Hotel Boutique Sazagua, Pereira

Paying homage to the region’s Quimbaya civilization with its name, Sazagua Hotel Boutique is a charming boutique hotel in the heart of Colombia’s stunning coffee region. The hotel reflects the early coffee history through its colonial architecture by using wooden structures, wide corridors and vivid colors. With just 12 rooms and three villas, the hotel is still larger than life and is surrounded by beautiful gardens full of tropical flowers and unique birds and has a spa made from giant river rocks. Where else can you find that?

why we like it

We love Sazagua for its gastronomic repertoire. It offers incredible international, as well as authentic Colombian, cuisine and the menu is always evolving so your options are truly endless. All you sun-lovers will no doubt find yourselves down by Sazagua’s wonderful pool on a hot afternoon, and curling up next to the fireplace with a glass of wine or a cup of Colombian coffee is a glorious way to end a day. Be sure to do some of Sazagua’s activities to really make the most of your time here. We especially love the exotic fruit tasting session, the cooking classes and the Colombian BBQ evenings where meat is cooked on a bonfire in the garden.
