Casa Medina Bogota
Colonial-era grandeur with genuine character. Stone columns, dark-wood beams and wrought-iron details throughout. Intimate and residential in scale — feels more like a particularly well-run historic manor than a large hotel. Quiet, almost contemplative atmosphere compared to the livelier Four Seasons Bogota in nearby Zona T.
Request a room with a wood-burning fireplace — Bogotá's elevation means evenings are cool enough to use it most of the year
Why It Matters
One of the few luxury hotels in Latin America housed in a government-designated cultural monument. The building predates Four Seasons' involvement by decades and its architectural integrity — the original stained glass, hand-carved doors, spiral staircase — has been preserved rather than polished away. The Penthouse Suite on the fifth floor is a perennial favourite with heads of state and visiting musicians.
Casa Medina is one of Bogotá's most singular hotels — a 1946 building designed by Colombian artist-architect Santiago Medina Mejia, originally built as a private eight-apartment residence inspired by French classical architecture. Colombia's Ministry of Culture has declared it a monument of cultural interest. The result is 62 rooms where no two are alike: beamed ceilings, hand-carved wooden furnishings, stained-glass stairwells and wood-burning fireplaces sit alongside Four Seasons service in the heart of Zona G, Bogotá's densest concentration of serious restaurants.
Where You'll Stay
11 room types available
Colonial One-Bedroom Suite
The largest of the one-bedroom suites at 60 sqm and the one that most embodies Casa Medina's historic character. It has a spa-style whirlpool bath and a wood-burning fireplace — the combination that defines a romantic Bogotá night in.
One king bed · 60 sqm
Deluxe Room
A step up in space from the Superior, at 34 sqm. Still all the original architectural character — carved woodwork, beamed ceilings — but with more room to breathe. Accommodates two adults.
One queen bed · 34 sqm
Executive Suite
55 sqm suite with separate living area fitted with hand-carved wooden furnishings and a king-size bed with courtyard views. Separate sleeping and living spaces make it genuinely practical for longer stays or business travel.
One king bed · 55 sqmExecutive Suite With Fireplace
The same 55 sqm layout as the Executive Suite but with the addition of a wood-burning fireplace. Everything the Executive Suite offers, plus a fire to gather around on cool Bogotá evenings.
One king bed · 55 sqmGrand Premier Room
The largest standard guest room at 44 sqm. King bed, rollaway or crib available. Accommodates two adults or two adults and one child. The extra space makes it feel genuinely residential.
One king bed · 44 sqmGrand Premier Room With Fireplace
Same footprint as the Grand Premier at 44 sqm, but this one has a wood-burning fireplace and an oversized living area with a tufted leather sofa and trunk-style furniture. At Bogotá's altitude, that fireplace gets used. One of the best-value rooms in the hotel for the atmosphere it delivers.
One king bed · 44 sqmOne-Bedroom Suite With Balcony
At 60 sqm, this suite shows off some of the building's finest architectural details. The private balcony overlooks the courtyard. Period-style leather furniture, a separate living area with dining and work space, and modern luxuries — it's genuinely unlike a standard hotel suite.
One king bed · 60 sqmOne-Bedroom Suite With Fireplace
60 sqm with a wood-burning fireplace and full separation between sleeping and living areas. A proper suite for settling in — good for both couples seeking comfort and business travellers needing space to work and unwind.
One king bed · 60 sqmPenthouse Suite
The crown of the building at 108 sqm on the fifth floor. Leather club chairs by the fireplace, a spacious living room, a full dining room and two bathrooms. This is the suite that heads of state, royalty and visiting musicians book. The kind of space where you genuinely feel like you live in the building rather than a hotel guest.
One king bed · 108 sqmPremier Room
40 sqm of quietly elegant space with your choice of bed configuration. The flexibility in bed types makes this a solid pick for couples and friends travelling together. Original architectural details throughout.
One king, one queen or two twin beds · 40 sqmSuperior Room
The entry-level room at Casa Medina and the most compact option in the house. At 24 sqm it's snug, but the colonial detailing — beamed ceilings, hand-carved furnishings — means it doesn't feel generic. Good for solo travellers or those who plan to spend most of their time out in Zona G.
