Casa Pestagua exceeded our expectations. The staff was so helpful and courteous. It was remarkable how well run the hotel is. I never saw a staff work so hard to make our stay exceptional.
The location is perfect! You can walk everywhere from the hotel. There are many great restaurants to choose from: 1621 at the Santa Clara was outstanding, Don Juan was wonderful, El Santisimo was good, and I would stay away from La Vitrola. The food was mediocre at best. Both my husband I did not feel good after eating there. We had a lunch at Mila Pasteleria which was delicious.
We explored all the museums, the fort and La Popa. We used several guides William Ortega williampajaroortega@hotmail.com, Angel Gomez Cantillo angelgomez2003@yahoo.com and met Johny Johnythe guide1@hotmail.com.
Never once did we feel unsafe. The Colombia people are very warm and friendly!
We will definitely be going back and of course staying at Casa Pestagua!
