Hotel staff were very nice and location was great. The room itself was comfortable, however the bathroom was pretty small. We also didn’t have any hot water during our 4 night stay so that was unpleasant. The breakfast was also not great - the most edible options were the eggs that they can make any style and the fruit assortment (luckily there are plenty of cafes nearby). The staff were very helpful and friendly - they booked any taxis that we needed and let us know the price the taxis will charge. Overall, would have enjoyed the stay more with hot water and highlight of the stay is definitely the location / friendly staff.

My stay at Casa La Mantilla was great. The hotel itself is inside the city wall within walkable distance to food and entertainment. I felt safe at all time. It’s perfect for romantic or solo travel. The staff is very hospitable, which made my stay even better. I did have a mishap with no hot water the first day, however management had a quick resolution and move me to a different room. If you have knee issues, you may problems getting to and from room since no elevator. The breakfast was ok. Altogether, I enjoyed my stay and will be back if I ever decide to visit the city again.

Beautiful hotel but read the fine print!!

This boutique hotel was exactly what we were looking for. It's located in the old city, right in the midst of fantastic restaurants, music venues, coffee shops, museums, and more. The small hotel boasts a "Moorish" design with white plaster walls and stunning custom decor, a rarity in North American hotels. The staff were all very friendly and helpful in arranging tours, recommending restaurants, coffee shops, museums, and more. The front desk personnel spoke very clear English, which was always helpful. However, I must mention one issue that greatly upset us during our stay. We met up with a friend of a friend, a tour guide in Cartagena, who joined us at the hotel for a drink and to share some photos of our trip to Hungary. Upon leaving for dinner with said friend, the front desk agent (just doing his job) informed us of a $300,000 pesos charge (about $100) for having an unregistered guest in our room. The hotel was adamant about this charge, even though it was mentioned in our guest information, all in Spanish, with no explicit explanation of this peculiar policy. Needless to say, we were not happy about this unexpected charge. It's unfortunate that such cash grabs are commonplace for certain hotels in Colombia, and it significantly tainted our overall experience.

Nice breakfast buffet, helpful staff. Our room was on the the third floor, no elevator. Very steep winding stairs difficult for older travelers to go up and down with luggage etc. Ask for a lower level room if you can.

Overall, we had a great experience at this hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and well kept. Only complaint would be the room we stayed in was a little tight and little to no closet space. But we would definitely visit again.

Overall, a great property I like the fact that they’re security most hotels have this and one big bonus. Is that literally on the right of the building there’s a shop where you can buy snacks drinks, alcohol, and all other stuff without needing to go to one of those shopping centers, so that’s a definite plus The thing I didn’t like though is that my room didn’t have a table that I could get any work. I was basically stuck on my bed or had to sit on this little chair that really wasn’t comfortable. I had to book a different hotel. My initial flight was one month out. I only booked three days initially at this hotel just the kind of gazed the vibe if I liked it, I was going to extend it or if I didn’t like it I was gonna just find a different hotel unfortunately I didn’t like the fact that it was literally no no table and chair for me to sit down on so you know unless I’m walking outside or engaging in activities I don’t I don’t want to just I just want to be able to do more than sleep in my hotel apart from that overall great atmosphere overall you know they check security if you invite someone over they’re gonna get their ID one thing that they didn’t tell me the way that you can’t you can’t invite unknown guest over without paying 300,000 pesos. I had to push back a little bit on that but eventually they budged because it was the same person even though it’s the same price for one or two guests you have to let them know where they’re gonna try to squeeze an extra 300,000 pe
