The owners are onsite at all times to make sure that you are enjoying your stay. They are very funny and very welcoming to the gay and lesbian community. No problem to bring a new found friend back to visit you at the hotel. The owner speaks a little english, and his wife doesn't speak any at all--however they will arrange for an english speaking guide if you wish. The rooms are very clean, and a nice hot breakfast is served daily either in your room or outside the terrace. The hotel is located in a safe neighborhood within walking distance to many of Bogotá's gay clubs (which are very fun by the way!) 2 Hotel de la Opera | Calle 10 No. 5-72 | 1 336 2066| http://www.hotelopera.com.co/ This Colonial-era hotel is surprisingly bright and airy, with a gorgeous atrium breakfast room and stately rooms that are huge with high ceilings and nice details.

Gay and Gay Friendly Bogotá Clubs 1 Cavu Club | Carrera 15 No. 88-71 | no number | http://www.cavuclub.com/ (under construction) This is less a bass-blasting club and more of a cabaret club, and features top-notch drag performances to a mixed homo/hetero crowd.

Gay and Gay Friendly Bogotá Restaurants 1 Brokeback Mountain | Carrera 9A No. 60-25 | 1 542 5683 | no website More of a coffee bar than a restaurant, Brokeback Mountain obviously attracts a gay crowd and friends, with a laid-back atmosphere that can become more bar-like at night, when they have karaoke and other party-like activities. 2 Restaurante El Solar Patio-Cafe | Calle 68 No. 11-21 | 1 606 1847 | https://www.facebook.com/elsolarpatiocafe This gay-friendly restaurant has an adorable outdoor area with umbrellas and nice tables, as well as heating lamps for chilly nights.
