them anyway. I like to be very respectful of
the history."
The 62 guestrooms (including 18
suites and one penthouse)-which in the
original structure are almost all unique,
including various ceiling configurations-
seamlessly blend the new and old buildings.
To achieve this, the team disposed of
discordant "contemporary insertions" like
out of place stainless steel-clad bathrooms.
To enhance existing wood and leather
furniture, extensive millwork, and tufted
headboards, the design team layered on
hand-embroidered pillows, crisp white walls,
hand-knotted beige drapery, wood floors,
metal lighting topped with white shades,
marble in bathrooms, and a diamond-pattern
throw rug "chosen to evoke the traditional
handcrafted motif," says Ginny Hightower,
project designer for Rottet Studio. "Simple
yet strategic upgrades transformed the
guestrooms into elegant and luxurious
environments befitting the brand."
Upon entering, guests feel as though they
are in a residential foyer, greeted by original
plaster walls, brick archways, and a grand
wooden staircase, enhanced by a custom
candlelit iron chandelier and a colorful
throw rug that's more an art piece. The once
tiny tucked-away reception area now opens
to reveal views of the existing courtyard,
creating an indoor-outdoor feel. (Bogotá-
especially this Zona G neighborhood-is
known for restaurants featuring cozy
courtyards with retractable glass for chilly

evenings.) The property "is in a very urban,
lovely, busy, historical area deep in the heart
of everything," explains Rottet. "Whatever
chaos you've been through, you're now
coming into a composed and serene space."
Maintaining the existing millwork and
incorporating pieces by local artisans made
sense in a city celebrated for its woodworking.
The client made specific introductions and
led the team to a nearby craft fair to shop for
artworks. The resulting pièce de résistance,
a carved wood reception desk designed by
Improdema-sculptural in its asymmetry-
creates interest, marrying history and
modernity and completing a welcoming living
room vibe. Behind it, a wall of locally carved
wood wraps up to the ceiling and extends
overhead. It's "beautiful and traditional, but
not predictable," Rottet explains.
Along with chalkboard menu café
La Bodega, tapas restaurant Castanyoles
(conceived by Rottet Studio and designed by
Saul Sasson) spills into the courtyard. Here,
Spanish tiles, tufted linen sofas, and a wall
of rainforest-inspired greenery, a nod to the
hotel's ivy-covered walls, sit beneath a glass
atrium. Says Rottet: "My work is very much
about bringing the outdoors in, and that was
very easy to do here because the windows
framed the views so well. The courtyard
is so much a part of what you see when
you're inside the rooms, especially in the
corridors." hd
