"Did not have a chance to try breakfast, as I left very early. Rooms are basic and clean. AC was weak in our room and took time to cool room. No AC in common areas. The staff was OK, not particularly friendly. Not mean or uncaring, just OK. You have to call them if you need to go out so they open the electric lock. I got the sense they felt I was bothering them every time I had to go outside or come in. The "gym" area is a joke, and so is the rundown hammock area in the back. Would I stay...

"The host was incredibly kind and hospitable. She made sure that we had everything that we needed to feel comfortable. We were also given some pretty great recommendations for activities. We were very happy that we listened to the suggestions because we had a ball! Breakfast was lovely and fresh every morning. They are very punctual and clean in the house, so don’t be surprised when breakfast is cleaned up promptly as the end time hits. The space was exactly as advertised and filled with lots of...

"For some unknown reason this place was already rated "excellent" whereas there was no previous reviews. So I felt a little bit manipulated as this place without being bad was way overrated. Although the place is generally clean, it nis not maintained properly. Some stuffs need some fixing. The room I stayed in for almost 10 days had suffered water leakage in the wall which resulted in traces on the wall which has not been redone or even painted. The mattress is definitely not comfortable &...

La ubicación super estratégica, muy bien ubicado. Las habitaciones super cómodas y con aire acondicionado y baño privado. Se merecen más reconocimiento. Desayuno super rico.

"I booked and paid on expedia, upon arrival the clerk tried to say i had not paid, then he tried to charge us more saying i had not paid the full price. I had to show him my records before he finally decided i had paid...it felt like a scam, he did apologize but it still felt like a deliberate act. Additionally while in the room, staff members would periodically enter the room and take pictures, i founf this to be disturbing. "

InterContinental Cartagena De Indias by IHG

InterContinental Cartagena De Indias by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"We had an amazing stay at the InterContinental Cartagena and loved every minute of it. The hotel is perfectly located right on the beach, making it easy to relax and enjoy the ocean, and it’s also very walkable. Just across the street there are tons of shopping options for souvenirs and clothing, along with a wide variety of restaurants to choose from. The infinity pool was one of our favorite parts of the hotel—so refreshing and absolutely gorgeous with its ocean views. It was the perfect place to unwind. Room service was fantastic, and housekeeping consistently kept our room clean, fresh, and comfortable throughout our stay. We highly recommend the InterContinental Cartagena. It exceeded our expectations, and we can’t wait to come back! We even stayed an extra day!"
