Location is great, right in Getsemani but quiet at night. The little pool on the rooftop was great after sunset to play a bit with our 3yo son, otherwise there is no shade. Breakfast was delicious. Beds are very comfortable.

Cartegena has so much culture and history. The food was fantastic! There is live music in every restaurant and bar. Traditional dancing can be found in the squares and you just need to tip. Just be aware of all the street hustlers, especially the rappers who will follow you. The old town comes alive after 8pm. Be prepared for the 90-100% humidity during the mid-day. It is best to site see early in the morning or evening and siesta or pool lounge during the mid day.

The "Old City" is beautiful and historic - and has excellent gelato! Unfortunately, no Dr Pepper...
The beaches are good, and provide a diversion (or a primary reason to go, if you are young) and a completely different atmosphere.

Lots to do if you work with local tourist agents.
Lots to do if you work with local tourist agents. Leave the area and go to Baru for glowing plankton or boats to Rosario archipelago. Old town. Watch out for street vendors selling trinkets and being too pushy.

The best attraction in Cartagena de Indias is the National Aviary of Colombia. There should be more options to visit it for more than 2 hours.
Photography tours with Paola Sanchez are also great for people who love photography.

A lot of great food options, best seafood in Colombia.
A lot of great food options, best seafood in Colombia.
Our favorites:
- La Cevicheria
- La Mulata
- Cafe del Mar ( bit pricey for what it is, but worth it for the sunset drinks )
- El baron ( great tapas in the middle of the square )
Town with a rich history and lots of important landmarks and sights to visit. Great colonial architecture, colorful streets and lively people.
It is very touristic, with a lot of locals non stop trying to sell/push tours/restaurants and goods on the street, felt a bit like India sometimes. There are great street performances of dance groups and artists happening, which i enjoyed a lot though!

Great place to visit as long as you don't mind being harrassed non stop by street vendors trying to sell you hats, cigars, sunscreen, tchotchkes and other things, having menus constantly thrown in your face or being honked at by multiple cab drivers if you stop on a sidewalk for even a second wanting to know if you need a ride. Everything worth seeing in Cartagena can be seen in one day, two tops if you want to see some places out side the city

The host was very informative about everything which I really liked, the hotel was really nice and clean, same as our room, the views were spectacular from our room. Security was on top of everything making sure we were good with everything. We walked to the historic city which was about 15-20 min walk from the hotel which wasnt bad at all. Even though theres a shopping mall right next door with theres also a convenient store exactly 1 block behind the hotel, which was really good to know. I highly recommend this place if you visit Cartagena.
We absolutely loved this hotel, during our 3 weeks travelling through Colombia it was by far the best hotel we stayed in.
- the decor is lovely, very Mediterranean
- all of the staff were all so attentive, kind and just couldn’t do enough for you
- they made fresh juice everyday which was a really nice touch
- breakfast is great
- the owner, Louis was so lovely and very helpful. he spent a lot of time advising us and making sure our stay was the best it could possibly be
- the terrace is beautiful, make sure you experience it!
The staff all around (Aldolfo, in particular, I believe was his name) is amazing. Everyone is kind, very courteous, and helpful. The hotel staff arranged for a PCS Covid test for me at the hotel prior to my departure. And that went well. There was always good amenities (pool area, full breakfast, towels and bathroom items).
Location is superb. A few blocks walking from Old Town and Getsmania areas where the nightlife is at. Wonderful historic plazas and buildings all around, a real old colonial feel.
The decor of this hotel is amazing. I've visited Cartagena before and love the vibe of these small boutique hotels. The bed was extremely comfortable. The staff was super helpful in obtaining reservations for us throughout our stay, brokering the charter of a boat, and we even ate dinner from the hotel restaurant in a private room one night. The breakfast was perfect and there was a lot of variety. We visited in a group of 8 and we all absolutely loved our stay.
Prime location within the old city. Every street we took seemed to place us back at the hotel without even trying- that’s how central it was to the action. That being said, if you don’t like the action/nightlife, it can be a lot. I slept with ear plugs provided by the hotel, and they worked well. Breakfast got me out of bed every morning; they had yummy continental and Colombian offerings. I would happily recommend this hotel!
This is an impeccable boutique B&B, located right in the centre of the old city. It has beautiful , newly-furnished rooms with every conceivable mod-con and the most comfortable beds ever! The breakfast menu (and the cocktail menu) were both very elaborate. Itnotonly has a small pool(and jacuzzi), but you can also use the pool (and other facilities) of the sister hotel, located a block away.
Location was excellent, but was also the only drawback. Gaiety in the street outside until well after midnight. Trinity Church plaza nearby was home to Indian folk festival, terrific breakdancing. Restaurants, art galleries, street food all close at hand. Total fun. Easy walk to Old City.
Yolanda and Gladys steered the ship magnificently.
THE HOTEL IS A CLASSIC IN CARTAGENA. HIS OLD FASHION MODE IS REALLY COOL FOR A PLACE THAT IS FULL OF HISTORY AND TRADITION LIKE THIS HOTEL. THE ROOMS SHOULD BE SOMELIKE REFURBISHED SPECIALLY THE AIR CONDITIONER A LITTLE BIT NOISY . THE STAFF IS VERY ATTENTIVE AND THE OPEN AREAS AROUND THE SWIMINGPOOL ARE VERY ENJOYABLE AND BEATIFULL .
My first time staying in the Getsemani neighbourhood. An up and coming area with now many boutique hotels, bars and restaurants. An alternative to the traditional old city, which was refreshing. The hotel has very nice decorations, and the service was second to none. Breakfast is a la carte but diverse and very Colombian,
Excellent customer service from day 1 to day 7. The rooms are excellent and the front desk was very attentive of our requests throughout the stay. Greta breakfast and the hotel is one block from the beautiful beach of Cartagena. Price was really good for the location and amenities of this hotel. Lo recomiendo.
A good hotel like a Hilton needs to be, Big room with comfy beds. Good cleaning of the room. More than a good breakfast for Colombian standards. Friendly staff and clean hotel. Nice bar and restaurants and a really good pool, private beach, and pool bar with a lot of good food on the menu.
The hotel is very central to the old town. Once we travelled by taxi from the airport we didn’t need another taxi until we left. Everything of interest is in walking distance.
The small pool on the roof was nice with great views of the old city square.
Pros: Clean, good AC, good location, wifi worked good, good price. All around a good hotel for the price. Had lots of plans for Cartagena and really only needed a good clean hotel to sleep and Ibis was it. very good value for the price.
Staff was superb, excellent breakfast, and just a beautiful hotel - the terraces and the pool were fabulous and a great way to relax on our last day in Cartagena. It's a short walk into the old city but along a pretty busy road.
Nice little boutique hotel not too far from the old city centre. Although the swimming pool is small it was so nice to be able to cool down in the pool after exploring the city. The rooms are clean and have air-conditioning.
Beautiful colonial house garden hotel. An oasis from the busy walled old city at the end of the street. Gorgeous big room with terrace and direct access to pool in garden setting. Very accomodating and friendly staff
The hotel is well situated in Getsemani and the old city is around a 10-minute walk away. Rooms were a good size (we booked single and were given double rooms). Clean en-suite bathrooms.
The "smart rooms" are a very significant upgrade from the other rooms in the hotel. The hotel is located right across from the beach and the Ciudad Amurallada is about 10 min by Uber.
