The main differentiating feature at this wonderful RC is the friendliness and attention to service by staff and management. Remembering small preferences and remembering names and likes for breakfast are a couple of examples. Of course and we’ll take care of it are ingrained into the staff. We’d go back in a heartbeat and strongly recommend to one and all.

In extensive global travels, I found the staff of this Casa Pestagua among the most gracious and accommodating I've met. I give Casa Pestagua my every recommendation. And on top of all of this, its location could not be more well-suited to Old City adventures, high-end shopping, and fine dining.

I travelled to Cartagena solo and stayed 3 nights. I was so delighted with the care and attention to my needs by the extraordinary staff that I barely left the property!! The staff was so delightful, thoughtful and attentive. Breakfast was an extraordinary experience and a perfect start to my day. My dinners were also lovely, and the chef was keen to accommodate my vegetarian requests. I booked a suite so that I would have an area to write during the day, I found the room spacious and very comfortable. And the BED! It was incredible to fall into each night. I highly recommend this hotel and had a beautiful experience.

They closed the property with no notice, and canceled a large event we had been planning for months after assuring us there would be no problems! It was a disaster. They need to lose their Relais Chateaux affiliation,

Casa Pestagua in Cartagena has become one of our favorite getaway spots. We enjoyed the people and service at this hotel so much, we went back 2 months later. Prior to arriving, I was in touch with concierge Leo. He booked, in advance, an incredible speed boat trip to Isle de Rosario Majagua where we did sporting activities. He also set up a reservation at “Top 10 bar” Alquimico, (dinner and rooftop). Once the staff at Alquimico knew we were from Casa Pestagua, they treated us like first class. Hotel Manager Katherine remembered us and was there “checking in” every step of the way to make sure our stay was going well. The food in the restaurant is top tier and maitre’d, Rene, professionally ensures that you get exactly what you want. They had not problem working around our gluten and dairy allergies. Hostess Juliana always greeted and sat us with a smile. David, Luis Felipe, Alvaro and Carol are the fun, personable wait staff who make meals very enjoyable. Bartender, Carlos, is always there to whip up one of his specialty drinks. Night concierge, Brando, knowledgeably directs you and makes reservations as needed. Doorman Luis and Carlos B made sure to carry all bags , open all doors and take all photos we wanted. The staff surprisingly came out and sang happy birthday to my girlfriend with balloons and cake. Love them all and can’t wait to go back . John D

5 stars! For everything! I literally cried when I had to say goodbye to this hotel. It is STUNNING! I have never felt so welcome and connected to a staff at a hotel before. My husband and I spent 7 nights at Casa Pestagua, and it still wasn't enough time. The atmosphere is relaxing and calm. The gourmet breakfast is beyond extraordinary, and the menu has so many choices. There wasn't anything I asked for that the staff didn't go above and beyond to help accommodate my requests. Definitely go to the spa at the sister hotel for a treatment and take the private boat to Acasi for the day. The pool is a paradise escape during the heat of the Cartagena afternoons. I would like to personally thank Louis, Carlos, Amanda, and Yeily for taking care of us and making us feel at home. Thank you so much to everyone else on staff, too. I will be returning to Cartagena, if only to relax and enjoy this hotel, it's superb service, and see the familiar and friendly faces of the Casa Pestagua team.
