The hotel is located in a nice/safe area. The staff was 100% attentive, 100% nice. The hotel itself is a quiet, Sophisticated building. The only two things I wished the hotel had was a gym and a lobby/lounge area for the guests to hangout.

Excellent hotel with kind and accommodating staff. We feel so grateful to have found this true gem in Medellín. Look no further for the most perfect hotel. Do consider upgrading to a bigger room, as the added space and bathroom is totally worth it.

Love this hotel. It beautiful and the room was really nice. It is in a great area with plenty of restaurants. The only downside is that they don’t have a gym, but that’s ok because the staff, location and the design of the hotel made up for it. Highly recommend this hotel and I will stay here again.

Prime location, top-notch service, and a rooftop bar that could easily become your second home. The staff at the hotel and upstairs were walking encyclopedias of food, drinks, and local tips. Now, about the neighborhood… let’s just say it’s alive. If you’re a light sleeper like me, you’ll hear the city’s heartbeat all night long. At the end of my stay, I noticed earplugs on the table — mystery solved. Next time, hand those out at check-in and watch your guest satisfaction soar. Noise drama aside, the stay was a hit from start to finish.

Excellent hotel if you want to be close to the nightlife in the city in an upscale and safe property. Amazing and accommodating staff. Very clean and comfortable rooms with a beautiful rooftop bar to view the city lights. My wife and I stay here every time we are in Medellin and it never disappoints.

I stayed one night at Hotel El Zarzo and had the most amazing experience. We landed at 9am and was allowed checkin shortly after because the room had already been prepared (ahead of the usual 11am check in) . At check in we recieved a warm welcome, 2 free welcome cocktails at the roof top bar and 20% of at the restaurant Cocina 33. The room felt like a spa retreat with soft dimmed light and aroma therapy scents, a fully stocked nespresso coffee bar, tea and water. Shortly after the staff brought up a tray of artisan desserts that were DELICIOUS and a hand written note expressing their excitement for our stay. Everyone and everything was so warm and welcoming, I can’t wait to return and eat delicious meals at Cocina 33 again!!!

Incredible

There's a reason this place has such a high review score. Everything about it is incredible. Felipe at the front desk is so friendly (and all the front desk staff addressed my by name as I came and went), the room was so trendy, comfortable, and perfectly quiet, the food was delicious, and there is no better location. If this was scored out of 100 they wouldnt get a 99 from me, they'd get a full 100.
