Gabriella United States of America

The room size was wonderful with a huge walk-in shower. The room was more than comfortable, and exceeded my expectations. The decor and the upkeep of the building is immaculate. Room service was quick. The breakfast has an assortment of options. Great location to everything!

Ervin United States of America

enough intimacy in the middle of the hustle of Cartagena

Juan Colombia

The pool was out favorite part. Since it was during the week we had it mostly to ourselves. Our attendant was amazing!! She knew what to get us the moment she saw us walk in. We will definitely return to the city that has captured our hearts! Thank you Bastión Hotel!

Alix Colombia

it was our last day at Cartagena and we chose this hotel to relax. we were so right! the spa rituals and treatments were amazing and Sandra was a darling! we could not have been more relax and well rested after a 5 day trip of dancing all night long. the staff was great and super helpful, they even let us into the breakfast buffete ahead of time so could be in the airport on time. they even offered if we wanted to have it boxed “to go” so we could have it calmly at the airport. we had dinner at the restaurant El Gobernador and it was great! entres are a good size but beware main courses are large 😂 we were stuffed before dessert. overall great experience
