I arrived to Medellin this week and decided to stay at The Charlee based on online reviews. The hotel had a unique facade and lots of artwork. The room was adequate and the service very good. At the top of the hotel they have a pool and a bar/club called "Envy". I found it very enjoyable to grab a drink... More

A very good hotel if you are the fashion kind of traveller. Rooms are good, and pool on rooftop is great. Some models might be around... so check it out. Front desk does it's best but it s not a five star level. By the way iti is not a fove star hotel. More the trendy kind of "place to... More

I travel often and have stayed in many high end hotels. My stay at Charlee was nearly flawless. At check-in I was greeted in a friendly manner and despite my lack of Spanish the front desk personel handled me in a graceful way, offering me drinks as well. Almost everyone at the front is fluent in English so can only... More

We stayed at the Charlee in February 2013. The rooms are normal, but the balconys were great. I was really impressed. At night, the upper floor has a roof top swimming pool that converts to a lounge are with live entertainment. This area also offers an amazing view of the city at night. The complimentary breakfast was fairly basic, but... More

I agree 100% with all the comments below about the appalling front desk service at this hotel, by far the worst of any comparatively priced hotel I've ever been. No concierge left us dragging our own luggage up the steps to the entrance. The young girl at reception briefly looked over at us struggling and then went back to her... More

To be clear, we did not (have not) stay at the hotel so the review is not based on actual occupancy; we were going to use it as an option for a group of 15 to 20 people we have coming to Medellin for an event, so we went to check prices, availability etc. The lady at the front desk... More

Noisiest hotel on earth Thurs/Fri/Sat, calm rest of week. They appear to rent out rooms for all-night parties. Wall partitions are paper-thin, so sleep is impossible, even with earplugs. Excellent food in Italian ground-floor restaurant (nearly always empty). Staff very pleasant.

Charlee hotel is beautiful and has a lot of potential, but unfortunately it comes up short in a few areas. I'll begin with the good points. The room is beautiful with lots of space. The hotel is incredibly well located. The gym is well equipped and very large. Now for the areas that could be improved. Both the roof top... More

The rooms and location are great but the service leaves much to be desired. The staff does not speak English and the hotel does not have any way to assist you with most things you would expect from an 250+ a night hotel such as a bell man and a concierge. This hotel is a great place to party. You... More

But very nice hotel, nice service, although I was quite disappointed with the breakfast. For such a 5star hotel, the eggs were not good cooked. Coffee had not a good taste. But the rooms are very comfortable. the jacuzzi in the terrace makes you feel very nice with a beautifull view of Medellin. Worth.
