Whimsical mid-century townhouse
Ivy-draped courtyards, crackling fireplaces, and shared living rooms create the unhurried atmosphere of an intimate family home.
“At boutique hotel Casa Legado in Bogotá, Colombia, owner and love guru Helena Davila takes this mission very seriously.”

What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and AFAR.
The rooms are all different, as befits a house with some pre-hotel history that still feels more like a guest house than a traditional hotel.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Tree-lined Quinta Camacho offers quiet strolls to artisan bakeries and wine bars, with Chapinero and Zona G dining just beyond.
The rooms
Individually styled bedrooms honor family members. Natalia features a corner soaking tub, while Lucho opens to a private balcony hammock.
Yoga and massage
In-room Thai massages and private yoga sessions can be arranged on demand, with mats provided upon request.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Homemade coconut yogurt, artisanal breads, and Colombian coffee are served around a communal table or out on the garden terrace.
Inside, natural-fiber furniture from emerging Colombian designers sits alongside antiques from the home of the owner’s grandmother, below the watchful eye of family photographs on the wall.
How it began
Two adjoining 1950s residences were reimagined as a singular retreat, decorated with grandmotherly heirlooms and contemporary Colombian craft.
