Me senti muito confortável. É um lugar super tranquilo, com ótimos trabalhadores é seguro também e é uma cafeteria. Então você pode provar um famoso café colombiano dentro do seu hostel. Um lugar tranquilo com natureza, espero voltar no futuro!
Nos encantó la experiencia. Todo estuvo muy limpio, cómodo y agradable, y la atención fue increíble desde el primer momento. Se nota el cariño y el cuidado en cada detalle. De todos los lugares que hemos conocido en Colombia, este sin duda ocupa un lugar muy especial. Nos sentimos como en casa y definitivamente volveríamos. ¡Súper recomendado!
Bello lugar. Tranquilo. Cómodo. Buena atención. Volvería cada vez que requiera llegar al centro de Bogotá 😊
Hostal en el corazón de La Candelaria, súper próximo al museo del oro, de la moneda y Botero; además de teatros, plaza cultural del Chorro de Quevedo y el mercado de La Concordia. El café que hacen es buenísimo, no dejen de probarlo!
Beautiful outdoor space with view of Monserrat, food and service was incredible! Location is perfect, next to everything and very safe. Would highly recommend this place to anyone! Thanks for everything
Nada
Un lugar maravilloso, con comida deliciosa y unas vistas a monserrate increíbles.😄
Bonne ambiance, c'est bien situé. Bon rapport qualité prix
Todo 10/10 El mejor hostal. Su personal es muy bueno Especialmente Aikel y Argenis. 💖
No tengo quejas
Me encanto el ambiente del lugar
The girls of the staff were very good, especially Aikel
Die Unterkunft hat uns enttäuscht. Nur die Lage war super, direkt in der Altstadt.
Das Zimmer war sehr kalt da es direkt draußen liegt. Auch sauber war es leider nicht, die Bettwäsche roch gebraucht und die Matratze war extrem durchgelegen. Alles insgesamt in die Jahre gekommen und wenig liebevoll gemacht. Viel zu teuer für die erhaltene Leistung.
Hemos estado genial y Aikel no has tratado de maravilla. Recomendamos mucho este hostel!
Je m’y suis sentie comme chez moi. Tous les membres du personnel sont accueillants, souriants et bienveillants. El Yarumo Hostel est très bien situé, permettant de visiter tous les attraits. De plus, propreté et confort assurés. Muchos gracias a todos 💝
La estructura del hostel es buena
La estructura del hostel es buena, pero tuvimos problemas significativos durante nuestra estancia relacionados con la comunicación y los precios. Check-in: El recepcionista francés (quien solo hablaba francés) tuvo enormes dificultades de comunicación (no hablaba español ni portugués, y su inglés no era claro). Cuando preguntamos por el pago, que en Booking era para nuestro grupo de 3 personas, solicitó el cobro individual. Al cuestionarlo, solo respondía: "I am a volunteer." Resolución del Pago: Finalmente pagamos el valor original de la plataforma Booking (el correcto para las 3 personas). Se nos indicó hablar con otro empleado al día siguiente. El nuevo empleado, que sí hablaba español, nos dijo que el cobro adicional que nos intentaron aplicar era un "error de la plataforma Booking, que estaba loquita", y por eso no nos cobró el valor extra. Desayuno: A la mañana siguiente, un nuevo empleado ofreció el menú de desayuno. Al momento de cobrar, añadió $1.000 COP al valor individual, alegando que el precio del menú estaba desactualizado. Recomendación: Sugerimos mejorar urgentemente la capacitación del personal en manejo de precios, el conocimiento de las tarifas de la plataforma y garantizar personal con comunicación básica en idiomas relevantes (español/inglés) para la recepción.
La chambre et les lits étaient très propres et très confortables.
Super convenient location, good breakfast options because it is a cafe, comfortable beds and clean place overall
This is clearly a cafe, not a hostel. The access to the dorm was very easy for the customers and the door could not be locked because one of the employees was sleeping in there. No such thing as curtains for the individual beds. The worst part by far is the night support. Literally went out for dinner, never got a key for the front door (“just ring and we will open it for you”) and, guess what, I was stuck outside in the street with no way to communicate with the hostel staff. Because it was getting late and there are some homeless people nearby, I have decided to call an Uber and go somewhere else for sleeping. The Uber driver was such an angel because, on the way to the new place, he got mad with this situation and ended up calling El Yarumo to fix it. Not sure how he did it, but was much more helpful than the hostel staff itself.
I had a great experience. The room was clean, the staff was very helpful and the location was perfect!
Excellent hostal dans le centre de Bogotá. Personnel très gentil et très bonne localisation !
Todo estuvo muy bien la atención en el hostal La atención fue muy calidad Muy recomendada
A lovely garden with many places where you can sit and the small Cafe connected to if the weather is bad. A nice staff and a good location. Very safe since the front door always was opened and closed by the staff.
No heating in the room. Clean but for us, who are old, rather small and uncomfortable toilets.
