Tips for booking your hotel or hostel

Updated November 2024

Where to stay in Filandia? There are accommodations for every budget. The choice is a lot less than in Salento, but you can still find a nice hostel or hotel in Filandia. In the center you will find mostly older (not so well insulated) houses built in the authentic architecture of the coffee region. These colorful houses have been renovated and converted into hostels and hotels, such as the Bidea Backpackers hostel.

The center is a cozy place to stay. You’re near restaurants and cafes and the central square, where you can catch a Willy Jeep to Salento. The hotels and hostels in the heart of the city do tend to be noisier due to traffic. A few hundred meters from the central square is La Puesta del Sol. Here you have the best of both worlds: views of nature and location near restaurants such as Helena Adentro and TukTuk.

Even if you choose a hotel that is within 1 km of the city center, it is still a short walk to the village. If you like looking for peace and quiet, you can also choose a hostel or hotel in nature, such as Tukawa and Ecohotel Monte Tierra Habitaciones en Glamping, where you can spend the night overlooking the beautiful landscape. If you don’t have a rental car to get there, you can take a Willy Jeep in Filandia. Hostels and hostels are usually very helpful in helping you book excursions and transportation from your accommodation.

At Tukawa, you will stay overnight on a coffee plantation in a dorm bed or a private bedroom or luxury cabaña.

On the plantation you can chill in the pool, take beautiful walks, rent bikes and book all kinds of activities (for very reasonable prices), such as a coffee tour on the plantation (COP50,000/€12.50), horseback riding (2.5h COP180,000/€45 and a trip to the Valle de Cocora, La Carbonera and Los Nevados National Park.

Tukawa is half an hour from Filandia. You get there by Willy jeep or Tukawa’s shuttle service.

If you come with your rental car, it must be a 4×4 as it is a bad, dirt road.
