Wyndham Bogota
$85-130 / noche
Reserva esto si You have a visa appointment at the US Embassy, a trade show at Corferias, or an overnight layover and refuse to sacrifice gym time.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Walking distance to the US Embassy (literally across the street)
- Access to a massive, professional-grade gym (Spinning Center) with an indoor pool
- Reliable, hourly free airport shuttle that actually runs on time
Resumen rápido: It’s the most comfortable waiting room in Bogotá—sterile, efficient, and perfectly soundproofed against the chaotic avenue outside.
Reseñado por @cvvergara1: I stayed here for a work trip and was blown away. The art-filled lobby sets a cool tone, but the sunset views from the terrace stole the show. My room was spacious with great energy, and the cocktails at the bar were the perfect end to the day. Highly recommend.

Reality check
Breakfast gets mixed reviews—some love the variety, others find the quality inconsistent and the coffee lukewarm.
- You need to be at the US Embassy at 7:00 AM sharp
- You are a fitness junkie who hates hotel gyms with one broken treadmill
- You want a guaranteed quiet night's sleep near the airport

- Uber works well here, but set your pickup location carefully as the avenue is busy.
- The altitude in Bogotá (2,600m) is real; drink water and take it easy the first day.
Qué llevar

Consejos de Insiders

The 'Executive Lounge' on the 9th floor has a happy hour with free wine and snacks—worth the upgrade if you plan to stay in.
- ✨
Walk 2 minutes to 'Crepes & Waffles' for a reliable, delicious, and cheap Colombian dining staple.

On Sundays, the main avenue closes for 'Ciclovía' (bike path)—great for a morning walk, bad for catching a taxi.
