Trying to remeber this Bogota Hotel - Help!!!

Ok, I'll do my best to explain it because it has been many years since I visited, but I really liked this hotel when I was here last and I would like to take my wife there. Before you ask or suggest, I do not know the direction, street or exactly what its near...my memory sucks...and I paid in cash so no records on my CC bill:

It is a TALL hotel, high end and brand name like a Marriot or something. I remember it to be all dark brick/cement design with very modern rooms that do not have A/C and the bottom 1/4 of the windows swing out from top to bottom for air.

The lobby is huge and elegant, with a second floor containing bathroom and offices overlooking the first floor, I seem to remember a fountain, tasteful decorating and beautiful chairs/couches in this huge lobby area. You walk DOWN a ramp/steps are are to get into the lobby before entering the front doors and these steps/ramp come off of the corner area of a major intersection. When I was there they were also having a huge prom-like even for hundreds of teens completely decked out for some type of event.

The hotel is part of many buildings that make up a private courtyard area surrounded by many other businesses uncluding one which is an Italian restaurant with great ice cream, if I remember correctly, and a patio area in the courtyard. Walking to anything in the courtyard requires a long walk around the buildings and up many steps to this elevated area.

This is not far from the US embassy and some dome-like museum thing I visited.

Any help out there? Maybe a website or pic to prove it??? Thanks if you can!

Got it....thanks for the email 4-Points Sheraton is what it was.... Thanks again!

The "lovemedellin website" is a piece of crap made by some moron who has only been to Medellin once...you'd be better off reading the Lonely Planet advice from a guy who never even came here!
