Hotels near Villa Verde Pereira Park, Pereira

This was my fifth trip to Pereira but the first time staying at the Movich. I can say that this was by-far the best stay I have ever had. The location is perfect - close to everything you could need, connected to Plaza Pereira (a mall with shops and food court) and located directly on the popular Circunvalar. This is where you will find an endless array of restaurants, bars, cafes, coffee places and stores within walking distance of the hotel. Midway during our stay, we decided to extend our stay and book the Premium King room - this gives you access to the 9th floor VIP area with food, drinks, coffee and a very nice place to sit (and if you need to, work) away from your room. Every staff member we met with was wonderful, but I MUST compliment and thank the security team who made every entrance and exit from the hotel safe. The area overall is safe, but there's always a few panhandlers. Twice while arriving at night, a panhandler came up to our car asking for change. Security was outside and removing the person within seconds. I cannot say enough about how safe we felt and how seriously the hotel overall takes guest security. BIG shoutout to the breakfast buffet team, especially the young man who takes care of the egg/omelet station. I enjoyed speaking with him everyday and he always made our breakfast perfectly. Additionally, our waiter Robinson was always available to assist and ensure that we had a great experience. We did not use the pool but the hotel has wonderful amenities: gym, pool, outdoor patio, restaurant, bar, etc.

This is a very dated hotel and the section of town that it’s in is not the best. It appeared that there were some gangs hanging out across the street. Internet service was spotty because there is a tendency for the power to go out in the city and the generator at the hotel is dated and not reliable. That’s being said the front desk was wonderful. Very helpful and responsive. I had one of the rooms with a large balcony facing the street. Yes, there was some noise but very comfortable and spacious.

We experienced an earthquake during our stay. The team was very attentive, keeping us calm so we could leave the hotel until we knew it was safe to return.

We went to the spa and it was amazing. They have an infinity pool on one level and a jacuzzi, sauna and turkish bath on the lower level. We had the spa program called Restore spa. It had the sauna, turkish bath , jacuzzi as well as the whole body massage, exfoliation, facial hydration. There’s also dinner and the food was superb.
