Hotel Altamar Cartagena

The hotel was a wonderful experience overall—clean, well-maintained, and the room we stayed in was spacious, cool, and very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent: generous portions, varied options, and delicious flavors. The staff were attentive and friendly, especially the ladies working in the restaurant—they went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The pool was large, clean, and perfect for relaxing by. While it’s located in an industrial area, a bit removed from the main tourist zone, this actually worked well for us since we were looking for a quieter, more peaceful stay away from the crowds. It was still easily accessible by public transport and taxi. We felt completely at ease throughout our visit and would definitely return. Highly recommended for travelers seeking comfort, good service, and a calm atmosphere.

Hotel Bellamar

The hotel is located quite far from the main attractions, which made getting around a bit inconvenient, though that’s somewhat understandable given the price. However, the neighborhood is extremely noisy, making it nearly impossible to sleep peacefully at night. The worst part was the breakfast service— the staff member in charge had a consistently sour attitude, often scowling and tossing food items carelessly like they were throwing away trash. The breakfast itself was subpar, and the overall experience was unpleasant. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a comfortable stay.

Casa Roman

Staying at Casa Roman was an absolute highlight of my trip to Cartagena! The location is perfect—just a short walk from the historic district and all the main attractions, yet quiet enough to enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep. The hotel itself has such a charming, authentic vibe with beautiful details in every corner—like stepping into a romantic European storybook. The staff were incredibly warm and helpful, even offering a small welcome gift upon check-in. My room was spotless, cozy, and had a comfortable bed that made falling asleep easy—and waking up refreshed. The breakfast buffet offered a great mix of local flavors and fresh ingredients, making mornings truly enjoyable. It’s rare to find such charm, comfort, and hospitality at this level of value. I’d highly recommend Casa Roman to anyone looking for a memorable, intimate stay in Cartagena. Definitely planning to come back!

Hotel Sol Del Este

Our stay at Hotel Sol Del Este in Cartagena didn’t meet expectations. The air conditioning in the room was ineffective—even on maximum setting, it never felt cool enough, making it uncomfortable, especially during the hot evenings. We had to ask twice for towels, and despite being a couple, only one towel was initially provided. The bed was very uncomfortable—too firm and lacking proper support, which disrupted our sleep quality. To make things worse, there was only one electrical outlet in the entire room, which made charging devices a real challenge, particularly with multiple gadgets. While the staff were polite, the service responsiveness could be improved. Overall, the room didn’t deliver value for money, and we’d recommend looking elsewhere if comfort and convenience are priorities.

Casa del Puerto Hostel & Suites

Staying at Casa del Puerto Hostel & Suites in Cartagena was a pleasant surprise, especially considering the variety of hostels available in different neighborhoods like El Centro or Getsemani. Located near Manga, this place offers a unique charm with solid facilities—especially the pool area, where comfy loungers and a relaxed vibe make it perfect for unwinding. My room wasn’t quite what I expected, but it was clean and private, with an internal bathroom. One downside: no towels provided—just a heads-up if you’re planning to stay. The hostel is connected to other hostels offering group chats and activities, though I didn’t experience any during my visit—maybe timing or season affects that. The poolside bar was a highlight: great drink prices, laid-back music, inflatable mats, and decent food options, although it closes earlier than expected. Breakfast was included and surprisingly good—fresh fruit, juice, coffee, and delicious pancakes that stood out. Right around the corner is Verona Pizza, absolutely fantastic, just a short walk from Getsemani. Plus, there are supermarkets nearby, making daily needs super convenient. While it didn’t blow me away completely, the overall experience was solid, friendly staff, good location, and excellent value. Definitely recommendable for travelers looking for a relaxed yet central base.
