Hotel del Salto

Record summary

Hotel del Salto overlooks Tequendama Falls and is widely described as haunted after becoming abandoned and after longstanding reports of suicides at the falls. Stories include apparitions, voices, and unexplained photographs, while the building’s later restoration as a museum offers a documented architectural and environmental history. It is relevant for comparing a dangerous landscape, tragedy narratives, abandonment, and heritage tourism. The hotel’s dates and changing uses can be checked, but the number of deaths, exact ghost reports, and causal links between the site and apparitions are often repeated without primary documentation.
