"I stayed at this hotel in September 2025 and we were completely satisfied with the experience. The following lists the positives for this place:
1. Location was excellent, very easy to walk to anything in the old city and surroundings. The street was not a main tourist street without much traffic, so the nights were quiet.
2. Room (really an apartment) was spacious with full kitchen (stove and refrigerator), washer/dryer combo, and cookware/eatingware, and toiletries.
3. Front desk staff was very cordial and helpful.
4. Good selections of hot breakfasts which were made fresh and delivered to the room at the requested time.
5. Housekeeping was excellent.
6. Entire property was in good condition
I can recommend this hotel without any reservations. "
"The ocean view suite was amazing. Beautiful views from every room. The staff was very helpful. Access to the lounge on the 15th floor with free breakfast was nice to have also. "
"I had a great stay at the Hilton Cartagena! The location was absolutely perfect. Just a short, super cheap Uber ride to the Walled City, which made exploring the historic center incredibly easy and affordable.
The hotel itself is right on the beach, so it was great having the ocean just steps away. The beach was clean and relaxing, and the pool area was a big highlight. Spacious, well kept, and perfect for unwinding.
The rooms were cool and comfortable with great air conditioning, a must in Cartagena, and everything I needed for a relaxing stay.
All in all, the Hilton Cartagena was a solid choice for both relaxation and easy access to everything the city has to offer."
"This was one of the best hotel experiences I’ve had. Everyone at the hotel was super friendly and helpful always with a smile. We were celebrating a birthday and they had a small gesture waiting for us in the room. 10/10 recommend! "
