This upscale bar is located in the northeast part of the city as where most of the upscale nightlife is. I had the chance to check it out this past February. There is no cover to enter since it's just a bar. I arrived there around 10pm and noticed that there were hardly any customers. However, there were about 5 lovely ladies sitting at the bar. At first, I wasn't sure if this was a traditional bar or a brothel disguised as one. It turned out that the ladies did work for the owner in which you would pay to rent a room and discuss a negotiated price with the lady. I was quoted $40 in US funds just for the room and for the sex the young lady desired $70. This was to include oral sex and then straightforward sex afterwards within 30 minutes. I tried to negotiate further down but I had no luck. And it really wasn't necessary since these ladies were also available for outgoing services.

I decided to just drink and have a woman accompany me. And the young lady was fine with that. The owner also didn't mind if I hung around just to drink. His prices were high (about $7 for domestic beer like Aguila and cocktails) but I was having a great time chatting with the lady. I noticed there were other social rooms and one large room was already equipped with a karaoke system and a dance floor. The lady and I decided to sing some songs and to my surprise they had an excellent selection of American songs! It seemed strange because I was on the hunt for sex but I got sidetracked into karaoke instead.
My Spanish is excellent and her English was very good so we both communicated in both languages simultaneously.

She told me that the venue actually gets filled by 11pm with more ladies and that mostly foreigners are the clients. Since I only stayed for a couple of hours, I can confirm that more women arrived. Oh! And very pretty I might add! All were young and some were dressed scantily clad. Cleavage never looked so inviting! I hated to leave but I wanted to roam the northern streets of Bogota some more. Mark this location down to meet beautiful women. Just make sure you negotiate with them for services at your hotel instead. I still have the business card and I can upload a photo of the business card if anyone would like it.

Pros: Pretty women, no pressure to buy drinks or services, very clean and upscale venue, safe area for tourists.

Cons: Drinks are on average $7, room rental along with service is expensive compared to other Bogota brothels.

"And it really wasn't necessary since these ladies were also available for outgoing services"

Just for curiosity's sake it would have nice if you had inquired about the price of offsite sessions.

Here's the business card. Luckily, I still had it in my possession.

And heres a recommended hotel that's only about $11 to $15 a night in Chapinero. Very clean, secure and widely known for extra curricular activities!

Went in about 1 1/2 weeks ago during a trip to Bogota, trip report to follow. The name of the bar has changed, but I forgot to write down the new name. I was there early on a Wednsday night. Spent about 2 hours drinking two beers with a charming young lady, who was the only one there when I went in. During this period, about 10 more girls came in, all very good looking. I stuck with the original (went by Nocole), and took her back to the hotel later.

I really liked the bar, it did not have the usual loud music, which completely blows my Spanish out of the water.

Bogota, IMHO, is not really a monger town. It is expensive (two beers each and the bar fine were about $60), and is much more tuned into local actvity.

On the other hand, I spend about two hours chatting with a rather charming Spanish teacher for the price of a decent dinner in the US, and have absolutely no problems with recommending the bar to anyone.

Sandy, agreed that Bogotá is not a great city for the sole purpose of mongering. It's a nice city with a lot history, cluture, shopping, etc. where you can also partake in the hobby. I'll be there in a week and look forward to your report.

This bar is now called Juan Pablos, or at least it is by the girls in there. Price wise the fine was about 50000 and the girls i got down to 200000, which is still pretty expensive. Saying that however the selection of girls in there was far better than any i have seen in the other strip bars round that area, and its a much less in your face experience that extasis etc. I found a couple of great girls there a few weeks ago, i still do one of them every so often now!

Hi. I just stopped by this place May 19 and had a good time. Most of the girls were very good looking. It was 200k for the night - I didn't really try to negotiate that much. I tried but she didn't budge. They have on-premise rooms which I believe run 40k or the bar fine is 60k. I decided to take the girl to one of the local hotels which ran 40k for the night. Anyways we left a 2am and stayed at the hotel until 6. I had a good time and will defintely return when I'm back in Bogota. btw, the drinks are expensive. Beers were 10k but mixed drinks or Red Bull was 20k.

