The 7 Best Hostels in Medellin (Updated 2025)

"If you want to party, this hostel is definitely one of the liveliest in Medellín — it’s quirky and upbeat with a massive rooftop bar that makes meeting people easy. The dorms felt small and cramped and the showers are oddly located upstairs and outside, but the place is kept very clean, they offer free breakfast, and since you’re really coming here to party the other shortcomings didn’t bother me." - Matthew Kepnes
