Un séjour très agréable
Pros:

Nous avons été très satisfaites de notre séjour. Les prestations sont celles attendues pour un relais et châteaux avec en plus ce service personnalisé et chaleureux que permet le petit nombre de chambres.
Leonardo a su comprendre nos besoins et la suite junior était lumineuse et parfaite. Un grand merci à lui tout particulièrement. C’est un vrai professionnel.
Le petit déjeuner est varié et très bon. Les serveurs sont très agréables.
L’emplacement est impeccable dans le centre historique

Cons:

Des moustiques dans le patio. Les massifs de plates vertes près des tables devraient être supprimés

Casa Pestagua – Smaller, personal boutique property right inside the historic centre
Pros:

This was our second stay at the property, and it was a pleasure to return. The hotel was refurbished three years ago, and it was great to see the modern upgrades, including sound-proof windows and Japanese-style toilets, which significantly enhance the comfort of the rooms.

With only 16 rooms, the property offers a very personal and attentive experience. If possible, I highly recommend booking one of the suites with a balcony—it really delivers the full Cartagena experience. We personally prefer the smaller Pestagua property over its sister hotel, San Agustín, as it feels more intimate and personable.

The staff were outstanding throughout our stay. Yeily and Leonardo at the front desk were consistently helpful, Katherine, the Rooms Manager, was warm and welcoming, and Carlos, our waiter, was a true professional.

We look forward to returning in the future—Cartagena is always a fun and memorable destination.

Cons:

One minor downside was that mosquitoes around the pool area could be a bit annoying at times. Additionally, room rates during the New Year holiday period can be quite expensive, though this is somewhat expected given the season and demand.
