O único ponto negativo era que não havia cortina no quarto, o que deixava muito claro durante a noite. Quarto espaçoso e muito aconchegante! ##### Fabiana ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 11 Jun 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Not so great Bad to say the least: • Bugs found in some breakfast items. • No 'Do not disturb' signs. • No way of contacting the front desk from the phone in the room. • no hot water/tea/coffee in room • loud at night. Either fireworks or a loud festival. Couldn't sleep at all. • no hot water for sink or shower. Only lukewarm water. • no complimentary water bottles. • no new body towels or washcloths given. Only new floor towels daily. • staff not helpful with issues • internet connection was bad. Hardly worked. Check in is at 3pm, yet my reservation said I could check in at 1pm. Also, they weren't flexible about late check-out. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 15 Apr 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Convenient Hotel The room was spacious and had plenty of space for us to hang and store our clothing.

Ótimo custo benefício... ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Victoria, Atlanta, GA 7 Aug 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great staff and beautiful location The Badillo Zen is small and charming. I would say that the staff were really great and went above and beyond to assist us. The room was clean, however there wasn't a closet, nor hooks to hang anything up. That would make a nice touch. The pool also could be a bit cleaner, though I didn't want to swim in front of the lobby desk and the main walkway path. There is a great rooftop patio and breakfast is great. Overall nice hotel and I would recommend. ##### Victoria ### 8/10 Good #### Javier, Naucalpan, Estado de México, México 1 Aug 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hotel muy bien ubicado y cómodo El hotel se encuentra en una zona ideal de la ciudad amurallada y a unos cuantos metros de la plaza de San Diego. El hotel es cómodo y el personal es muy agradable. ##### Javier ### 6/10 Okay #### Melanie, Chicago, IL 29 Jul 2015 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Room for improvement Mixed feelings about this hotel - great location in the walled city and definitely has potential, but needs improvement before I would recommend the place. Our stay started off with an email the day before arrival saying the hotel was cancelling our reservation because they were overbooked! Hotels.com managed to fix this for us, but of course we were put in the worst room possible when we got there. If you are put in a room on the first floor, leave immediately. The room was tiny, windowless, depressing, old, and overall awful. We were able to negotiate a better room for the next two nights, which was much bigger, had a balcony, and was overall more acceptable. The hotel overall though is very old feeling, has run down bathrooms, old looking furniture, etc. Maybe that's just what you get in the walled city unless you're paying a fortune, but overall I would not recommend this hotel as I think you can do better for the same price. Also, the "pool" is not a pool at all - literally a fountain that is basically in the reception area that wouldn't fit more than your feet. Even if you wanted to put your feet in, it's right next to the front desk so it's far too awkward to use. ##### Melanie ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 24 Jul 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Nice and Cozy place! Casa Badillo Zen is a cozy little bed and breakfast in the middle of the very romantic and nice Cartagena Centro Historico. Hotel is very clean and with very nice ambiance. Staff was courteous and willing to solve any situation. Rooms are very clean and the bedding was excellent. Rooms are not very spacious and lack a closet, so hanging clothes maybe a problem. Breakfast was hot and table served. Loading and Unloading your luggage may be an issue as the Hotel entrance is right on the very narrow street and the Hotel has no parking. If you bring your own car be ready to find a parking lot, there's one very close to the Hotel that is by the University of Cartagena. ##### Verified traveller ### 4/10 Poor #### ignacio, Claremont 17 Jul 2015 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### one night in Cartagena The pictures are pretty but the hotel needs a lot of maintenence. AC worked well. Pool is small but it is basically a fountain for the lobby ##### ignacio ### 10/10 Excellent #### Guillermo, New York 10 Jul 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great hotel Loved the stay would definitely stay again.. ##### Guillermo ### 2/10 Terrible #### Barbara, Seattle 6 Jul 2015 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not a Zen experience. Do not stay at this hotel. At check out the hotel charged much more than the agreed to price. The hotel is filthy, the beds are full of sand, the breakfast is borderline rancid and the day staff is nasty, rude and unhelpful (after 30 years of traveling, some of the worst hotel staff I have experienced). The one exception is the night staff man, Antonio, who is very sweet. He should be promoted and everyone else fired. It is ironic that this hotel is called Badillo Zen. It is as far away from a Zen experience that you can have. So many other better choices in Cartagena. ##### Barbara ### 6/10 Okay #### Beatriz, México 2 Jul 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### hotel sencillo dentro de una muralla. El hotel es lindo pero no tuvimos suerte pues el comedor estaba en remodelación y la electricidad de la calle y el hotel falló 2 días, nos quedamos sin aire acondicionado, sin T.V. etc. Nos movieron a otro hotel el último día y se portaron muy bien. ##### Beatriz ### 8/10 Good #### Oscar, Astoria/NY 11 Jun 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Zen In Great neighborhood, lots of restaurants/bars within walking distance of the hotel. Overall the hotel was great; however, I was not impress with the breakfast service... I've