

The rooms could be a little loud. Street noise or noise from other rooms could be heard for light sleepers.

Great place and Service. Confortable and nice. Great location,

Great location, great decor, great breakfast! Very comfortable!!

Excellent and central location that was super easy to get to and from. The staff were exceptionally friendly and very helpful! Would highly recommend if staying here if you’re planning on visiting Medellín.

Honestly it was a great stay. If you are looking for somewhere incredibly quiet this might not be for you as the location is quite central. But we didn’t mind as it was exactly what we were looking for.

Absolutely wonderful boutique hotel! Lovely little house in the middle of el Poblado. Could not recommend this more. The staff is soo friendly, so helpful. The breakfast is incredible and gets make every morning by the lovely ladies. The wifi works super well. The place is cozy and feels like a home. You get to meet people from all around the common areas are super comfortable. Would highly recommend!

Nothing I didn’t like

Excellent location within walking distance to the metro and lots of lovely restaurants and cafes. The place was spotless and the kitchen was well-equipped for cooking. Breakfast was substantial, with three different options. Special shout out to Nora who was lovely and very patient with our limited Spanish.

Bathroom was very small (tricky for my tall husband) and poor soundproofing of the rooms meant you could hear other guests. But generally at night it was fairly quiet.
