The hotel has an excellent location and a premium service. The room was clean and the has a balcony where I can drink my cup of coffee with an awesome view of the tower church.
Property is great for family vacations. If one is scheduling to go party - this is not the place you want to stay. Visitors are not ethically allowed.

Staff is great,but the hotel needs alot of work,it a bit rundown and the room are very small,The AC i think it been there since they open lol,it was just ok. Breakfast was fine,very little to choose from,but they did make your eggs for you. The service staff was GREAT all of them,very nice
Service was great. However the condition of the hotel room was appalling: windows were impossible to close, TV was constantly frozen, and overall felt very run-down...

This property is at center of where you want to walk. The issue with this property is that the rooms are small and the ac don’t cool and Cartagena is super hot ! Besides that is good. The employees are humble and super attentive and are very helpful if you need help going around.

Great website not so great reality. The property is need of repairs. They were doing this during my visit. Lots of wood rot and mold. Walls were thin as I could hear neighbors talking next door late into the night.
The staff was nice and helpful. Great being in the old town, but also too much hawking for my liking. As soon as you left the lobby there was someone yelling at you and trying to get something from you.
The expression “Mi Casa Es Su Casa” lives on at the Delirio which deserves 10 stars. My wife and I stayed at 2 Hotels in Cartagena during this 1-week trip, the first was a global brand and the other was the Delirio. From the moment we booked to the moment we left, the Delirio’s only concern was to offer up the best hospitality possible, way beyond what the other hotel offered. From management to front desk, to kitchen, to housekeeping, all wanted to contribute to our best experience. They insisted on changing our room, which was perfectly fine, but because they ‘sensed’ we preferred a different layout. The fresh cooked breakfast was superb, they even accommodated our guests who came by offering them coffee and breakfast. Thank you all for the wonderful stay - our premier choice in Cartagena.
Great location but needs updating. Staff was very friendly but most don’t speak English, for an international hotel! Room was clean but not enough space for luggage and not enough shelvings for any personal items. Bathroom needed upgrades. Sink outdated with zero area/ shelving to put anything. Window to street are not only not sound proof but it feels like they’re left open as you hear everything outside from cars and pedestrians (bring your earplugs).
Breakfast was good with great service except our last day, both service and food was bad. We won’t stay here again.

Ok but could be better
This could be a super boutique hotel & is in an excellent location but it's a little tired and is in need of some TLC.
The windows in the room were in a poor state, the bathroom window was missing it's handle so was always open, the bedroom window had a handle but was very difficult to close because the window frame was bent.. not a major problem in terms of safety given we were on the 5th floor but does mean the air-con never really works properly.
The electronic keys for the bedroom sometimes took many attempts to unlock the door & despite changing the keys 3 times things never really improved.
Breakfast was good, the pancakes were soft and fluffy and the arepa stuffed with egg was good too. It was just a little unusual that despite being told breakfast ran until 10, that we essentially found the breakfast area closed at 9:30... they were good enough to reopen and make some more of the delicious pancakes though!
Everything about this property was outstanding. Excellent staff and breakfast to order. The location is perfectly situated close to all major attractions and restaurants. We hope to visit again soon.