stayed at the sister hotel Badillo Galeria, which has a buffet style breakfast bar... Perhaps something management should integrate at Badillo Zen. Also the outdoor rooftop terrace has great potential, but it was never illuminated at night, such a great outdoor space to enjoy the moon and the stars in enchanting Cartagena De Indias ##### Oscar ### 8/10 Good #### Jorge L, Barranquilla 26 May 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Buena opción en Cartagena Bien, exactamente lo que estaba buscando. Además de la zona en la que esta, es muy buena. Hay varios buenos restaurantes cercanos. ##### Jorge L ### 6/10 Okay #### Ixchel, Ciudad de Mexico 24 May 2015 Liked: Staff & service #### Estancia Un hotel céntrico, buen atención del personal. Las habitaciones sin ventanas, el baño sin aire acondicionado. No es spa. ##### Ixchel ### 6/10 Okay #### LUIS IGNACIO, Cali 14 May 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Bueno pero Falta Bien, solo deberían habilitar un espacio como closet, porque es muy incomodo tener que tener las cosas en la maleta y si hay una pieza adicional de equipaje o morral o algo, debe colocarse en el piso. ##### LUIS IGNACIO ### 6/10 Okay #### David Jose, Barranquilla 27 Feb 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Por mejorar Hotel, de acuerdo con el valor cobrado. Las personas que atienden son bien amables y serviciales. Nunca pude ver TV pues no supieron solventar problemas con el operador de TV. A la piscina solo le da el sol a medio dia. El Aire Acondicionado no era suficiente para una suite. ##### David Jose ### 8/10 Good #### Cindy, England 23 Feb 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hotel is well located near to bars and restaurants The staff were very friendly. The room was very clean and the comfortable bed had beautiful crisp linen. The bathroom was small but adequate with hot water and nice white towels. Our room had a small balcony with flowers which was a nice surprise. There is a plunge pool on the ground floor. Breakfast was good. I would only recommend that they smartened up the entrance hall/ breakfast/ kitchen area as it did not meet same standard as rest of hotel. However the most important thing was the room which was excellent value in an ideal location. We would definitely recommend. ##### Cindy ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 19 Feb 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### Ganz okey!;-) Das Personal war sehr hilfsbereit, jedoch hatten sie während unserem Aufenthalt Probleme mit dem Wasser. Dusche funktionierte dadurch nur beschränkt!:-( Lage ist super. Frühstück ganz okey! ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Family-Friendly Hotels in Exeter](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exeter-Hotels-Family-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d1185-tFamilyFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Aelia Luxury Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santorini-Hotels-Aelia-Luxury-Suites.h76224483.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Las Americas Torre del Mar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cartagena-Hotels-Hotel-Las-Americas-Torre-Del-Mar.h4469515.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Prague](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prague-Hotels-Hilton-Prague.h17986.Hotel-Information) > > [Avanti Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Hotels-Avanti-Hotel.h1099881.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Piccola Vela](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Desenzano-Del-Garda-Hotels-Hotel-Piccola-Vela.h2531447.Hotel-Information) > > [Peninsula Hotel Danang](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Da-Nang-Hotels-Peninsula-Hotel-Danang.h82966581.Hotel-Information) > > [The Red Lion](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newent-Hotels-The-Red-Lion.h38328894.Hotel-Information) > > [Self Catering Cottage, Crackington Haven, Bude, Cornwall, Peace awaits you.](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bude-Hotels-Self-Catering-Cottage.h21791814.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach Resorts & Hotels in Sumatra](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sumatra-Hotels-Beach-Hotels.0-0-d6049206-tBeachHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Avon Causeway Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-The-Avon-Causeway-Hotel-Inn.h3810087.Hotel-Information) > > [Naumi Hotel Dubai](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Hotels-DusitD2-Kenz-Hotel-Dubai.h16083123.Hotel-Information) > > [Selina Secret Garden Lisbon by IKIGAI Global Hospitality](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lisbon-District-Hotels-Selina-Secret-Garden-Lisbon.h33288979.Hotel-Information) > > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in Vietnam](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Vietnam-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d194-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Carvoeiro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carvoeiro-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d6023514-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Park Plaza Amsterdam Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amsterdam-Hotels-Park-Plaza-Amsterdam-Airport.h1696024.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Doha (DOH) to Auckland (AKL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/doh/akl/doha-to-auckland) > > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Le Mans (LME)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/lme/edinburgh-to-le-mans) > > [Flights from Jamaica (JFK) to Las Vegas (LAS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/jfk/las/new-york-to-las-vegas) > > [Flights from Jamaica (JFK) to Newark (EWR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/jfk/ewr/new-york-to-newark-liberty-intl-airport) ### Cars ### Activities ### General > [Visit Carry-le-Rouet](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carry-Le-Rouet.dx6023025) ---
