Our Stay In Bogota: Four Seasons Hotel Casa Medina

I’ve been lucky enough to stay in a beautiful hotels worldwide, but Four Seasons Hotel Casa Medina in Bogota has simply impressed me! Traveling to picturesque and authentic cities (I definitely refer Bogota as one of them) I try to choose a hotel with a twist. As I’m more into the colonial-styled palace and historical buildings, I fell in love with Four Seasons Casa Medina, which has been declared a culture heritage site by the Colombian Ministry of Culture. It carries an exciting atmosphere and makes me feel very special. The hotel has been built in a historic house. The details of the interior like massive wooden handcrafted doors, carpets, aged leather, vintage vases and vaulted celling was amazing. They were impressed me upon arriving at the hotel and make me feel the spirit of the colonial time. Historical architectural elements was wonderfully combined with the modern luxuries.

Location

The hotel is well located. I would even say it has a perfect location in Zona G in Chapinero just steps from five-star Bogota restaurants and bakeries where we had an incredible gastronomy experience. SEE ALSO: A FOODIES GUIDE TO BOGOTA Chapinero – one of the oldest and richest part of Bogota. It is a fascinating, sprawling central neighborhood. The architecture of this area is simply amazing. It was quite enjoyable and safe to walk around.

Room

At the check-in desk we were introduced to the “Upgrade Program” and decided to upgrade our room to the executive suite with a fireplace. To have the fireplace in the room of urban hotel is very rare option, and we like it so much. Bogota’s chilly weather is wonderfully offset by the warm and romantic atmosphere of the room and especially by the fireplace.

The street view room was spacious and tastefully designed with the rich architectural details and hand-carved wooden furniture. Living area outfitted with a leather sofa, trunk coffee table, leather armchair and a romantic wood-burning fireplace. The bad was cozy and extremely comfortable.

Restaurant

The hotel has an elegant Spanish restaurant Castanyoles with outdoor terrace and indoor sheltered courtyard where we had enjoyed our breakfasts.

Truly delicious breakfast
The breakfast being served until 10.30 a.m. The food was absolutely delicious and the atmosphere was so warm and relaxing that we could enjoy our sitting till the midday. The buffet was a perfect selection of high quality cheese, ham, pastries, yogurt and fruits. I was extremely happy with an amazing Eggs Benedict with a smoked salmon. One day we had a dinner there – the Spanish cuisine was so good. We spent the beautiful evening with a romantic atmosphere, delicious food and attentive service. I highly recommend to try a delicious Columbian Coffee in Tapas Bar and check their own artful menu.  

Entertainment

Four Seasons Casa Medina Hotel offers a GYM and cozy SPA on the lower level of the hotel.

What stayed with me was the way Casa Medina made Bogotá’s cool weather part of the pleasure: hand-carved wood, aged leather, and a wood-burning fireplace in our suite. It felt less like a standard city hotel than one of the old houses I had come to Bogotá hoping to find.

blonde.travel Love the incredible start of a pretty day with delicious Eggs Benedict, smoked salmon, crisp greens and crunchy ciabatta bread in @fsbogota. ••• Обычно в меню на завтраке я читаю только верхние строки, дабы не сорваться с возгласом 'гулять так гулять' и не заказать половину всего имеющегося🙈, а потом испытывать на прочность официанта, приносящего уже третье блюдо и уверенно в очередной раз ставящего тарелку не мне… хотя нет, третью он уже неловко старается запихнуть первыми двумя (понятное дело, разве может маленькая и хрупкая девочка заказать завтрак, который можно было бы разделить между командой землекопов, только что отработавших свою дневную смену). Нет, утром я не хочу есть. Я хочу жрать. И в идеале сразу и обед, и ужин. Правильно, пока за ночь весь город с окрестностями облетишь…😂 Яйца бенедикт, копчёный лосось, хрустящий багет, вафельки, фрукты, ароматный кофе … моя прелесть. Колумбия, ты такая вкусная!!!❤️ ••• А вы любите завтракать? Или кофе с печенькой достаточно?😁 .

  1. _follow_you_dream_ Я раньше завтракала аналогично! Пока не вышла замуж, муж с утра довольствуется кофе с печенькой 🙈я сначала голодала, потом докупала пирожки по дорога на работу, а теперь привыкла, могу съесть и печеньку, но на отдыхе омлет с вкусностями обязательно каждое утро 😉

  2. vjaceslavs_sarkels @blonde.travel Как по мне,так и не сильно огромный у тебя завтрак. Вкусно,сытно и очень ярко! Я тоже обожаю завтракать. Как грится,завтра съешь сам. так что всем завтракать! )

  3. camwonderlands Eggs benedict are my favourite food ever! This is a gorgeous spread of gorgeous food 😍👏

  4. sergeroundtheworld @blonde.travel завтрак – это главная тема настоящего путешественника 😉в поездках стараюсь завтракать так, чтобы спокойно дотянуть до ужина, причём желательно следующего дня 😂😂😂на обед с тремя сменами блюд тратить время жалко, а ужин для сохранения хрупкости фигуры стараюсь пропускать✌🏼
