A sustainable boutique hotel in Medellin’s El Poblado neighbourhood.

Quinta Ladera sits on a quiet residential street in the lively neighbourhood of El Poblado and is a hotel with a strong sustainability ethos at its core. Its 20 guest rooms, decorated in a palette of muted tones, have a calming, minimalist aesthetic and feature works by Colombian artists and artisans. Some rooms offer private terraces with hammocks, while family rooms sleep up to four guests thanks to a mezzanine bed. In keeping with the hotel’s natural philosophy, there are no TVs or air conditioning.

Throughout the hotel there are multiple inviting communal areas in which to unwind after exploring Medellín. These include a comfortable lounge, a sun terrace, and a peaceful courtyard with a pond at the centre of the property. The hotel’s restaurant, Ganso & Castor, serves traditional French cuisine and is open for breakfast and lunch. Many of El Poblado’s excellent restaurants, cafés, and bars are within easy walking distance.

What our clients say

  • Colombia was superb. A wonderful variety of scenery and cultures, and people trying their hardest to live normal lives and welcome visitors very genuinely.

    JK, Basingstoke Mar 2014
  • Colombia is a fascinating country with very friendly people. It is opening up to tourism, after years of conflict, and offers the prospect of an exciting, varied and economic holiday. 

    JH, Chester Feb 2017
  • it was all very good For me, Colombia stands out as No.1 (I hoped it would be, even before I set off, and it was)

  • Our time in the South West (Huila and Cauca departments including the Tatacoa Desert, San Agustin, Popayan and Purace National Park) stood out. It was the most rewarding in terms…

    DE, Wilmslow Mar 2018
  • Our favourite organised trip was probably Cocora Valley. Absolutely stunning and the trek was tough, but well worth it. Our guide knew a lot about the wildlife and flowers too

    MB, Oxford Nov 2019
  • Highlights?: Salt cathedral at Zipaquira, Communa 13 in Medellin and the thermal springs in Purace NP
