About Hotel Plaza Mayor
Hotel Plaza Mayor is a small 23-room hotel in La Candelaria, Medellín’s centro, facing Plaza Cisneros — the square better known as the Parque de las Luces for its 300 illuminated poles, some of them 24 metres tall. It is a functional, classically decorated city-centre hotel rather than a boutique or digital-nomad property, and it is built around its location: the Plaza Mayor convention centre is about 200 m away and the Alpujarra government complex sits directly opposite.
What to Expect at Hotel Plaza Mayor
Rooms come as singles, doubles and triples in Estándar and Confort grades, plus twin and family configurations; triples take two 140 cm beds and one 90 cm bed, with double-glazed windows against street noise. Breakfast is included and served at En la Terraza, the rooftop restaurant, rather than in a basement dining room. There is a bar, meeting rooms, laundry, a safe, airport transfer and a business centre at extra cost. There is no pool. The hotel is pet-friendly, which is unusual for a centro budget property.
Tips for Your Stay
Alpujarra station on Metro Line A is about 262 m away, a four-minute walk, with San Antonio around 400 m — so the whole Metro network is on the doorstep, and Plaza Botero and the Museo de Antioquia are a short ride or a walk north. Rates typically run around USD 29–50 a night. Check-in is from 3 PM, check-out by 1 PM. This suits business and event travellers and budget sightseers; if you want restaurants and nightlife on the doorstep, El Poblado or Laureles will serve you better.
