Michelin Guide "Set inside a Colonial-style building, now a National Historical Conservation Monument, Casa Medina enjoys a location close to shopping."
Star Service "Located on a quiet street in the business and residential district, 30 minutes from Bogota's city center, 45 minutes from the airport, this is one of the first boutique-hotels in Colombia." Full review

Service is personalized and first-rate, but advance special requests are typically ignored.
Travel + Leisure "Half of the 62 rooms are in the original estate; with slanted wooden beams, hand-carved doors, and fireplaces, they retain the intimacy of a residential guesthouse." Full review

Be sure to stop by the sun-filled courtyard that connects the two buildings.

"Stately hotel in a stone-and-brick building incorporating elements salvaged from two demolished colonial convents." Full review
Fodor's "Public spaces, like the stone, ivy-covered courtyard next to the restaurant, are inviting. Guest rooms have handcrafted furnishings that ooze old-world class, like aged-leather sofas." Full review

"The Four Seasons Hotel Casa Medina entwines its 1940s colonial history with a splash of contemporary Colombia." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Award
"But because of its relatively small size, ultra-personalized service, and expertly restored architecture it feels like staying in a private mansion, not with a five-star hotel chain." Full review

Michelin Guide "A good choice if you're on a budget, the Platypus gives you value for your money. It's located in the historic La Candelaria district."
Lonely Planet "The hostel fills three homes with simple, clean rooms. There's a cozy kitchen area, and friendly staff (including Germán) offer great travel info."
i
Reserve ahead, and if possible, stick to the main building rather than some 14 annexed beds nearby.
