Hello from Buritaca in Colombia. I’m Ben Davies, one of the two founders of El Rio Hostel, a 3 and-a-bit-year-old hostel situated close to Colombia’s Caribbean coast. We normally provide ever so slightly higher-end backpacker accommodation, decent international food, and a tasty espresso martini so those traveling around Colombia. We cater mostly to 18-40-year-old Europeans, Canadians, Brits, Irish, Aussies, and the rest, looking for a good time on their big trip.

We are known for having won Hostelworld’s best hostel in Colombia and 2nd best in Latin America in our first year, for being a reliable spot to come and relax and party, plus we occasionally throw quite a big rave-up every once in a while.

Right now however we are closed until further notice, following a mass exodus of tourism following the COVID-19 pandemic.
