Republica Hostel

Bogota

The staff are friendly and the breakfast is good. The pillows are not very comfortable and it is quite noisy until 11pm, but despite this it is good value for money and well located. If you want a cheap stay in Bogotá I would recommend.

Good value 

It is located in a very safe area, close to nearby bus stations, restaurants and bars.The facilities are very clean and the staff was very friendly, spacious shared rooms, 100% recommended.

It's wonderful!

Hostel working on medium-gas due to the global Covid-19 pandemic.No breakfast.Settled by a vigilante.Electronics in good condition.Individual and shared accommodations.This Hostel in Bogota is one of the three owned by the society, one in Mrs. Marta and another in Cartagena.

It's a lovely place to visit.

I stayed one night at Republica Hostel with a group of friends. The room was clean and spacious and it had a big window. Staff was friendly and helpful. The area has fantastic dinner spots all around.

El Macarena - a spacious room

Excellent cost benefit! Excellent location, we stayed in a shared room but with privacy since the beds are separated by wood and have curtains. Very good living area, very good breakfast, great service, very friendly staff.

Hostel Republic - Bogotá

The rooms are cool, in a private, very different schematic of the lounges that I didn't know. Breakfast is delicious. However, there was a schedule of parties and activities every day and we never saw it happen. The staff were a little hostile and I think it left everyone discouraged. They had four internet signals that didn't count for one, all of them bad, and we had a lot of trouble calling a taxi and accessing apps. Also, the street was all broken and in remodel and no one was notified before. There was no car passing by. We got there and we got into this unpleasant surprise. If it was a mother with a child, a person with disability or reduced mobility moments would have had a bad time with barbs and disability on the street.

Just OK

We got confirmation that they were going to pick us up at the airport and that they were going to wait for us, but when we got there there was no one and we had to take another transport, and the hostel wasn't bad, but we weren't told that the street was being renovated, which was a big drawback, besides the fact that they had four internet points that together weren't worth a bad one.

Staying okay

This wasn't the fanciest hostel I stayed at during my trip to Colombia, but it was my favorite. I chose it primarily for its location, and I wasn't disappointed. Although it's a fair distance from the city's main tourist zone, it's near public transportation, safe, and centrally located to places I wanted to see both north and south. There are literally dozens of restaurants within a five-minute walk, and a large shopping mall not much further away than that.

The hostel is clean, and the shared rooms offer "pod-style" curtained beds with the head away from the floor area. The two four-bed rooms I stayed in were a bit cramped, but that didn't bother me, because there's little reason to spend time in the room except when sleeping. And I slept well, even though most days I had at least one "roommate" check out early. The breakfasts (I chose yogurt with granola every morning) were a plus.

What made this hostel my favorite were the people. The hostel is set up in a way that it's very easy to meet people with seating areas both indoors and out. This is definitely not a party hostel, but it is social. During my stay, most people staying here were Europeans in their 20s, but I'm neither young nor European and felt that I fit in just fine. I definitely stay here again if I were returning to Bogotá.

Great place for meeting people

We had a double room with our own bathroom, rooms and bathrooms were clean, breakfast was great, staff was friendly and helpful, hostels and rooms were bright, but that didn't bother us.

Friendly hostel

Hi guys, what's up? I want to share some nice facts about Republica Hostel in Chapinero, Bogotá! 

After I checked in I met Dharma from Israël behind the bar. This guy is amazing with languages! Very social and funny! We played a few games and he knew alot about the area. If I was a hostel owner I would make him my GM for sure! I like flexible and easy going people who make you feel appreciated. 5 stars for this guy! 👏

The double bed was only 33K a night. That's less that 10€ a night. Wauw! The bed was very comfortable. Price is breakfast included and was more than enough. I had serial with 2 types of fruits and tea. Where others had pancakes.

I also did my laundry. That was 10K a KG and was a little bit expensive but was done very fast. Maybe fold my laundry would have been nice. Who knows maybe next time! The Wi-Fi was OK when it worked.

During my stay I met 4 wonderful Dutchies and other international travelers plus a german shepard! 🐶

I defenitly come back to this place when I'm in freezing Bogotá. I give 4 stars because there is always room for improvement! 😉
