Estelar Recinto del Pensamiento Hotel

Clean room. No air conditioning, but it was not needed Friendly staff , overall, it was a great experience

Como siempre, sitio tranquilo, agradable, buen clima y muy buena atencion por todo el personal del Hotel y restaurantes

If you want breakfast go early (before 9:00am). When the hot food runs out they don't refresh it.

Habitaciones pequeñas y sin conexión a corriente

Excelente atención, personal sumamente amable y dispuesto

Las habitaciones son muy sencillas, el entorno es espectacular. El restaurante muy bueno. Falló el servicio de agua, pero pronto lo solucionaron

Huge hotel, nice for the people that want to be in a quiet place.

Great

Es un hotel muy tranquilo en medio de la naturaleza, queda en las afueras de Manizales. Productos Loto del Sur en el baño, muy rico y variado el desayuno buffet. Las personas que trabajan en el hotel fueron siempre muy amables y atentas.

Nice place to stay for a few day while we were at the BMX racing.

En general muy bien El cuarto tenía un olor a humedad para revisar

Great service!

Peopld front desck very kind

Buen lugar para hospedarse

The surrounding area were of location it’s a hectic busy traffic area.

Love it

Espectacular. El hotel es perfecto para descansar.

We had to wait for the check in, because there was only 1 person at the counter. Later we were asked to pay the VAT. The reason why was explained in a rather unclear and condescending way, as it hasn’t happened in any other hotel prior. Facilities close at 6pm, which is very early. The rooms have no AC so it’s quite hot inside. Rooms are also small. The area outside the hotel is very nice.

Un lugar muy agradable con unas instalaciones amplias muy apropiado para convenciones y reuniones de negocios.

Wonderful location. A little odd that it’s a headquarters for Juan Valdez coffee but they don’t serve it in the restaurant

Nice and beautiful

Wilson en recepción es un caballero, atento y educado. Merece una mención. El desayuno un fracaso. Sin detalles. La atención de David muy buena en el comedor.

Muy bien. Se atendió oportunamente nuestras solicitudes o requerimientos.

I enjoyed my stay. The employees were exceptional. They never seemed to bothered to help. If you stay there, do the 1.5hr Nature Guided hike.

I like everything but most interesting the people are very kind.

Tuve la habitacion 17, desde las 5:50 Am el ruido era terrible los dos dias que me quede, la cama muy incomoda, el desayuno normal. El lugar es hermoso, como hotel no lo recomiendo, aunque los trabajadores muy amables.

EL paisaje muy agradable y las caminatas

My wife and I are pictures taken here is a very beautiful place

Marvelous and unique retirement place just a few minutes North in Manizales....this is BY FAR your place to go if you want a quiet and relaxing getaway. The staff is way beyond friendly and corteous, always willing to assist in every need; restaurant serves great food and the spa (included) is totally recommended. My gamily and I will totally come back here soon!!

The view

The room was comfortable and the turkish bath was enjoyable. The hotel itself is rather impersonal.

Genial el hotel, super recomendado

Very nice hotel outside Manizales.

Very nice and convenient spacious and very clean

El Hotel Estelar Recinto del Pensamiento es sin lugar a dudas el mejor lugar para la desconexión total con la bulla y el ajetreo diario de la ciudad. Está ubicado a 11 kilómetros del centro de la ciudad de Manizales en un lugar privilegiado: un bosque de 190 hectáreas donde hay colibríes, mariposas, pájaros, bosque de niebla y aire limpio por doquier. Las habitaciones son cómodas y limpias. El baño es amplio y limpio también. La atención de todo el personal del hotel es de una alta calidad y calidez. Audalises, en el restaurante, atiende de forma espectacular. Al igual que sus demás compañeros. La carta del restaurante es amplia y exquisita. Y los precios no son exagerados. Es la primera vez que me alojo en este hotel. Pero NO será la última. Disfruté a pleno la semana completa que lo habité. Y desde ya quiero volver a este lugar encumbrado en las montañas vecinas al Nevado del Ruiz.

