Where you stay in Bogotá shapes your trip, because the city is large and traffic is heavy. La Candelaria is the place for sightseeing on foot: the Hotel de la Ópera sits beside the Teatro Colón one block from Plaza de Bolívar, Hotel Casa Deco offers a quieter boutique stay near the Chorro de Quevedo, and Masaya Bogotá is a sociable hostel with dorms, private rooms and a free walking tour. Evenings in the centre are quieter, so expect to take taxis to restaurants in the north.
The north is better for dining, shopping and nightlife. In the Zona G, Four Seasons Casa Medina occupies a 1946 heritage building, while the Four Seasons Hotel Bogotá and the Sofitel Victoria Regia stand on Carrera 13 in the Zona T. B.O.G. Hotel in La Cabrera has a rooftop infinity pool, and The Click Clack Hotel near the Parque de la 93 is known for its rooftop bar. Business travellers and food lovers usually prefer the north, while first-time sightseers on a short trip often choose La Candelaria.
