Urban Buddha Hostel, Medellín, Colombia

Buddha Hostels, inspiring & innovating. From the success of the Secret

Buddha we are pleased to give birth to our new space, the Urban Buddha.

We have tailored our hostels as unique expressions, to reflect the

essence of the green �city of eternal spring�.

The Urban Buddha is a hostel that fuses retro-Asian design with the

original Art Deco architecture of a home built in 1953 located in

Laureles, the most prestigious residential sector in the heart of

Medellin. Located only 5 minutes from downtown, the Stadium, and the

Zona Rosa (tourist party area), in front of the Bolivariana University

and within walking distance from 70th st & 33rd ave (more traditional

party streets), you can walk safely day & night in the realm of a serene

green environment.

The Urban Buddha proposes a new concept which unites culture, culinary

art, adventure and foremost a place to unwind and relax, paving a

natural platform of exchange between visitors and locals. Our 600m home

splits in two levels, housing bright and airy dorms and private rooms,

a spacious balcony, hammocks, and a large patio area and garden with koi

pond to complete the space.

The Urban Buddha will soon become a cultural home where art

exhibitions, independent film and music can be enjoyed by each

individual traveller regardless of nationality or age.

An original refurbished 1950�s massive kitchen is fully stocked with

all the toys for all to use. Since food plays a major role for anyone

travelling whether it is for need or for love, Buddha Hostels is a

shrine to exotic flavours, which you are invited to feast on with our

home cooked meals.

We also have a front deck to chill as well as giant puffs facing a 42�

HD LCD flatscreen with Direct TV 24hr, Playstation 3 and a DVD player

with an extensive video library. For our adventure seeking friends if

you wish to see Medellin from the sky you can do so in the most natural

way there is to fly ; paragliding. Feel like having your feet closer to

the Earth but wish to have a bit of a rush, then climb the second

largest rock on the planet, horseback ride in la �burroteca�(horse

disco) through the forest hillside of Medellin or Pub Crawl with us.

Backpacking is a lifestyle, a journey, an opportunity for

self-expression; it is not just about where you go but who you know

along the way. Let Buddha Hostels deliver this with �Love
