We had a truly lovely stay at this hotel! From start to finish, everything was wonderful. The staff were incredibly attentive, welcoming and thoughtful, making us feel so special throughout our visit. It was my birthday during our stay, and the lovely surprise of having a birthday cake brought to me was such a beautiful and thoughtful gesture. It really made my day extra special!

We enjoyed every aspect of this hotel apart from one crucial thing. After disembarking a Silversea cruise, we checked in and a friend from the ship accompanied us to the hotel. The front desk would not accept a US driver’s licence as ID and refused to let him see our room for a brief moment. I was informed that only a passport would suffice. The following evening, we invited a friend from the US who was in the area to come to the hotel around 8.30pm before going to dinner. We warned her that she...

We had a lovely room with lots of space. Everyday the room was cleaned and smelled amazing. The staff were always friendly and helpful to us and we came back one day to a lovely note and a bottle of wine as a gift from the hotel to celebrate us being on our honeymoon. Lovely touch. We spent some time each day by the pool which had fresh towels there and would be a quiet and peaceful place to relax. The location was fantastic and would absolutely stay again.

Beautiful boutique hotel in the centre but surprisingly quiet. You can use the pool if the sister hotel casona del colegio which is bigger and have breakfast there if you like.

THE best hotel! I travelled solo to Cartagena, Colombia for the first time so was naturally nervous but couldn’t have had a better stay at OSH. This hotel is a dream and even better than the photos in person - how is it only 3 star?! Location is 10/10. Staff are super friendly and welcoming, rooms are clean and comfortable, the main pool and surroundings areas are gorgeous. Rooftop pool has a nice view and great views too from the rooftop bar.

A beautiful and calm oasis in the heart of the old city. The egg arepas were the perfect breakfast to start the day and the pool a lovely way to spend the morning.

Simply excellent. Sophia Hotel is fantastic hotel in the heart of the old town/centre. The rooftop pool and bar area has a lovely view and the food is good too. The music can be a little loud, but the staff are friendly and happily turned it down when we were the only couple on the roof enjoying the pool. Reception is excellent with any questions you may have and helped us immensely. The breakfast is also amazing! Thank you to the staff for such a great stay.

Staff were amazing, rooms were beautiful. And the rooftop with pool was such a nice space. Food was good, if not excellent (with the exception of the ceviche, which was excellent!)

Given this is a 5 star hotel. I would expect them to offer an area where tou can get showered if your room isn't ready. Apart from that everything was good

A stunning traditional colonial style property and our room was huge (we got the large one with the balcony). Everything was clean and the staff were amazing - always friendly and approachable and ready to help. They took great care of us even up to the last moment when we were leaving and ensured all our luggage was transported to the taxi without us lifting a finger. For me and my partner the stay was perfect. If you are looking for an American-style hotel stay and breakfast then it may not...

Beautiful hotel in walled part of the city, close to shops and restaurants. Staff and service were excellent. Would highly recommend this hotel if you like boutique hotels!
