The essence of Mama Shelter
Being the first of the brand in the country and being a unique place for its surroundings, amenities and good architecture, this new property will attract locals, tourists, and potential investors, becoming an icon of Medellin.
More than rooms or restaurants, Mama Shelter is a place to live an extraordinary experience, as it is an authentic urban refuge, modern, popular, fun and warm. Mama Shelter will open its doors to people of all ages and places to meet and share good home cooking prepared by the chefs, or a cocktail prepared by the barmaid and bartender.
It also offers comfortable and relaxing meeting rooms to boost visitors' creativity, or its stores, one of them on-line, with the best articles and collaborations, and even state-of-the-art technology such as free access to movies and wifi.
With an estimate investment of US$ 30million, the DALVAL INVERSIONES fund is the Colombian real estate manager that, together with Skema Promotora and Macca, capitalises on the talent and experience of companies from Valle and Antioquia in the structuring and development of this modern project.
