Friendly and clean Hostal. The owner Timothy and his wife try to be there for your needs. There is a huge kitchen area but it still stays very silent. What leaves us with a bitter taste is that we were offered a reduction for 3 nights of stay and in the end we had to pay the full prize. Also... More

The Worst Hostel all through my 6 months journey in South America!!! That's my story: I left half pineapple in guest refrigerator on the first day. I found it gone when I came back after a full day trekking on the second day. I was just unhappy, and requested to check the video and tell me the result later. But... More

We stayed 3 nights in a private room with private bathroom (55000) and one night in a private room with shared bathroom (45000). Both rooms were reasonable but got quite cold. The bed in the first room was soft with comfortable pillows whereas the bed in the second room was very hard and pillows were dead flat. The shared bathroom... More

We made a reservation at Plantation House hostel by phone and also by email only to find after a long day travelling that our room had been given away. The owners were unhelpful, rude and unapologetic saying that they had given our room away because we had not confirmed by 6pm (we arrived at 6.05pm). They seemed more concerned about... More

A nice hostel on the edge of the town. Only a 5 min walk but benefits from feeling like it's isolated. Quiet and tranquil. Good kitchen. Clean rooms and nice staff. They also run a fantastic coffee tour.

The Plantation house where we stayed for 2 weeks is an amazing place located close to the coffee farms with clean air an beautiful surrounding. The place is very clean and well maintained daily. The staff are extremely helpful and are always there to assist, some spoke very good English which is very helpful to those who do not speak... More

Plantation House is an excellent, chilled-out hostel on the edge of Salento, Colombia -- a beautiful, little village on the edge of the Andes Mts. Chris (Colombian) and Tim (UK), owners of Plantation House, (and their staff) are super friendly and informative. Their hostel is one of the best that I have encountered during my 4 months of travel in... More

Plantation House has several locations, including a small coffee finca down the hill. It's rambling, cheerful sort of place, full of lovely, gentle dogs, but facilities are no more than adequate. There is not enough light at night; the kitchen is seriously neglected. Far nicer hostel accommodation is available in the countryside just outside Salento, and hostales in the town... More

Plantation house is located within 10 minutes of the centre of Salento. Broken into two areas, separated by a road there are a number of differing rooms. The best being a 3 bed room with bathroom and fireplace!! The kitchen is excellent with good free coffee available all the time. There is wifi around the main area and the prices... More
