Hilton Bogota on Track to Open on November 15
Hilton Hotels & Resorts has announced that Hilton Worldwide’s first managed full-service hotel in Bogota, Colombia is scheduled to debut November 15, 2011 and will welcome guests with a special introductory rate.
Located just 25 minutes from El Dorado International Airport, Hilton Bogota will bring a mix of contemporary design, thoughtful business and leisure concepts and discerning service standards to the city’s bustling financial district and an area known as the “new” downtown.
The 15-story Hilton Bogota will feature 245 well-appointed guestrooms including 13 spacious suites fashioned in neutral color palettes and featuring furnishings and artwork with contemporary flair; flat screen HD TVs; a frosted glass pane that separates a room’s rest and leisure areas from the work space with desk; and a walk-in closet next to a sliding-door bathroom. A contemporary executive floor will cater to the hotel’s business travelers from around the world.
A defining feature of Hilton Bogota is the elegant atrium lobby which showcases the array of offerings guests can experience from the moment they arrive: the hotel’s signature restaurant with direct street access and sophisticated dining concept; a Cafe that will indulge palates with the scents and tastes of regional delicacies, a stylish, four-level bar and lounge that looks upon a heated outdoor pool and hanging garden wall; the executive lounge exclusively for executive floor guests; and a quartet of small meeting rooms that follow the Hilton brand’s meetings standard.
A glass-enclosed poolside fitness center featuring a massage room as well as treatment area completes the hotel’s recreational amenities, while a ballroom measuring almost 5,000 square feet will round out the hotel’s nearly 10,000 square feet of flexible meeting space. Hilton Bogota’s underground parking will provide a coveted guest convenience in this city where parking is scarce.
In addition to welcoming global business travelers, Hilton Bogota is poised to appeal to the capital city’s growing number of leisure guests with its proximity to downtown, the city’s most popular dining neighborhood, and a bevy of museums and theaters. The hotel is also within walking distance to the “zona G” dining and entertainment quarter.
The opening of Hilton Bogota marks the anticipated return of the Hilton Hotels & Resorts brand to this thriving capital city, and serves as a reminder of Hilton Worldwide’s strategy to expand the portfolio throughout Latin America. It joins Hilton Cartagena as the second Hilton Hotels & Resorts property in Colombia.
