For the price it's not worth it. The beach area is very dirty and vendors are bothering you constantly. My wife made the mistake of having a drink with ice and ended up with a stomach bacteria. The room was clean, but extremely small. The balcony door lock was broken. They had a party by the pool which kept us... More

Let's start off with a positive note The Good: the hotel rooms themselves were clean and nice with great beds. If you did not look off the balcony to the right or left and overlooked the shoddy construction zone and abandoned boat in the mud, as well as the unpainted balconies of the apartment buidlings attached to the property (more...

Paying $170/night to stay here is a rip-off. Major complaints: - hotel exterior and balcony chipped and dirty, door handle to balcony faulty - breakfast good but restaurant food poor (the attempt at pizzas was shocking) and expensive ($18 for pork and chips) - no umbrellas by pool - the beach is a scam-zone ($60 for a massage, $100 for...

We stayed one night during the low season and received royal treatment at reception, room, pool and restaurant. A la carte menu was top class and dishes perfectly cooked. The place was impeccable, beds super comfortable, every appliance worked including wi-fi an the sunrise was spectacular. The hotel is a little away from the old city but only 15 minutes... More

My lasting impressions..... Cartagena is trying very hard to compete with the other 'sunny destinations' like Mexico, Cuba, or the Dominican, but they are not there yet. Our trip including flight from Cali Colombia to Cartagena Colombia and our hotel for 4 nights was about $600 CDN each. This also included our breakfast, but not lunch or dinner. The beach... More

Nice hotel, clean and friendly. I was in business so I could not try it as I would like it, but what I love is that you have large pools and you dont need to fight for a place!. In fact they were allways with very few people if any. Rooms are spacious and modern. The hotel is in front... More

The Pros: Two well maintained beautiful pools The staff is very service oriented and goes out of their way to be accommodating The rooms are nicely appointed The free breakfast is delicious The cons: The beach access is dilapidated. You almost feel like you are walking through a junkyard to get there. The beach itself is dirty, as is the... More

We visited this hotel expecting the level of service and amenities of a global hotel brand such as Sonesta and the experience they promised in their website. Our visit was pleasant, the staff was very nice and helpful but the spa was not functioning because they had no staff, the hotel personnel was not really informed of the services the... More

The hotel is located 5 km from the historic city. The beach in front of hotel is not safe after 6 PM. The hotel has 2 swimming pools. Both very clean. But just one has bar service. The rooms are wide and modern. Contras: it is possible to hear any movement pf the aisle and the clock alarms from the... More
