Let the altitude do its work, and bring on the alcohol! Bogota's rumba (partying) is pretty serious. Things heat up at around midnight and go until 3:00am. If the spirit moves you, you can generally find after hours places or a house party to carry your shenanigans into the next morning. Of course you can't bring bottles into bars, but you can buy bottles there and then take them with you if there's anything left over. Know that only the finest establishments are able to make a wide range of drinks and cocktails. It's usually better to order something off of the menu, or keep it simple with a rum and coke or a whiskey on the rocks.
Hotel V is a 4 stories dance club. There is a large dance floor with today’s pop hits. Upstairs you will find an open terrace with another bar and many places to sit, drink and smoke. Every Wednesday, there's a special event, so you can join the facebook group for the latest updates.

It seems like the people that go to this bar are always ready for an unpretentious rock n' roll party. The live music usually features lots of covers so you can sing along, and some nights are open-mic (and open instrument).
