The breakfast in the morning in the restaurant of the hotel was amazing. The property was well maintained and very clean. Staff was extremely friendly! Especially Jorge, the concierge at the front desk who basically helped with setting up at of the activities we did as making wonderful suggestions. The neighborhood of Getsemani is where you want to be and it’s walking distance to everything. I would definitely recommend it to others and stay here again.

If you want the sanitised version of Cartagena stay in Bocogrande. For us Old Town was ‘too polished’ but this area gives you a real feel and the hotel is first class.

The hotel is beautifully designed, comfortable and functional. It was fun to be next to the cool neighborhood of Getsamini and only a 10 minute walk from the town center. Rey was the best - he helped us with so many things when the rest of the staff was unable to. He should be the boss!

“Recommended. Wonderful room; very comfortable, great staff, five minutes walk to main gate old city.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 3 nights
Only downside to our room was that it was on street level so we couldn't have open shades to let in natural light in the AM. as it was open to view from street.
Great room; lovely staff; very good breakfast. Good location just minutes from gate to old city in Getsemani neighborhood where there are restaurant choices if you don't eat in the old city. Many reviews spoke of noise and late night activity inside walls of old city, so we opted to stay here, just a five minute walk from the main gate to town. Very happy with the decision. We took a larger room (suite?) and were very comfortable. Great bed, large TV with BBC/CNN, etc. Staff very friendly and helpful. Very good breakfast (fruit plate, local fresh juices, rolls, plus very good a la carte made to order choices). Small rooftop dipping pool with adjacent bar, neither of which we used. Nice public sitting areas at various points on the property, including charis just outside door of room facing a decorative pool. Housekeeping staff very good. We were on a ground level street facing room with heavy windows and strong shades. Some reviews spoke of such rooms being noisy but that was not our experience. No bars just outside. Some reviews also spoke of breakfast not being of the standard expected at this price level, but we found the breakfast options to be very good, varied and quite tasty. If you want a buffet, go to the Hyatt!

“not what it seems”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Stayed 4 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Eventually, just about everything, especially given the price. We came back one afternoon to no water, every day I had to get my room rekeyed, no dirty laundry bags or wet clothes bags, pool filthy by late afternoons, woken up at 6am by disgruntled and noisy hotel workers several mornings, ceiling leak in my bathroom & sink faucet VERY loose, breakfast juice watery and kitchen unwilling to accommodate allergy needs , worst was having Christmas dinner sold to us as only food available on Christmas eve. only to see other guests/employees eating off the regular menu at a fraction of the price. The Christmas dinner was the most over-priced,abysmally crappy meal that has ever been presented to me in a dining establishment . We immediately complained and the managers, while present, continually avoided us for the next 3 days. Desk staff unable to resolve, and multiple letters eventually resulted in several written hotel commitments to refund us money they insisted we pay for the dinner in question. The refund has never occurred and it is now being dealt with with our Credit Card. Looks nice, but NOT as represented. We watched numerous different guests argue with staff about mini-bar charges while staff kept us waiting in the front desk area trying to, but not resolving our issues; seemed like a pattern! I would avoid!
not much...looked nice on arrival, but that rapidly changed over the several days we stayed there....If you are going to spend the money to stay here (expensive), stay at one of the several other high end hotels in Cartagena.

“Don't get a room facing the street! Other than that, great hotel!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children

The rooms face the very busy street. I'm sure if you get a room inside the property not facing the street, you could actually sleep.
The hotel was spotless. Beautiful and spacious rooms, the pool and sundecks are really nice and offer a good view. The food at the restaurant is very good as well.

Very Poor
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 2 nights

The first room we were placed in was filthy and had to be re-cleaned. The shower then didn't work and we had to be moved rooms on the second day of our stay meaning packing our belongings up once again. We were moved to a nicer room facing the street and on our second night were kept up all night due to the noise on the street. It was like nothing I have ever experienced before. The staff were frustrated with our complaints and at one point began arguing with me because I wouldn't accept that I had to wait to be allocated another room, despite having paid for a two night stay. It is absolutely astonishing that this hotel is detailed as a 5* hotel. The rooms are comfortable enough but it seems futile if you're unable to sleep because of the excessive noise. I would not recommend staying here, it is not worth the money at all, for in excess of £200 a night, I expect a luxury experience. Also we had no hot water for the entire stay.
The rooms, when clean, were comfortable.

“Underwhelmed for a supposed 5star hotel”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 2 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
Unfortunately we found ourselves in an ant infested room. After pleading we were able to switch rooms but this was only after the manager initially requested that we wait until she is back from annual leave which would have been half way through our stay. The manager, or anyone else for that matter, didn’t even bother to check how things were for the rest of our stay. Overall staff lacked the attentiveness we would expect from a 5 star hotel particularly given the cost of the hotel (and compared to their competitive the Bastion which is a cut above). Overall extremely disappointed given the amount we paid. Stay at the Bastion instead!
Location, building itself is fabulous
