This hotel is all about Richard. They should pay him double whatever they are paying him. Richard greeted me on arrival, welcomed me, fixed my safe, made and served breakfast, let me in and out the door, gave me an umbrella, helped me with Ubers, tours, and directions, and walked me to my Uber when I left. The property is aesthetically remarkable with sprawling, luxurious rooms, an amazing included made-to-order breakfast, free wifi, an in room safe and a fabulous location walking distance to all tours and all things historic! The ONLY reason I have this a four rating, which would’ve been a 2 or 3 without Richard, is that there was limited hot water, construction carrying on outside the room, rusted out stairs, unnecessarily oversized room keys, NO temperature control available, you could hear the rain dripping on the inside of the ceiling from the roof, the fire alarm needed batteries and beeped for three days, and you have to be buzzed in and literally let out the door. This is remarkably inconvenient, particularly when it’s pouring down rain and there’s no overhang. Also, Uber will drop you off here but not pick you up here. Have Richard assist you. He was TRULY remarkable.

Exceptional accommodations, location and staff!
The hotel is a converted historic house located in the heart of the historic district with large rooms that are beautifully decorated. What also really stood out was the staff who were incredibly courteous and always made you feel at home. Special requests were always accommodated and handled cheerfully and efficiently.

The Orchids, Be Amazed As You Secretly Enter....
Bogota Colombia comes alive in the area where The Orchids is located. Close to impressive important historical and cultural sites (within walking distance). Don't look for The Orchids hotel to stand out with bright signage and impressive driveways but be amazed as you are secretly allowed to enter it's tiny doors. The Orchids is a historical, elegant and delicately restored gem. Enjoy the difference between feeling and being treated like royalty in the hotel and the edgy feel of the busy streets and the Plaza de Bolivar and downtown Bogota steps away. The Orchids staff is knowledgeable and professional. attentive to your every need. Impressive stay.

Beautiful, but overpriced and a bit dysfunctional
I stayed at The Orchids for several nights while on business in Bogota. The hotel was gorgeous, but overpriced for what it is. The walls are very thin so while working or trying to rest during the day I could clearly hear the staff talking loudly and goofing around on the floor below. There also is no heating, so the staff helpfully brought a portable fire place. On the second night, however, the fire place began smoking and set off the fire alarm in the entire hotel. My room smelled like kerosene after that. Finally, on my first morning the breakfast person was late, causing me to miss breakfast because I had to get to a meeting that morning. Perks were the delicious breakfast (when available), friendly staff and the ambience. I wouldn't stay here again, however.

Very nice hotel and attention. The bad: complicated shower, and loses hot water soon. So, in a 2-person run of the shower, the 2nd person gets only cold water!

Great location, Elegant style
When I stayed here, I felt like back to the middle century. The room was very elegant and staffs are very kind. Breakfast was great! One thing, There's no heating system. So, it could be cold during the night in December. However, hotel is located very close with Botero Museum and Bolivar square, so it's great to walk around La Candelaria area.

Superbe hotel pour visiter la candelaria de Bogota
L'hotel est splendide, dans le plus pur style des maison authentiques de la Candelaria. C'est juste a coté de la place Simon Bolivar, en plein coeur du centre historique de Bogota qui est aussi le plus beau quartier et de loin. Franchement parfait
