⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hotel Musica in Bogotá absolutely exceeded every expectation. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere felt vibrant, welcoming, and full of character—perfectly capturing the historical spirit of the city. The design is stunning, with artistic touches throughout that make the entire experience feel unique and memorable without ever being overdone.
The rooms were spotless, beautifully decorated, and incredibly comfortable. Every detail felt thoughtfully curated, from the quality of the linens to the lighting and sound ambiance. I especially appreciated how relaxing and quiet the space was at night, making it easy to rest after a full day exploring Bogotá.
The staff truly made this stay exceptional. Everyone was warm, attentive, and genuinely eager to help—whether it was recommending local spots, arranging transportation, or simply greeting guests with a smile. Their hospitality felt authentic and personal.
The location is another huge plus—conveniently situated near great restaurants, cultural spots, and lively neighborhoods, making it easy to explore the city.
If you’re looking for a hotel that combines style, comfort, and outstanding service with a creative twist, Hotel Musica is an absolute gem. I would return in a heartbeat and recommend it to anyone visiting Bogotá.

Muisca is a charming little hotel, a nicely renovated old building in the area of Bogotá you’ll most want to visit. The staff are friendly and helpful. It may not be for everybody, however. The rooms are somewhat rustic and not huge, plus there are winding stairs to some of them that might be a challenge for anyone with mobility issues. It’s a relatively short walk to the sights of La Candelaria, but the hotel is situated at the top of a steep hill, which some might find difficult. Generally, though, a great base for seeing the best of Bogotá.

Great location for sightseeing in la candelaria neighborhood. Close to sights and restaurants, though steep hill to get back to hotel. It is very cheap to uber or taxi back up the hill, of tired after a day of walking. Free WiFi that worked well. They have a sauna, as well. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend it.

Muisca has old world charm... There are 3 floors with a very narrow spiral staircase. There are no accommodations for those who are wheelchair bound. It's rooms are quite small, the amenities are sparse, and the walls are paper-thin. If it's comfort that you seek, this is not the hotel for you. Think more of a vintage hostel. When you leave for the day, to possibly explore your surroundings, you must turn in your room key at the front desk and be let back in, only after you've rang the doorbell. I made a 6 day, 5 night reservation, and after 2 nights--I cancelled the remainder of my reservation forsaking charm for comfort.
If you are a traveler that requires very little, when considering a hotel then Hotel Muisca is for you

I was really excited about my stay here but I was so disappointed!
I arrived in Bogota from the US. I was greeted by an older gentleman who acted like I was an inconvenience to him from the very beginning. I speak little Spanish so I just assumed that maybe this was a language barrier, but it was not.
I had a friend stop by the hotel with me in the evening to enjoy a beer on the hotel’s roof top (as the gentleman told me I could do). He then proceeds to tell me that I’m not allowed to bring in outside alcohol to the roof deck, only my room. He said that the hotel has a bar and this is a rule. Okay…. I was not aware of there being a bar in the hotel nor that this was a rule. I assumed it was just a cultural difference and said “okay, no problem, we’ll just sit my room.” Then he insisted that my friend could not enter my room because he was not my husband. What?! Sir, this is 2024. Also, is this not a hotel that I paid for? He literally made us leave the deck. He made me feel so uncomfortable that I just went to bed very early. I would have happily spent money at the hotel at the bar if it was allowed. At this point it was nighttime and I was too nervous to go out by myself alone as it is not very safe. So I felt totally trapped.
The shower was filthy. Hair was on the walls and on the drain. The bed was horrible!!! I should have just slept on the floor.
The breakfast was nice. The hotel was pretty. But I would not stay here again. This gentleman absolutely ruined my stay.

This is a very colonial era hotel, beautiful decor and ambience. The location is not bad, night time is a bit scary to go out. The room we had was nice, it was on the first floor. We really enjoyed the garden terrace and the rooftop terrace with a nice view. Breakfast was included and made fresh for you.
It would have been nice if all the staff were bilingual in speaking English. Despite the language barrier all the staff were very accommodating, pleasant and friendly. We want to give a shout out to Carlos, Sharon, Claudia and the wonderful cook Angela for a wonderful stay.
The taxi driver requested by the hotel did scam us on our way back to the airport, he charged us way to much compared to what the hotel told us.

Bad hotel.......don't stay here!

