Beautiful natural setting. The room was well set-up and we appreciated the unexpected small kitchenette. Enjoyed using the complimentary SUPs for a morning paddle. Perfect for a romantic weekend away.

The staff was excellent, they went out of their way to make our experience as satisfying as possible
I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to enjoy a great place with great service and food.
Beautiful place, with great staff, the breakfast was amazing, with good choices. Dinner at restaurant was also great. Extremely quiet and relaxing.
The staff always helpful and pleasant. Milo was the best
Thank you for amazing experience
Super stylish hotel. Slow living concept so it's quiet and nurishing. Good connection to nature 🌱
Very good breakfast. Friendly and helpful staff. Cabins are MUY BONITO! Free kayaks! 😁
Wonderful hotel to stay for a stress free- peaceful vacation. The food and drinks in the hotel restaurants were amazing. We are looking forward for longer vacation in this hotel.
This property was such a beautiful retreat away from the city. It’s very peaceful, the views are incredibly picturesque and the service is warm and attentive.
The restaurant was really good, and our favorite part is that they will bring you your meals straight to your villa upon request, so you can truly relax.
Be sure to ask for Milo, he’s simply fantastic. 😉
Our experience at Hotel La Pausa was very disappointing. The cleaning ladies and waiters are polite and decent, but the man at the front desk is opportunistic, unfriendly, and has a very poor attitude. They even tried to charge us for services we did not use.
The Wi-Fi never worked during our entire stay, and the water —as shown in our video— was dirty at all times. On top of that, the front desk man doesn’t greet guests upon arrival or say goodbye upon departure, showing a total lack of courtesy.
For the high prices they charge, the quality of service is terrible. We would not return and do not recommend this place.
This property is about 20 mins from Guatapé. The staff are very friendly, but that's about it. The roads to the hotel is horrible and most taxis don't want to go. There isn't much to do. 45,000 for taxi to Guatapé one way. I wouldn't swim in the water. The restaurant is very good. The room was a little dirty when we arrived. There is no air-conditioning and it gets very hot in the day. For the price there should be air-conditioning and a decent road to access. They were building new rooms when we stayed, so the sound of construction all day. Not peaceful at all. They should put that effort into fixing the road. I don't think it's worth it and i won't be staying again.

Lugar es un paraiso
Si estás buscando un lugar mágico para desconectarte del mundo, La Pausa Hotelbistró es una joya en Guatapé que lo tiene todo.
Desde el momento en que llegas, sientes que el tiempo se detiene: la vista al embalse de Guatapé, la tranquilidad del paisaje y la energía pausada del lugar hacen que cada minuto sea especial.
Las cabañas son acogedoras, elegantes y bien equipadas, muchas con jacuzzi privado, chimenea y terraza con vista al lago — ideal para parejas, escapadas románticas o simplemente descansar con estilo.
El servicio es uno de los puntos más elogiados: el personal es amable, atento y siempre dispuesto a ayudarte, con detalles que marcan la diferencia (como el desayuno a la carta, room service 24/7 y limpieza diaria).
