Bocagrande Avenida San Martin N°5 52, Bocagrande, 130015 Cartagena de Indias, Colombia –

Very comfortable and great location, staff is helpful and accommodating

Killa, United States of America

Good location although tour sellers stand at entrance approaching evey time you walk in or out

Albert, United Kingdom

The only good thing was the fact that the hotel was close enough to the beach and that the mall was across the street. It’s relatively close to many restaurants and markets but I still don’t think it’s worth it.

Jay, United States of America

The rooms are very tidy and staff are very hospitable and professional

Muhammed, United Arab Emirates

Confortable beds, nice location, very close to the beach in bocagrande.

Jully, United States of America

we had a room on the 7th floor. It was clean and the staff helped us with everything that we requested. try to get a room in the upper floors and on the backside, so it's a bit more quiet and you can see the sea on both sides.

Michael, Germany

Staff are very good but they spoke little or no English, except for one. Fruits at breakfast were excellent

Winston, United Kingdom

Me gusto mucho la ubicación y la amabilidad del staff

Andrea, Colombia

Die Lage des Hotels ist prima, ca. 5 min. Fußweg zum Strand. Das Personal war super nett und sehr hilfsbereit. Die Zimmer waren groß und sehr sauber. Für eventuelle Einkäufe ist ein großes Einkaufszentrum direkt gegenüber vom Hotel.

The hotel itself was decorated as if they wanted to be modern but on a mediocre ikea budget. There were stains on the wall, the air conditioning wouldn’t change temperatures after one day, the king size bed were two full beds pushed together. The bed was uncomfortable, the shower is toddler sized, and the room itself was just small. The breakfast was mediocre at best, scrambled eggs, bread, and fruit everyday. It wasn’t terrible but was all barely warm. You can’t have visitors in your room which sucks when you’re literally traveling single. By far the biggest waste of money.

My booking was for 1 bed and it even said extra large bed, instead I got a room with 2 small beds for me and my couple, I said something to the front desk and they didn't care, nothing was done about it, bathroom was in poor condition, no hot water either. They announced breakfast at 6am, Don't waste your time, it's more like 7:30. It's ok for a day but for a longer stay, look for something nicer.
Confortable beds, nice location, very close to the beach in bocagrande.
