Perfectly nice stay on a busy street
Pros:

Good location, within walking distance of everything and down the street from Plaza Santo Domingo. Our room was clean and minimal, with a balcony looking out on the street. It served its purpose for this trip but the location is a bit crazy and right across the street from a KFC, so I think we would choose to stay somewhere else next time.

Cons:

Unfortunately the pool was closed for maintenance the entire time we were here, which was disappointing (especially during such humid and sweltering days). I do wish we had been told ahead of time this would be the case as the pool was a big draw in our booking. We ended up booking a day pass at the Sofitel’s pool instead.

Unbelievable Amazing stay
Pros:

We arrived and were welcomed with an amazing fruit drink. Christian, Martin were amazing, so helpful. This hotel takes you back in time. The spanish architecture is stunning. Such a lovely experience.Every morning we had an amazing free breakfast. The pool was beautiful, so peaceful we were the only ones using. Felt like this was our own house to use. They make you feel number one. If you’re looking for a quaint, charming 5 star experience then you need stay here when you visit Cartagena. My husband and I will return for sure. Many thanks to everyone making our stay so enjoyable.

Great location, friendly staff
Pros:

I really enjoyed my stay at this property. The location was excellent and felt very safe, which made it easy to relax and explore the area. The room was clean and well-maintained, and the bed was especially comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep. I also appreciated having access to the pool—it was the perfect way to unwind and cool off after a busy day.

Cons:

There wasn’t anything that I disliked. I would just say don’t get your washing done here as it’s very expensive.

Absolutely loved my stay here — a clear 5-star experience
Pros:

The historic building is beautiful and full of character, and at the same time everything has been beautifully renovated to a very high standard. The common areas are cozy and perfect for relaxing. My room was quiet and very comfortable — a great place to rest after a day in Cartagena.

The rooftop pool is fantastic, especially in the heat. But what really made this place special were the people: the staff are super, super friendly and made me feel welcome from the very first moment. A perfect mix of charm, comfort, and great hospitality.

Pros:

La localisation est parfaite en plein centre de carthagène, le petit déjeuner est super bon avec plusieurs options, la salle du petit déjeuner est belle avec un beau balcon, l’architecture de la maison est belle et le salon est magnifique. Le ménage passe chaque jour et on rafraichit la chambre chaque soir quand on est sorti pour diner. Le lit est super confortable. La terrasse et la piscine sur le toit sont agréables pour se reposer.

Cons:

Sur booking nous avons choisi une chambre de 25 m carré et nous avons eu une chambre plus petite de 22m carré et le réceptionniste n’a fait aucun effort pour réctifier celà. En arrivant, on a trouvé un petit mot de bienvenue mais avec le nom d’une autre personne, je l’ai remis au réceptionniste mais aucune excuse ou attention. Nous n’avions pas de miroir dans la chambre. Nous avions un séjour de 3 nuits et les produits de bain (mouchoir ou coton) n’ont pas été remis quand nous avions utilisés ceux qui étaient là. Notre chambre donnait sur la rue donc du bruit la nuit mais on s’y attendait.

Bien situé, charme, personnel accueillant.
Pros:

Très bel établissement du 17 ième siècle bien rénové.

Cons:

En fait nous avons été un peu inquiet en arrivant à l’enregistrement. Sans charme, genre hôtel deux étoiles. Le personnel était très accueillant mais nous nous sommes inquiété de la suite. Ce qui s’est avéré de très bonne tenue. Meubles et équipements et piscine mériterait un rafraîchissement.

Pros:

Hotel situato nel pieno centro storico di Cartagena e pertanto in posizione ottima per poter girare comodamente a piedi sia di giorno che di notte. L'hotel è sicuramente suggestivo, trattandosi di un edificio coloniale perfettamente tenuto, ristrutturato e che allo stesso tempo ha conservato i suoi tratti originari.
La colazione à alla carta e si può scegliere tra tre diverse opzioni, non c'è molta varietà, ma alla fine il cibo non è poco e spazia dal dolce al salato, oltre alla frutta.
Ho trovato l'albergo molto pulito e lo staff disponibile.

Cons:

Decisamente caro rispetto a quello che offre. Sicuramente il prezzo elevato è dovuto alla posizione (pieno centro) e al fatto di essere un hotel boutique, però l'ho trovato veramente esagerato per il tipo di albergo, che benché bello, non valeva la cifra pagata. Infatti una delle due stanze che abbiamo prenotato, quella standard, era veramente piccola e non si poteva praticamente aprire la finestra per via del rumore dei motori dell'aria condizionata delle altre stanze, dando nel chiostro interno. Migliorerei l'offerta della colazione.
