Cocun Project Map Galerías Bogotá

NET-ZERO BUILDING · ELEVATED QUALITY OF LIFE · TIMBER LANDMARK IN BOGOTÁ

Invest in Bogotá's first timber hotel

Cocun Project plans a 20-suite boutique hotel in Galerías demonstrating that building with cutting-edge mass timber is highly profitable, efficient, and sustainable.

Forget the landlord hassles of conventional residential leases: here your investment enjoys full fiduciary trust backing with 100% turnkey delegated management.

The product

Hotel investment · Fiduciary rights · Mass Timber

Cocun is not a standard apartment building. It is designed as a 20-suite boutique hotel where exposed timber and biophilic architecture create a restful experience. A high-aesthetic real estate asset built solely for urban hospitality.

  • Premium Service: daily cleaning, immediate maintenance of engineered wood, and integrated gastronomic offering (Café/Restaurant).
  • El Campín (Culture & Sports)Massive concerts, professional soccer, and international events generate recurring peaks in hotel occupancy.
  • Shared Yield: Your returns do not depend on whether your specific suite is occupied. Net income across all 20 rooms is pooled and distributed monthly, mitigating vacancy risk.
  • Fiduciary Commercialization: The investment operates via fiduciary rights (FIDIS). Your funds are managed by a state-regulated trust entity.
Lifestyle, biophilia and market differentiation — interior timber design
This is how we project Cocun's interior: Although this image corresponds to the iconic Carbon 12 building (a global reference for mass timber), it illustrates the warmth, exposed wood, and acoustic comfort projected for our hotel. Learn more in our blog on interior design.
Investment criterion Traditional real estate Cocun Project
Asset management Active — collecting tenant rent, handling repairs and managing vacancies. 100% passive — fully operated by Nabilera.
Vacancy risk High — if the apartment is empty, the rent is $0. Mitigated — revenues consolidated in a pool of 20 rooms.
Construction speed BIM coordination in Mass Timber Fast — precision off-site manufactured components assembled on-site.
Ecological impact High embodied carbon emissions in conventional materials. Carbon sequestration net carbon sequestered through its engineered timber superstructure.

Why invest here?

Equipped laundry, vending machines, and operational technical rooms 24/7.

Location dictates steady cash flow: Galerías is an established, strategic neighborhood attracting year-round guests driven by strong economic anchors:

El Campín (Culture & Sports)Massive concerts, professional soccer, and international events generate recurring peaks in hotel occupancy.
Academic & Scientific Hub: Proximity to Universidad Nacional, Javeriana, and Guerrero Art Academy attracts visiting professors, researchers, and families for short and medium-term stays.
Taller de Ensamble Assembly logistics and hoisting of prefabricating Mass Timber components on-site.
Cocun Project
Cocun Project: Its modern mass timber exterior facade integrates naturally into the Galerías neighborhood.

More than a hotel

A Mass Timber landmark in Bogotá

Traditional concrete and steel construction is heavy, slow, and wasteful. Cocun will be the first 5-story hotel in Bogotá structured with a mass timber superstructure. We directly address market concerns with cutting-edge technology and measurable profitability:

01 / Fire safety

What happens in a fire?

Protective charring and physical properties of the material

Mass timber is highly dense and solid. In a fire, the outer layer chars, forming a cold insulating shield that protects the interior.

The core remains intact and with full load strength for hours, outperforming exposed steel.
02 / Clay soil loading

Does it support soft soils?

Up to 80% lighter than concrete

Galerías soil is clayey. By drastically reducing the building's weight, seismic forces on the structure decrease, minimizing deep foundation costs.

Less weight translates to greater stability and more efficient foundations.
03 / Construction speed

Is it fast to build?

Prefabricated assembly with digital precision

The structure is manufactured to the millimeter in-plant using CNC machinery and assembled on-site using mechanical connections like a puzzle.

Reduces total construction time by 30%, accelerating financial returns and avoiding noise.
04 / Fiscal and green viability

Why is it profitable to be sustainable?

Preferred credits and VAT exemption

Each m³ of mass timber captures 1 ton of CO₂. By certifying under green seals (CASA/CCCS), we unlock preferred banking rates and VAT exemption under Law 1715.

Construction decarbonization translates directly to financial relief and higher profitability.

Mass Timber and Glulam

Precedent: The largest mass timber building in the capital is the 4-story M-experimental block.

Hotel operation

Nabilera operates — you share in profits

Investors do not manage tenants or leases: Nabilera consolidates monthly net income from all 20 rooms and distributes returns directly.

  • Dynamic Revenue: Automated algorithmic pricing by demand, optimized across OTAs (Booking, Airbnb, Despegar).
  • Premium Service: daily cleaning, immediate maintenance of engineered wood, and integrated gastronomic offering (Café/Restaurant).
  • Experienced Operator: backed by Nabilera in urban hotel management and optimization of operational flows in Bogotá.
