Estelar Cartagena de Indias Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location"

Sofitel Legend Santa Clara Cartagena

10/10 Excellent

"The Sofitel in Cartagena is the definition of a sanctuary/oasis in the middle of a tropical city. The garden in the courtyard is extremely beautiful and unique in itself. The design in general really reflects the beauty of Colombia, and when eating at the restaurant (either by the pillars or in the middle of the garden), it feels as if you are eating in the jungle. The location is incredible, as it is just off the north shore wall by the sea in the heart of the Old City (away from all the main shops which is great because of all the foot traffic when it's busy during the day and at night), making for beautiful evenings on the rooftop bar where you can enjoy some live music while watching the sunset. Our main waiter during our stay, Jorge, was wonderful and made our dining experience even better with his smile and friendliness. The food was outstanding, and I have only eaten at the hotel restaurant while staying in the city. Since this property is roughly 30 years old, there are some areas that are starting to show its age (e.g. the gym, the washrooms by the pool), but aside from that, this property is arguably one of the most beautiful in the entire city of Cartagena. Overall, another lovely visit (this was my second time staying here) and I would not stay anywhere else besides this hotel."

Sofitel Barú Cartagena

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was outstanding in every way—the food, the scenery, and the luxurious, yet understated design. I had been searching for a specific type of beach resort for a long time—one that was small, quiet, yet still maintained the family atmosphere—and the Sofitel Barú checked every single one of those boxes. Aside from the beach not being very long, meaning we could only take short walks along the water, there were always beach chairs available and there were also daily barbecues around lunch time, which were some of the many highlights for my son and me. The staff were all incredibly warm, and the hotel manager, Juan Luna, was also very helpful and was always there to ensure that we were enjoying our stay and that are accommodations were met. Overall, a wonderful stay filled with positive energy and good vibes, reflecting the beautiful spirit of Colombia that makes us excited for our next visit hopefully very soon!"

Grand Sirenis Cartagena

8/10 Good

"My stay was amazing. Diana was a gracious host any problems we had she immediately solved them and if we had any questions or concerns, she took care of them immediately. She also recommended places to go and also arrange for our safe transportation. The other staff was also very gracious and helpful if we needed anything, they went above and beyond to help us. The only downside was the food. Not much seasonings. But overall, I would definitely recommend and come back to stay."
