Located at the heart of Zona Rosa, the intimate modern setting of Four Seasons Hotel Bogota lives in harmony with the energy of the cafes, shops, restaurants, bars, and clubs that give the area its buzz and flow.
To start with, all guest rooms are designed under high standards of comfort, with a sense of space and privacy. Each room has a slightly different design to assure a sweet retreat or peaceful place to work. Neighbourhood or street views, lots of natural light and large windows, hardwood floors, hand-knotted carpets, marble bathrooms, are some of their special features, with suites accounting for almost half of the 64 guest rooms the Hotel has. Options to stay for weeks or months are available, or if visiting for two days and wanting to extend it, the third night is free.
The Penthouse Suite is an apartment-like suite that summarizes the comforting sophistication of Four Seasons Hotel: a private terrace, a wood-burning fireplace, a spa-like bathroom, a king bed dressed in 600-thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets, and fresh flowers, to make it unique. The decor is inspired by the deep, vivid emerald green colour, so symbolic of tropical Colombia’s aura of luxury.
Dining at Four Seasons Hotel Bogotá is also very special. La Biblioteca restaurant is a modern lounge with all-day service wrapped in the fresh and delicate aroma of the best Colombian coffee and culinary delicacies. A buffet breakfast a la carte is waiting to host guests, and all visitors, since it is open to the public. It includes the best of local fruits; national and international breads and pastries; delicious egg-based dishes; a selection of artisanal cheeses, grilled chorizos, and traditional arepas; and the famous Colombian calentado – made with white rice, hogao (a “criolla” tomato and onion based seasoning sauce), beans, chorizo, shredded beef, plantains, and eggs any style. These delights continue with the restaurant’s lunch and dinner menu, with signature dishes such as the seafood rice, the braised oxtail (a Colombian traditional dish in which a well-seasoned meat is slow cooked for about 8 hours,) ceviches, tartars, various cuts of meat, poultry and fish prepared in the most professional way, and a sweet closure inspired by typical local desserts, perfumed with aromatic fruits and fine cacao. A luxury in-room dining service is always available for guests having a private meeting, wanting some quiet time, or fully recharging on their travel journey.
The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel Bogota is open not only to guests, but to everyone that wants to relax and unwind for a few hours or an entire day, as well. There is a special cabin for couples full of mystic and glamour, and the best of facials, body treatments, and nail services. The Spa’s signature retreats are the Colombian green-coffee wrap, which uses natural enzymes to improve skin, and a 30 minute massage for the neck and back (for a total of 120 minute treatment). The Citrus Paradise Ritual (another 120 minute treatment), consisting of a grapefruit scrub followed by a body wrap, includes a 30 minute relaxing massage for the neck and back infused with the freshness and revitalizing properties of this fruit.
The Hotel’s commitment with the environment and with leaving an enduring impact in local communities shows in several initiatives. Under the global Environmental, Social, and Governmental (ESG) Four Seasons brand’s efforts – and the “Colombian Environmental Stamp” granted by the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development of Colombia – different environmental programs are developed. Among them are bicycles tours, vegan and vegetarian menu items, linen and towels replacements every third day (unless otherwise requested), energy, carbon, and water reduction (no single-use plastic bottles and containers), a recycling and organic waste program, use of eco-certified cleaning products, and use of local boutique products at the Spa.
Last but not least, organizations of corporate meetings and events, private city tours to surrounding areas with fun and interesting landmarks, and helicopter journeys, are available thanks to a team right on hand to take care of every single detail. Business, vacation, romance, or a well deserved break, are all the ultimate inspiration of the Hotel’s hospitality. Four Seasons Hotel Bogota honours and embraces that mission and raison d'être.
