La propriété — Edificio More
Edificio More is a functional 3-star hotel in central San Antonio del Táchira. Its lobby is clean but no-frills, with a reception desk often staffed by a single employee, and the atmosphere is that of a mid-century office block – efficient but forgettable. It suits travellers passing through, who need a secure room and desk space for the night, not charm or amenities. The USP is location: steps from the bus terminal and the international bridge to Colombia, making it a pragmatic base for border crossings.
Chroniques de San Antonio del Tachira
San Antonio del Táchira was founded as a colonial outpost in the late 18th century, officially as a parish in 1790 under the name San Antonio de Padua. Its growth exploded in the 20th century as a key binational trade hub, connecting Venezuela with Cúcuta, Colombia via the Simón Bolívar International Bridge. The city's architecture is a pragmatic mix of low-rise concrete buildings and strip malls, reflecting its role as a commerce-driven frontier town rather than a tourist destination. Today its identity is defined by its bustling border market and the daily cross-border flow of people and goods, giving it a rough-edged, transient feel.

December to February: drier season, lower humidity, and temperatures a pleasant 25–28°C; fewer rain delays for border crossings and minimal holiday crowds in July.
Peak / Festival surge
July is a peak month due to school holidays in both Venezuela and Colombia, driving family visits and cross-border shopping. Hotel prices in this 3-star property rise modestly, typically 10–15%, and the nearby Táchira Fair in August doesn't directly affect San Antonio but adds regional traffic.
La saison des épaules
April and October: still warm (28–30°C), sporadic afternoon showers, but hotel occupancy drops and base rates fall by up to 20%. Fewer tourists means quicker border procedures.
Météo & Emballage
San Antonio's climate is consistently hot and humid year-round due to its 600 m elevation in the Andes foothills. Pack lightweight, breathable long trousers and closed-toe shoes for evening mosquito protection, plus a foldable rain jacket for sudden downpours.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Edificio More, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 4th or 5th floor facing the interior courtyard (away from Calle 11). These floors are high enough to avoid street-level bustle but low enough for stable water pressure, and the courtyard side reduces traffic noise.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the 1st or 2nd floor facing Calle 11. These get direct street noise from a busy commercial road, and the lower floors may also pick up lobby or lift sounds.
Best views
A room on the 5th or 6th floor facing southeast (opposite the street) has a decent city view over low-rise buildings and more daylight. Front-facing rooms just see the street and opposite shops.
Quietest floors
Floors 4 through 6 typically offer the quietest experience, being above the street hum but not near any rooftop equipment or service areas.
🔊 Noise notes
Calle 11 is a main thoroughfare in San Antonio del Tachira, with constant moto-taxis, buses, and market traffic. The hotel's 3-star rating means minimal soundproofing, so street-facing rooms are noticeably noisy until late evening. The lift is also audible from adjacent rooms on all floors.
Insider tips
1) Ask for a top-floor room (6th) to avoid footfall noise from above — this hotel likely has no lift beyond the 6th, so less corridor traffic. 2) If driving, request a room on the same floor as the parking level (probably ground) to avoid hauling luggage; the lift is small.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Principales attractions à San Antonio del Tachira
💡 Go for evening mass around 6pm when the interior lights create a warm glow through stained glass. The side chapels are quieter.
💡 Try the queso de mano cheese from stall 14—crumbling, slightly salty. Bring small bills because vendors rarely have change for larger notes.
💡 The curator often gives a short tour in Spanish if you ask at the desk. Cash donation of 5,000 bolivars (about 10p) is appreciated but not required.
💡 Buy a fresh sugarcane juice and arepas from the cart near the northeast corner before 10am—after that the queue grows long.
💡 Go at 5pm for golden hour light. The walk up the dirt path is steep—wear trainers. Bring water as no shops on site.