No se comprende por qué razón si se tenía una reserva hecha con número de confirmación de booking al llegar al lugar ellos afirman que no hay ninguna reserva, de manera contundente me expresaron que no me alojarían y lo más preocupante es que estaba en una zona y hora insegura y no respondieron de manera efectiva, me hicieron una reserva a otro hostal, sin embargo, al llegar al otro hostal no había ninguna reserva, muy preocupante la atención tanto de la dueña como la asistente, es de resaltar que no recomendaria en absoluto este hostal.
L'emplacement
Personnel pas professionnel du tout, la chambre n'était pas propre rien à voir avec les photos,
Super bien situé pour visiter le centre ville, et l'ambiance est super!! La cour intérieure est très agréable pour se poser😌 je recommande ++
The staff was very attentive.
Personeel was zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Er was een fout in de booking en men deed wel een effort om dit op te lossen. Goede locatie en wifi.
Onverschoonde lakens, want er waren nog haren op de lakens te vinden. Hoofdkussen was zeer slecht, hard. Matras was ook erg onaangenaam, hard en dun. De kamer kon niet verlucht worden. De kamer was aan de receptie waar nog tot laat muziek op stond die je kon horen tot in de kamer. De douches en toilet zijn half buiten.
The vibe in general is super nice and I loved the music they played during the day (indie/80s). Rooms were basic but sufficient and clean, the separate bathrooms were clean, too. Pretty relaxing stay in a fantastic neighborhood!!
It can get cold during the night, but there is an additional blanket for that. The rooms are not very soundproof but i didn't mind.
The employees are soo friendly, we felt directly welcomed. Everything was clean and since it‘s a small hostel, you easily meet people. Just make sure you bring some warm clothes with you, since Bogotá is at 2600 meters above sea level and it‘s getting really cold during the night. Thankfully we got more blankets for the second night, they helped a lot!
Fácil acesso para todos os lugares de Bogotá, ambiente tranquilo, hostel para descansar !
De não ter chaves para entrar no hostel e ter que ficar na dependência de abrirem a porta ! Poderia ter um sistema mais autônomo!
Besonders schön ist der Innenhof der Unterkunft. Ebenso ist das Personal ausserordentlich nett. Diese Kombination macht das Yarumohotel für alle Reisenden zu einer super Unterkunft.
Sehr gemuetliches Hostel, ruhig und nett. Ich hatte das 4-Bett-Zimmer fuer mich allein, das war sehr angenehm. Das Personal ist sehr nett. Lage ist angenehm und sicher.
Betten eher kalt und ein bisschen unbequem. WLAN hat nicht funktioniert. Man darf nicht in der Kueche kochen.
The vibes , the team and the place !

Très bon rapport qualité prix dans le secteur de la Candeleria avec pleins d’activités à faire autour. Les espaces communs étaient propres et nettoyer plusieurs fois par jour et l’équipe est très agréable Il y a un café dedans idéal pour chiller ou travailler (le cappuccino est très bon)

The stuff Very central and cozy
Friendly people
The cat and the litter box is housed in the laundry room
We had a fantastic stay at Yarumo Café & Hostel! The rooms and bathrooms were clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was well-equipped. Manuel and David were incredibly helpful—always ready to answer our questions about Bogotá and full of great local tips. We also asked them about other places to visit in Colombia, and they had great recommendations for each city. They even waited with us until our taxi arrived at night when we had to leave for our bus, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend staying at here!
very pretty grounds and house, comfy and very close and nice walk to town- basically 2 blocks from town
everything great
Yarumo hostel is a great place to enjoy Bogota. Great hospitality, It’s indeed a hidden gem! everything was awesome! All the staff were warm, smart and ready to help! 100% recommend it!
Beautiful, comfy and clean with lots of light and a patio, while also very short pretty walk into town-
nothing really except maybe I always like a printout or suggestions of where to eat and things to do, but we figured it out and I did message and ask the owner who gave some suggestions.
Friendly staff, good location, uncomfortable matrass and pillows
The outdoor area, David & Manuel
The sleeping areas don’t have curtains. Maybe bunk beds with curtains would be better.
Very Nice personal, good location, Nice garden. Very safe and helpfull people. They have kitchen, the bathrooms Are not very close to the rooms you have to go through the cafe part to reach. But all was super and quite and calm and friendly! I really recommend.
Overall great. The bathrooms could be closer but common, it is Hard to find a place in Candelaria where is a garden.
I stayed at this hostel and it was an extraordinary experience. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was welcoming and friendly. The staff was amazing, always willing to help and make me feel at home. The facilities were clean and comfortable, which made my stay even more enjoyable. The location is perfect, close to everything I needed to explore. Also, the activities they recommended me to do in the area allowed me to meet other travelers and create unforgettable memories. This hostel definitely changed my perception about accommodations and I can't wait to go back. I totally recommend it!
Nothing.
