We really enjoyed our Easter 2025 weekend in Cartagena. The hotel was spot on. I.m happy we selected this Hotel. Besides service and dining options what really intrigued me was the architecture of building a modern hotel within the walls of a monastery from 1621. Excellent example of creating a new experience with respect to the old History of the walled city of Cartagena.

This is a unique hotel in Cartagena centro historico. Very different, well maintained and the breakfast was fantastic. The service was first class. I bit downside is that when you opened the balcony doors the floor would get really humid and slipery so this is dangerous.