La estadía fue excelente. El sitio es muy tranquilo y relajante. Mucha naturaleza. Los espacios muy bien organizados. Las personas muy atentas y pendientes. Precios de acuerdo al nivel del hotel.

MUY AGRADABLE, ESPECIAL, ATRACTIVO, TRANQUILO, APACIBLE.

Lugar tranquilo, amplios espacios exteriores, excelente ubicación para la zona industrial. Para trabajar buen internet aunque hace falta un poco de iluminación en las habitaciones.

Excelentes instalaciones, muy buena atención pero les falta promocionar más sus tours ecológicos.

La habitación muy estrecha, no había nevera, ni vasos, tocó llamar al restaurante para solicitar bebidas y vasos. El desayuno espectacular, el lugar hermoso, wl aseo y limpieza impecable.

Excelente Hotel en un sitio espectacular en medio de un complejo de empresas con muchas alternativas

Excellent Hotel; the are where is located is quite nice and calm

A pesar de las limitaciones de seguridad, fue una estadía increíble! El lugar paradisiaco, la caminata y las telesillas súper , maravilloso el GUIA Leonardo Las habitaciones muy buenas obvio q falta mas ambiente a todo el hotel pero comprendo q es por la pandemia q no pueden decorar mas En general delicioso el paseo

El hotel está en medio de un bosque tranquilo y hermoso. En la noche vimos un zorro! Muy recomendado!

Maravilloso, es un sitio muy romántico y alucinante.

Very good place , it’s really quite , its a place highly recommended

Las habitaciones son pequenas y muy pegadas. Se podia oir el televisor en el cuarto adjunto. Area comun muy bonita, areas verdes y vista en el hotel excelente. Desayuno simple, comedor pequeno.

Mooi complex met gied restaurant. Vriendelijke service. Kamer dicht bij receptie is wel lawaaierig

Me gusto en si todo el lugar, las inctalaciones, el hecho de que tuviera un Cafe dentro del recinto es muy bueno. No me gustó una pasta que comi en la cena, era muy plana, sin sazon, regularmente me pasa eso, en hoteles muy bonitos la cocina no resulta ser buena.

Muy bien, excelente hotel

sehr schönes Hotel am Rande eines Naturparadieses, Toller Service, gutes Essen.

Es increíble

Tv signal was very bad. Tv in room was very small. They didn’t have ice. small access to fridge since they don have fridge in the room.

The hotel is quite removed so if you didn’t rent a car at Localiza (Cable Plaza Mall), you’re out of luck if you want to leave at night. Nice facility with steam room, jacuzzi and massage services. No hotel bar, one restaurant in a different building and no minibar in the rooms. Good for one night to try an untraditional locale.

El Lugar es muy bonito y tranquilo, le falta más a las habitaciones no hay nevera en las habitaciones sería mejor cortinas ingresa mucha luz y hay mucho ruido en los corredores

super bien, aunque cuando llegamos vimos que la reserva para dos solo la habían confirmado en la aplicación para una persona.. Pero el personas fue muy amable y pudimos solucionarlo

The environment is extraordinary, the serviced at the restaurant was ok but everything looks outdated

I went with all my family and we all love the tranquilly and our surrenders

This is a great place to get away from the busy lifestyles that many of us live.

Spent an enjoyable three nights on recent trip to Manizales. Days were spent visiting nearby sites ( Los Nevados , RIo Blanco, ...)

Staff was friendly and accommodated when needed help.

Lovely hotel with Great surroundings. The tour around the facility is a must and it is well located if you want to visit the nevado del ruiz. The only problem to be aware of is that it is located at the outskirts of the city, so you have to drive if you want to go out for dinner or similar.

I´m looking for relax and this hotel was perfect, near to city if you want or need to go there; but its too quit and absolut silence

Would have been a nice stay except for an event on Saturday night. Loud, Super Loud music from the pavillion until 2:00 AM. We booked this hotel because it is advertised as "Natural, Tranquil and Restful". If you are seeking a quiet, peaceful stay avoid this hotel on weekends.

