This hotel is in a far corner of the Getsemani neighborhood, super walkable to the walled city. It has good bones and the potential to be such a gem, but felt like the whole place needed a good scrubbing from floor to ceiling. We did love the pool- small but clean with a nice bar area. Staff were helpful! Breakfast wasn’t the best we had in Colombia- average. Overall, a pleasant stay. Also a note- we are a family of 4 with school aged children. This neighborhood had many bars and there was music pretty late into the evening. Not the hotel’s fault, but something to consider in choosing an area to call home base.

We stayed at the Armería Hotel over Christmas and had a wonderful experience. Luis and Reinaldo were incredible—so helpful, welcoming, and attentive throughout our stay. The hotel itself is very nice and perfect for families. The massages were fantastic, and the breakfast staff were amazing every morning—always kind, helpful, and cheerful. The bathrooms are a bit dated and could use an upgrade, but they were still comfortable. Because of the warm weather, we did have a small lizard in one room and a large beetle, but the staff handled everything quickly and helpfully. Overall, the service truly made the difference, and we really enjoyed our stay. We will definitely be back!
