Magical place to stay

If you are looking for a very affordable hotel this is it. If you get a room downstairs it may be a little noisy in the AM after 8 as it is an older place and the walls are thin and the doors made of stained glass. No joke but very safe and secure. Just a few minute walk to Bolivar Square and Botero museums. We adored this hotel.

Flea bitten palace

First, the good. This hotel is housed in a fabulous Victorian palace close to Plaza Bolovar, the BOTERO, and some excellent restaurants. The block itself is a Jewelry row, mostly discount places that both buy and sell. The rooms are inventively and charmingly adapted. The courtyard and public spaces are fabulous with what appears to be period furniture and numerous art works. The area is relatively safe but the Candelaria does have late night robberies, often of people walking from the bars. Hot water scarce after 8:30 am but good earlier. Free breakfast was nothing special, though i loved the covered courtyard where it was served. This hotel was very affordable for the size and quality of the rooms, the public spaces, and the good location. The bad: I got some fresh insect bites while sleeping there, most likely bed bugs. The front desk didn’t give me the impression that they were going to get right on it. It’s an expensive problem, hard to fix, the front desk guy said. And maybe I just got bitten “out in the world”, by mosquitoes or something. The bite pattern I had was more typical of bed bugs. Desm staff didn’t speak much English so we had to enlist the aid of another guest to translate. Bedbugs are an unfortunate reality these days, and any hotel, regardless of price or cleanliness, can be affected. However the staff here didn’t treat the issue with the urgency it called for, or indicate that they were going to do anything at all.

This is a unique place to stay - an affordable 200 yr old house with many of the rooms including sitting areas. However, these rooms wouldn’t suit anyone with mobility issues as they involve stairs up to a loft bedroom. There are also multiple lounge areas for guests to relax amongst a mix of antiques and tchotchkes. The staff were exceedingly pleasant to deal with, and the breakfast delicious (if repetitive) - the raspberry jam was so good. The location was absolutely perfect for seeing everything in the neighbourhood, but situated on a quieter street. Just around the corner from the Botero museum complex, La Puerta Falsa and a few blocks from Plaza Bolivar and the Pasaje Rivas market.

Great spot in La Candelaria

We enjoyed our three nights in Bogotá in large part because of the great location of this hotel in La Candelaria. We could safely and quickly walk to all the sights we wanted to see. The hotel was a historical, rambling building with many nooks and crannies. There were several common areas, and we had a choice of our rooms. Our rooms were comfortable and clean, though the stairs to the loft were a little perilous. The included breakfast was nice. Finally, Joanna at the front desk was friendly and helpful, coordinating our transportation and giving us recommendations.

I had booked 5 nights and left after 1. My room had only a glass wall between it and the dining and piano(!) areas. I was awakened at 7 when people loudly went to breakfast. The WIFI was weak, so I could not work. I went to a real hotel, not a house that calls itself a hotel. Naturally, The staff did not refund any of my remaining prepaid 4 nights.

Very good experience

This was a very good surprise, and I’m sure it qualifies as a hidden gem, If you’re looking for a stay in downtown Bogotá. The overall value is very good, and you will have a great time if you understand that it’s an old traditional mansion, that was converted to Hotel. It’s comfortable enough, but has the normal issues with the lack of 5-star amenities. We really liked our stay and would certainly go back if needed to stay downtown.

Really nice, charming place. You should be aware however that the rooms do not have any windows to the outside (there are windows in the door that open to the interior space). Loud pigeons in the morning, if you are on the top floor, but it is a really nice little loft space. The breakfast is pretty basic. I'm allergic to gluten and asked for no toast. I just got scrambled eggs and untoasted bread (which I ignored) and coffe.

Quirky is GOOD!

If you like charm, antiquities, and quirkiness, this is the place for you! In the fun La Candelaria district, you can't beat the value for this hidden inn. It's almost like staying in an Escher print (if you don't get that, move on), with the rambling halls, staircases, lofts, surprise courtyards, and tiny two-person chapel! Friendly front staff (24 hours) and delightfully old-world.

Não vale a nota q tem!

A meu ver, a nota está acima do q é. Isto ñ significa q seja um hotel ruim, mas tem coisas são relevantes. O principal, é a falta de "privacidade auditiva". Do meu quarto, escutava-se tudo q se conversava na recepção e dos quartos vizinhos; sem falar no ruído qdo andavam no quarto de cima. O prédio é antigo, com piso de madeira. O box do chuveiro ñ é fechado e a água varia muito de temperatura. Achei desnecessário a atendente me dizer q, caso houvesse alguma mancha no lençol, eu seria cobrado. No máximo, isto deveria estar escrito num normativo. O hotel é bastante limpo; a cama é ótima e o café-da-manhã, razoável. A localização é excelente!
