Fodor's "One of Bogotá's oldest and most refined hotels is now part of the Crowne Plaza chain. Its rooms have been updated to 21st century standards and offer impressive city views too."
Michelin Guide "Combining elegance, comfort and modern technology with the highest standards of service, this hotel lies in the heart of Bogota."
i
Ask for a room at the back of the hotel to avoid traffic noise.
Star Service "The Crowne Plaza Tequendama, built in the 1950s, is the grand old lady of Bogota." Full review
i
Management is aloof and almost nonexistent in the face of special requests, placing this hotel firmly at the bottom of Bogota's list of brand-name hotels.
Lonely Planet "This big, busy, all-about-business hotel may be showing its age slightly, but its location in the Centro Internacional makes it a convenient base for conferencing or sightseeing."
Platypus Hostel Michelin Guide Lonely Planet
Calle 16 No 2-43, Bogota, Colombia
From $0/night
- Free Internet
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.
