Casa Platypus
Small and welcoming guesthouse in an ideal location, with a homely ambience and sociable shared areas.
With a prime position in the historic neighbourhood of La Candelaria, the former colonial mansion which now shelters the small and welcoming Casa Platypus has been sympathetically brought up to date. Rooms adjoin by a series of wooden balconies which wind around a light-filled courtyard, and are decorated in a simple, rustic style with white walls and a preponderance of dark, antiqued wood. There's also a lovely roof terrace, lounge, breakfast room and shared kitchen, ideal for the independently-minded traveller. The friendly staff are a great source of practical information on the area.
What our clients say
97% of our clients rated their experience with us as Excellent or Good.
"Small room and shower room but otherwise very good. There was noise from outside the room but that seems to be standard in Colombian hotels and everyone seemed to settle down early. Staff were excellent and very well organised. Honesty bar well stocked and reasonable prices. Close to shops and money exchange."
