Casa de Alba Hotel Boutique

From the moment we arrived at Casa de Alba, we felt truly special—like we were being welcomed into a home rather than just checking into a hotel. The property itself is stunning, with a rich history and an elegant charm that’s hard to match. Our room was incredibly comfortable, blending modern amenities with traditional Colombian style. The food was exceptional—each dish bursting with flavor and authenticity. But what truly stood out was the impeccable service. Every staff member went above and beyond, especially Leyla—a vibrant, warm, and genuinely joyful hostess who made our stay unforgettable. This isn’t just a hotel; it’s an experience. If you're visiting Cartagena, this place will elevate your trip in every way.

NH Cartagena Urban Royal

This small hotel is incredibly peaceful and well-located right on the Plaza del Reloj, making it perfect for exploring Cartagena's historic center. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout my stay. I stayed in room 225—while the bathroom was functional, the shower area felt a bit cramped and could use a bit more cleaning attention. Everything else was spotless and comfortable. Despite that minor detail, the overall experience was excellent. Great value, great location, and a welcoming atmosphere—definitely a place I’d return to and recommend to fellow travelers looking for a quiet, central base in Cartagena.

Life is Good Cartagena Hostel

Absolutely amazing! The food was out of this world—way better than we expected. We came to Cartagena looking for trendy restaurants with a buzz, and stumbled upon this hidden gem. The fried plantain chips were fresh, crispy, and served right when we ordered—perfect start to the meal. And the seafood pasta? Rich, flavorful, and packed with bold local taste. If you love authentic, well-seasoned dishes, this is your spot. What made it even more special was the cooking class they offer—hands-on, fun, and a great way to connect with other travelers. Super welcoming staff, great vibe, and easy access by public transit. A must-visit for any food lover in Cartagena!

Los Patios Hostel

Absolutely stunning! From the moment I arrived, the staff greeted me with a delicious local fruit and made me feel right at home. The hostel is immaculate—every floor feels like an art installation, from the ground level to the rooftop hot tub. The food and drinks were fresh, flavorful, and served quickly. I especially loved the rooftop area—it’s perfect for relaxing or just soaking in the vibes. The team was attentive without being overbearing, and when I checked out at 11 AM, they kindly let me leave my things behind so I could continue enjoying the facilities. They even handed me a traditional local sweet from their café as a farewell gift—such a thoughtful touch. Honestly, I’d give this place 10 out of 10, but if I could go lower, I’d still be giving it 10. It’s more than a hostel—it’s an experience. If you’re in Cartagena, don’t miss it.

Encanto Rentals at Sunno Beach

The stay was absolutely wonderful overall—perfect location right by the beach, peaceful and convenient for exploring Cartagena. The property was clean, well-maintained, and had a lovely tropical vibe. Mauricio’s hospitality truly stood out—he was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home. The only minor issue was the mattress being a bit too firm for our comfort, which slightly affected our sleep quality. However, that didn’t take away from the excellent experience. Every other detail was spot-on, and the value for money was outstanding. I’d definitely book again and highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in Cartagena.

Torres del Lago Apartamentos

I wouldn't recommend this property. While the location in Cartagena is convenient—close to downtown and easy to get around by public transit—the actual condition of the apartment was far from what we expected. The unit felt dirty and poorly maintained, with visible dust and grime in corners and crevices. To our horror, there were cockroaches everywhere—under the sink, in the kitchen, even near the bed. The appliances shown in the photos didn’t work at all: the air conditioner was broken, the stove wouldn’t ignite, and the fridge barely cooled. It’s clear the listing photos are misleading. We ended up spending more time fixing issues than enjoying our stay. For a better experience, I’d suggest looking elsewhere—there are definitely much cleaner, more reliable options in the area.

Sofitel Legend Santa Clara Cartagena

Staying at the Sofitel Legend Santa Clara Cartagena was an absolute delight. As one of only three luxury hotels in the city and the largest among them, it truly feels like stepping into living history. The garden featured in the photo is lush with tropical greenery, surrounded by weathered columns and ancient stone walls—perfect for a peaceful breakfast in the morning sun. I’d heard great things from fellow travelers online, and being an Accor member, I decided to book here. From the start, the service was warm, professional, and genuinely attentive. What surprised me most? They handed me a welcome gift—a generous bag of Colombian coffee! Such a thoughtful touch that made my stay feel extra special. I also happened to witness several wedding celebrations during my visit—families in full formal attire gathering in the courtyard, capturing memories against this stunning backdrop. That final photo had me laughing out loud. This hotel isn’t just about luxury—it’s about soul, heritage, and unforgettable moments.
