I had a wonderful experience at this hotel! From the moment I arrived, the hospitality was truly exceptional. A special thanks to Mr. Héctor and his carolina wife, who went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. They were warm, attentive, and incredibly helpful throughout my stay. The hotel itself was spotless – everything was impeccably clean and well-maintained. You can tell they truly care about their guests and take pride in what they do. It’s rare to find this level of personalized service and attention to detail. Highly recommended! I will definitely return.

Pleasant and comfortable edge of town small hotel

Stayed 3 nights. We had a reasonably spacious room with a Juliet balcony with partial view of the town and of the surrounding mountains. Good shower with plenty of hot water. Comfortable bed. However, no windows - only balcony door and room was rather warm with no fan or air con. Friendly helpful staff. Breakfast was ok but nothing special. Didn't much care for the dining area and there are no drinks or snacks available at the hotel. 10 min walk to main square - and Villa de Leyva is beautiful. Definitely worth a few days. There is also a small indoor pool at the hotel and a room where you can get a massage. Overall it was a pleasant stay.
