Excellent hotel if you want to be close to the nightlife in the city in an upscale and safe property. Amazing and accommodating staff. Very clean and comfortable rooms with a beautiful rooftop bar to view the city lights. My wife and I stay here every time we are in Medellin and it never disappoints.

Nice property, only issue was bar is on the 6th floor and I was on the 5th floor so it was loud. Stay on a lower floor if you can. But great hotel, definitely would stay there again. Super close to everything

I stayed one night at Hotel El Zarzo and had the most amazing experience. We landed at 9am and was allowed checkin shortly after because the room had already been prepared (ahead of the usual 11am check in) . At check in we recieved a warm welcome, 2 free welcome cocktails at the roof top bar and 20% of at the restaurant Cocina 33. The room felt like a spa retreat with soft dimmed light and aroma therapy scents, a fully stocked nespresso coffee bar, tea and water. Shortly after the staff brought up a tray of artisan desserts that were DELICIOUS and a hand written note expressing their excitement for our stay. Everyone and everything was so warm and welcoming, I can’t wait to return and eat delicious meals at Cocina 33 again!!!

El Zarzo delivered an exceptional experience during and, crucially, after my stay. The hotel is beautiful, well-kept, and located in a great location. The rooftop bar offered stunning views of the city and is a perfect place for a night cap after a day exploring Medellín. But what really stood out was the remarkable service the staff offered me after my stay. I had left a personal item behind, and Victor as well as the rest of the staff went out of their way to coordinate its shipment back to me in the UK, checking in with me daily to ensure its delivery. From the careful packaging to the seamless communication, the attentiveness was truly extraordinary. 5-star experience with a personal touch.

First of all you will be very impressed with the staff, all were very courteous and helpful. The front desk will help with all local arrangements. In my opinion their Restaurant 33 has the best food in Medellin. The rooftop bar is very pleasant and they make great drinks, the New York Sour was our favorite. The rooms are comfortable, the beds are big and very comfortable, fantastic shower. The only negative for us was the size of the closet. The neighborhood is safe, walkable with many, many restaurants and clubs and shops. We highly recommend El Zarzo.
