The service and attention to detail by the staff was impeccable. My hats off to all of the employees of the hotel, they are awesome! It’s in a great location in the walled city that allows easy access, within a 10 minute walk, to all of the nightlife that Cartagena has to offer (we walked to and from the various bars and nightlife every night and felt very safe). There are hotel staff manning the entrance to the hotel at all hours. The hotel is also literally surrounded by local restaurants. Great pool, with a great pool bar. Great hotel restaurant! Huge shout out to the hotel bartenders! We had a group of 20 and they were awesome and didn’t miss a beat! I would recommend this hotel for anyone staying in the walled city. The room prices are premium, but for good reason.

They really take care of you at this hotel from hot towels and a welcome beverage to an easy ride to the airport. The staff are all incredibly kind and helpful and most of them bilingual. The property is stunning and well taken care of, and it’s close to everything in Cartagena. Pool is very nice, food is absolutely incredible, and the beds are comfy. Stay here!

We really enjoyed our Easter 2025 weekend in Cartagena. The hotel was spot on. I.m happy we selected this Hotel. Besides service and dining options what really intrigued me was the architecture of building a modern hotel within the walls of a monastery from 1621. Excellent example of creating a new experience with respect to the old History of the walled city of Cartagena.
