Although the situation has improved a lot in the past few years, the hotel industry in Colombia<\/strong> is, in many aspects, still in its infancy. This is particularly owing to a blurry set of rules regarding the stars rating, and the local widespread – and mistaken- perception that any property that bears less than four stars or the word “boutique” in its name is little more than a dumpster. There is, therefore, a large amount of local hotels that call themselves 4-5 stars (or boutique)<\/strong> and are not at all worthy of the rating by any international standard.<\/p>\n

Here at See Colombia<\/strong> we strive to standarize our services to international requirements and hand-pick hotels that reflect the class of service we want to provide.<\/strong> We wish to classify them based on each client’s distinct type of traveling – regardless of how many stars they claim to have.<\/p>\n

Here’s a list of 4 Hotels in 4 colombian destinations<\/strong> that we define as hotels with “unique personalities”<\/strong>. These hotels come with great service<\/strong>, are very comfortable,<\/strong> well-located<\/strong> and have characteristics that make them outstanding<\/strong> in comparison with simirlaly priced\/located ones.<\/p>\n

Bogota<\/strong><\/em> \u00a0Hotel Gaitan Cortes<\/h3>\n

\"Hotel<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: Bogota’s Zona G , the gourmet district of the city in Chapinero<\/strong> which is lively but not noisy and very pleasant to walk around. .<\/p>\n

Outstanding characteristic<\/strong>: The beautiful 50’s Bogota chic decor<\/strong> and architecture that tells a unique story by itself.<\/p>\n

Medellin<\/strong><\/em> Hotel The Charlee<\/h3>\n

\"Hotel<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Location:<\/strong> Parque Lleras, close to Medellin’s best restaurants and bars.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Outstanding characteristic: <\/strong>The place to be in Medellin if you enjoy art and fashion, and the incredible rooftop terrace.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Santa Marta<\/strong><\/em> Hotel Casa de Isabella<\/h3>\n

\"Hotel<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Location:<\/strong>\u00a0 Centro Historico, the Old City of Santa Marta which holds buildings that reflect traditional Mudejar architecture<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Outstanding characteristic<\/strong>:\u00a0Perfect blend \u00a0of the simplicity of Santa Marta’s natural settings<\/strong> and elegant tradition \u00a0with \u00a0modern comforts<\/strong>, Including \u00a0a personal rooftop pool, complimentary I-Pads, and Apple TV,<\/p>\n

Cartagena<\/strong><\/em> Hotel Delirio<\/h3>\n


\n<\/strong>\"Cartagena<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Location:<\/strong>\u00a0Right in the heart of the old city, walking distance to everywhere.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Outstanding characteristic:<\/strong> Its immaculate, minimalistic and stylish<\/strong> decoration that enhances the beauty of Cartagena’s traditional and colorful sorroundings.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Some tips to find the hotel that fits your requirements \u00a0in Colombia<\/h3>\n

– Look for more information apart from each hotel’s own website<\/strong> – remember the stars classification is not always on par with international standards.<\/p>\n

– Check traveler generated websites<\/strong> like\u00a0Trip Advisor<\/a>, taking into account there have been reports of fake tripadvisor reviews<\/a> in the past. Check the past reviews from the same person. If they have just one bad review for a specific property they’re probably fake.<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Check hotel finder websites<\/strong> such as Trivago<\/a>\u00a0to have a full spectrum of your options.<\/p>\n

– Trust a reliable Colombia travel agency<\/a>, such \u00a0as \u00a0yours truly,\u00a0that actually has inspected and classified properly every property.<\/p>\n