I was in Bogota over the 4th of July weekend.Having read postings regarding La Mansion on the Clubhombre site, I asked the night manager at the hotel I was staying at ,what he thought about La Mansion. He agreed that it was a very nice establishment but added that it was far to overpriced for both the drinks and the women.He asked my permission to make another suggestion(very Polite Man, really).He told me of a Bar at Calle 93A of Carrera 18 called Juan Pablo.That area is very close to an upscaled walking mall called Park 93,with shops and restaurants and just around the corner from Houston's Tex-Mex restaurant. So I took a taxi on Sunday night about 11:00 P.M. to Juan Pablo'. There were about 30+ women with only about 8 to 10 men present.I do not know if this is normal for Sunday nights or if it is because it is also some Colombian holiday as well.I never found out which Colombian holiday it was.The women were a bit of a mix of just about everything from 4's and 5's to a few really knocked out ladies.If you were looking for it,it was there.Some would find the real problem with Juan Pablo's is that very few ladies speak English.My Spanish is poor but it seems to always get me what I want in these places.I was met with smiles and greetings from the doorman to the bartender as well as the manager/possible owner.The women will flat tell you that many of them have never seen a Norte Americano(Gringo)in the bar or talked to one.They treat you like a rock star and I loved it.No attitude. Now to the details.The bar Fine is 80,000 pesos(about $30.00).To your advantage, the women don't really know if they have a big fish on the line or if they are pricing themselves out of the market.I picked this natural large breasted dark haired lady with a great smile as my date. She began by asking $150.00 for all night.I politely said no thank you,when she asked how much I would like to pay. To get the ground rules clear, I told her I was looking for BBBj and just about everything else,(I did not ask about anal ,it's not my thing). She said no problema and smiled. This is where I screwed up because I countered with $100.00 todos noches(all night)and she said yes faster than I could finish my sentence.I could have done better but the little head spoke faster than the big head.It was indeed a great night and a lot of fun with this eager lady.
This is not the end of the story. I went back the next night to Juan Pablo's Bar and found that I was now welcomed with opened arms by everybody in the house.I asked if Vanessa(the woman I was with the night before)was here but she did not work on Monday nights.About that time this perky smaller light haired Colombian beauty jumped on the stool beside me and informed me that she was going to make my night something special.She then told me that she and Vanessa were not the best of friends and she proceeded to call her a gorda vaca(fat cow).She then told me that she was going to make Vanessa's performance the night before pale compared to what she was going to do to me. We quickly agreed $75.00 plus 80,000 pesos for the bar for all night.She raped me in the taxi all the way to the hotel.It was a great night and she did keep her word. Vanessa will never know just how good her competition really is.
In closing, if you can feel comfortable with limited language skills,you can have a great GFE and a lot of fun at Juan Pablo's Bar.
I don't know if the hotel wishes to advertise this or not but the Hotel Melia Santafe treated myself and the many ladies I brought there with a great deal of respect and kindness.

25 chicas when I went here. On this nite half of the customers were asians. Chicas quoted 300k but price negotiable. Onsite rm 85k 1-2hrs. Salida 85k. Open 7 days, no cover. Of the 25 chicas, only 1 I found attractive.

This club was quite nice. No cover and beer was only $13k pesos, which is pretty good for a Bogota club. Bartenders were very cool and the girls were not pushy at all. I stayed for a few hours but none of the chicks were really hot enough for me that night, although some did look pretty good. I saw two chicks who were at Casanova the night before. I saw one girl who I knew from LDV in Cartagena. There is no sign in front and this is located in a residential area. Very very dark in front of the club. If there are no cabs parked in front, I'm not really sure how you will find it. This club and Casanova were my favorites from this trip, my first.

8pm til 3am, or until the lights go on

Great bar, non-pushy, no gaggle of obnoxious waiters, fair and clear pricing, and friendly staff.

Juan Pablo is the elderly gentleman quietly managing the premises, the hot MILF is his trophy and manager, his kids are behind the bar, and a nice abuelita was our waitress. Nice family operation.

The place was slower due to holidays, but there were all good looking girls, and two that had my name written all over them.Unfortunately, there were busy and went home with the two fellas that were supplying their drinks. I settled against my usual tastes on a cute Calena, that was a fantastic fuck. DFK, enthusiasm, and lots of fun.

Prices are $300 but you can negotiate.No cover and no bar fine when the lights go on, about 3am.

Will return here for sure.

Could not find either address, the old one is now a travel agency. Will look again tomorrow.

Any luck Sandy?

Is Juan Pablos still open?

I looked at both the new and old address, and neither was a bar. Travel agency and something else (forgot what now). I think it is gone. Shame, it was a nice place.

I was there in May it was open.

Juan Pablo's is mentioned in 2009/02 Jaggerbowski - Ultravixens Versus Chicas of the Sun
