The Brown Guatapé

About the stay

The first luxury hotel in Guatapé, and still the one with the most presence. Four towers inspired by the elements, lake views from every room, a swim-up bar, and breakfast so good guests extend their stays. Architecture-forward design where the building genuinely belongs to its landscape. Earn Marriott Bonvoy points here. Best for travelers who want full-service luxury without the glamping element.
