Four Seasons Hotel Casa Medina Bogota
Well-heeled foodies zone in on Bogotá’s Zona G and the Four Seasons Hotel Casa Medina. This district north of downtown hosts the capital’s finest restaurants (the “G” is for gastronomy), including the 62-room hotel’s Castanyoles A stylish Mediterranean bar & restaurant, with a greenhouse atrium perfect for languorous romantic evenings or a quick bite with a signature cocktail. The building itself is worth devouring; declared a cultural monument, its stoned columns, brick walls, beamed ceilings and contemporary furnishings make for a polished reprieve. Skin gets a healthy glow from green coffee wraps, coconut scrubs and other locally inspired spa treatments.
