Fabuleux !

Gros coup de cœur pour ce petit hôtel tenu avec beaucoup de soin par Gwendoline. La chambre était impeccable et très agréable, donnant sur un très joli patio. Le petit déjeuner est excellent, servi avec un jus et des fruits délicieux. Mais le gros plus, c'est l'accueil de Gwendoline qui nous a conseillé, renseigné avec beaucoup de gentillesse et de patience. Un grand merci !

Casa espectacular en el centro histórico.

Lo mejor de Casa Celta es su dueña, una persona magnífica que se preocupa mucho por hacer que la estadía de todos sea cómoda y agradable. El desayuno estuvo delicioso, y nuestro cuarto era muy cómodo: con aire acondicionado y todo lo necesario. El cuarto y el baño (y en general, toda la casa) estaban muy limpios. Casa Celta queda muy cerca de buenos restaurantes y sitios para comer y salir a tomar algo, pero suficientemente alejado para evitar el ruido nocturno de estos lugares. La localización es inmejorable. Ella tiene un gato, así que Casa Celta no es recomendable para personas con alergias a los gatos.

Comfortable and quiet small hotel.

This is an excellent small boutique hotel ran by Gwen, a French woman, who speaks Spanish, English, and French. She is extremely helpful and friendly and made our stay wonderful. Rooms are comfortable with private bathroom, AC, and ceiling fan. Breakfast is simple but good, with lots of coffee, tea, and fresh fruit juice. Location is in the heart of the historic centre and within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants and the beach.

A lovely small hotel, the owner a wonderful French lady, was so friendly and gave great advice on things to see and excursions in the area, Casa Celta has a real homely feel, it's more like staying with family, would love to come back.

Good location, not a great room, cash only

We didn't really like the place. The room was small and stuffy, no bathroom door, just a curtain. Wi-fi didn't work. The location was good for one night to see the historic center of Santa Marta. And there is a secured parking around the corner for cheap, so that's a plus. The owner locked us in for the night, meaning the door between the guestrooms and the main part of the house, where the entrance is. That was a bit weird. Also, be aware that you can only pay in cash!

Colonial House in central Santa Marta

Great little colonial house in the centre of Santa Marta. Friendly French lady owns and runs this place, with fascinating little ornaments adorning the walls and rooms. Easy to get to street with lots of little shops, and also a big supermarket a stone's throw away. A great stay and good price !

What a beautiful place to stay!

We spent 3 nights at Casa Celt, such a beautiful B&B in a great location close to everything. Our room was lovely, spaceous & clean with amazing bed linen. Most importantly it had aircon! The host Gwendaline is such an amazing & helpful lady. We loved staying with her. She helped us with advice on how to get to Tayrona national park and told us the alternate trail to take, also with getting to Minca. She let us leave our bags for a night while we went to Tayrona, gave us some refreshing freshly made juice after a hot days hiking, It's the little things that count and Gwendaline goes out of her way to make you feel comfortable in her home. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and would highly recommend the B&B to everyone.

An excellent first experience in a B&B.p. This B&B is charming house in the center of old town. Gwendeline is a wonderful host, who likes to share her experience and love for the region. She enjoys caring for her guests. I'm very grateful with her hospitality, and advice.

Non si ritrovava la prenotazione...

Attirati dalle ottime recensioni avevamo prenotato due camere per il nostro soggiorno a Santa Marta, ma arrivati la signora francese che gestisce il B&B ci dice di averne una sola... nonostante avessimo ricevuto la conferma da Hotels.com per due, lei insiste sul fatto che invece fosse una, cosa assai improbabile. Fortunatamente l'hotel nella strada affianco che ci ha consigliato era libero, e tutto sommato, per quello che abbiamo visto, il prezzo "europeo" di Casa Celta sarebbe stato inutilmente elevato per la Colombia, a prescindere dall'errore di prenotazione.

Wonderful host and charming b&b

Casa Celta is a delightful place to stay. The French host and owner is warm and welcoming and has terrific suggestions and recommendations for both Santa Marta and nearby excursions. The location is perfect -- easy walking distance to restaurants, the bay and a supermarket but is in quite calm neighborhood. Highly recommended!

Great location and very helpful staff

The location of the place is perfect for walking around Santa Marta. The staff was also extremely friendly and informed me on everything I needed to know, including some very good restaurants nearby. I was even able to leave my things for over 24 hours while I traveled out of town. Very helpful and the price was reasonable.

Cute guest house close to Parque de Novios.

This charming guest house has three rooms for guests and a helpful and accommodating owner who speaks English, French and Spanish. The rooms have air conditioning and are quiet and comfortable. Breakfast is served on a cute terrace with tropical plants and even a hammock for naps. Although billed as a "continental" breakfast, it was more substantial, including scrambled eggs, toast and jelly, freshly made fruit juices and coffee, chocolate,etc. The owner, Gwendolyn, is pleasant and offers helpful suggestions for activities. It's an easy walk down a pedestrian street to the lively Parque de Novios, with restaurants, bars and clubs.

Gwendolyn was very kind and friendly. she offered a small breakfast and map for us to use on our short stay. The bed was unfortunately very hard and the ac was loud and a little in your face. For the money, it was fine for a quick turnaround.
