Selina Chapinero Bogotá Reviews

Selina Los Heroes Bogota is a branch of a big and famous hostel chain, with several hostels all around Colombia and many other countries in Central and South America. It always maintains a similar design with high-quality infrastructure, large common areas, comfy mattresses, a common kitchen, and a bar.

The Location

Selina Bogota is located in the city center, twenty minutes away by taxi to the bus station and about twenty-five minutes from the airport. Public transportation can be unreliable and complicated as there is no metro, so one will probably end up taking a taxi. There is a big supermarket near the hostel and many attractions to visit as well. The nightlife area is far away and a twenty-minute taxi ride is needed.

Rooms and Bathrooms

It offers privates and dorms. Dorm vary from six to twelve beds, and they have bunks on three levels. The ceiling is high though, and the first bed is on the floor. However it can be quite uncomfortable to sleep either on the floor or on the top bunk. Mattresses are comfy and new and there are lockers but one needs to have his own padlock. Bathrooms are shared with everybody else in the hostel, but there are many with several toilets and showers, so there is never a waiting time. Water is hot and soap is available but not shampoo. All areas are maintained and clean. A note is that it gets cold in Bogotá and the rooms have no heating system, so even though there is a blanket available, you might be cold at nighttime.

Common Spaces

There is the reception at the entrance with sofas and tables, and a bar. Inside the hostel there are other two areas where you can socialize -- one inside that closes at 11 p.m. and one outside where people can hang out after 11. A pool table is available and a common kitchen is free to use for guests, even though the equipment is scarce and there are many useful cooking items missing.

The vibe highly depends on how many people stay in the hostel. There are not many activities organized, so it varies on what kind of people are there. It is not a party hostel and after 11 p.m. everybody needs to go on the outside area, and it can be annoying as it is often cold and it might rain. There is a security guard at the entrance that at night doesn’t let in people that are not from other hostels, so it is great for security but bad if you want to have friends over.

Summary

All in all, it is a fairly nice place that follows the great Selina features. If you feel the cold it might not be a good choice, as it gets very cold in the rooms at night. Also, it is ok to socialize but definitely not a party spot.
