The staff was amazing, extremely friendly and went absolutely out of their way to make sure I was taken care of...thanks to tatiana(front desk) for her hospitality. The hotel spa will come to your room and give you a massage that will make you feel like a million bucks. Oh yeah, the restaurant has the most amazing arroz con coco... More

The hotel is located amongst all the other big hotels in the southern part of Medellín, which is quite safe and has lots of restaurants and bars close by. The hotel restaurant itself was very good, too and reception service was very helpful and friendly. We got two massages in the Spa on short notice although they were not the... More

Hotel Porton in Poblado is one of the better hotels around in Medellin. The location is especially good, being next to a large Santafe shopping mall and a major bank. It is always easy to get Taxis away/to from it. I alreafy saw ads from this hotel at Bogota airport. The hotel at first was getting a bit strange about... More

The place is nice and clean but pictures look way better for a 5 stars hotel. Gym and jacuzzi were closed when I stayed which didn't make me happy. Breakfast was pretty good although their fruit juice were dissapointing. I'd stay there again only if they beat their competitors in price by at least 35%.

I stayed at the hotel for approx 12 days whilst in Medellin. The basic rooms I stayed in were clean and well appointed. Breakfast each morning was good with ample choice. After the third day or so the staff got used to my routine and not long after sitting down to breakfast a nice cappuccino with cinnamon was forthcoming, the... More

I'd give this 3.5 stars if that was an option. Good stay in a nice part of town in a terrific city! Room – clean, nice natural light, good size. Slight leak in the shower that causes water to drip into the bathroom area, nothing a simple caulk couldn’t fix. AC was weak – I’m glad it wasn’t hot while... More

We stayed at the Porton on Dec 13 and 14 for a small tour of Colombia, the stay we had at this establishment is worth well my time to write and praise the service and the room we stayed in and the view we had. I strongly suggest you stay at the Porton when in Medellin
