OMG Hotel Estelar was magnificent, right as we entered the property we were greeted by Raul with the greatest smile, it was always a pleasure to see him as we were coming or going. he kindly helped us with directions, subjections, and with transportation. at the 15th floor at the lobby, we encounter Mr. Martin who also helped us with our check in and gave us a super nice room with a spectacular ocean-view. their breakfast Buffey style was great, there was something for everyone, as we all don't eat the same for breakfast, it was a glamourous touch to have a fruit salad bar, different style of eggs, the delicious pancake stand with 4 different topping, the bread stand was to die for. also, the staff at the breakfast room was super attentive, they had people going thru the tables making sure you never run out of coffee, Gedionis was who tended us during breakfast for our three days stay, he was very friendly and even told us about the many places around the city when we asked him. his recommendations were 100% true and we had a tremendous time. his first recommendation was the 51st Sky Bar. the 51st Sky Bar had the best drinks and music; the views from up there were the crown of our trip. Would definetly stay at Estelar on my next visit to the beautiful cartagena.
