Hotel Dengan Spa di Quindio, Colombia

I only recommend the suites. They are located on the 5th floor, which seems a recently renovated (or added) part of the hotel. My room was modern and spacious. The bed was fantastic, as was the shower. I also enjoyed the jacuzzi and the sitting area. Breakfast was quite nice too. The hotel is located on a quiet street, but still close to hustle and bustle of the town centre, where all the shops and restaurants are. The standard rooms I saw in the older part of the hotel did not look appealing at all. Very small, very basic, and without windows. They only have ”windows” that open up to the central atrium. I was superglad I didn't book one of those, but chose to spend a bit more and end up with an excellent room.

Here's what you need to know about this place. The views are absolutely stunning. Unparalleled and you cannot get them anywhere else. It is clean and well-maintained, safe and serene. It's a very cool experience- it was clearly a house and has been turned into a hotel. We stayed on the first floor and it had a little shared patio that looked out on the valley. All rooms have a great view, but I wish we would've booked the second floor where there is a private patio. You MUST rent a car- we almost didn't and if you don't, it will be a real pain to get to and from the hotel to do anything- it is not near anything (and this was not made clear to us beforehand). Breakfast is included, but it is very minimal. There are no other meals offered, so you will have to get yourself into town to get something. The staff was kind, but not super helpful. The hot tub and steam room and sauna are so-so. The hot tub was quite dirty when we went. We wanted to get in after our hike, in the early afternoon, but it was never communicated to us that there is no hot water during the day, so it was a luke-warm bath (not super enjoyable). The sauna was nice enough. This place has some serious potential, but the effort just isn't quite there. If they offered drinks or dinner it would be so nice and if there was more communication that would help- about renting a car, getting to town, hiking the valley, etc... (I can't imagine what we would've done if we didn't have our own car). Overall, I would say it's an incredibly affordable place to stay, just make sure you have your own means of getting in and out. Although I didn't give it 5 stars, I would still recommend it as a place to stay for anyone coming to the Cocora Valley. This hotel could easily be a 5 star hotel with some improvements.

Muy buen hotel, ubicado, en una zona tranquila, cerca de 2 de los mejores centros comerciales del lugar. Nos hospedamos 4 noches. Buen servicio de desayuno, muy elaborado, delicioso y completo. El jugo de naranja 100% natural. El restaurante del hotel tiene un menú variado y muy rico. El personal que atiende muy bueno. Las habitaciones son amplias, limpias y de buen confort para descansar. El baño con buena presión de agua caliente. La atención al cliente, en lo que es reservaciones está en el rango promedio. No obstante la gente en recepción es súper amable y colaboradora. El Internet es muy bueno. Lo recomendaría. Y nos gustaría volver. La mejor opción al visitar Armenia.

Habitaciones muy espaciosas y cómodas. No usamos la cocina pero parecía que tenía bastantes utensilios. El baño correcto y la ubicación también, a 10 mins de la plaza de Salento. El mayor inconveniente es que no ofrecen desayuno. Bonitas vistas.

Great hotel, stayed several times, checkin always slow, but they get there, but very helpful with bags and room and help with anything else, lobby is nice with cafe/bar adjacent to lobby, lovely barrista. Rooms are spacious, beds very comfortable, very clean, bathrooms also very clean, WiFi is pretty good too. Maid service excellent and friendly. Restaurant on 3rd floor always has nice food, breakfast is also very good. There is also a rooftop bar and pool that you can eat at. Pool and jacuzzi is lovely, with great views of the mountains and city. Free parking too, very affordable. Will come back again. There are few nice bars and cafes on the street near by Cafe Quindio, La Fogata, La Estación Del Crepe and an excellent mall, 15 min walk Portal del Quindio, lovely park too, Parque de Vida, small entrance fee. Airport 30 min away, public yellow cabs/taxis are reliable and affordable.
