Who said you have to wait until the weekend? Discover Pamplona and Chinácota during the week

Some people eagerly await Friday so they can pack their bags and escape their daily routine. However, more and more travelers are discovering that the best times to relax, reconnect, and enjoy new experiences don’t necessarily come on the weekend. Traveling during the week has a special charm: it’s more peaceful, there are fewer lines, more options are available, and you have the opportunity to enjoy each place at a different pace.
In the heart of Norte de Santander, Pamplona and Chinácota are two perfect destinations for treating yourself to a break any day of the week. Surrounded by mountains, fresh air, great cuisine, and landscapes that invite you to disconnect from the stress of daily life, both towns offer the ideal setting for a getaway that rejuvenates both body and mind.


At Hotel Cariongo, we believe you don't have to wait for a long vacation to experience unforgettable moments. Sometimes all it takes is a couple of days to get away from it all, take a deep breath, and come back feeling reenergized.
The luxury of traveling when everyone else is working
One of the biggest benefits of traveling between Monday and Thursday is the peace and quiet. Destinations tend to be less crowded, allowing you to stroll through the streets, enjoy the restaurants, and admire the scenery without the hustle and bustle typical of weekends.
In Pamplona, strolling through the historic center on a weekday allows you to leisurely appreciate the colonial architecture, churches, parks, and every corner that preserves an important part of Colombia’s history. Its cobblestone streets, cool climate, and the hospitality of its residents make every walk an authentic experience.
For its part, Chinácota invites visitors to slow down. Its green landscapes, rural atmosphere, and pleasant mountain climate are perfect for those looking to escape the noise of the city. Here, time seems to pass more slowly, allowing visitors to enjoy long conversations, a good cup of coffee, or simply take in the natural surroundings.
A break that also promotes your well-being
The fast pace of work and our daily responsibilities can make us forget the importance of rest.
Various studies show that taking breaks, changing your surroundings, and setting aside time to rest help reduce stress, improve your mood, and restore your energy.
It's not always necessary to take a full week of vacation. A two- or three-night getaway can make a big difference.
Imagine waking up to the crisp air of Pamplona or the tranquility of Chinácota, enjoying a leisurely breakfast, strolling through the streets, discovering new flavors, and ending the day relaxing in a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere.
It's those little moments that often end up becoming the most special memories.
Cuisine to enjoy at a leisurely pace
Traveling is also about discovering new flavors.
During a stay at any of the Cariongo Hotel locations, guests can enjoy a dining experience designed for sharing, relaxing, and enjoying a well-rounded experience.
Whether it's after a walk through Pamplona's historic center or an afternoon exploring the landscapes of Chinácota, there's always a place to sit down at a table and enjoy a good meal in a pleasant atmosphere.
Because a trip is remembered not only for the places you visit, but also for the flavors that accompany each experience.
The perfect time to work differently. More and more people are able to work from anywhere on certain days. If that’s you, why not swap the office for a mountain landscape?
Many travelers take advantage of a midweek stay to combine a few hours of work with some downtime. After taking care of their responsibilities, the rest of the day can be an opportunity to explore the destination, enjoy the local cuisine, or simply relax.
It's a different way to approach the week and find a better balance between productivity and well-being.
Two destinations, one hospitality experience
Although Pamplona and Chinácota have different characters, both locations of the Hotel Cariongo share the same goal: to make every guest feel at home.
In Pamplona, you'll find the perfect setting to discover the history, culture, and traditions of one of the department's most iconic towns.
In Chinácota, you'll enjoy a setting surrounded by nature—perfect for relaxing and spending time with your partner, family, or friends.
No matter which one you choose, both locations are ready to provide you with comfort, excellent service, and the opportunity to enjoy an unforgettable experience.
Don't wait for the next long weekend
We often put off traveling until a long weekend or vacation, but those are precisely the times when destinations receive the most visitors.
On weekdays, it's the exact opposite: it's quieter, there's more availability, and the atmosphere is perfect for truly unwinding.
If you've been thinking about treating yourself to a break for a while, now might be the best time to do it.
Pack what you need, leave your routine behind for a few days, and let Pamplona or Chinácota surprise you with their scenery, their tranquility, and the warmth of their people.
Your next getaway can start today. At Hotel Cariongo, we want you to discover just how enjoyable traveling during the week can be.
