Cartagena, a gorgeous fishing village on Colombia's Caribbean coast, has excellent beaches, a historic old town (that's entirely walkable) and beautiful colonial architecture. It's also one of the safest places in the country, so it's no wonder it's a popular port of call for cruise ships. Need a break from exploring the cobblestone streets? Stop at an outdoor cafe for excellent pastries and people-watching.

Overall Ratings
5 based on 451 reviews
A beautiful and romantic colonial guesthouse in Cartagena de Indias, in the vibrant and traditional Getsemani area, one of the last truly exotic places in the Caribbean, the most dynamic downtown location where new boutique hotels, bars and restaurants sprawl. Positioned in a quiet street, away from traffic and commercial activities, and just a few feet away from the Arsenal and the booming Calle del Guerrero and Media Luna night spots and at walking distance from all the best restaurants and attractions. The house designed by award winning architect blends colonial with mediterranean style and is decorated with items and maps collected during worldwide journeys. All rooms are custom designed. The cotto floors with spanish ceramic accents help you cool down and unwind surrounded by an abundant tropical vegetation with adult mango and palm trees. Guests can relax in the patios and enjoy an open air tile jacuzzi on the terrace and a mirador/solarium with views on the Cathedral, the churches of San Pedro and La Trinidad and the Castillo San Felipe. The house is on a north-south axis and enjoys plenty of natural ventilation
Great stay and location
Reviewed By Shevtriz24I was thoroughly impressed with this b&b. The location itself is reason to stay here. Everyone was welcoming and I was in love with my room. I was in Cartagena for 4 days but could only stay here for 3 as my room was not available on the fourth night. I felt extremely safe as a solo traveler staying here and would definitely recommend anyone else to as well. My room was also extremely clean. Any questions I had were answered by the staff and even though I couldn't partake in the breakfast too much (I left early for tours) it was good to know that it was available.

honeymoon
Reviewed By G2338UBmaryjMy husband and I spent two nights in the deluxe sweet for the last two nights of our honeymoon. The location was fantastic in the less posh section of the walled city -- the little plaza with the well that the hotel looks out on is lovely, and nearby Trinidad plaza is really fun as well. We loved the patio area with a jacuzzi tub outside our room -- and used it a lot. Perfect for resting our aching feet after a day strolling the city. The plants in that patio area are especially stunning and make for a romantic and relaxing spot. The rooftop terrace is adorable -- we loved the plants especially (someone really good seems to tend the plants throughout the hotel) and we enjoyed watching hummingbirds and other birds on the room. The service staff were very friendly and helpful and worked with our limited Spanish language skills. One issue is that the room wasn't super clean -- cobwebs on the lamps in the room, lamp fixtures outside the room, under the wardrobe, and grime-encrusted doors (around the doorknob) were not ideal. We also thought the breakfast was okay at best -- I was especially disappointed that the fruit was not fresher (it appeared as though it was cut up one or more days before being served vs. serving very fresh fruit cut just before serving). We did not swim in the pool, which was right beside the reception desk. Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much!

Nice setting, warm welcome
Reviewed By Nicky-PlymouthWe ate here twice during our stay in Cartagena. There wasn't too much choice in vegetarian food but the pasta with mushrooms was lovely. The second time I settled for pasta Neapolitan which predictably was a bit boring... the coco lemonade was a bit more icy than in other places, but still good and definitely refreshing. The staff were very friendly.

DO NOT STAY HERE
Reviewed By shainao420Do not stay here!!! I made a reservation here and paid up front ($245 for the night!) when we arrived at the hotel we were informed that they double booked our room and that they would get us a room in another hotel “close by”. The other hotel is in a different neighborhood, not even walking distance to the city center and costs half the price as this hotel. They refused to reimburse me for the price difference and although they called a taxi for us and paid for the taxi to the other hotel, it took a very long time.

Great location, all the basics (but austere)
Reviewed By MidwestBoomerThis is a tourist area—near colonial buildings as well as many restaurants. The hotel is close to a small grocery store in the Éxito chain (their contemporary shopping bags are cheap yet authentic souvenirs); a drugstore; and bookstores with maps and postcards. It’s more of a walk to Las Bóvedas, where souvenirs range from traditional tote bags all the way to Pablo Escobar tee shirts. Men were often wearing shorts—it was hot. Streets are narrow and traffic can be snarled; allow extra time. The hotel lacks an elevator, and one must climb 25 steps to the lobby. However, staff were very eager to help with luggage. The room was clean. I had a flat screen tv and remote. The lobby has computers and a printer. The bathroom seemed tiny. Running water was tepid (no choice of hot or cold). Towels were thin, and there was no face cloth. There was soap but no shampoo. There was no telephone in the room, but I had good cell phone reception. Wi-fi seemed slow at times. A grounded electrical outlet was near the bed. The light switch was not close to either the door or the bed. The air conditioning worked well. However, it was important to close the bathroom door since the bathroom had a roof vent. I did not have a window with an exterior view. This did have an advantage in that there was no problem with street noise. There was no deadbolt lock. There was a metal lock box in which I could place my valuables. I used one of my luggage locks to lock the box. There was no electronic safe.

Great place to recharge
Reviewed By Cecilia AI stayed just the last leg of my trip from Cartagena to MIA. What a great surprise. Clean, large rooms. Great beds. I chose Casa Crespo because it is near the airpot. Quiet. Super friendly helpful staff. In the a.m.sweet surprise! Breakfast is delicious. Do choose this small B&B when in Cartagena. The only thing it is a bit far from the city center.
