We absolutely loved this place! The design was beautiful, the staff was extremely friendly and accommodating, the bed was wonderfully comfortable, and the rooms were sophisticated and stylish. The vibe is refined relaxation which was perfect after days out. A very nice hot breakfast is included in the relaxing "main room" with a gorgeous area for hosting a big dinner. Inviting rooftop and sitting nooks throughout the property. Really a quiet gem in the Old Town. Highly recommend and we will be back.
I’m an elite member with one of the top hotel chains and generally get top tier service - this hotel, as a regular guest blows the service I’ve got elsewhere out of the water. A true boutique hotel experience. First note. When you do find the correct address, use the large door knocker to be key in. From there you are truly made to feel special. You’re lead to a climate co trolled sitting area where you check in experience happens behind the scenes while you are given a welcome drink. By time you’ve finished that drink you are taken to your assigned room with a key and well taken care of. Evening turn down service each evening. Amazing clean and beautiful room. It’s a real oasis in the historic center of Cartagena — and I’ve spent a lot of time here over the years and wish I’d known about this sooner. On a practical note. Great hot water, lovely comfortable bed, strong reliable wifi…
The hotel is just perfect, the service impeccable and there is a 5 stars attention to every details, yet feeling like home The staff is super nice and supportive in helping you in everything. It’s definitely the best place we stayed in Colombia
This was hands-down our favorite hotel in Colombia. The accommodations were incredibly atmospheric and very tastefully decorated. Complimentary breakfast is served in a great room overlooking the street, and was delicious. The staff were incredibly warm and friendly, and the concierge proactively gave us excellent advice on restaurants, and helped us book a boat tour. We regrettably never had time to use the hot tub on the roof, but we did enjoy the view of the city skyline. Overall, an amazing experience.
Casa Don Sancho was beautiful, calm, and overall enhanced our stay in Cartegena. The room was clean and the AC was strong. The shower had great pressure. The food is great (I recommend the pina colada - it’s fresh, delicious, and HUGE!). The staff is friendly, respectful, recommended places to eat, and called us a cab when we headed out to the airport. The plants in the courtyard are lucious and only add to the magic of this stay. The pool in the courtyard was clean and the jacuzzi on the roof was clean and had great views of the city and even a view of the ocean. The location is on a quiet street near near the theatre and you’re steps away from the city walls. We easily walked around the old town from here. If you’re beat from the sun or walking around, I’d recommend the food here or walking over to the Epoca Espresso Bar - the La Artilleria location, because it’s less crowded, prettier inside, great coffee, brunch, and snacks, and like a 7 min walk away.…
Wow! What a beautiful hotel. We loved this place, perfectly located in the old walled city, felt a little like the Riads of Marrakesh. It’s been so well designed and furnished. And so quiet. The rooftop is lovely with a jacuzzi and a few places to relax and read. The lady who met us on arrival spent ages talking about the city, her recommendations and all annotated on a top quality map! The bedroom lovely, beautiful bed linen, huge bed! And fab shower. Breakfast was fine; fresh fruit, lovely passion fruit juice, basket of bread/pastries...but cooked options less good, my poached eggs were solid and avocado off, the better option was ‘Peasant eggs’ which my husband had. But forget breakfast, this place is stunning and I highly recommend.
Two nights stay only, but everything was perfect. Design, location, care, recommendations all done with ease and perfection. No restaurant for dinner but the excellent recommendation for places near by well compensated for that. A travel experience from the glory time of travel long gone by
staff was very attentive, knowledgeable and professional, comfortable bed, room clean, amazing shower. Great location. Could have asked for a better place inside the walled city. Would definitely go back if in Cartagena again.
I stayed here with a friend for two nights. Wonderful, attentive service in a great location. The English-speaking staff was so helpful with directions and information. The food was amazing (my friend and I had dinner there one night) and the location in the walled city made it easy to see all the sights. Thoughtful touches (cookies and a note upon arrival to the room) and a chocolate and a bottle of water left in the afternoons. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay!
Thus beautiful hotel is one of the best I have ever stayed in. Upon entering a very gracious hist gave us a cool wash cloth to cool us off, then we were offered a drink. Instead of a reception desk we were taken to a lovely living room where we were checked in. The room is beautiful, great ac. Nice bathroom although the light could be a bit brighter for makeup application. The bed us king size with lots if comfy pillows. Rooms are around lovely courtyard. There us a lovely rooftop deck with comfy couches and a jacuzzi. Breakfast was wonderful with fresh fruit, oj, fresh breads and choice of eggs or pancakes. Everything was delicious. Another thing I liked was that it us on a quiet, safe block but only a few short blocks from restaurants, bars, etc. I look forward to staying here again. Everyone from the staff was so nice, friendly and helpful. I look forward to my next stay in this wonderful hotel!…
