Caratteristico boutique hotel nel quartiere storico La Candelaria
Pros:

Caratteristico boutique hotel nel quartiere storico La Candelara di Bogotà a pochi passi dal museo di Botero e da Plaza Bolivar.
L'hotel si trova in un palazzo d’poca ben curato con poche stanze ampie, pulite e raffinate, letto spazioso e molto comodo. Staff cordiale e gentile, colazione ottima.

Cons:

Camera un po’ fredda e wifi ballerino.

Wonderful stay in the heart of the historic center
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at The Orchids! The hotel is set in a beautiful, charming building with unique and tasteful décor. Our room was incredibly spacious, comfortable, and elegant.

The location is perfect, right in the heart of La Candelaria, making it easy to explore Bogotá’s historic center on foot. The breakfast was delicious and prepared with great care. We were also extremely impressed by the laundry service—they washed and returned our clothes in just two hours!

A very special thank you to Richard, who made our stay even more memorable. He was always attentive, helpful, kind, and genuinely caring. His warm hospitality made us feel truly welcome.

The Orchids is a beautiful and unique hotel that we would highly recommend to anyone visiting Bogotá!

Pros:

Good location and nice large rooms which were very clean . The staff were fabulous and nice breakfast .
We had a room which looked over an internal courtyard which was a bit dark.
But if you had a room overlooking the street then it may be quite noisy, as it’s crazy busy once you are outside the hotel .

Una cápsula del tiempo en el Centro Histórico de Bogotá
Pros:

Absolutamente todo, Francisco fue un anfitrión a la altura de la elegancia del hotel, la habitación de ensueño, el desayuno y las instalaciones de primer nivel

Cons:

Solo un detalle, quizás fue la ubicación del módem del cable operador, pero tenía una luz azul que solo pudimos apagar desconectándola porque casi no nos deja dormir, es algo que no me ha pasado en ningún hotel y me llamó la atención. Creo que deberían tener alternativas para tener más cobijas, nosotros no las pedimos, pero para una ciudad como Bogotás ideal tenerlas en la misma habitación y tener que pedirlas en recepción o algo así
