Hotel 1525 By GEH Suites, hotel in Santa Marta

Offering free WiFi throughout the property, Hotel 1525 offers accommodation in Santa Marta, 11 km from Zazue Shopping Centre. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar and a restaurant.

Gorgeous rooftop terrace to have breakfast on and watch the sunrise and sunset. The staff is friendly and helpful. The location is very close to the heart of Santa Marta, walking distance, as well as the bus terminal to get to Tayrona and other touristic spots. The mattress was firm and comfortable and the area was extremely quiet. I slept very soundly.

Lovely, ambient, comfortable bed, amazing breakfast, very nice staff. The area feels safe and is not right in the hustle of Santa Marta, just a little outside, but still at walking distance from the main street. They kept our luggage when we left for Tayrona for two days at no cost.

    We were expecting a beautiful beach with sunbeds, but it didn´t look very appealing to spend time there, so we had to go to Rodadero instead, it is of course crowded there, but the beach is nicer. The service is unfortunately not better and we also couldn´t find sunbeds at the beach, just chairs and the price was exagerated

    Santa Marta is a cool little town.

    Santa Marta is a cool little town. It seems more like the "local" vacation spot where Colombians go to vacation or the beach. My group seemed to be the only Americans in town. We found some great local restaurants and everyone was very nice. Very few English speakers though. Everyone recommends Playa Blanca - but it's only accessible by boat. We chose Playa Rodadero in town and it was fun. Lots of merchants constantly asking you to buy things though.

    Santa Marta is a nice city, but its historic town isn't of the same caliber as Cartagena. It is smaller and much less restored/developed. There is one long lane running through the historic district that has a lot of restaurants and cafes. The beach in Santa Marta proper is not very nice and is reported to be polluted. Given that there is a marina on one end and a large port for container ships on the other that is easy to believe. El Rodadero is a nice area, but again the caliber of the restaurants and cafes is not nearly that of Cartagena and it is much more of a party town than Boca Grande in Cartagena.

    The breakfast was delicious. Pancakes for a change from the usual Colombian breakfast. And there was lots of choices for breakfast, which was included in the price. The staff was helpful, booked our tickets to Cartagena with the company Marsol, which picked us up at the hostel, and dropped us off at our hotel in Cartagena. The bus ride went without any problems. The hostel is right in the middle of the old city, so we could walk around easily to all the sites and restaurants. Good relaxed vibes at the hostel.

    I recently stayed in this hotel. It is located in the center of the action in this part of Santa Marta, a few meters away there are restaurants of all kinds, bars, pubs, convenience stores, pharmacies, and craft stands. The staff is very friendly, always willing to help. The rooms seemed to be recently refurbished; clean, very spacious, and with very comfortable beds. I think it is important to mention that it is in front of a nightclub, so there is loud music and noise during the night.

    Friendly and efficient check-in at a budget-traveler minded hotel in El Rodadero and located close to restaurants, bars, and short walk to the beach. Clean, basic room with strong A\C and the nicest towels I’ve used in a Colombian hotel -thick, soft, absorbent -it’s the little things that sometimes make a big impact. This is a safe, secure, family-oriented hotel located close to anything you want to do in El Rodadero and it’s a great price for what you get.

    The location of the hotel is superb just at the centre of Santa Marta old quarter. Plenty of bars, restaurants and nightlife options within 1 minute walk. Modern chick design, tiny indoor pool and a roof terrace to chill out. Served breakfast is a tasty colombian standard: eggs, fruits, juice, corn cake (arepa) and coffee. Rooms are modern basic and clean. The staff is helpful. Good choice for short stays or for city and party lovers. Recommended.

    Highly recommended. Comfortable, clean, quiet hotel just a few short blocks from the center of Santa Marta. The owners, Liliana and Luis, are warm, attentive, and patient while answering all my questions. Staff are also very kind and helpful. One even cleaned my hiking boots that were mud-laden from the Ciudad Perdida trek, and they now look brand-new. (Don't forget the hammocks on the rooftop -- a delightful way to laze your afternoon away.)

There was a small balcony. The hotel had two separate deck areas - both with gorgeous views of the hills, El Rodadero city, and Rodadero Beach. The pool area was pretty.
