The building itself is a stunning piece of modern architecture, and serves as something of a mission statement: this is not just a hip hotel, but an unapologetically upscale one as well.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
The surrounding streets of Provenza are shaded and walkable, lined with lively open-air restaurants and independent boutiques.
The rooms
Moody, dark-toned rooms feature pegboard headboards hung with leather pouches and pendant lamps shaped like camera lenses.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Wooden daybeds sit directly in the water on the sixth floor, overlooking the city skyline and the Aburrá Valley.
The spa and gym
The gym has a Peloton bike and free weights. In the treatment room, massages include lavender sleep recovery kits.
Restaurant
Courtyard Cafe
Tables sit in the open-air courtyard beneath lush planters, where bifold glass doors open beside a bao stand.
At the table
Rooftop bar La Deriva serves coastal seafood high above the valley, and Náufrago mixes cocktails with foraged Amazonian botanicals.
How it began
Plan:b Arquitectos completed the structure in 2019, tinting its perforated metal skin to mirror the dark shadows cast by Medellín's strong sun.