I would strongly encourage not staying at this establishment. I have traveled to many countries and all across the US and have never been treated so badly as at this hotel. The decor is charming but the rooms are not as nice as they seem in the photos. But, most importantly, the man in charge made an accusation on the morning after our first night that we had stained the sheets in one of our rooms blue.....the whole sheet! When we pointed out that it is impossible to stain an entire sheet blue, he was rude but backed off. We had rented two rooms. The guests in the second room left later that morning, but again he brought out the sheets to try and get them to pay for the staining. The owner then told our friend that he really didn't like people like us staying at his hotel, which he certainly doesn't need to worry about. It's unfortunate because the hotel it self is not something I would be terribly negative about. It is quirky, but charming, and clean and convenient. Just badly staffed, which obviously comes from the top.

The hotel cleanliness and amenities were what you would expect for this price. However, the woman with glasses working the front desk is one of the most unpleasant humans I have encountered. She would pretend to not understand what you were saying (both English or Spanish) so as to not have to take the time to answer your question. I don’t think she smiled once throughout our stay. Decent location and hotel for a good price, but will not be returning due to the ornery staff.

I booked Hotel Muisca for four nights but changed hotels after two nights. Hotel Muisca is located in La Candelaria but I found the location to be a bit isolated and sketchy and too far from Plaza Bolívar and restaurants. It is also at the top of an extremely steep hill, making walking to and from the hotel onerous. The staff was perfectly friendly. The heater in my room was broken the first night and a portable heater was brought in for the second night. It gets chilly at night in Bogota. Just as a matter of personal preference, the hotel was not for me.

Five star experience! Beautiful grounds, great

Wonderful! Very attentive to our needs. We stayed here for 1 week with another family. The staff took excellent care of us, and helped us in many ways. They helped make local calls, found us transportation, they would bring us hot waterbottles warmed up each night to sleep with, and they had several breakfast choices. Be sure to check out the 'social room' upstairs. They delievered us drinks up there while we all relaxed and listened to music. Be aware that Bogota is cool. The rooms have 'heat' but you will want warm pajamas and a jacket. Breakfast is served on the patio so it can be chilly. We did need to take medication for high Elevation while in Bogota. It is 8000 feet up. My 15 yr old daughter got naseau,headache, and was greatly helped by the medicine. The street this hotel is on is one of the best of La Candelaria but everything was under construction (June 2018) so we couldnt get great pictures of the colonial buildings. The area looks questionable but we were fine in the hotel. This hotel has info on all the indiginous peoples of Colombia (La Musica) and would be an anthropologists dream with the informative signs Excellent attention to detail and decorating.

Hotel is no more than a classy hostel.

We arrived around 2 pm but were unable to check out in early. As we hadn't eaten we asked for a restaurant close by. Carlos told it was not safe to walk outside the hotel, so called us a car that we were lpaying for by the hour. Carlos said to keep him on hire as the taxis weren't safe. When we returned we checked into our room. It was just like the pictures, but very dark and extremely damp. We were afraid to go back out so stayed in our room and had some cheese and crackers we picked up while out for lunch. Our room had 2 windows that looked out on a verandah overlooking a court, which let in a lot of dampness but no light. I was unable to breath around 5am due to the altitude and humidity coming from the court. My husband tried to take a shower but there was absolutely NO hot water, after several attempts, there still wasn't any at 11 when we checked out. We asked for a refund as the room was prepaid. He said we would have to contact Expedia first. As I was still very short of breath, we sent them an email and asked Carlos for a receipt showing that we had checked out. He said he could not give us one. The long and the short of it, when we tried to get our refund for 2 of the 4 days, they said they had no record of us checking out. We went to another hotel where I had no problem breathing.

Lovely hotel in Bogota

Cannot say enough great things about this hotel. I arrived after midnight, and the lovely woman who attends the front desk at night made me lasagna and passion-fruit juice. The rooms are quaint. The value, like all things in Colombia, is extraordinary. This hotel would be $250/night in the US. The only thing to consider, and this is not a criticism or anything that can't be got-round with a taxi, is this: The hotel sits nearly at the top of a very steep incline. Colombians walk everywhere - which explains their great shapes - and Americans do not. If you're up for a hike on the way back to your room every day, this hotel cannot be beat.

Awful staff, horrible sleep.

Hotel Muisca is a lovely space and that is the only positive thing I can honestly say about it. The manners displayed by the staff were atrocious. The rooms lacked any auditory privacy whatsoever - at night we could hear sounds from downstairs as clearly as if the door was wide open. The breakfast included rotten fruit. The bed and pillows were literally as stiff as boards...and I sometimes sleep on a board due to back issues. It's too bad because it really is a great space but the service combined with the horrendous sleep conditions left quite a bit to be desired.

