Great place and friendly staff. Nice terrace and garden. Kitchen available to use for budget travelers. Just be careful - many rooms have shared bathrooms and this is not easy to see when booking. To us it came as an unwelcome surprise. That being said the shared bathroom was always clean. But the room with bathroom is just $8 more expensive, so we would have preferred it.

Quiet little hideaway near everything.

Perfectly located next to San Antonio Park with quick walk to many places for shopping, dancing and food. Staff were amazing, make you feel right at home. Spent a few evening reading on the patio with only the sounds of wildlife as the ambient background, you can fall asleep if not careful.

The Magic Garden House is tucked away on a relatively quiet street next to Parque San Antonio on Carrera 10 very close to the Iglesia de San Antonio. If you are going up Carrera 10 (it is a steep hill), the House is located on the left side of the street after Cleo's Pizza Y Comida Tipica Restaurant and El Alcornorque Restarurante Bar. I say this because it is unmarked (there are no signs) and you may wander the streets with your suitcases for awhile (like I did) before you find it. Don't give up though! It is a charming place with lovely shared spaces on two floors and a nice garden/green space in the back. Some rooms have bathrooms and some don't and you will share with other guests, so double check your room if that is important to you. The place is very clean, very safe, and walkable to many areas visited by tourists. In June 2023 there was a resident dog who is an absolute love and will greet you downstairs. The rooms are spotless and spacious, but the nicest thing about the House is it's charm... plants and cozy decorations everywhere. Everyone that works there is friendly and accommodating as well. They will help you with directions, call a taxi, etc., and they have a lavadero (wash board) you can use for free to wash clothes or you can pay for laundry service. Breakfast consists of a starter plate of fruit, agua de fruta, coffee, and something hot which can vary, such as eggs or a hot sandwich. The food was great. I highly recommend this place!!!

This place lives up to its name. I had such a magical time during my entire stay. I loved my little quaint room. I enjoyed seeing the art everywhere. I very well thought out curation of antiques that reminded me of my moms antique shop. This place has a lot of soul and the breakfast is top notch nutritious that tasted so yummy. Located in the colonial San Antonio district with so many food options within walking distance. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique setting and vibes. I plan to return again later this year.

Situé juste en face du parc san Antonio, il n’y a pas de signalétique indiquant que c’est un hôtel. J’ai pris une chambre avec sdb pour 10€ de +, c’est un choix. Pdj bon, qui change tous les jours, le propriétaire se débrouille en français, le personnel est aux petits soins, la chambre était propre et confortable.

Magic garden really it is.

Small cosy place.very Nice situated right in san antonio where you have a whole view of cali city. Wonderful views , very reasonable rates. I recommend this place.i will return. The only part which could be a downside is that some rooms have to share bathrooms or have your own but outside your room. It was my first time in my life to have that kind of experience. What i can say though is worry not. Make sure to call in advance and let Them know you need your own bathroom if its importantly to you.This place is super clean and very safe.so it really dont matter much. Very good staff.the owner a lady so hard working Woman dedicated to make sure you have maximum comfort. Thankyou.good job

As the name correctly indicates, it's quite a magical place. Lovely owner and staff. Chilled and positive vibe. Great location. Can only recommend. Only small remark would be the sound isolation of the room, which could be better. Although generally it's quiet, so you'd be more than fine.
