to get started.

The location, amenities, style and staff were all above and beyond exceptional. It was a beautiful hotel and made our visit to Cartagena so lovely. The pool area was especially nice - much needed in the hot sun as the direct beaches in Cartagena aren't nice for laying out.

The hotel is beautiful and in a wonderful location inside the walled city. our room was very basic, in the wing by the pool. it was really nothing special - looked like any room with 2 beds but the beds were so comfortable. our friends stayed in a suite in the convent area and it was really beautiful. upgrade if you can!

The room of the hotel look like a basic room from a Novotel, the deco don t coresponding to a Legend, it s no because you are in a old historic place that you should use the Legend terms. The only good think is the quality of the bed. Concerning the food we order a plate of 5 cheese and they were very basic one, it s very surprising for a french group. The Cesar salad was also disappointing. For the rate they charge we could expect something much better.
Quality of the bed, very nice old patio.

Little to think of as it was such a great place to stay. They could stop people leaving items on beds to reserve them ( up to 3 hours in many cases so if full it would be hard to get a bed near the pool)
Central location and excellent property. The 1621 restaurant was a No1 hit and the cocktail bar an absolute must

There was nothing to dislike
The entire ambience and vibe was of kindness and excellent service.Luxury and class beyond the norm in todays world.The pool was an oasis of tranquility with service from the staff with smiles and desiretoserve. Wonderful Gym,small but again, Wilber went above and beyond to assist.Finest Hotel in Latin America without a doubt.To illustrate a point,I was staying on a split schedule due to availability,somehow I was given a suite overlooking the pool which normally costs thousands, for the price of a classic room...just because.Pure heaven!

Coming from the belmond hotels in peru it,s a step back in details, room only with a small window ( c33 for 1000 dollar a night), they charge extra if u want an egg Benedict for breakfast, breakfast only of average quality ( hard mangos), water at the pool at cost ( they bring u bottled water if u don’t ask explicitly otherwise), service very irregular depending of the person.
Location fantastic, room well equipped, nice pool area, good concierge

Only that I couldn't stay here longer! There is not one thing to fault this hotel for.
Historical fabulous hotel not to be missed. We enjoyed the storytelling tour to learn about the historical background. The staff were very attentive. We had an issue with a loud air conditioner and within 10 minutes a repair man came and took care of it. Splurge and you wont regret it! The food was also outstanding.
