This hotel is very interesting, comfortable, and unique. The room I was in (#6) had a British theme - each room is different. There was a very high, wood, cathedral ceiling, large ceramic tile, one window, a skylight above the shower, and a small porthole window in the bathroom. The bed was comfortable, the room was spacious, and the AC... More

We had read about many of the properties in Cartagena before booking here. We decided that we wanted to be inside the walled city so that we could walk around and not rely on taxis. (We had just come from Bogota and were tired of being driven around.) Plus, we didn't want the big hotel experience that you can have... More

My only complaint is that we only stayed one night. This is a great find and a great value in Old Town (our room cost about US$186/night in May). We had the best rest of our vacation on their comfortable mattress, sheets and pillows. Despite being in Old Town, it was quiet on a Saturday night and we didn’t hear... More

My lady and I booked this hotel after searching for the perfect romantic getaway in the old city. With only 8 rooms there was really no bothersome noise and the street had little traffic. The room was large, comfortable, gorgeously furnished, and very romantic. The staff were unobtrusive in their presence and the morning breakfasts were delicious. The pool is... More

We found the Alfiz hotel on Trip Advisor and stayed for 5 nights, together with some friends of ours. We loved every minute of our stay at the hotel. The hotel is exactly as the pictures look. The rooms are spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. The linen and toweling are high quality and immaculately clean. The breakfasts were fresh, healthy... More

We used Trip Advisor to review several options for our recent trip to Cartagena. The staff were very welcoming and friendly from the moment we arrived until we departed. From time to time we had questions regarding things to do, services, or simply directions and we were always given the time for complete explanations and responses. Our room was very... More

Alfiz was on our short list of hotels for Cartagena, and since we had time, we decided to check out the rooms before committing. We were disappointed to find that the rooms were nothing like the photos we had found online. The one we saw was dark and dank, with poor finishing. We were also quoted a higher price than... More

This was a wonderful find through trip advisor. It is in the heart of the old city. We were welcomed by the staff warmly. They were helpful, courteous and available. The rooms are different but we had a great room on the ground floor. Breakfast was good and fresh. You could easily spend days here while you explore Cartagena.

This is really a boutique hotel and has an authentic feel of being in another place - very quaint and in a great location to see all the attractions (although inside the walled city is very small - you can walk around the whole place in 15 mins). It isn't fancy, but clean and well kept. The staff was very... More
