- Lucie (8/5): Un écrin de verdure à quelques minutes de Barichara - Le jardin est magnifique. La piscine toute petite permet quand même de se rafraîchir. L’hôtel est un peu à l’écart de la ville mais c’est calme. Les hôtes sont très gentils et discrets. La cuisine n’est pas nickel mais c’est très agréable de cuisiner sur la terrasse

- JOEL ENRIQUE (10/5): - Excelente atención
- Alvaro (4/5): Disappointing - We were just staying for one night. The place has a nice garden, and the staff is super friendly. There is a common area with a small kitchen on the plus side.
Our room was a little dark and small which for us wasn't an issue since the area outside is quite spacious. Unfortunately, the place wasn't as clean as we'd hoped it would be. The walls and glasses in the bathroom, including the shower and mirror were dirty. The kitchen equipment and the refrigerator were very dirty and there was no clean sponge or cloth to clean up the cuttlery to be used at least.
On top of that, we noticed a very strong smell in the area of our sleeping room. We believe the cats peed in front of our door or possibly inside of the room which left an unbearable smell (despite thorough airflow in the room) and made it impossible to get a good night's sleep. Its important to mention that there is a construction site for extending the building behind the sleeping room currently working from ~7am to
~4pm on weekdays. We think that not letting us know about this is a lack of transparency. We went there expecting to relax, but unfortunately didn't manage to.
- Maurice (10/5): Five-star experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Spectacular accommodation, well appointed, well located, host Gilberto is charming. Five-star experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
- Allen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kelly (8/5): Nice place just outside town - Beautiful and quiet place just outside town. Very friendly owners, ready to help. Spacious and clean rooms with private bathroom and a shower with hot water. Good kitchen including fridge. A toilet seat and a lamp near the bed would have been nice. The kitchen was not always very clean due to some guests.
- Piotr (10/5): Exelent - Close to city, clean, quiet, beautiful view on mountains, owner always every morning give the coffe to drink, very fri3ndly. None
- Aurélie (8/5): Very good -
- Storyscout (10/5): Relaxing, comfortable accommodations in a beautiful setting. - The proprietors were absolutely delightful. Always friendly and attentive to our needs.
- Tayla (10/5): Really a wonderful visit. The owner was very warm, friendly and helpful. Beautiful garden and surroundings. Loved to be -
- Zorica (10/5): Exceptional - lt was bar far my best stay in Colombia. l recommend it 100 percent, the hospitality, the comfort, fully equiped kitchen, amazingly beautiful property and garden with mango trees, huge terrace on the first floor,. The hotel is on the outskirts of Barichara and that makes it extra special, you are staying in the nature, you can hear the sounds of crickets and birds. lf l come back, l would again stay here. Nothing.
- Olga (10/5): Exceptional - It's a small paradise just outside of Barichara, surrounded by luscious greenery and spectacular views. Very quiet and peaceful. A lovely terrace where you can sit and enjoy the views or a drink. There's a small pool if you feel like cooling off from the midday heat. It's a 15 minute walk to the centre of the village, but the views and the air are totally worth it. Very relaxing place The location is a plus and a minus at the same time. Depends what you're looking for.
The wifi signal in my room was weak, which gave me an excuse to work outside :-)
- Amy (10/5): Peaceful stay - What a beautiful and peaceful place to stay! It's located down the road ~10 minutes from town. On a large piece of property with no buildings around it means there are lovely breezes flowing through the property. The gardens are beautiful and there is even a plunge pool to cool you off after a day of exploring! The only thing to keep in mind is that you need to walk up a pretty steep road for a few blocks to get back into town.
- Grace (9/5): Beautiful surroundings with friendly staff! - The property is very well maintained, the rooms are nice, the people are very friendly. It’s a little walk out of the town, but so worth it. It was one of my bests stays! I didn’t like one dog, but once they knew they would put him on a leash or walk with me. You also can’t buy any beverages, might be nice to offer that to guests.
- Giuseppe (7/5): Good -
- Ricardo (10/5): Exceptional - Exceptional value for money, very nice place, small swimming pool, nice gallery upstairs with hammock kitchen and view 10 min walk from main plaza in rural area. Nothing
- Karen (8/5): Very good -
- Iona (9/5): Superb -
