Virrey Central is a surprising hotel. It is only a short walk to the Museo del Oro and the Plaza. My room was basic but practical and very quiet. Everything is very clean and tidy and the staff are helpful and friendly. The breakfast is excellent.

Hotel's in a slightly rundown part of town, the rooms are basic and so is the breakfast. However, it's clean and the service is good, plus it's only a few minutes' walk from Bogota's major attractions, so overall it's not a bad choice - especially if price is an issue.
