Located in Guatapé, 4.4 km from Piedra del Peñol, Eros Hostel & Brunch provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a bar. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a children's playground. Guests can have a drink at the snack bar.

Very nice place. The owner is incredibly sweet and accommodating. You have a nice little 3 bedroom 4 bathroom house with well equipped kitchen and central sitting area, and a patio with lounge chairs. Or you can hang out up at the restaurant terrace and enjoy the pretty little view. Beds are firm but comfy, the showers aren’t overly hot, but good and clean, and the jacuzzi more than makes up for it. I loved spending mornings and evenings in the jacuzzi. In the mornings you have a chance to see the beautiful Barranquero Andino birds that come to visit. I saw 2:) The included Breakfast was great, many choices, and everything I meal I had to eat here was so delicious. Also some nice and reasonably priced craft beers and other bevies at the bus bar/restaurant. The location is easy to get to and from as it’s on the main road….a 3000 peso jeep ride to the drop off at La Piedra, and a little more to Guatapé or to El Peńol town. Not a very walkable location, the shoulders are tight, best to jeep it. If you decide to stay elsewhere, come at least for breakfast lunch or dinner and have a crepe:) So good!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location and very comfortable accommodation and safe! It’s not the usual hotel, the keys are on the door and you speak with the host via WhatsApp. He is very attentive and always answers right away. The room was very clean and comfortable. There is a shared kitchen space as well as washing machine and dryer. Just a short walk to the beautiful town of Guatapé. Absolutely stunning views from the patio of the hotel! Definitely recommend it!

    Best hostel I've stayed in for the whole month I've been in Colombia, really lovely social vibe, not a party hostel but great chill out spaces where everyone hangs out, really friendly. Staff are also really helpful with advice and the location is beautiful.

    just a 20 minute walk away from the busy town, in the beautiful backcountry of guatapé lies this gem of a backpacker hostel. if you search for a chill, easygoing place with good music, nice vibes, bonfires and down to earth, kind-hearted people, you will find it here. you can slackline, play guitar, play oldschool video games, hang out in the large area around the house, buy handcrafted things and chocolate, be creative in lots of ways, go for short but adventurous hikes, and have a good time all around. great diy/all together spirit.

    I ended up staying one more night in the hostel for the people and the beautiful place. I felt very safe. If you have a lot of luggage I advise just taking a TukTuk to get there. Without stuff we walked to town several times.

    Hot shower with good water flow. Great location (central but quiet). Super friendly and helpful staff/owners. No noticeable road noise. One of the cheapest places to stay in Guatapé.
