The room was super clean, breakfast buffet had great options. ##### Amanda Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Courtney 4 Feb 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Amenities The hotel staff were kind and personable. The grounds were kept clean throughout my stay and despite being aged, the property is well-kept. Free buffet was bare minimum, just something to fill your belly. As an American who only speaks English, it was frustrating that the staff only speaks Spanish. I had to communicate with them via a translation app. The tv only played Spanish stations. The pamphlets in the room were all in Spanish. No one was there to explain which restaurants were open at certain times. Room service was not available at certain times. There was no one to offer information about excursions etc. The rooms were a little outdated, but clean and comfortable. The shower doesn’t have a full door, so the water just floods on the bathroom floor during your shower. The bed was comfortable enough. They charge you for the beverages and snacks in the room so use at your own risk. The hotel was close to the airport and the tourist attractions and that was a plus. Overall, I would not return to the hotel. I expected more from a Sonesta brand. ##### Courtney Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carolina 10 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing hotel !

Its proximity to the airport is a major bonus, but if you’re making Cartagena your destination, this area of town is really not the place to stay. There are much trendier and historic neighborhoods and there are other beaches that are prettier but overall for what it was the hotel had great staff, clean rooms and nice pools. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eric 22 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Awesome hotel !!
