Park Life Hostel

Popayan, Colombia Youth Hostels

This elegant hostel is located right in the heart of Popayan, next to the Cathedral - in the main plaza, called Parque Caldas. The charming colonial house that hosts it, still retains its most beautiful and original assets: amazingly carved wooden floors, glass and ceramics chandeliers, antique furnishings, dramatic high ceilings, huge gorgeous bathrooms, original wooden doors and lots and lots of light for the common areas. From the elegantly furnished reception area and some of the private rooms you will be enjoying the most beautiful view of Popayan: of the main plaza, of the cathedral and some of the oldest and most stunning churches in town.

The house in itself is a piece of Popayan history as one of its most influential and powerful families used to live here. Get a glimpse of how life used to look like in the old glorious days, enjoy our relaxing common areas, listen to our carefully selected music and let us help you plan the next step of your journey.

The hostel also features a big kitchen, lots of common areas, movie room with more than 200 selected movies, laundry service, free luggage storage and free WIFI in all the building.

Directions

From the bus terminal you have two options:

- Taxi: ask for the central park (Parque Caldas). It will cost around 3500-4000 COP* depending on time and day (night and Sundays are more expensive)

- Come walking. We are not far from the bus terminal. It's actually a nice 12 minutes walk and along the way you can see some of the colonial buildings from Popayan. Just cross the big iron bridge and then straight forward until Carrera 11. Turn left in one of the streets that cross it and you will get to one big street called Carrera 9 (it's the only one with trees in the middle). Turn right and go along the Carrera 9 until the intersection with Calle 5 within the historical center (around 8-10min and 8-9 blocks). Turn left and go along Calle 5 for three blocks and you will get to Parque Caldas (central park). Walk a half block further and you will find us on the right hand side of Calle 5, just to the left of the Cathedral.

In case you were wondering, Popayan is safe place to walk and it's actually highly recommended.

Airport: take a taxi asking for the central park (Parque Caldas)
