Arvum Hotel Boutique

Perfect for couples Amazing view and the jacuzzi topped it off Food here was amazing both for breakfast and dinner. They cater to you and even bring the food up to your room. The staff here were incredibly helpful and kind. Any little questions we had, they were onto it asap. We had a very early flight and they were incredibly kind enough to have our breakfast sorted that morning. They provide reliable and quick transport to and from airport (recommended). I hope you all have the pleasure of meeting Felipe and his family when staying over at this gem of a place.

The hotel is located right on a ridgeline leading to stunning views across of El Penol and the valley below it. Minutes away from El Penol and the town of Guatape, it's an amazing place to stay in between exploring. Everything we ate & drank was absolutely spectacular. I loved that their breakfast was made to order, not stuff cooked in advance and left hot for customers. Their breakfast is absolutely amazing for how simple it is. Their dinner items are even more amazing. And don't even get me started about their dessert options. Everything no matter what you order tastes to fresh and good for you. Felipe was absolutely the best person we met during our entire trip to Colombia. He took care of whatever we needed to the best of his ability and made us feel like we were family. You'll honestly forget you're at a hotel and think you're just hanging out with family. This is probably one of the best experiences I've had traveling around the world so far.

We stayed one night at the property - it was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend this hotel! First, shout out to the manager, Felipe! Felipe is not only a great manager, but also a very warm and welcoming host. Every interaction with him was like speaking with a new friend! He was very helpful to answer any of our questions or book excursions, including booking a tuktuk to explore Guatape & a driver/car to drive us to Medellin. He even helped me with my Spanish and was more than happy to do so! He also gave us a great tour of the hotel, which includes the avocado farm, orange trees, and future additions to the property. He and his dog Mara were wonderful, and we would go back even just to see them! The hotel itself was beautiful. At first, when we were pulling up on a bumpy road, I was hesitant about the place - but only for a moment! It is a pretty new place, extremely clean, and very very comfortable. The main outdoor restaurant seating area was peaceful and beautiful both in the day and the night (when the sky is dark and the lights turn on). We had an amazing view of the landscape, including La Piedra. Our stay was extra-special, as we ended up being the only guests! One of the highlights was simply relaxing at the restaurant in the evening having wine, reading a book, chatting with Felipe, all while taking in the view and the stars. Speaking of food - it was delicious! Every ingredient was fresh, and the produce used was grown on the farm. We ate every meal there, and it was always great. Felipe would even pick the oranges off the tree for orange juice earlier that same day! The hotel has a location that is close to La Piedra, the center of both Guatape and El Penol. And, you can definitely do further activites as well. Part of me wants to keep this place a secret, but it was such a great stay that we would highly recommend this hotel for others.

We really enjoyed our stay. Very spacious, well decorated, we has a great view. We would definitely come back and recommend this to anybody!

The excellent customer service, great location, and premises. The food was amazing. I recommend it 100%.