Receptionist spoke English and helped me with what he could, a towel when needed, and checking instructions in the night. I was accommodated in a room with 4 beds. First night lucky to be alone, second night just one more guest.
First night there was no water, even for toilet, not only for shower or hands. It seems there is a problem in Bogota and they cut their water in rotation. Awful not being able to use normally a toilet and a shower. The room was extremely noisy, u could hear the traffic, people coming and going from hostel, airplanes in the night, everything. Furniture broken and only, door just to be there, 0% sound or temperature insulation. In the night is freezing cold in the rooms and without any type of heating. Bed mattress uncomfortable. And toiles are being jammed when used.
The location is great in La Candelaria. And the staff! They were really friendly and helpful with amazing recommendations for everything, special thanks to Manuel! The room was comfortable, we had everything we needed and there was hot water in the shower.
The windows facing the courtyard; you could hear everything happening there. Quiet time starts at 10pm and people respected that by not partying or playing music, but unfortunately even normal speech can be heard in the rooms. Nothing that can’t be solved with earplugs though :)
The staff were wonderful!! Everyone was so helpful and lovely to chat with. The location is amazing in a great part of candelaria. The hostel is also a cafe so you can get a coffee and/or food there. They provide laundry service and our clothes were returned clean!
For my preferences, the bed was very hard and uncomfortable. Not the hostel’s fault, but it should be noted that Bogotá has a water crisis and running water is only available every other day. There is a kitchen in the hostel but it can only be used at certain hours since they also use it for the cafe. Overall a very nice place.
The staff is amazing and super helpful. They have a nice common area good for coworking and chilling.
Kitchen is available but only for basic stuff, like warming food or using fridge. Shower is hot but the bathroom is cold (no door to keep it warm). Wi-fi is not that good in the dorm.
Ive had a fabulous stay! All the staff have gobernador above and Beyond to endure im comfortable, including an early breakfast and extra blankets. No complaciente.
Nothing
The garden is super cute and Manuel and Giuliana were super friendly and helpful. They definitely made my time in Bogota. They made me really cute and delicious drinks and food in their kitchen and they were always there to open the door welcome me in!
The shower is a little cold.
Location is perfect, super nice patio and atmosphere. Súper friendly staff, Manuel and Giulianna were very helpful. We Will come back!
A lot of space. Many areas big rooms. No crowds
It’s a very cozy place. People are very helpful with Travel tips and information. And its a great location to explore Bogota

I had a great time here. I had a very warm welcome from Juliana and she was very caring. Manuel was very helpful and had great recommendations for in Bogota and Colombia in general. The vibe is laidback, chill with lots of co-working space. I recommend it!

The staff were fantastic. Juliana and Manuel were incredibly helpful, caring and conscientious. I’m very grateful for their kindness.
Staff.
No private bath
The room was very nice and clean. Also the staff very extremely helpful. Specially Manuel. What a sweet person! He gave us a lot of recommendations of where to go around the area.
Honestly nothing.
Everything was really nice
The hostel is great! Perfectly located, the staff was very helpful and welcoming, facilities were clean and the Food was very good.
very friendly and relaxed atmosphere
The staff is very kind and will help you with all your questions. They play a lot of music and it feels very safe here.
If we have to mention something, it would be that the beds could be more comfortable, but that is personal.
Staff were amazing, location was perfect with loads of character - you walk out the door to nice cobbled streets with so many pubs and restaurants and the main square is only a 5 min walk
Exceptional staff who made my stay amazingly pleasant (the owner is fortunate to have such incredible staff who lift the rating from 9/10 to 10/10)!, facilities were perfect - modern, comfortable & clean, location was excellent & within short walking distance to all local restaurants & amenities! Overall, this was excellent value for money. I would strongly recommend this property if you're staying in Bogotá ☺️🙏🏽
Nothing.
Great location, walking distance to plenty of attractions in the area + plenty of restaurants. Manuel at the front desk was very nice and helpful.
Quite outdated, I guess I got an older room (not as on the picture when I booked). The mattress on the bed was completely overused and should be replaced. The door has a 2cm opening at the bottom with cold air entering the room (easily fixable). Showers and toilets are outside, there is no door keeping them inside so it gets chilly at night when you go shower. Staff handed me a tablet at check-out and asked me to rate the facility with 10, which I found absolutely inappropriate. I declined as I like to rate my stay independently. I think many guests just do it when asked, hence the very high rating of this place (just my thought). I've stayed in dozens of hostels around the world and this is an average 7.0 - 8.0 place, really nothing exceptional here and certainly not a 10 place.
The location was fabulous. Close to the plaza de bolivar, the monserrate, supermarkets and restaurants. Really convenient to commence your journey from here. Also the accommodation was clean and the staff was nice.
The hostel si located in really good area for exploring the historical part of Bogota, very clean, staff si Super friendly, you can feel just good vibes, maybe a little bit more expensive than other hostels, but 100% worth it.
Hard to leave the hostel.
