Be careful this hostel is very dangerous, once you come here you can’t leave anymore. Everyone is AWESOME here especially Sebastien and Kate.

Everything. Very big and spacious, lots of hammocks and beautiful pool area with bar and great seating area. Could not be any better. Lots of Salsa music and teachers were amazing. Always events every night with the hostel and local Caleños will take you to the local spots. The party bus on Friday was amazing! Hosted by Carlos and Kennedy. Can’t wait to go back.

Everything was fine. Not great, but really fine! Bar prices were quite good. Free salsa lesson was a lot of fun. Other than that, it is a good location to go and explore the great city of Cali.

Lovely pool and bar. Great all round hostel, definitely recommend. Only reason it’s not 10/10 is staff

Roger

Loved this property. Location was ideal and I felt fairly safe walking at night. The pool was amazing, I felt so spoiled. The rooms and bathrooms also stayed pretty clean. The outdoor space is nice and makes it pretty easy to meet people, but then the hammocks are also available for a more secluded option. Also enjoyed the free salsa lessons and food tour.

The people (really all of the staff) and especially the salsa teachers are amazing, very professional and good at teaching (I took some private classes from Jeniffer, who Is amazing as well!) I strongly recommend taking private classes here! This is also a great place for meeting people.

Nothing at all. The music was extremely til late night. The worst room I've ever rented,. No AC,, the room was unsafe. The only ventilation was a 4 ft window that could have been easily breached by a criminal. If you closed the window you suffercate.

Dorms are comfy, public areas are awesome with yoga and activities every day, location good too. Free salsa every day + options for private lessons

I stayed in el viajero for almost two weeks and I really enjoyed my time there. I took a few private clases (ivonne and jhony are amazing) and became friends with the teachers. The staff there is really nice and friendly. Breakfast is good, pool and bathrooms are clean, hammocks are great. Always nice guests around and you can really feel that everybody is interested in salsa or at least music at all. Highly recommended!

It was very expensive in the whole for a small individual room, with a not very comfortable bed.
Breakfast was pretty good, with a choice of sweet and salty stuff. There are free salsa lessons and shows.

Most of the rooms are located really close to the pool and bar area, where all the parties are held, so if you want to have rest until midnight, it might be difficult.
Located in the San Antonio district, which is probably the safest in Cali. Really enjoyed the atmosphere inside - rooms are named after the popular salsa singers, there are nice pool and hammocks to chill + free daily salsa classes are included!

I had a really great salsa teacher. His name is Bryan. I would recommend everyone to take private salsa lessons. It's cheap and a lot of fun. The hostel is nice and really clean with good breakfast. I've met there really cool people. It's a perfect hostel for people who are traveling alone.

“Fantastic place to learn salsa and explore Calí”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 2 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Calí gets hot, and our double room was in full sun all day. While it was well-insulated sound-wise (we never heard a peep from our neighbours), the thick walls trapped all that heat. We kept the window open and the fan on but it still felt like a sauna most of the night. Not sure if air conditioned rooms are an option at this hostel but we could have used one in our room. We would still recommend El Viajero regardless.
This was an ideal place for us to stay in Calí. We were able to walk safely to great restaurants only a block away from the hostel, we took a fantastic street food tour that started at El Viajero, and we enjoyed taking a free salsa class there. The room was comfortable, the vibe was social without being too crazy or forced, and the staff were lovely and helpful (especially Victor and Lina on our last day). A dip in the sparkling-clean pool after sweating up a storm dancing salsa was an added bonus.

The hostel is simply amazing. You have a pool, a fully equipped kitchen, a bar with great drinks and Carlos as the best bartender. I booked 3 nights but ended up staying 4 weeks, mainly for the salsa and the amazing staff. Everybody is lovely, helpful and it felt like home. The dance teachers at the hostel are incredible. It’s so much fun to learn from them and to practice everything at night in the clubs.

I was attacked by bed bugs and the manager didn't give me a full refund. I had to argue to get back even one night. They have signs everywhere saying they're free from insects which isn't true. They have a fumigation scheduled so are aware of the problem but still allowed people stay in the wood beds and refused a full refund. The staff said that i could have brought them with me!
