Four Seasons Bogotá

The lobby is adorned with plush armchairs, marble tables and sculptures that offer an artsy feel, and there's a delicious subterranean spa with Colombian green coffee wraps and mango and papaya exfoliations on the menu. La Bibliotica bar is the best place to grab a drink, and just next door, the jazzy Nemo Restaurant has a fantastic open kitchen where you can watch everything from boneless ribeye to hunks of grouper cooked over charcoal. Breakfast is also served in one of the restaurant, buffet or a la carte.

Sleek and sophisticated, the rooms are light-filled (the huge windows do the trick) and spacious with creamy handwoven rugs and dark-wood hardware. The suites come with an added living area, dotted with inspiring coffee table books and large, bright artworks. The marble-clad bathrooms have powerful rain showers, mirrors and luxury Loto del Sur products. The Penthouse Suite acts like an entire apartment with gorgeous emerald-green textiles, a private terrace and ample, separate living areas complete with a wood-burning fireplace.

You'll definitely want to spend time exploring Zona Rosa, a gastronomic and nightlife hotspot in Bogota. A taxi ride away is the iconic La Candelaria neighbourhood and its fascinating museums (the Gold and Botero Museums are a both highlights) and plazas, as well as Monserrate, where you can ride the funicular for amazing views of the city. The hotel will also happily arrange a cocktail-making or cooking class, tours of the Paloquemao Market or journeys further afield to see the amazing Zipaquira Salt Cathedral.