Very Nice Cozy Hotel With Very Helpful Staff

This is a great and well maintained hotel in the middle of La Candelaria, only a few blocks from good restaurants and museums. The room was very clean and pleasant, and the staff was great. We stayed six nights and will return later in our trip.

Nice hotel up a hill.

A nice, well located hotel with friendly staff. An unusual layout for the rooms but that adds character. The only caveat is the hill if you are walking up from the city and not taking a taxi. If you are not used to 8000 ft elevation the climb will probably leave you puffing and panting. Good exercise :)

Great stay and the staff is second to none.

I read the reviews before booking this hotel and the only drawback I saw was the hill but for me it was no problem. Some say it might be unsafe but I never felt that way but the again I never walked around late at night. The room felt very secure and my only regret is I didn't get to stay longer. Great Price!!!

Love the little gem!

I love this hotel for its immediate Colombia ambiance as soon as you walk in the door. I can't say enough about the staff. Angie was very attentive, called me a safe cab, helped when I was sick, and more. Breakfast is basic but good and fresh. My room #12 was a little noisy (they run a blender or something every nite at 11pm ish) and because it faces the street but any traveler knows to have earplugs so it didn't bother me. Its certainly quieter than the main area of Candelaria because you are set just up the hill away from the crowded streets.
The walk up the hill is not horrible, but a slow gradual climb, but if you are not a walker you wont like it.
Food options, shopping and culture are right out the door and plentiful.

Good choice - just be aware

I enjoyed my stay - but some cautions should be made.The staff was incredibly helpful. The hotel is fairly rated as 3 stars. Located at the top of a very steep hill - one needs to be quite in shape and also careful with the neighborhood. Wifi does not work throughout the hotel and hot water is not consistently on.

Ideosyncratic hotel away from the noise.

We spent two nights in the unique small hotel uphill from the center of government. It has a unique decor, large beams, stone floors, spiral stairs, two fountains, brick and stucco walls. The rooms were charming and very comfortable. We had wooden shutters to keep out the light. A 10-minute walk downhill brought us to the main street of the old town. Best was Carlos, the gentleman at the desk, who speaks English and Dutch. He could arrange day trips and taxi rides. Be warned that, in wet weather, the small yellow taxis may not be able to get up the hill.

Lovely Hotel in La Candelaria

Hotel Muisca was a great hotel to stay in. The staff were lovely. The room we had looked out onto the street which made it a little noisy at night. But overall this place was a great start to our holiday.

Lovingly Restored

I loved the element of surprise once I entered the lobby. The front of the hotel facing the street belies what is behind the door. Being a colonial building, the central courtyard and connected structures are quite lovely. The hotel was lovingly restored 3 years ago, and the owner used traditional materials and finishes in keeping with the original structure but with modern convenience in the bathrooms. My room was small, but surprisingly comfortable, especially the bed. To my surprise, it didn't have a closet, but it did have several hooks that ended up working quite well to hang up my things. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The main downside was the street construction on the adjoining block because it limited access, but once the construction if completed it should make access more conveninet. Note that the hotel is towards the top of a very steep street. As I adjusted to the high altitidue of Bogota, this did present a bit of a challenge and I had to stop a few times to catch my breath. In any event, a lovely hotel in an interesting, historic part of the city.

Friendly staff

Best thing about the hotel is the friendly staff who went out of their way to make sure we were safe and comfortable. Overall, rooms and hotel rather dark and area not the best. Felt we couldn't venture out too much at night. Breakfast more or less the same every day. Lovely roof terrace with fabulous views.

Beautiful Hotel but not best location

Hotel Muisca is beautiful, and although it is technically in the historical center of town, it is on the last street at the very border of it. The area is beautiful by day but particularly dangerous by night (anytime after 8pm, hotel staff advise you not to walk the streets at all, even just a few blocks). If you are comfortable taking taxis to the busier areas every evening, it's not a problem.

Average hotel, a few problems

I am a very experienced traveler, having been in more than 140 countries as a photojournalist, and therefore am quite used to many different kinds of accomodations. This hotel is in a good location relative to the tourist sites of Bogota and the staff were very friendly. My only critique was that I was charged for a breakfast that I did not have and the woman at the hotel refused to correct this mistake. Also, the internet sometimes did not work, but this was not through any fault of the hotel.

Unsafe part of the city

My taxi driver did not want to drive me to this region, and everyone I checked with said that this part of the city is unsafe and dangerous.

Hotel Muisca was sweet as musica!

Staff members Edna and the gentlemen who works in the evenings were very attentive and friendly. The location of the hotel was within walking distance from many Bogota attractions. I would recommend the hotel to anyone and actually plan on returning some day.
