What Is Tokyo Plus?

Not every Fraile Homes property is built around the intimacy of a shared apartment. Tokyo Plus is the other end of the portfolio: a full multi-story building in Bogotá's Chicó Norte district, designed around Japanese minimalism, and run as a building-wide coliving and aparthotel experience rather than a single curated home.

Where Virrey Coliving (Fraile Homes' other Bogotá property) is seven rooms in one apartment, Tokyo Plus is a proper building — full 24/7 gym, panoramic rooftop terrace, dedicated coworking spaces, private parking, and studio-style units designed for both business travelers and longer-term remote workers. The building's own description leans into its aesthetic identity directly: interior spaces "reflecting the serenity and minimalism of Japan," in one of Bogotá's most upscale residential districts.

This review covers the building, the studios, the neighborhood, and the four studio configurations currently listed on CoDNX.

Tokyo Plus is best for: ✓ Digital nomads who want building-wide amenities (gym, coworking, rooftop) rather than a single shared apartment ✓ Business travelers who want a private, hotel-style studio with hands-off, contactless check-in ✓ Guests who value a fitness routine — the 24/7 gym is a genuine differentiator among Bogotá colivings ✓ Anyone drawn to a minimalist, design-forward aesthetic distinct from typical Bogotá coliving decor ✓ Groups or teams — with building capacity well beyond a boutique coliving's typical room count

Why Tokyo Plus Is Different

Most Bogotá colivings pick one identity and commit to it: boutique intimacy, budget hostel energy, or corporate aparthotel polish. Tokyo Plus sits deliberately at the intersection of the last two — a building with hotel-grade infrastructure (24-hour security, front desk assistance, private parking) but studios genuinely equipped for remote work and longer stays, wrapped in a design language borrowed from Japanese minimalism rather than the generic "modern furnished apartment" look common across the category.

The building's own framing captures this directly: "Live Bogotá like a local. Your host is at your disposal to recommend the best places to visit, eat, and explore." That's a coliving promise wrapped inside an aparthotel's operational polish — daily cleaning, 24/7 assistance, and 24-hour security sitting alongside co-working spaces and a panoramic terrace clearly meant for lingering, not just photos.

The Location: Chicó Norte, Bogotá

Chicó Norte is one of Bogotá's most sought-after residential and commercial districts — known for its cultural life, high-end dining, and luxury shopping, and immediately adjacent to some of the city's most iconic parks and attractions. Multiple independent listings for the building cite Parque El Virrey as roughly 1.5 km away, placing Tokyo Plus within easy reach of the same premium north-Bogotá corridor that includes Parque 93, Zona Rosa, and Zona T.

This is a genuinely central, well-connected address in one of Bogotá's most desirable districts — walkable to a meaningful slice of the city's best dining and shopping, with the added convenience of standard hotel-district infrastructure (nearby transit, parking, security) that a converted residential apartment coliving typically can't match.

The Space: A Full Building, Not a Single Apartment

Tokyo Plus's amenity set operates at the building level, shared across all studios rather than confined to any single unit:

• 24/7 gym access

• Panoramic rooftop terrace

• Dedicated co-working spaces

  and meeting rooms

• 24-hour security

  and front-desk assistance

• Private parking

  (subject to availability, priced by duration)

• High-speed Wi-Fi

  throughout

• Daily cleaning service

• Contactless smart lock entry

  on select units — no coordination needed for check-in

Per CoDNX listing descriptions, individual studio types include:

• Terrace Studio

  — a modern minimalist studio with a private terrace, dedicated desk, high-speed Wi-Fi, 45-inch Smart TV, complete kitchen with induction stove, coffee maker, and mini fridge, plus in-unit washer/dryer and blackout blinds.

• Interior View Studio

  — a quiet, interior-facing studio designed for focused, uninterrupted work, with a full work zone, complete kitchen, in-unit laundry, and contactless smart lock entry.

• Exterior View Studio

  — a light-filled studio with city views (full description truncated in source listing).

Check-in runs from 2:00–3:00 PM (sources vary slightly) with check-out at 12:00 PM (noon) across listings.

[TO CONFIRM] Third-party OTA listings (Booking.com, Hoteles.com, Trivago) variously describe the building as having 13 or 31 rooms — worth confirming the actual current unit count directly with Fraile Homes, since this affects how the property should be positioned (boutique aparthotel vs. larger-scale building).

The Four Studios on CoDNX

Four Terrace Studio configurations are currently listed on CoDNX, though guest capacity varies meaningfully between them — worth checking carefully before booking:

[TO CONFIRM] Listing 2's 60-guest capacity stands out sharply against the other three (2 guests each) despite otherwise identical pricing, discounts, and descriptions. This is very likely a data entry artifact — possibly representing a whole-building buyout option rather than a single studio — rather than a real single-unit capacity of 60. Worth flagging to Fraile Homes directly so it can be corrected or clarified before guests attempt to book it expecting a 60-person unit.

All four listings currently offer a modest 5% Base Discount only — a noticeably thinner discount structure than Fraile Homes' Virrey Coliving listings, which range up to 40–41% off across multiple discount types. This may reflect Tokyo Plus's positioning as a more standardized, hotel-style rate rather than the negotiated long-stay pricing Fraile Homes offers at Virrey.

