Hotel Sites Montería

I’m a regular traveler. I’ve been all over the world and this is the first hotel I have absolutely nothing bad to say about. NOTHING. It’s located in a safe and clean area. Super close to all sorts of conveniences and a mall. The staff was attentive and kind. Every day they cleaned and brought fresh water bottles and chocolates without fault. The water bottles are a SUPER PLUS!! The water in Colombia is not safe to drink in most parts so this was absolutely LOVELY! It should be a standard everywhere, but surprisingly it isn’t (and I’ve stayed in the most renowned hotels in Colombia). Awesome shower, comfy bed. Hands down best breakfast I’ve ever had in a hotel in Colombia! I’m Colombian myself and I know my Colombian food so I am always let down by hotel breakfast when they serve only a continental or american style breakfast. The breakfast at Hotel Sites Monteria strikes the perfect balance of your usual breakfast and local cuisine. DID NOT DISAPPOINT! 10/10 without a doubt the best hotel I’ve stayed.

EVERYTHING WAS GREAAAAT

This hotel has a lot going for it. Nice clean rooms with comfy beds. Best hot water shower I have had in Monteria ever. Our room was large and never heard too much noise coming from other rooms or the hallway. Some hotels have doors that close so hard that it can wake you up at all hours. These doors close easy. The rooftop restaurant has good quality food at decent prices with a super helpful and friendly staff. The location is great too with a supermarket and several restaurants right outside. I felt at home after a few nights... Will go back for sure.

Internet was a bit weak at times, not sure if it is always like that. Only one elevator but didn't affect us too much.

This is likely the best hotel in Monteria. It is located at the northern end of the city (closer to the airport), but this is not a drawback, being in an area of nice residential neighborhoods. The hotel is new and is part of a mall plaza with restaurants, stores and a good grocery store. The hotel is very clean. Breakfast is on the hotel roof terrace (9th floor), which has excellent views of the surroundings. The pool, also on the roof terrace, is good for kids and families (shallow, no swimming). There are also many restaurants in the neighbourhood of El Recreo, about 10 minutes away by foot. The breakfast is good and offers any choice of eggs, caldo (a tasty typical Colombian beef soup that is eaten for breakfast), breads, typical foods (empanadas, patacon), juice, cereals, coffee, fruits. The rooms are spacious. I and my wife stayed in a 55 m2 one-bedroom apartment, very comfortable, with chairs, coffee tables, sofa, open concept kitchen with coffee machine, desk. The internet works well. The airport ride takes about 15 minutes and costs 25,000 COP (Jan 2022). A ride to or from downtown is about 8,000 COP.

The hotel has a library, but the management does not allow the use of books because of Covid. So this message is for the manager: Old fashioned people like me still like the feel of a book. I did not take my computer with me just because I was looking forward to a weekend reading real books. I hate reading from the phone screen. The sister hotel in Medellin allowed me to read a book from their library a couple of months ago. It would be nice to end this policy (or at least put a warning on your website). You can easily quarantine the books for a few days.

The beds are very confortable and the room was clean with a lovely view to the sunrise. The staff were quite friendly and attentive, they made us feel like home.

They could improve the breakfast service, the staff were attentive but lacked management. For instance, I ordered an alternative to dairy milk and was told to buy it. When I talked to the manager in place he only ordered one carton which didn't last for the duration of our stay.

Extremely good value for the money. Good facilities, good service, great breakfast, fantastic location.

Only one elevator for 8 floors make you always wait. Not many gluten free options for breakfast. Nothing too bad.

Everything else! Very friendly staff. Good food. Good facilities. Good, clean rooms. Central location and secure car parking.

The ONLY niggle- couldn't be given capsules for the Nespresso machine because of the rate I paid!! Would have had to buy the capsules separately! Given the actual cost of these I was disappointed and thought a compromise would have been possible to allow a half dozen capsules which wouldn't have eaten into the profits too much and would have been a better optic for a hotel with aspirations. Management might want to rethink that.

Hotel Sites is by far the BEST hotel that I have stayed at in Colombia! The hotel was clean, modern and the staff were professional and friendly! It was an exceptional value for the price I paid and I HIGHLY recommend this hotel to anyone.

Exceptional staff. Breakfast very tasty and diverse. The room is super comfy. The bathroom is nice size. Gym is clean with great views. The location is close to nice restaurants and a couple of malls

The pool is shallow

Staff was great and friendly. They helped us obtain transportation. Grocery store next door, great dinning areas in the same plaza. Room was clean and organized. Linen clean and changed daily. Overall I enjoyed my stay.

The room was clean, the bed was really comfortable, and the staff was helpful and friendly all the time. I had a great experience and would stay again in this place.

I liked everything. Hopefully, as business goes back to pre-pandemic levels, the restaurant and bar have more options to offer, and the breakfast has a little bit more variety.
