I had an amazing stay at Hacienda Venecia. Blanca and her family were very kind to me and made me enjoy this place. The coffee tour was also a great experience and I hope to come back again soon to spend more time in this beautiful countryside.

I have not words to explain it. Everything from start to finish was damn super good. From entrance it doesn't seems that huge up above on top. They have almost everything inside the property, if you want to spend time in the property itself. They have made sure that visitors can enjoy right inside , if they want to. Pool Game facility, PlayStation and what not. Common areas are spacious and comfy with lots of facilities and the owner's passion for details and to take care of every type of person is clearly visible. So, close to the the cable gondola station with a very short taxi ride. It is also at a walking distance from a huge main church. Its actually centro area of the the city and is very lively all day and evening. And, lastly the price for the stay is unmatched. Wonderful.

Very good as a hotel! The best low-cost hotel room I found in Manizales. For the money it was a pleasant stay, facilities a bit old and the room wasn’t big but everything worked perfectly.

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, just moments from one of the best sunset spots ever! Comfortable room. Shower was great. Nice to have a decent equipped kitchen. Communal areas were also good with a lovely Roof terrace. Host was super welcoming (sorry I forgot your name!) and very friendly. We felt very welcomed and comfortable in your home. Thank you for having us!

    Really cute house run by a nice family. There are multiple rooms in the families house. It was a really nice place to stay after 4 months of traveling in dorms and hostels. Great to recharge and rest and have quiet and privacy. Location right by a beautiful look out strip. Amazing sunsets. Close to everything you need.

    We stayed in both the hostel and the lodge,very different reviews for both areas. LODGE We really enjoyed this,the hacienda is stunning,completely surrounded by nature. Dinner was delicious and was in a very homely setting. The coffee tour was worth it and very informative. The staff were very helpful and booked our buses/taxis. The hacienda was definitely one of my favourite stays in all of Colombia.

    I think this hostel was the best hostel I've ever stayed at! The staff is supernice and helpful, the common areas are extremely spacious, comfy and welcoming. The room was also amazing. The beds are 1,20m wide, there is a locker for every bed and every room is assigned to one bathroom. The kitchen is fully equipped and breakfast is included and super delicious!! I'm actually trying to find a reason to go back to Manizales so I can stay in this hostel again. :)

    Great location surrounded by beautiful nature and a wide variety of birds - perfect for relaxing in the different pools and for enjoying the outstanding food. The personnel was very friendly and accommodating. They also offered a free tour through the cloud forest with a lot of information about the kolibris and several plants.
