Hotel Portofino — Hotel in Bogota, Capital District

As someone who has visited Bogota and Colombia for the first time, I decided to stay here. The location on the hotel was very good. The hotel was located just off calle 53, in Galerias area, with Carulla supermarket which is 24 hours just across the road. Loads of places to eat right next to the hotel such as KFC, McDonald's, halal y Carnes restaurant, and many others. Also loads of bars less than 3 mins walk away. This place is very close to anything you'll need during your stay. It is also just off calle 53, so not directly on the main road, but just off it. And you only need to walk 5 seconds off the main road to access the entrance to the hotel. Being so close to the main road though, you can hear the music from one of the bars which is right behind the hotel at night so it may not be ideal for light sleepers. You can also hear some noises from the main road.|The room itself had a double bed, desk, wardrobe and side desk with lamp and draws. Decent size and facilities. |En suite private bathroom with toilet, shower, and sink. The bathroom didn't have any shower gel but did have soap. The shower was decent. The views out of the window were amazing. But it seems that it may be the case from any window in Bogota. |The breakfast that was served was decent. Usually came with scrambled eggs with tomatoes and onions if you wanted it, bread or arape and butter and jam. Orange juice. And a hot drink. |The service overall, the girls at reception were very friendly, would help me whenever I needed it, and would always give advice. Carolina especially was amazing, always smiling and laughing. Great girl. ||Overall, service was good, location was great. Only downside was the noise at times in the night. Would I stay here again?...

I stayed at this hotel with my mom. It’s really close to the airport and a few blocks from “El campin stadium” transmilenio station. Also a shopping mall is a few meters away. I stayed on a Wednesday so there wasn’t much music but I can see how it can be quite loud during the weekends as there are many clubs near by. The breakfast was good and the room was okay. I must say that this hotel feels more like a motel or bed and breakfast as it is extremely basic. No decorations or any living areas that are inviting so it’s good just for a night or two but not for a holiday. There isn’t any elevator and no men that can carry your luggage so my mom carried my suitcase up to the third floor and the receptionist and I carried the big luggage up to the room. The water pressure is great and the hotel has hot water. Also there is satellite tv with options in English and Spanish. I have no idea if the hotel staff speaks English or not as I speak spanish. Overall it was good as the area is safe and close to most places I wanted to go...

I stayed here for 2 nights while my last visit to Bogota. It is a small cozy hotel near Galerias. Here's my views.||What I liked||The hotel is at a very good location. The place is full of eateries. Various fast food joints like KFC and Mc Donalds are nearby. And there's Mr Camarones, a outlet which specifically serves ceviches. Do try this place. Then there's a 24 hour supermarket in the vicinity. The area is busy even during night time. There's a police post within 100 metres. The area seemed quite safe.||Even though the hotel is in busy area, rooms are quite and comfortable. Hot water supply is functional. Wifi is available and with a decent speed. Breakfast served is limited, but delicious. Last but not the least, the room tarriff doesnt burn a hole in your pocket and is a complete value for money.||What I didnt like||Nothing as such. I personally prefer buffet breakfast, which was not offered here.||||I liked the hotel and very helpful staff. I would return back to the hotel when I am at Bogota. I recommend this...
