Hotel Boutique Casa del Coliseo

What a little gem of a boutique in the heart of Cartagena's old city! We stayed three nights at family-owned and run Casa del Coliseo in a suite with balconies looking out over Calle del Porvenir. Service was impeccable, whether on arrival, at breakfast or at the pool later in the day where it was nice to cool off after a day of exploring the sights in Centro and Getsemani. The hotel also arranged a massage for my wife in our room and pickup and drop-off at the airport. The room was huge, with dark wood beamed high ceiling, king-sized bed and one of the largest showers I have ever seen with double rain shower heads. Prices were modest. I highly recommend.

I lived staying at the hotel. The staf did everything possible to make our stay perfect!

Beautifully restored hacienda with attentive, gracious service. Conveniently located in the old town of Cartegena. Lovely breakfast room with good breakfast made to order. Would definitely return.

The hotel is completely remodeled with a high-end decorator feel. The communal living areas such as breakfast room and living room are beautiful, spacious and airy. The pool area is small, but neat. We stayed in a regular queen room, 101, to be precise, because it was the only room left when we booked. Redecorated and clean but a bit small with a nice bathroom. Since it was just one floor off street level, it was somewhat noisy at night until we not only closed the windows but also the shutters which reduced the noise level. I would suggest a room further to the back of hotel for quieter stay. Staff went beyond the norm to be courteous, helpful and informative. breakfast included and very nicely prepared and served. I would return and recommend to friends.

the highest level of service and comfort and location that you could go for in Cartagena the hotel and staff were faultless and kind beyond words other hotels worldwide need to wake up and see what the newer emerging countries are offering in terms of service level and comfort Cartagena 10 out of 10 New York 1/10 if youre lucky

Terribly over priced and over promised amenities. Staff were pleasant but didn’t know how to deal with all the problems they have. 1) pool was closed the entire week and there are other reviews of it being closed over the last year but they’re still charging prices like they have a working pool 2) room said 2 beds but the beds were small twins and less than 150 sq ft to move around for adults. 3) the bathroom ceiling was shorter than 5 ft so only tiny humans or children would work in this room. 4) there was no windows to outside so no daylight ever 5) tons or construction right outside the building and they hammer all day and all night. They just need to properly represent what the hotel actually is/offers.

The hotel is ok, but getting to the room was very incumbent. It was located in the first floor, but we had to go up 2 levels and go down again. No elevator. The hotel does not have restaurant and no bar. They charge extra por the partner, 250,000 COP/night and treat you like you would have been picked up in a bar and brought as a 1 night stand to the hotel....

Hotel was great. Check in was poor - room wasn’t ready for an hour and a half after the check in time. Options of wines was really shocking. Hotel was beautiful, room fantastic and breakfast delicious.

Excellent location and an excellent hotel. Great pool, good breakfast, amenities are great.

Beautiful colonial style boutique hotel in the heart of the action in Cartagena. Everything was superb about this hotel and we will definitely stay here again.
