I was so glad to get the chance to stay at Del Cielo. Tomas is an inspiring guy who is going to (and has done) amazing things for La Loma. The area feels like a home away from home, so incredibly safe, I got a bit lost one evening, and I was walked back to the hostel by locals. So kind. It's super easy to jump on the local buses and get to the metro, it's not far from all the places you want to go. Ubers learn something new everything time they go there, seeing it's a great place to live and stay and that people want to visit and stay in La Loma. The hostel itself is super friendly, and everyone is lovely. Lili, the kids, Tomas. When I was there, there was an empanada cooking class, and a barbecue where everyone got involved, and got to know each other. Lili gave me some salsa tips, and I learned about Call Me Mamá. What a great project. Each day I was there, there was a new piece of equipment added to the kitchen, a conscious effort to constantly improve. The View!!! Breathtaking, day and night!! Impossible to grow tired of. I think this hostel is going to grow in its success and popularity, and I wish it all the success possible. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND STAYING AT THIS HOSTEL FOR AN AUTHENTIC Medellin experience. ❤️

It's a nice low key hostel, with very friendly staff. I was planning to stay here for a week, but ended up staying for two months! Highly reccommend if you are looking for a place that is social, but not too social, not noisy at night, and that has very friendly staff. Orlando and Ginny especially are amazing hosts.

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 hostel is definitely the best hostel we have stayed in during our trip around South America. It felt like a hotel and our room was cleaned every day which was so lovely. We also did the fruit tasting and cocktail making class during our stay which was so good and exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend staying here if you are going to Medellin. Great location near to all the tour pick ups and loads of nice restaurants close by to choose from. The restaurant for breakfast was also really good. I just can’t fault it.

Great location, safe and very clean hostel. They clean the room every day, offered shower towels + towels for the pool. In this building there is a small gym, heated pool on the rooftop and laundry - while in the other building is where all activities and parties happen. Better to stay in this one and go there whenever you feel like socialising. Quiet at night, comfy beds with curtains.

This is probably the best hostel we have stayed at in our time through almost 50 countries. The facilities were great, we had laundry delivered back to our room the morning after we put it in. There was lots of information about different tours, which were all easy to book at the travel counter. The room was massive, the bed was so comfortable, the shower was amazing. It is on the edge of El Poblado so it's only a short walk to nightlife but being a few blocks away means it's safe and quiet. I would comfortably live here!

Great location which is about 10 mins from metro, easy to get a taxi to the bars, restaurants in walking distance, but most importantly very safe! Shops about 5-10 mins walk away too. The hostel has great kitchen facilities which are kept very clean. We had a private room which was large/spacious and had a nice bathroom.

The Hostel has a great terasse as a public common area. The kitchen at the terasse is hugh, so that is a very comfortable place to cook. It also is a great Co-Working space or just to hang out. The area is very chilled. The Hostel is located next to some sport courts so that it seems like a quite safe area. It is close to Laureles, a good area to stay in Medellín. The people staying there were open and friendly. They are offering a cheap laundry service.
