Great location, great building. Clean.

Great Location, great building. Don’t bother taking the bigger room because it was nothing like depicted in the pictures indicating a fireplace and balcony. It was a standard room with an extra table. Bathroom was small! Breakfast is not their strength although enough to start the day. Breakfast has some extra stuff that you can buy and are not included. Hotel wants to arrange check in via WhatsApp before you arrive, what can be bothersome when traveling.

Great location, but hotel needs work in the room

The hotel is very well located, but bedding is horrible. Villa de Leyva is very cold and it has just a couple of thin blankets, so at night you can feel the weather. Pillows are in plastic material and have the sheet over, so it’s not that comfortable. It is dog friendly so you can expect a 5am bark in the room next to you. It’s not a couples hotel to be able to sleep in.

Lack of Managment

Horrible experience. I recently stayed at Hotel Plaza Mayor in Villa de Leyva, Colombia, with high expectations due to past experiences. Unfortunately, the hotel failed to meet these expectations in various ways. Despite the beautiful location and terrace, our stay was marred by poor customer service and management issues. The restaurant manager, Sofia, was unhelpful and rude, failing to deliver on promised surprises for my birthday. The waitress was excellent, but her efforts couldn't compensate for Sofia's poor attitude. We were also kicked out of the terrace after 10 pm, and a pre-paid mariachi serenade was disrupted due to false complaints from other guests. Upon arrival, no one offered to help with our luggage, and the front desk staff showed no sense of urgency or customer service skills. The TV in our room didn't work, and when we reported it, the staff offered to help at midnight, which we refused. When we returned to the hotel, the TV still wasn't working, and we were moved to another room, where we found a dirty bathroom and a shower full of black hair (despite my wife being blonde). These issues stem from a lack of training and operational leadership, leaving us extremely dissatisfied and ruining my birthday weekend. I would not recommend this hotel until management addresses these issues."
