Santa Barbara Real - Bogotá

Great! So good. Amazing stay! The prices are amazing.

Really good hotel for the price.

Really a jewel for what it is. I was in 3 star hotels in all USA and Canada and absolutely none of them can beat Hotel Santa Barbara Real in quality or value. I have a deal through TLX travels and spent $95 USD for four nights. The room had basic amenities and was simple, but recently updated and very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast staff was absolutely amazing. Breakfast was wonderful, fresh Colombian coffee, juice, tea and made to order eggs, toast, cereals... really an incomparable experience for those of us who are used in 3 star hotels in North America. Try the Happy Hour in the Italian restaurant... 3 beers or wine with an average pizza for $7 USD! The neighborhood feels pretty safe, and is a 10-minute walk from an amazing cultural center, Usaquen Park, with many restaurants and cafes with a large street market Saturday-Monday. Only 30 minutes $10) drive from all important Bogota attractions.

I have stayed at this hotel several times. The service has always been good and the free breakfast is a true breakfast (unlike in the US), with very good coffee, fresh fruit, eggs to order, and a good selection of pastries. The room is not very large, but it's adequate, and it's clean. I found the front desk to be helpful and friendly. Important too is its proximity to Unicentro, very good restaurants and medical buildings. I'm still surprised that the price is so reasonable for this hotel.

I give this a 4 star rating because the room lacked wall Jack's in convenient places. Not that I'm being picky, but commodity is key in every aspect. Nonetheless, it's a nice hotel, the people at the front desk were very nice. The rooms and bed sheets were clean (as far as I saw).