The stay was good. The staff of the hotel are persons very kind

Fantastic setting... peaceful.. great place to relax

We was recommended to another hotel del otoño much more expense and went we try to make a reservation was very impossible, so, we look for another place to be, I went to the internet them I found this hotel Recinto del Pensamiento ( I will tell you this was the truth, the name translated to our language ( The Place of mind ) a place to relax and enjoy at same time, the price reasonable the help and the service I well said the best, regarding room, restaurant and the most amazing view and the ecology, animals, birds, flours, plants, fish and the most the trip to the ecology tour were you learn all the proses of coffee and the conservation of the ecology. The guide, a person with a lot of knowledge and the respect to the persons to hum she was guide, she was very explicit and very clear on her explanations, her name miss Laura Alejandra, to hum I recommended as a guide. t

the activities offered were closed during my visit :(

I was surprised with the hotel environment, the cleanliness and the peace that we get once in the hotel. My wife really love it, it was a memorable experience. We plan to come back to the hotel later on.

I was surprised to discover that the hotel was located very far from Manizales. Because of the location, it was difficult to find food outside of the hotel and i was forced to eat several meals on location. The food was perhaps the worst food I have ever eaten. I opted to include the breakfast buffet at an additional charge and was deeply dissatified. The juice tasted like dirty water, the eggs were runny, the yogurt had a think layer of crust on top and was served warm. I ordered a salad at one point for room service and all the vegetables were left off and it did not come with any dressing. The spaghetti bolonaise was perhaps the most terrifying meal I've ever eaten. I won't go into detail. Lastly, the hotel claimed to have hot water but it did not. The shower was brutal and cold and the room had no heat. Thus, I did not shower. I really hated this hotel but if cleanliness is your main concern, this place is certainly clean.

Recinto del Pensamiento is a gem of a hotel....Setting is beautiful....staff is friendly and helpful....grounds are beautiful...saw deer, birds, orchids, white heron....grounds are beautifully landscaped and the natural beauty that surrounds the hotel is breathtaking....close to town by taxi or cab....close to coffee region....breakfast, which is included is plentiful....i would highly recommend this hotel for a unique experience...

THAT HOTEL WAS BAD . NO HEAT,NO AIRCONDITION IN THE ROOM.THE ROOM TOO SMALL ,AND THE REST TOO FAR FROM THE ROOM.

We were so well treated here! This hotel has a bit of a corporate feel to it because it is co located with the ground and buildings of the Federation of Coffee Growers of Colombia. hence there are many meeting Buildings etc. But the extensive grounds of both are lovely, including the 3km nature trail and the small zoo. The rooms are very modern and new. King size bed and great new bath with excellent showers. Great water pressure and hot water. This hotel is a great. choice for nature lovers. There's an excellent on site bird guide (Julian). Lovely area with hummingbird feeders. We can't say enough about reception Worker Orlando, who speaks English and really went put of his way to help us in the 5 nights we stayed. Wilson also. Reasonable price includes breakfast buffet - great fruit, eggs, beans and rice, cereal. We also ate most dinns and a few lunches in the hotel restaurant. Not much atmosphere, but the food is very good and the menu includes something for everyone. Restaurant staffers Antonio and Carlos were super kind and helpful to us, very patient with our bad Spanish! A down side of this hotel for some might be that you will need to take an easy bus or taxi to town. But it's prettier at this hotel than in town and you can easily arrange trips toLos Nevados etc from here.

We have stayed at the Estalar before and we enjoyed the surroundings so much we returned. The location in a eco-friendly park is spectacular with a nature trail (quite strenuous) with a hummingbird station, butterfly station and wild orchids. Staff is efficient and helpful

I have stayed at several hotels in Manizales and paid over $150.00 USD per night. But none have compared to my experience at the Recinto del Pensamiento. I would have gladly of paid $150.00USD per night but there was no need to do so. I booked the first night with my flight at only $40.00USD. Each night thereafter was only $55.00USD. The hotel is a nature lover's dream come true. Fish ponds, deer, sheep, ostriches, and chickens can be petted and fed. A Juan Valdez coffee shop along with a gift shop is on the grounds. $6.00USD per person gets you a guided tour of everything that has to do with flora, fauna and coffee. Check this out!
