“El Porton De San Joaquin strikes me as a solid choice in Medellín, particularly for those wanting to be near the action but not necessarily in the thick of it; its Laureles location puts you within walking distance of La 70's nightlife and dining, but in a quieter residential area. I appreciate that the hotel balances convenience with tranquility, while also being close to shopping and financial centers. With practical amenities like air-conditioned rooms and a 24-hour bar, this smoke-free hotel seems well-suited for both business and leisure.”
