La Hacienda is located a short taxi drive away from the busy San Gil, it was such a welcome break from all the noise after a few nights in town. Jane and Felipe are incredible hosts that will make you feel right at home since the minute you walk through the door. There are many spots around the property to sit back and relax and enjoy the views and tranquility. I cannot overstate this one enough: although there is a fully equipped kitchen available- don’t waste your time cooking, have Jane and Felipe prepare your meals!!! After months of rice and beans on the road (we’re vegetarian) their meals were like godsend. Jane’s spectacular curries, lasagna or falafel accompanied by Felipe’s freshly made pita, flatbread and garlic bread are reasons enough to go, I promise! Let’s not forget the pizza…. my mouth is watering just writing this. I cannot recommend them enough!!!

No complaints after my week spent there. Wifi was reliable and strong. Hostel was kept very clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The dog was so sweet. Very good prices on the laundry service, snacks, drinks and restaurant food. They offered a Christmas Eve meal that was classy and delicious. Chill out area in the back and lots of information for those who wish to do activities around town and in the region.

The hostel is very clean and well managed but the best thing is the staff that is extremely helpful and kind. They are very knowledgeable about the surroundings of San Gil and helped us a lot in organising all the activities we wanted to do. Super recommended!

My 2nd time here and it’s amazing! Everything is cool, safe and cozy. You need to come here if you are going to relax mentally. Far from the city, from the crowd. The journey may seem long, but it's worth it. This is a place for lovers of peace and quiet Thanks to all the people who make this experience so incredible.

Stayed in the Trip Hostel in San Gil, and like that one, was very happy with my stay. Small hostel compared to the one in San Gil. Some services like breakfast are the same, but this one lacks a pool and bar. The kitchen, however, is open to guests unlike in San Gil. The room was much bigger and offered storage space for my clothes etc. Very clean. Wifi was fast and generally reliable. It would drop for a few seconds on occasion, but very likely a problem with the service provider being in a small and rather remote town, rather than the hostel. Run by a very nice and helpful family on behalf of the owner.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This was one of my best Hostel experiences in 6 weeks of traveling in Colombia. Jane and Felipe go above and beyond to ensure that you enjoy your stay. I felt very welcome from the beginning. Their dogs are super sweet, too. Food is delicious. 100% recommend this place! :)

    Amazing staff, Viviana, Wiltor and Diego were all really nice and helpful with organising activities and just in general. The activities organised through the hostel were with companies that had good safety standards so worth the money. The hostel is in a great location, is clean and great value for money. The amenities are really good and they organise events in the evenings which is great to get to know people, one of our favourite hostels in Columbia.
