Tucked high above the clouds, this simple and soulful inn offers quiet rooms, hot showers, and a breathtaking view of the Andes. There’s no Wi-Fi in the rooms (to support digital rest), but you can connect in the common area if needed. Please note: check-in is before 6:00 PM, and this is a no-smoking, no-pets, and strictly drug-free place (Prescribed medications for health conditions are, of course, welcome.) Hilltop Inn is more than just a stay — It’s a space for reflection and renewal, surrounded by birdsong, mountain air, and stillness. We offer pottery, Tai Chi, Qigong, and Asian cooking classes on a donation basis for those who wish to slow down, reconnect with nature, and breathe in the quiet spirit of the mountain. 🏔️ Guest access Guests have access to their entire private cabin, surrounded by panoramic mountain views and peaceful nature. A laundry machine is available for use during your stay. You may also request access to our pottery studio, a quiet, creative space nestled in the mountains, if you wish to explore your hands and heart in clay. 🏔️ Other things to note Once the sun goes down, the mountain becomes very dark and deeply quiet. This is home to many wild creatures, and we wish to honor their space and rhythm. For this reason, we ask all guests to arrive and check in before 6:00 PM, so you can settle in safely and gently move into the mountain’s natural rhythm. 🌙
