We loved the place. It is very beautiful and green, and we wish we could have stayed for more than one night. The scenery is amazing. We will definitely book again and recommend it to our friends. Breakfast was normal. There was a pool but we didn’t use it.

Terrible experience...

The hotel was disappointing and the staff was a nightmare to deal with. Totally unhelpful, and to anyone planning on booking and paying through Hotels.com or an Expedia partner -- or probably any other website -- be prepared to pay a huge additional cost at the property when you check-in. You will pay here on the website when you book the reservation, and then the hotel will charge you separately for your room, on the basis that Expedia only charged you to make the reservation. They will also do everything in their power to make you pay the 19% tax that is only supposed to be charged to Colombian residents. Oh, and Hotels.com/Expedia won't help. The rooms themselves resemble those in hostels. This is not a special occasion hotel, this is an everywhere-else-is-booked hotel.

I booked and did a prepaid reservation via Expedia for this property for my husband. I received an email confirmation showing that it was fully paid as well as verifying the funds were withdrawn from my credit line. When my husband, who was not feeling well in the first place arrived he was told that the reservation was canceled… even though we have a fully paid receipt from Expedia from the hotel. He ended up having to pay again just to get in a room to get some sleep. I reached out to Expedia for resolution, and they said they were unable to reach the hotel as the office was closed. I hold both Expedia and the hotel responsible for the situation and once he checks out I will work via my credit card for resolution. I have been in the travel industry for over 30 years, and currently work at an airline and part time at a hotel in the front desk capacity. There is definitely a mistake here and no one wants to be responsible. I have never had such a bad experience with Expedia. I am not at the property, but my husband said the staff was uncaring, on empathetic, and unprofessional.

Mucho por mejorar en lo administrativo.

El check in terrible, es un problema el pago si no realizas el pago con tarjeta propia, ojo con reservar por la página, cuando llegas te hacen otros cobros adicionales además, la habitación que reservas no es la misma que te dan, el check out a las 12 muy temprano, el hotel hermoso, la comida deliciosa, la vista demasiado linda, el personal que atiende amable y educado, muy buena atencion la piscina muy sucia.

Pésima atención al cliente, no recomendado

Pesima experiencia. El hotel realizó un cargo indebido a la tarjeta, a lo que me comuniqué con el administrador y prometió arreglar lo sucedido y nunca mas volvio a contestar mis llamadas, todos los dias envío un correo y nunca me responden. Haré la denuncia ante la SIC, pero recomiendo no tomar este hotel. Hay muy buenas opciones cerca.

El acceso al hotel desde el principio fue problematico, y durante toda la estadia del hotel adiccionalmente tenia una reserva por otra plataforma y apenas llegue al hotel, comunique que la reserva era inviable con el fin de informar de que la tarjeta que estaba de respaldo se habia vencido y que las fechas establecidas no eran correctas. a lo que la recepcionista del hotel nos dio el visto bueno. pero dias despues nos realizaron el cobro.

夜、12時過ぎに到着したが、スタッフがホテルの前に迎えに来てくれた。泉の景色が綺麗。 ピエドラデルペニョールまで、当日お願いして、船で送り届けてくれた。ホテルでは、通貨両替不可。 ホテル前の道が工事中の為、５分程度足場の悪い上り坂を歩く必要がある。チェックイン前に部屋の窓が開いていたので、虫の死骸が1匹転がっていた。 シャワーのお湯がなかなか出ない。お湯が出たと思ったら、１分しか持たず、また冷水が４分ぐらい続き、そのパターン繰り返し。
