NH Royal Metrotel - 3 Nights

The Resort and Its Setting

NH Royal Metrotel is a city-centre timeshare property carrying the NH Collection name, part of the NH hotel group with a long footprint across Europe and Latin America. Rather than a resort compound with pools and grounds, this is an urban hotel-style timeshare built around Bogota's business and cultural districts, with a three-night package format that suits short city stays over longer beach-style weeks. Owners book through RCI, which handles exchanges for members coming from other affiliated resorts.

Bogota: The Area and Things to Do

Bogota sits at roughly 2,640 metres above sea level, which gives the city notably cool, consistent temperatures year-round rather than the heat typical of South American capitals. NH Royal Metrotel's location puts owners within easy reach of the Botero Museum, about a kilometre away, and La Candelaria, Bogota's colonial old town of restored facades, galleries and cafes, around 2 km out. The Gold Museum, one of the most extensive collections of pre-Hispanic gold artefacts anywhere, sits roughly 3 km from the property, while Monserrate's mountaintop sanctuary and its city views are about 8 km away. Usaquén, known for its weekend artisan markets and restaurant scene, rounds out the list of nearby neighbourhoods, at around 6 km away. The city runs on an extensive public transport network, and most visitors get around comfortably with a prepaid transit card.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at NH Royal Metrotel and are ready to move it on, BidMyTimeshare.com works as a direct owner-to-owner marketplace: you set your own asking price, list the week, and interested buyers contact you through the platform. There's no commission taken on the sale — sellers pay a single, one-time listing fee to get the ad live, and that's the only cost to you.

Because this is a branded resort sold through RCI, resale here isn't quite the same as an independent, unaffiliated timeshare. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, both sides should confirm directly with RCI or the home resort administering the contract what the transfer process involves — specifically, the transfer or resale administration fee, whether the home resort or managing company holds a right of first refusal on the sale, and how long a transfer typically takes to process once a sale is agreed. These details vary by contract and aren't published figures we can quote here, so treat them as the first questions to put to the seller's home resort or RCI before any money changes hands.

Buyers should also ask exactly what carries over in a resale: whether RCI exchange privileges transfer automatically to the new owner's account, whether there are any annual membership or exchange fees attached beyond the week itself, and whether the week comes with any banked points or deposits already in place. None of this should be taken on the seller's word alone — get it confirmed in writing from the administering party before completing a purchase.

Practical Notes for Owners and Renters

Renters coming to NH Royal Metrotel through an exchange or direct booking should expect a city hotel experience — NH Collection service standards, a central Bogota location, and easy access to museums and historic neighbourhoods rather than resort-style leisure facilities. The three-night format suits a long weekend or a stopover before or after other Colombian travel. Given the altitude, it's worth building in a day to acclimatise before anything strenuous, and packing layers, since mornings and evenings are noticeably cooler than midday. Spanish is the everyday language, so a few basic phrases go a long way, and it's worth asking resort staff which routes and neighbourhoods are best for walking versus taking transport.