Cancellation policy across all four listings is Long-term (28+ days): full refund if cancelled 30+ days before check-in, 50% refund if cancelled 14–30 days before, no refund within 14 days — with one listing noting cancellation up to 30 days before the reservation start for a full refund.

What People Say

Tokyo Plus has an established review history on major OTAs distinct from the newer CoDNX listings. Guest ratings on one major platform average around 6.7 out of 10 across a small sample of reviews, with standout marks for staff (10/10), cleanliness (10/10), comfort (10/10), and value for money (10/10), alongside a more modest facilities score (8.8/10). A broader 68-review sample on another platform rates the property "Good" overall. Location is highlighted consistently across listings, with one review platform specifically flagging Tokyo Plus's excellent location rating.

[TO CONFIRM] These review scores come from third-party OTAs (Booking.com and others) rather than CoDNX itself, where all four current listings show no reviews yet. Pulling a few specific, attributed guest quotes directly from Booking.com (with permission) would strengthen this section considerably for a CoDNX-native review.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Genuine building-wide amenities — 24/7 gym, rooftop terrace, and dedicated coworking spaces — that a single-apartment coliving typically can't offer.

• Distinctive Japanese-minimalist design identity, differentiated from the generic "modern furnished apartment" look common in the category.

• Hotel-grade infrastructure: 24-hour security, front-desk assistance, private parking, and contactless entry on select units.

• Established review history on major OTAs, with strong marks for cleanliness, comfort, and value.

• Central Chicó Norte location, close to Parque El Virrey and the broader north-Bogotá premium corridor.

• In-unit laundry and full kitchens in Terrace Studios — genuinely self-sufficient units for longer stays.

Cons

• [TO CONFIRM]

  Room count is inconsistent across sources (13 vs. 31 rooms) — worth a direct confirmation before publishing.

• [TO CONFIRM]

  One CoDNX listing shows an apparent data error (60-guest capacity) that needs correcting before guests attempt to book it.

• Discount depth on CoDNX (5% only, currently) is thinner than Fraile Homes' other Bogotá property, Virrey Coliving — worth asking whether more discount tiers will be added.

• No reviews yet on the CoDNX listings themselves, despite an established review history elsewhere — a gap for guests browsing CoDNX specifically.

• As a larger, more hotel-like building, it likely offers less of the tight-knit, everyone-knows-everyone community feel of a small boutique coliving like Virrey.

How Tokyo Plus Compares

Tokyo Plus and Virrey Coliving represent two different bets within the same Fraile Homes portfolio: Virrey trades scale for intimacy and a premium park-side address; Tokyo Plus trades intimacy for genuine building-wide infrastructure and a distinctive design identity, in an equally strong but different part of Bogotá's north side.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where exactly is Tokyo Plus located? Carrera 45 #95-86 (also referenced as #95-92), in Chicó Norte, Bogotá — roughly 1.5 km from Parque El Virrey and about 5 km from El Dorado International Airport.

Is Tokyo Plus the same property as Virrey Coliving? No — both are operated by Fraile Homes, but they're distinct properties. Virrey Coliving is a seven-bedroom shared apartment near Parque El Virrey; Tokyo Plus is a larger, multi-story building in Chicó Norte with building-wide amenities.

What amenities are included? 24/7 gym access, a panoramic rooftop terrace, dedicated coworking spaces, 24-hour security, high-speed Wi-Fi, daily cleaning, and private parking (subject to availability). Individual studios include full kitchens, in-unit laundry, and Smart TVs.

How many rooms does the building have? Sources vary — third-party listings cite either 13 or 31 rooms. Worth confirming directly with Fraile Homes before treating either figure as final.

What's the cancellation policy? Long-term (28+ days) across all four current CoDNX listings: full refund if cancelled 30+ days before check-in, 50% refund if cancelled 14–30 days before, no refund within 14 days.

Are there guest reviews? Not yet on CoDNX specifically, but the property has an established review history on other platforms (Booking.com and others), with particularly strong marks for cleanliness, comfort, and value.

How do I book? Directly through any of the four CoDNX listings linked throughout this review, or via WhatsApp at +57 302 223 1908, or through tokyoplusbogota.com.

Final Verdict: Is Tokyo Plus Worth It?

For a specific kind of guest, yes — but it's a different pitch than Fraile Homes' Virrey Coliving, and worth understanding as such.

Tokyo Plus makes sense for someone who wants hotel-grade building infrastructure — a real gym, real security, a real front desk — combined with genuinely usable studio apartments for longer stays, wrapped in a distinctive design identity that sets it apart visually from most Bogotá coliving inventory. Business travelers and remote workers who value polish and reliability over intimate community will likely find this the better fit of Fraile Homes' two Bogotá properties.

What it doesn't offer is Virrey's small-scale, everyone-knows-everyone community feel — Tokyo Plus is a building, not a shared home, and its established but somewhat middling third-party review scores (particularly the facilities score) suggest a solid, dependable stay rather than an exceptional one.

[TO CONFIRM] This review would sharpen considerably with confirmed room counts, a resolved explanation for the 60-guest listing anomaly, and a few sourced, attributed guest quotes pulled directly from Tokyo Plus's existing OTA review history — the details that would take this from a solid property overview to a full CoDNX-grade review.
