Nice and friendly staff. Nice pool . Breakfast is not great. Not walkable to the city, but really quick drive. Really low water pressure in the shower

The 'hotel' itself is a really lovely place, particularly the rooms which were spacious & very nicely decorated. The bathroom shower was beautiful, only cold water but it's so hot in Honda that's all you need. Only 1 of 3 lights were working so basically showered in the dark at night. The staff were lovely & helped to provide food one evening as well as taking me back to the terminal to depart which was much appreciated. On the negative side the hotel is so far from the town. I love walking but in Honda's 39 degree heat walking along the main road with the huge trucks, even at night is not a nice experience but you can get taxi's back and forth. It's about a 40 minute walk to find somewhere nice to eat, which just twice a day would be okay but the hotel suggests they have a restaurant which turned out not to be true. They did help to order a greasy takeaway when I found this out which wasn't what I wanted but after walking 3hrs in the day I didn't fancy another 80 mins of walking in the dark for dinner. But for this reason it shouldn't be called a hotel, oddly on Google maps it has another name which would be more correct as a Hacienda. Bare in mind with rural comes a lot of insects I came away with at least 20+ bites on my legs from sitting outside for breakfast (I got not in the Amazonas) For this reason I figured sitting by the pool was no longer an option which I was disappointed about. All in all lovely place, lovely people but not great for seeing Honda itself

Un descanso seguro y comodo
Muy agradable la estadía. Personas muy amables en la administración del sitio. El ambiente natural es insuperable. Tuvimos un leve retardo en el servicio de desayuno en pero fue rápidamente resuelto. Fuimos en plan de escala de mi un viaje más largo pero quedamos con ganas de volver para descansar unos días. Ah, olvidaba: la piscina es deliciosa muy segura.

Hice la reserva y por la ambición me la cancelaron, la razón de "tener que cancelarme la estadía en ese lugar" era que otra persona tiempo después de yo ya estar registrado con el hotel quiso reservar todo el lugar y que a ellos les convenía más. Pésimo servicio. No lo recomiendo.

Fijn hotel, lieve mensen,maar te hondvriendelijk
Super aardig personeel, maar je moet wel spaans spreken... kamer niet al te groot, maar schoon. Buitenbadkamer prima. Ontbijt niet al te veel, maar wel lekker. Restaurant stelde nog niet veel voor. Een gerecht: weinig,wel lekker... maar voor kleine eter misschien genoeg (18000 pesos). Je kunt 2 mooie wandelingen maken op het terrrein. Een naar uitzichtpunt en een naar rivier. Die laatste kun je flink lang maken... Een helaas heel groot minpunt... zeer hondenvriendelijk hotel. Gasten mogen hun honden los laten lopen. Deze gaan echter ook in het zwembad.... niet erg hygienisch... De honden van het hotel doen dit niet. Honda is vooral.bekend bij Colombiaanse toeristen, dus zonder spaans is het vast behelpen....voor ons geen probleem. Meisje van vvv is zeer bereid je alles te vertellen en op de leuke plekjes te wijzen. Mooie, maar hete tussenstop tussen Bogota en Manizales.
