    Nice place to stay if you want to move from one touristic place to another. Big city so you need to be careful after 5:30 pm. However there is a lot of art places, nice museums and good places to do some shopping. Avoid Vicentino and the 7th after 4:00 pm

    Absolutely loved the Gold Museum and the Botero Museum.

    Absolutely loved the Gold Museum and the Botero Museum. Both were outstanding. The National Museum was slightly disappointing on the pre Columbian material after visiting the Gold Museum. Monserrate worth a visit on the hill as the views are spectacular. Try to take the cable car as the funicular was a bit claustrophobic. But tickets in advance. If you walk up or down the hill make sure you have good shoes to walk in It was a good city to walk around. La Candelaria is a nice area and I wish I had time for a walking tour there. The graffiti in Bogota is spectacular and again with more time I would have done another tour. Some of the craft beer is excellent and there is a lot of it. Be careful at dusk and at night especially if alone. You can feel a little isolated at times and there is some aggressive begging . Overall an excellent city to visit for a few days.

    Bogota is a large and interesting city with no shortage of places to visit beyond the well-known galleries and museums. While many people have some English, particularly those under 30 or working in hotels or better quality restaurants, having some Spanish is very helpful or use a translating app. To get around I found Ubers quite inexpensive and readily available, but allow plenty of time for travel as Bogota's traffic is notoriously heavy. Several locals warned me not to use the Transmillenio bus system for fear of robbery and its complexity. There are no trains. I stayed in the northern suburbs (Calle 100) which is more middle class and is said to be safer than the central city area. It's an interesting area to walk around and there are a number of large pleasant parks and well-priced good restaurants and shopping centres. The Parque de Chico - Mercedes Hacienda - with its lovely heritage house and the nearby (short walk) home and studio of Enrique Grau who died in 2004 are recommended. A high level of personal security awareness is essential - eg secure wallets, leave your passport at the hotel but carry some photo identification such as a driver's licence as many museums etc require it for admission. Acceptance of of debit/credit cards is far from universal so carry Colombian Pesos in small notes.

    Bogota captures unique Columbian culture beautifully,...

    Bogota captures unique Columbian culture beautifully, especially closer to La Candelaria. As you head north from there it will be cleaner and more modern especially near Zona T. The walk from Centro Industrial area (Santa Fe) to La Candelaria is fun with many street vendors offering food and new/used items. Lots of ATMs and foreign exchange location along the way, you will need COP but established business take credit card sometimes with a fee. The language is all Spanish, our translator app came in handy would recommend you install one for your trip if needed. The weather is cool as city at 8k feet elevation. We visited in April with daytime highs in 60s but carry a light jacket as sun sets and temps drop to 50s. Interestingly, not many people in shorts, you will stand it if you where them. Taxis everywhere, but we used Uber which worked really well and cheap maybe $8 for a 25min ride. Dollar strong vs COP, you can get a decent meal from $4 for meal of day style to $20 for a higher end fish place. Street food $1 hamburger and $2 chicken/beef stick. Museums are great, lots of over 60 free or just a few bucks to see Bontero and Picasso originals. We felt very safe even down in La Candelaria, never saw pickpocketing or theft but just a few requests for money during day and early evening. Was not out late evening so not sure about then.

    Helpful, professional, young staff. I was flying in and out of Bogota twice in one week and they gave me the name and number of a driver/driving company that was also incredibly professional and helpful for pick up and drop off to airport. I stored a bag at the hotel between trips. They suggested a nice place for a pedicure. Quiet, residential neighborhood. Restaurants and stores very close by. The rooms are clean and bright and happy.

The staff is so friendly and provides me with anything I needed. The room is so comfy and I especially enjoyed the view from my window. Everything is so clean in this property - the room, the bathroom and the common area. I really love staying here, and would definitely come back to stay if I visit Bogota again.

Small tasteful and full of details bedrooms. The complementary toiletries are spa like. I had to ask to let me buy a body lotion because the smell was so fabulous. The staff, is cordial and helpful.
