You can play billiards and table tennis at the hostel. First, I stayed for 3 weeks there! I've felt like being in a small family! Jen and Felipe are so welcoming! They will make you feel comfortable as soon as you arrive with their beautifull smile and their overwhelming feeling of happiness! PLUS, they offer 3 meals for cheap prices! The food is just amazing and they have vegeterian options as well which are also super tasty! I played music a lot with Felipe and the other guests! It's the perfect place for those who wants to have a peacefull and quiet hostel far from the crowdy San Gill center! Also, they have 3 cats and 2 dogs which are sooo gentle! I truelly recommand this hostel! I also forgot my headphones there and they offered me to send it back to my home by post! Thank you Jen and Felipe!

NOMAD Hostal - Barichara features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Barichara. The hostel also offers free WiFi and free private parking.

Palonegro International Airport is 127 km away. The hostel is absolutely beautiful. Bathrooms were clean, the food in the restaurant delicious and the staff very friendly and helpful. They kept in touch even before my arrival and helped me to organize the trip from Bogotá to the hostel! It's a great place to hang out and relax. I found the transport to Barichara pretty relaxed. You can either walk to the main road for 15 minutes and take a bus that runs frequently or pay a bit more for a tuktuk to take you right from the hostel.

Built in 2017, the property is within 42 km of Chicamocha National Park and 42 km of Chicamocha Water Park. The accommodation offers evening entertainment and a shared kitchen. Amazing staff, Viviana, Wiltor and Diego were all really nice and helpful with organising activities and just in general. The activities organised through the hostel were with companies that had good safety standards so worth the money. The hostel is in a great location, is clean and great value for money. The amenities are really good and they organise events in the evenings which is great to get to know people, one of our favourite hostels in Columbia.

Boasting luggage storage space, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. The accommodation features a shared kitchen, a 24-hour front desk and organising tours for guests. Loved how much they help with tours and everything you need. The hostel has such a great vibe aswell if you want to just relax and chill. I would recommend staying here to everyone I tell about going to san gil. All the workers are amazing and go above and beyond. They have little free experiences aswell like tejo, Spanish lessons and football. It honestly is the best place we stayed extra nights because we loved it that much. San gil is the nicest place and this hostel accomodate you in every way possible. The owner is amazing aswell. I needed help with medication and he came to help translate everything. Can’t express on how great this place is
