In the heart of colonial Bogota you will find a nice and comfort house. A friendly staff will welcome you. The Hostel has been designed for travelers. It includes a restaurant and bar but also all the services you need: Internet, telephone, laundry, bicycle rent, tourist info... We offer you a 24h/24 service (No curfew but the sound must be turned down at night) We are located in the old Colonial city center, what is nowadays the most touristic part of Bogota and the safest place in the city. To come from the airport, any taxi can bring you to us, what is the option we recommend, especially for a first time in Bogota. If you want to know how to go to the hostel using buses, please contact us. If using the public transport system Transmilenio (the big red buses), you'll have to go to the "Museo del Oro" station, then it will be a 5 minutes walk to go to the hostel. Ask a policeman your way! (yes, you can trust them!) |
