Jericó has several budget options for hotels. It’s best to go and ask around. Most of the accommodation is within a couple blocks of each other.
Hotels
We stayed at Hotel Portón Plaza. It sits just a block from the plaza. Our friends stayed at Hotel Atenas, which had rates including breakfast. Both hotels had decent wifi.
El Balcón
For lunch we ate at El Balcón on the plaza. They served decent meat and fish dishes at reasonable prices.
Rapi-ya
We ended up running a bit late for dinner and most of the restaurants were closed by 9pm, so we ate at Rapi-ya, a fast food joint on the plaza. Service was excellent and the food was also great. They had big selection on the menu of fast food and not so fast food.
Getting There
To get to Jericó, you can take a bus from Terminal del Sur in Medellín with Transportes Jericó. Buses run from 5am to 6pm. You can also take a more comfortable shared taxi with four passengers.
If coming from the south, you can take any bus bound for Bolombolo via La Pintada and have the driver stop at the entrance to Jericó. You can then wait for a bus to pass by and hop on.
