The hotel is in an excellent location. We could walk to all the places of interest. The staff are warm and friendly. Andres was especially very helpful. The breakfast was simple but nutritious enough. I would definitely recommend this place.

I love tge customer service and professionalism of the hotel.
My husband and I spent 5 wonderful days here. We were very happy because it was a very clean hotel, with excellent service from all the staff in the different areas, great breakfast, and a beautiful view.
So very convenient in the old town and within walking distance to all sites and restaurants.
The rooftop has a great view and you get a complimentary drink ticket w your stay!
Excellent service, delicious breakfast and very attentive staff. Centrally located and within walking distance to anywhere you want to go in the old city.
We came to Cartagena to celebrate our 10th anniversary and Sophia did not disappoint. We were upgraded to the suite and the service and amenities were amazing. Breakfast really stand out! Special thank you to Erik, Karen and Daniel for a great service! We will come back!
