Pros:

La habitacion es amplia y fresca. La cama muy comoda y el baño tambien muy amplio y bonito. El hotel es muy bonito

Cons:

La zona de la piscina y la terraza es muy bonita pero sin ambiente, cierran temprano la terraza en vez de aprovechar el espacio para ofrecer unos buenos cocteles porque el espacio es muy bonito y acogedor. No me gustó que el restaurante maneja unos precios muy elevados para el servicio, la comida y el ambiente del restaurante. La comida esta bien pero no como es un deleite como para cobrar platos tan costosos y me molestó que al desayuno pedi unos huevos secos y me los trajeron crudos, pedi que los hicieran mas pero el chef volvio a enviar los mismos huevos sin atender mi solicitud.

Excelente opción
Pros:

Divino, perfectamente limpio, habitaciones limpias, lindas y cómodas. El hotel tiene una decoración divina. El desayuno fantástico, gran variedad, incluyendo fritos costeños. El servicio y atención de lujo. La piscina en el rooftop es perfecta y aprecio mucho que la música sea a bajo volumen, pues lo hace un lugar tranquilo y para relajarse. El rooftop genial para ver el bello atardecer.

Cons:

Todo perfecto

The ultimate Cartagena experience: stunning views, elite service, and the city’s best breakfast
Pros:

Everything about this hotel is totally excellent. The property itself is stunning and exceptionally clean—I cannot emphasize enough how beautiful the design and atmosphere are.
The staff is incredibly professional, helpful, and genuinely friendly. Their attitude is amazing; their first response to any request is always, "Yes, we can help you with that." It makes you feel truly looked after.
A very special mention goes to the on-site restaurant, El Gobernador. After spending 15 days in Cartagena trying brunch and breakfast spots all over the city, I can confidently say that the best breakfast is right here in the hotel. It is worth staying here just for the breakfast alone!
Another highlight is the rooftop terrace. It is exquisite, offering an incredibly beautiful view of the Old City and Cartagena. There is also a great bar up there to enjoy the scenery with a drink.
I have no doubt that this is the best place for a relaxing and pleasurable stay. Do not hesitate to book it!
