The location is great, the hotel itself is also very good. The breakfast / restaurant location is very enjoyable and the staff are friendly and helpful. The room was also very nice and the bed very comfortable. The rooftop location by the pool could benefit from additional shade / parasols. This is a minor point but the hotel could do more to disguise the view on the outside air conditioning units when up on the rooftop (not visible from all areas however). Overall a very good hotel in a good location.

Recibimos muy mal trato de Roy y Yarlenis, nos cobraron extra por una menor de 14 años cuando teníamos la reservación de una habitación para 3 personas, desconocieron que mi hijastra fuera la hija de mi esposa pidiendo documentación del padre, fueron mal educados, súper groseros y este hotel no vale lo que cobran, nos sentimos robados y no regresaremos , no lo recomendamos y ojalá que algún general manager supervise el mal customer service de esas amargadas personas Roy y Yarlenis .

This was an amazing experience. The location was perfect and very safe. The staff was top tier and the housekeeping did their thing. Housekeeping came at least twice a day sometimes 3. Every day we stepped into a nice clean comfortable room. The breakfast was included and it was really good. The hotel has some of the best food in the area. The staff from the front door, to the front desk, to the rooftop were all amazing. Only suggestion would be to have a concierge to help plan excursions. This hotel is great if you want to relax and unwind not a lot of activity going on at the hotel but right out side you will have action. We came to celebrate our 3 year anniversary and we stayed for 8 days. It also would have been nice to have the room decorated but we had some language barrier as to what we were requesting. Overall 10/10

Excellent option in Cartagena. Great food, very nice spa, perfectly located in the corner of the walled city. My only "complaint" is that a 5 star hotel should have a gym. A tiny room with 1 treadmill, 1 elliptical, and dumbbells from 5-25 lbs is not a gym.
