The Brown, Guatape, Autograph Collection

The Brown, Guatape, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent
"The breathtaking views of the river/reservoir of Guatapé are well presented as a backdrop of the Brown hotel. The restaurant felt upscale and the unlimited delicious breakfast and dinner did not disappoint. Get the breakfast included in your package -it’s a GREAT VALUE. Diego our server at the lobby level restaurant was outstanding - anticipating our needs before we even articulated them. We did a beautiful tour of the reservoir and a tour to climb the Piedra Del Peñol and see the small city in Guatape -Gabriel was an excellent tour guide. I enjoyed The Brown so much I’m honestly considering coming back for my 50th next year for a few days with friends. The room was a little small but who cares when you have a large balcony with breathtaking views of the river. The food, vibe, and atmosphere didn’t disappoint. Also what a beautiful gym. Go here - you’ll feel like you found a best kept secret!!"
