La ubicación

La habitación es vieja, fea, con basurera oxidada y extremadamente pequeña. No vale la pena pagar el monto por el tipo de habitación y atención recibida. La piscina es pequeña. Por su estructura hace un calor terrible y no llega la brisa del mar. Nos quejamos a varias veces y no hicieron nada. Lamentable q un hotel que se vende como 5 estrellas tenga instalaciones tan viejas y tan mala atención. El carro de la foto estuvo por más de 24h al lado de la habitación. A pesar de que dijimos nunca fue retirado.

Perfect sanctuary in the heart of the walled city Cartagena

10.0

A true five star property in the heart of old town Cartagena, Columbia. We booked our stay with American Express Fine Hotels and Resorts were upgraded to a nice room. We also had an included free daily breakfast, which was very good with made to order dishes and a healthy selection of buffet items. I would like to acknowledge two people who went out of their way to make sure we had a good experience: Matteo and Karem. Both were at the front desk, and made sure that our stay was perfect. Would definitely stay here again.

Magical Stay in the Historic City of Cartagena

10.0

It would be difficult to recognize everyone without unintentionally leaving someone out because the entire team was exceptional. We especially enjoyed interacting with Jeremy, Edison, Alejandro, Marco Antonio, Pedro, and Gabriel, who were always friendly, attentive, and welcoming. At Jardin Restaurant, Leonardo, Jorge, Maria, Claudia, Katherine, Clarabel, Alondra, and Oriana provided outstanding service and made every dining experience a pleasure. At 1621 Zharick and Jose were awesome! Truly, every member of the staff we encountered was fantastic and contributed to making our stay so memorable.
