In a nutshell

A simple hotel at Carrera 4 #8-28, 160 meters from the square. Its Booking.com listing only mentions private bathrooms and basic 10 Mbps wifi. If you searched for "hotel Jardín Colonial", this is probably it, though Booking.com lists it simply as Hotel Colonial.

Address and distance to the square

8-28 Carrera 4. From the listing coordinates to the main square it is 160 meters, not counting bends or slopes. Guests give the location 9.9. A few blocks away the things to do in Jardín begin.

What the listing advertises

The public description gives no more detail; guest photos help fill in the picture.

The score in context

8.1 out of 10 from 29 reviews (Booking.com, October 18, 2026). That puts it at 16 of 16 in this guide. With so few reviews, one bad night moves the average a lot. Search reviews for hot water and blankets: at 1,750 meters, nights are cool.

What trip it fits

We see it for tight budgets that just need a bed downtown.

How to get there

Buses from Medellín's South Terminal stop a few blocks from the square, and from there it is 160 meters in a straight line. With luggage the steep streets add up, so a motorbike taxi helps. The full route is in our guide from Medellín.

If it is full

Close by you have Hotel Dorado Jardín (30 meters) and Hotel Barajas (40 meters) to compare. It also appears in hotels near the square and budget hotels and hostels. The table with all of them is in hotels in Jardín. In the afternoon, ride La Garrucha.
