About Hostel Posada del Sol
Posada del SOL - Bogota, new travellers' meeting-point just opened in La Candelaria.
> Location <
Posada del SOL has moved to bigger and better location in the heart of Bogota, in early 2009. Generally, the security of La Candelaria area is complicated at night. However, the hostel is located just few blocks away from the presidential palace, the congress, and Plaza Bolivar. This guarantees better security in La Candelaria. You will see that there are police officers in every corner near the hostel.

It's very uncommon to sleep on innerspring mattresses during travel South America, but Posada del SOL offers top quality mattresses from El DoradoTM (http://www.colchoneseldorado.com). Queen size mattresses are ready for double rooms. Also we offer double thick blanket to keep you warm, as sometimes Bogota is very chilly at night.
