It is a gorgeous hotel with an amazing staff! This was my 4th stay and just love it.

Room was not available for the reserved date. I was assigned a room with different beds until the booked room became available. I was bitten in my arm by some kind of insect while sleeping, probably a centipede or spider, and a bacterial infection developed that required medical treatment for several weeks.

Full of history

The rooms were musty smelling. The staff was lovely.

The beautiful colonial building. The atrium is stunning! And great pool. Staff is very friendly.

Loved it!

Beautiful hotel. Excellent customer service. Sayd, Oscar and Luis from the Pool are beyond excellent.

Great staff, location, and beautifully restored historic property. We had a wonderful visit.

the best hotel in cartagena, nice staff and nice food

Best service and hotel in Colombia. My favorite hotel to stay at. The people are so friendly, the pool is amazing

Great check in and overall attendance from the staff. All almost perfect if we would not have our phone ring at 8am on the last day and people knocking on our door a couple of time before 11am! Concierge was great!!

The level of service provided at this beautiful, historic property is top notch. We enjoyed everything about the hotel especially the storytelling tour about the property.

Rooms need and upgrade. Food was mediocre and the service very slow
