Find Hotels in San Gil, Colombia

We read a lot of good reviews about this hostel and some odd ones as well. Overall, our experience there was superb. We were greeted by a bubbly attendant named Ricardo who explained everything and got us sorted. We stayed in room 6 on the second floor with 4 beds and a locked door. Below I’ll list the pros and cons. Pros: Amazing location. It is located right on the main square and you can walk to any place for food or anything. Nice staff- Felipe and Ricardo were both very nice and helpful. Filipe helped us to book our rafting excursion and Ricardo just happened to be one of the safety guides for the trip that day. Felipe also helped us to book our bungee jump and night bus to Santa Marta. Ariadna worked nights during our stay and she helped us with recommendations and was always so kind! This hostel is a winner for sure. We never felt uncomfortable or out of place. We were even allowed to shower after checkout before our bus because the hostel was “our home for the time we we

We moved hostels in San Gil to Bacaregua, so glad we did! Felt comfortable and one of the roommates. The staff makes you feel comfortable and very knowledgeable of the area. As well as more than happy to give suggestions on plans and things to see and do outside San Gil. It is a little bit away from the town square. But, well worth it a 3 minute walk for the comfort over a 1 minute for a party hostel. Affordable, very clean, wonderful staff. So much so we stayed an extra 4 days at the hostel because we loved it there and San Gil!

I planned to spend 2 nights, ended up staying 11. What a lovely place. Great withdrawal away from the tourists. Brilliant vegetarian food made with love by the owners. Daily fresh salads from the garden. Good location between San Gil and Barichara (all bus drivers and taxis know where to find this place). Outdoor showers. Public kitchen. The beds are comfortable and made of bamboo. Old bus turned into movie 'theatre'.

We had a room with a balcony over the street which allowed us to air clothes, etc. There was very little street noise provided you get up by 8am. No breakfast officially but we were brought juice, snack and coffee to our room each day. The street is quite steep which could be a problem for those with respiratory problems but we had no diffculties (and my wife has crutches). The staff were helpful and always available.

Very nice and welcoming staff. They tried their best to not only make my stay comfortable, but also made sure if my day-trips go smoothly. Even though I didn’t book my trips with them (which I should, the price is the same if book with them, and there will be free pick-up from the travel company). The rooms are very clean. Liked the hammocks on the roof. Location is good. Pretty quirt which is perfect for a good night of sleep. Will definitely choose them again.
