Cra 22 N.29B-29, 123457 Guatapé, Colombia –

Lock in a great price for Lake View Hostel – rated 8.4 by recent guests!

to get started.

Great hostel. Especially the Thai restaurant and bar! We also booked the hike to the waterfalls through the hostel (agency Getaway). Highly recommended!!

Céline, Belgium

The hostel is in a good location and is kept clean. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the food on third floor at the Thai Restaurant is very good. The breakfasts are also good but not included in the overnight price. The owner is friendly and helpful.

Sayward, United States of America

Everything else! The staff is great, the Thai restaurant is amazing, the beds are comfortable, the bar is lively & has great cocktails, and it's a quick walk to town center.

Kristin_nevius, United States of America

View was really nice, terrace was incredible, staff was always willing to help

Pablo, Colombia

The value for price is very good. The location, the good view, amazing food, and social atmosphere to meet other travelers. The kitchen is well equipped and local veggies are cheap. Overall its a great place, and I stayed for a week! I will probably be back in the future. The breakfast is also quite extraordinary. Its not much of a party hostel, so sleeping in the night is certainly comfortable.

Caleb, United States of America

It’s clean, safe, and the people are great. When you’re traveling in another country where you have a hard time with the language, finding a good hostel can save you just because of the contacts you make. Meeting so many other, even more traveled, people who can give you tips is how i live and die while traveling unfamiliar places. Guatapé is so much more than a day trip- there’s sooo much to see. I recommend at least a few days, and this is the perfect home base! 🖤 Thanks guys!

Kiana, United States of America

Nice place. Great staff and rooms were clean. If you like Thai food try the upstairs restaurant, delicious!

Jonathan, Panama

Price! Great value. Kitchen for cooking and spacious dorms with lockers.

Lia, Canada

The staff was so great, all spoke English which made it easy to get directions, arrange activities (they offer many) and the other guests were awesome. The bar was fun, we didn’t have the food but it was cheap & I didn’t hear complaints. Our single room was quite nice although got quite noisy since it’s right by the entrance. They did our laundry for cheap & it’s a 4 hour turn around. We made a group meal & brought in beers for about 15 of us & the front desk worker didn’t mind in fact he had a plate of our food, so nice! Our room and common areas were clean, they do have a dog which I loved but be aware if you are allergic.

“Nice place, great food, be sure to bring ear plugs!”

- • Bed in 8-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 3 nights

Sadly, they do not enforce any quiet hours, so the five dorms and private rooms around the common area on the first floor can be super noisy until almost 3 a.m., as it was this last night. Out of 5 nights I stayed, only 3 were good for sleeping. Thankfully, the kind desk person did give me half my last night's stay money back. Overall, I've enjoyed it, but those two noisy nights were miserable on the first floor. Maybe a second floor dorm would have been quieter.
The hostel is in a good location and is kept clean. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the food on third floor at the Thai Restaurant is very good. The breakfasts are also good but not included in the overnight price. The owner is friendly and helpful.

My only complaint is that the shower heads need some serious cleaning (CLR) because some water spouts don't work at all and others clump the water together. There is so much build-up of minerals that it is clogging or impeding water flow.
Everything else! The staff is great, the Thai restaurant is amazing, the beds are comfortable, the bar is lively & has great cocktails, and it's a quick walk to town center.
