This hotel's staff is superb in every sense of the word. They are courteous, efficient and accommodating. The whole place is spotless as far as cleanliness goes. The breakfast is excellent, included and varies day to day which is a great plus. Suggest you ask for a room with a view to the city since it is located up in... More

Intercontinental Medellin is a big, luxurious hotel. I was there for a business meeting and there were several meetings going on at the same time, as it has a huge amount and diversity of meeting rooms. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable although a little bit old (carpet in my room needed change or at least extensive cleaning). A... More

This hotel is tired, but in a comfortable kind of way. Nothing is terribly disagreeable, just not brand spanking new. Signs are everywhere that a complete renovation might be in order to keep up with local competition. The poolside restaurant is very good, if not elegant.

Very bad service, very bad breakfast, very bad rooms. The bathroom had oxidations on the floor. I don't understand how is it possible for such a 5 star category. Maybe because I took the ''cheapest'' room. As they were explaining they were renovating upper floors rooms. The only positive point is the swimming pool. So if you have time to... More

The InterContinental is probably the nicest commercial hotel in Medellin. There's not TOO much within walking distance, but the bell hops are always willing to recommend places to go and call a cab over. The cabs are pretty cheap compared to American prices, so getting around is not an issue. The staff was wonderful. Dayana checked us in and has... More
