THE STORY OF LA CASONA DEL PATIO BED BREAKFAST. Casona del PatioBed Breakfast was born out of a frustration. In 1997 the Anzola and Garcia family couldnt find a comfortable and informal place to receive their friends and family members in Bogota for mothers day celebration. In searching for a solution, the grandmother Cecilia Iriarte de Anzola. suggested to accommodate them in the house where her son and son in law had their office. Her granddaughter proposed then to adapt the house to a Bed Breakfast: that is how was born. It wasnt easy, from finding guests willing to share bathrooms in our beginning, to fourteen rooms completely equipped, and with bathroom nowadays. Because our house was built in 1940 and declared a city heritage landmark in 1994 for its English style, we have tried to revert it to its original condition, conserving, in especial, the central and characteristic yellow patio--which inspires the name of our Bed Breakfast.
