Top La Merced Square Hotel Reviews

Charleston Santa Teresa Cartagena

8/10 Good

"This hotel has a fantastic location, but that's about where the excellence ends. The pictures don't quite match reality, and while the staff is friendly, check-in and check-out were a bit rocky with unexpected charges popping up. All in all, it's a pricey hotel that doesn't quite live up to its cost"

Bondo Hometel

10/10 Excellent

"Overall, this was my second stay at Bondo and I really like the hotel and the rooftop view is spectacular. The only issue was that the guest policy was not readily apparent until we arrived. They need to make this more upfront."

Casa Noa Colonial Rooms

8/10 Good

"The room was perfect for a quick stay. Clean bed, nice location, the shower was odd cause it would not drain super fast (and that’s not how they are in the old city normally) so if you showered for longer than 5 mins it would flood the bathroom… but it’s okay. It was a nice stop for one night and we would do it again for a quick stay for sure."

Hotel Casa La Factoria by Faranda Boutique, a member of Radisson Individuals

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was amazing, very helpful. I found the bar a restaurant expensive ."

Osh Hotel Cartagena

10/10 Excellent

"El desayuno a la carta es excelente, tiene platos deliciosos. Me encantaron los robots que llevan la comida. El hotel en general es muy bonito y moderno, el personal muy amable, gracias especialmente a María Victoria por su valiosa ayuda. Lo que sí es importante mencionar es que el hotel no está dentro de la ciudad amurallada."

Soy Local Centro Historico

8/10 Good

"Excelente servicio, limpieza y ubicacion."

OZ Hotel Collection

"Muy bueno todo, el personal se portó excelente. El restaurante muy bueno y las habitaciones en excelente estado, íbamos para celebrar el cumpleaños de mi madre y quedamos encantados. Sin duda volveríamos"

Four Seasons Hotel & Residences Cartagena

10/10 Excellent

"La experiencia fue excepcional, desde la llegada hasta que nos tocó la salida. El hotel esta muy bien ubicado en la zona colonial dentro de la muralla. Su arquitectura es hermosa. Una combinación de edificios restaurados coloniales con edificios nuevos bien integrados. La vegetación crea un ambiente agradable. El servicio fue de primera, todos muy atentos. El restaurante para cenar riquísimo, el desayuno extenso y muy bueno. El cuarto super cómodo y el baño con una excelente distribución. El area de las piscinas esta chevere con vistas a la ciudad. Usamos el gimnasio y estaba súper equipado para hacer una rutina completa. Es un hotel que repetiría si volvemos a Cartagena."

Hyatt Regency Cartagena

10/10 Excellent

"Hyatt hotel was very clean and all the staff were very welcome"
