    Our favourite place!! Thank you to German, Kevin and the rest of the staff for such a great stay. We loved the room and pool, and found the staff so helpful and kind. Thank you for the tip on how to get to Cartagena, it was so straight forward thanks to you! Would 100% recommend here.

    The owner, his son and all other staff were very kind and helpful. The property has everything you would need, it’s clean, comfortable, has a a small gym (there is a new big gym about 2 mins walk from the property also), the breakfast is excellent, drinking water is available during the day and the pool is well kept and clean. Overall excellent place to stay.

    Nothing. Thanks so much Herman!

    Herman and staff were so welcoming. We are a large group of 14, we showed up with reservations for 12. No problem, he quickly added 2 extra beds and made us feel right at home. And, that's just it, the place is really comfortable and has several areas to hang out. Peaceful jazz and ragae, a wonderful vibe.

    Leon Feliz Of all my years travelling I’m Not sure I have come across a better host than German. His hospitality at Leon Feliz was so friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our conversations just as much as the hotel itself Nice pool , good breakfast and only a 10min walk to the beach. He also gave us great restaurant recommendations and organised tubing for us aswell, Getting stuck on the Rio dirt road and chatting football was a trip highlight Thanks again Jack and Teresa See you in London sometime !

    Great place, i spent over a week there and could have easily spent more. Lovely property, family run and friendly, great to have a pool and breakfast. Very nice room and well located, reliable wifi. The Colombian/British owner makes a special effort to make you feel welcome and is a great guy. Recommended!

    The best breakfast I have had in Columbia, the rooms were exceptional cleaned and all the staff were lovely and really kind. I wouldn’t hesitate in booking here if you want somewhere comfortable, clean and chilled that is close to plenty of restaurants!

    the only small hiccup we had was finding the back entrance late at night but the owner fixed this straight away by putting a sign up the next morning - so issue solved! :)

    quiet and peaceful, great location and we had a huge room on the upper floor with a balcony so felt very secluded and private. the owner is very nice and helpful, the breakfasts are great, drinking water available, nice pool area to relax in. we extended our stay and didn’t want to leave!

    Nothing! (Btw there are no cashpoints in Palomino and you need to pay in cash)

    This is an exceptional property in Palomino! Charming room, en-suite and communal areas. Plunge pool was very appreciated, and there’s even a small gym with equipment. The breakfast was really excellent. Staff were so kind and always helpful. The location is on a central street but away from the strip so quiet at night.

    I just feel a safe in the room would help, but I must add the hotel has a very secure feel about it. I have bad eyesight so better lighting in the bathroom to aid with my contact lenses The above would only make this hotel excel beyond its near perfect status as a affordable hotel to relax in

    The hotel was very new and as a result everything was impeccable. The room was large with a comfy bed and very good bathroom . The outside area is maintained to a high standard and very child friendly with a small but great plunge pool Herman the owner was such a great host, more than helpful and welcoming. 👍👍👍👍

    The hotel is in the perfect location, nearby the main road where buses to Santa Marta stop, in the heart of Palomino, next to the street which leads to the Caribbean sea. The hotel is very cozy and comfortable, we loved the privacy provided by staying in a room on the second floor, accompanied with a fan, a balcony and a hammock. The breakfast was AMAZING, these were the best eggs with tomatoes and onion we've tried in Colombia, and we loved the big bowl of fruit! The staff and the owner are very friendly, we also enjoyed that the owner speaks English, and there's a place which makes amazing pizza right outside the hotel. We highly recommend staying here and already wish to come back!
