You can play billiards and table tennis at the hostel. Jane and Felipe are lovely people. They were very kind. I always feel comfortable and welcome. They gave me coffee and bread. We chatted a lot hehe. The place is a bit out of town and since I wanted to relax and rest, it was the perfect place. The facilities were good.

NOMAD Hostal - Barichara features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Barichara. The hostel also offers free WiFi and free private parking.

Palonegro International Airport is 127 km away. It's so beautiful there that I was able to rest my mind and think peacefully about what to do next. I slept comfortably well with the sounds of the nature. I woke up with the chirping greetings of the birds and I'm commune with the nature. The internet is fast. The staff are friendly. The location is a little far from the center but I don't mind. I love the place and I will miss it so much.

Tinto Hostel in Barichara features a garden and a terrace. The hostel has an outdoor swimming pool and a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property.

Palonegro International Airport is 120 km from the property. When I first booked at Tinto Hostel, I was in the process of looking for a tranquil and quiet place to stay for the last month of my 9-month journey abroad. After spending two nights in Barichara and at Tinto Hostel, I knew I had landed in the perfect spot. I ended up extending my stay from 2 nights to almost a full month. The hostel is surrounded by rich greenery which made it all that more relaxing and rejuvenating. I felt I was sleeping in a beautiful garden yet, the dorm room was very clean, comfortable, and spacious. The beds were also much bigger than any dorm room that I'd stayed in throughout my journey in Colombia. The location was perfect and close to everything. The town of Barichara itself, was absolutely stunning. The cost was extremely affordable. The owner Javier and his staff were wonderful and a delight to be around. Javier upon arrival, provided everyone with a map of the town and recommended the best places to eat, shop, and sites to see. Javier was always available for anything guests needed and was always helpful in any way possible. Javier is an exceptional host and I will miss him and his staff greatly.
