2# Best sustainable hotel in Jardín: Hotel Plantación

Hotel Plantación works hard to offer a quality stay to its clients while minimizing its impact on the planet. Tourism can be very beneficial for a town such as Jardín, but we must also control it.

How to pick your hotel in Jardín, Antioquia

Thanks to this section, you should be able to find your hotel in Jardín (if not already done).

I wrote a kick-ass Jardín guide. You should read it too before coming. You’ll find tons of tips, activities, and more!

Why do you come to Jardín, Antioquia

→ You know that Jardín is a friendly colonial village and you want to enjoy the cafes and good restaurants. In this case, choose your hotel in town — but a bit far from the main square so that the church bells won’t wake you up. The Plantación Hotel, the Passiflora Hotel, and the Sergeant Pepper’s Hostel are good options.

→ You are more of a nature lover, and you don’t mind not going to Jardín every day. You’ll love Creo Ecolodge. Stay there if you’re not in a hurry.

→ Would you like to wake up to the sound of birdsong and be able to get to the village quickly? La Boira or Casa Hotel Porton is the hotel in Jardín you’re looking for.

→ Find more things to do in Jardín.

What you must know about Jardín, Antioquia

→ Jardín is at an altitude of 1750m. It is chilly in the evening. 

→ Many hotels don’t accept credit cards. You can withdraw at Davienda. If you want to pay with your credit card, stay in the Plantación Hotel, the Passiflora Hotel, or the Sergeant Pepper’s Hostel.

→ The main square of Jardín is full of life, but it is also very noisy. That’s why the hotels on this list are at least a few blocks away.

What type of accommodation are you looking for?

→ You are traveling as a couple and are looking for a comfortable room with professional customer service. Stay at Hotel Plantación or Passiflora.

→ You travel alone and want to meet other travelers. You’ll have better luck at Creo Ecolodge or Sergeant Pepper’s.

→ Do you like to book a massage after a long walk? The gentle hands of Eva at Creo Lodge or the SPA of the Hotel Plantación will be happy to welcome you.

→ You are traveling with several people, and you don’t mind sharing a room. 40 amigos o Casa Hotel Portón offer family rooms.

→ You want accommodation with a swimming pool. I didn’t find a nice hotel in Jardín with a pool. Sorry. In any case, it is rather chilly at the end of the day. You won’t feel like swimming ^^.

→ Another solution would be to pick a hotel in Jardín with a Jacuzzi. Stay in Passiflora.

How to get to Jardín, Antioquia

Most of the travelers will pick Jardín as a multi-day trip from Medellin. Many buses leave from the South Bus terminal. The bus company is Rapido Ochoa. It takes about 3h30, and there are 6 departures per day.

Also, travelers like to stop in Jardín when traveling from Salento to Medellín. It’s a bit complicated at you have to take several buses. Leave early if you want to do it.

How long to stay in Jardín

I like Jardín. In addition to the famous Esplandor waterfall, there are many tours to organize with our local partner.

Choose between their many cultural activities (coffee plantation, beekeeping), observe colorful birds, rappel down waterfalls or organize 1 or multi-day hikes.

I recommend a minimum of 3 days to enjoy Jardín. If you like to book activities to discover new places, then 5 days will be an ideal length!

I have analyzed the hotels in Jardín according to the following criteria:

• Notes on Booking
• The reviews
• Average price per night

There are also excellent options for travelers on a budget. If it’s your case, check out Casa Hotel Porton and 40 amigos.
