Hotel Estelar de La Feria

Great location and friendly staff.

Overall, this hotel was quite adequate. It was very clean and the room was comfortable. There were two drawbacks. Number one was the location; it simply wasn't near anything--attractions,shopping,parks, etc. Number two was the very poor service in the restaurant. The staff could use some training in customer attention.

Even though this hotel was clean,modern and comfortable, Avoid the restaurant as the meals are too expensive and the portions way too small, for example I paid $ 3 us for a glass of tangerine juice,$17 US for two small plates of spaghettis with mediocre tomato sauce etc. etc. Do not use the Phone to make International Calls, they carged me $ 200.000 pesos for a 10 min call to the US, equivalent to $100 dollars US, internet its not free, if you use the wi-fi connection for more than 20 minutes it costs you $2.5 us Dollars an hour, or you can go with the $ 25000 pesos a day or $ 12.5 US dollars a day for internet. This hotel is overpriced when booked thru Orbitz, local rates differs for international travelers,not included in the fare are: hotel insurance ,taxes. I would never book this hotel again,there are better hotels for what I paid for and in better locations in Bogota. PS: The staff at the front counter used pressure tactics when I questioned the charges for the phone calls, as for example telling me that the shuttle van to the airport departs at precisely 11:00 am and that it wouldnt wait for me even though we were the only passengers. I felt Robbed and frustrated. I believe that in Colombia the moment they know you are from abroad everything all of a sudden costs twice or more , even though I speak spanish fluently .This is part of the local culture so please be advised.
