    • Good Location Staff is friendly upstairs pool area is nice
    • Location was excellent, and the staff was so wonderful, we had clean rooms, and all advertised services were as advertised. We recommend the "all inclusive" hotel to anyone seeking a great place to spend a few days or week.
    • Great location, however, for tourism, it would be best to have at least one of two English speakers around to accommodate tourists who do not

    Cons -

    • The beds were very uncomfortable. Didn't get any sleep due to loud construction going on inside the hotel at night. Furniture is very old and outdated. Pictures are definitely deceiving.
    • Beach vendors, like busy bees.
    • Yes; whoever cleaned my room on Saturday used a couple of bathe items that I brought and added water to make it appeared that nothing happened. It was extremely upsetting, although it was reported to the staff, the step taken was very offensive.

    breakfast, room and location very good

    more elevators, one was out of order

    4DianaPosted on: 2-19-2025

    Pretty close to old city and breakfast was decent

    Very outdated hotel that needs some love and care. Furniture is broken, AC is super loud and barely functions. At check in the staff refused to give us beach towels for our time at the pool while the room wasn’t ready.

    The hotel is located across from the beach and is approximately a 15 minute taxi drive from the airport which costs between $6 - $10 depending on the taxi driver. The hotel was very clean, and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Our room on the 8th floor had everything we needed, and the shower had very hot water. There was also a hairdryer and hair straighteners. The pool on the roof was great. Breakfast was good, with different options, but I feel the lunch and dinner options were very limited and were typically Colombian food. Hamburgers and hotdogs were available at the pool snack during certain times of the day, but I found the food was generally not hot, just luke warm. The food in the Lucia restaurant was good and the service was excellent. The staff were very attentive and nice. The wifi was a bit sporadic one day and I wasn`t able to check in for my flight until much later but in general it was good. Overall, we had a good time at the hotel.

    The only thing that I think could be improved are the food options for lunch and dinner. I really think more are needed as it generally consisted of soup, salad, 2 types of meat, rice and vegetables. It`s not very adventurous

    The staff was so kind, food was great, location was perfect

    Nothing! It was awesome

    4PemphoPosted on: 12-9-2024

    It is close to the beach and cheap

    The pictures and the advertisement of the place is misleading. The pool is tiny and they are militant. They don’t let you have guests, they put me in a room with no view despite claiming in was an ocean view. I had walls outside my window. At Checkout, they don’t let you leave till they send someone to physically inspect your room and count their inventory. They literally have the guard at the door physically detain you. Btw they inspected and found all their shit, but still the experience was horrible. It felt like a prison, not a hotel

    The breakfast buffet style was great. the location is right in front of the beach.

    AC did not work well in the first room on the 13th floor. we got switch to another room and i cant say it was any better. the hallways are hot . the AC unit could use an improvement.

    First of all the location is fantastic you just have to walk a few steps and there you are at the beach ⛱️. Allison Michelle the front desk girl went above and beyond giving us the best tips and service. We arrived really early and Allison Michelle took care of our lounge and gave us beach towels to go right away to enjoy the beach. The Hotel has a lot of amenities such as a gym, great pool located on the 18 floor with an amazing snack where Sergio the bar tender made us feel like home. The restaurant has a fantastic selection of different kinds of food with the amazing service from the staffing.I definitely recommend it to go and have a blast in Cartagena Plaza Hotel. The only risk is falling in love with it.

    We liked everything - staff, facilities, food etc.! Staff was very friendly! Nothing to complaint about. Smart google assistant in the room, possibility to dance every day etc. What not to like?

    7roxPosted on: 5-23-2024

    the location was good.

    the beach was not usable due to the excessively aggressive people selling things and massages. also the buffet had meat, eggs and cheese in everything but the fruit. nothing for vegetarians, vegans and very little for those who do not eat pork, beef or dairy. did not even have plant based milk for coffee or cereal.

    1AndreyPosted on: 5-21-2024

    Well, breakfast was ok.

    Gosh, it’s a really run-down hotel. The AC in my room did not work. A maintenance guy brought a fan. I slept really bad the only night I stayed at the property.

    6AlejandroPosted on: 2-21-2024

    breakfast was basic but edible, hotel was more of a local vibe

    hotel needs a lil remodeling but not too bad

    8VladimirPosted on: 1-13-2024

    Location is ideal for beach goers. The breakfast has lots to offer. The pool is actually a fun place with games held by the hotel to win prizes. Room was large in size. Staff are friendly. Nice place to stay. Location to delicious restaurants are nearby.

    7AlessandroPosted on: 1-10-2024

    Staff was really friendly and location was pretty good. Food selection on the buffet was good but repetitive

    Pool was very small, All inclusive was very limited specially with alcohol. Next time i will probably not choose the all inclusive as we were hardly there for lunch

    7AmparoPosted on: 1-6-2024

    Bed was good. Breakfast was good when you could fine a table.

    Coffee. Would like to have a way to save a table. One waste a lot of time to find a spot. People just disregard your spot and sit. I was getting or trying to get some fruit and a grandma and a kid took my table. Even though i had left my key there. If the restaurant has a way to improve it will be great. The last thing one wanted is to either no having a proper meal and / or not allowed to have a table if going solo.

    4PaulPosted on: 1-5-2024

    Room was ok

    Bar was terrible pool wasn't good as soon as you walked outside you was harassed by beach people everyday and every time. No bar at the hotel the 1 by the pool was awful
