Asensi Towers Apartment in Medellin Colombia So what are the best hotels to stay at in Medellin?  Sure there are many excellent furnished apartments for rent by owner but there are also some really good hotels. Accor is the the world's leading hotel manager and market leader in Europe. Accorhotels.com is the Accor's international and multibrands website offering almost 4,000 hotels in 90 countries and 13 brands from budget to luxury. Medellin also has a Best Western (bestwestern.com) that is located in ElPoblado.  The hotel is on a hill overlooking the city and is in a very nice and safe part of Medellin.  I was surprised to see the famous BestWestern logo while driving in Medellin.

Retiring in Medellin Colombia?

Found a great blog today for Ex-Pats living in Medellin Colombia. http://www.expat-blog.com/en/add-blog-confirm/south-america/colombia/medellin/ Though we are currently renting out the furnished apartments in Medellin when we are not in the city I cannot wait to retire and move to Medellin in 5 years. It is such an energetic city with so much going on but at the same time a very peaceful way of life.  For some reason things seem much simpler there and I am always less stressed there. www.airbnb.com/rooms/1376870
