The people

A house with hosts, not a front desk with beds.

Bohemia opened in Tequendama in late 2025 and won a Hostelworld HOSCAR within months. The idea is simple and written on the wall: come as you are, leave as a Bohemian.

Marco & Ceren

Bohemia’s owners introduced themselves to the hostel’s Instagram followers in February 2026 — a short, laughing video on the terrace among the banana leaves. We’d rather you meet them in person than read a biography we’d have to invent.

A note from the house

Bohemia is a design-led home: forest-green walls, terracotta warmth, moons on the dorm wall and pampas in the vases.

It’s social on purpose — salsa twice a week, a language café, group nights out — and restful on purpose, with curtains on every pod and private rooms you’ll actually want to spend time in.

And it’s a place to stay a while: coworking, a kitchen, free coffee and tea, and a café at the door.

Come as you are. Leave as a Bohemian.
