Great breakfast, perfect location, near all touristic attractions in walking distance and by Uber.
Hot water was only warm.
Perfecte locatie, in een gezellige, levendige straat met restaurantjes en winkeltjes. Maar in het hotel was het juist heerlijk rustig. Perfecte combi. Het personeel was heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Het zwembad op het dak was heerlijk om even af te koelen in het warme cartagena. Goed ontbijt ook.
Nik
L'emplacement en plein coeur de Getsamini, les piscines en rooftop.
Le petit déjeuner est copieux mais les jus de fruits ne sont pas très bons. Les pancakes manquent de confiture ou de pâte à tartiner en accompagnement.Il n'y avait pas d'eau chaude.Fenêtres de la chambre qui donne sur un mur.
Perfect setting in the heart of Getsemani but rooms are quiet. Air conditioning worked very well and breakfast was simple but filling. Staff is very warm and pleasant.
Great location, staff is friendly and informative. They always gave great advice 9on places to eat and places to go.
Es super acogedor y su ubicación cerca del Centro de Convenciones donde fue mi Congreso, por eso lo escogí por segundo año consecutivo.
Elevador, pero no fue imprescindible.
Céntrica y se puede caminar en el centro
Need more light in the bathroom, also need a purified in the rooms
A quiet oasis in the middle of Getsemani. Our ground-floor room was large and surprisingly very quiet, given the central location. Beds were comfy, with high,-quality sheets. Staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was good.
The shower was only luke warm. Staff needs to do a better job of keeping the walls of the upper-deck jacuzzi clean - there were many bird droppings throughout our 4-day stay.
Wonderful location in Getsemani, in the midst of all the action but didn't feel that way once inside the door of the hotel. Staff that go the extra mile to ensure the stay os enjoyable. Pleasant rooftop amenities with views in all directions.
Not a thing.
Piscine et spa non fonctionnel et pas propre
El alojamiento está súper céntrico en la misma calle tienes de todo, el personal muy agradable y servicial, la habitación muy amplia y el desayuno espectacular
Lo único que no tenia luz natural pero por lo demás todo espectacular
Al desayuno muy rico y la atención del personal, la ubicación en Getsemani es la mejor
la limpieza de la habitación, fundas sucias con manchas de labial y percudidas y las toallas de cuerpo estaban supersucias, con manchas de maquillaje, la ducha tenia un problema y el agua fria no abria bien
Ubicación, personal
El tamaño de las habitaciones, demasiado pequeñas
A localização é das melhores. No centro de Getsemani, tudo perto, muitos restaurantes bons e bem próximo da cidade muralhada. Da para fazer tudo a pé. O hotel é bem confortável, silencioso, funcionários super atenciosos.
O hotel possui um jardim de inverno, muito bonito quando está sol, pegamos um dia de chuva aí o hall do café da manhã molha tudo. Nada demais mas daria para fazer um controle de não cair chuva no hall.
Ligging en mooie kamer
Gehorig en ontbijt was goed maar vrij eentonig of je moest bijbetalen voor een ander soort ontbijt.
Gentilezza dello staff, comodità dei letti.
Il pavimento della camera era sporco, lo abbiamo detto alla reception e l’indomani non è stato pulito a dovere. La colazione era molto basica. Camera con finestra su un muro, quindi non c’era luce naturale.
Piscine et chambre confortable
Compliqué de gérer la température de la douche qui était brûlante
Las camas eran muy cómodas y todo estaba muy limpio
Si hay alguien adentro haciendo ruido se escucha en todas las habitaciones , el desayuno es siempre el mismo y un poco aburrido
The interior of the hotel from the moment we walked in is truly spectacular. Very well located. We were on the third floor room 302. A large room with a huge shower room and a large bathroom. The lighting was incredible. Adjusting shower temperature a little challenging, but you’ll figure it out. Secure. Service excellent. It is indeed a small boutique hotel. Highly recommended.
Good casa, good service. Nice breakfast at rooftop pool/area. Note that their small rooms a small for 2 persons.
I really enjoyed my stay at Hotel Monaguillo de Getsemaní. The location is perfect, right in the center of Getsemaní and close to everything. The staff was very friendly and helpful at all times. My room was on the ground floor and was clean, comfortable, and surprisingly quiet — definitely quieter than staying inside the Walled City. I loved the rain shower, and breakfast was good. The rooftop area was a nice place to relax. I would definitely stay here again
A great location and comfy bed. Breakfast on the terrace was lovely, the breakfast team were super friendly and there was a good choice and more than enough food. The day time reception team were very friendly and welcoming.
Appreciate it was over NY which may have impacted this to a degree but there were several disappointing elements to our stay - to evening reception team member was not particularly welcoming or friendly - so things felt unwelcoming first off.. (such a contrast to the day time) - the place next door was playing loud music constantly like until 6am. And the door to the rooms are out in the open with nothing to shield you from the noise. Might have been further impacted by New Year. The room could do with a large thick blackout curtain as a minimum to help with noise but also light. - the pool wasn't cleaned very regularly and there were often a flock of very large birds resting by the side and swimming in the pool. Not sure how you stop that, but they left feathers etc in there. Didn't feel very clean.
Muy detallista y cuidado todo el hotel y la habitacion. Personal muy amable. Terraza con vistas y piscinas.
La cantidad y variedad del desayuno.
Lage
Keine Fenster, Mini Raum, sehr laut: sowohl von der Lage (muss man in Kauf nehmen) auch vom Hotelleben (Krach bis spät in die Nacht und ab früh morgens)
Sehr schönes und kleines Hotel im Zentrum. Alles zu Fuss schnell erreichbar. Der Zimmer war echt gross und Sauber. Die Terrasse mit Aussicht auf die Stadt war Top. Ganz grosses Dank an die netten Angestellte an der Rezeption. Vor allem Larry, ein richtig netter und freundlicher Mann.
Espectacular alojamiento ubicado en el barrio de Getsemaní. La habitación muy cómoda y las instalaciones muy bonitas con piscina y jacuzzi en la terraza
Excellent location! Close to Clock Tour and right in the heart of Getsemaní! Amazing customer service! Alfonzo, Maite and the rest of the staff are amazing! Will recommend 100%!
Las habitaciones muy amplias y la ubicación
Ubicación excelente
La habitación muy pequeña para el costo del alojamiento
Muy lindo hotel boutique. La ubicación es excelente! La habitación muy cómoda. La limpieza un 10 y muy buena atención.
La habitación tenía una ventana que daba a una pared. No tenía prácticamente, luz natural.
La ubicación y excelente el personal, súper atentos
Era muy acogedora, limpia y con mucha paz.
El personal perfecto,super amables. Tener el aire acondicionado en perfecto funcionamiento tambien es muy de agradecer.
I like the staff very friendly
Central location
Everything else
Excelente lugar y personal de lo mejor
Todo
This place feels like New Orleans French Quarter. A lot of history. Right in the middle of everything. Very friendly staff.
El hotel esta en una zona muy bien ubicada, cerca a todo los principales lugares turísticos de la ciudad, la atención del personal fue 10/10.
The staff was outstanding,especial mention to Juan Carlos and the breakfast crew.
Ubicación excelente. La decoración del hotel y limpieza muy cuidadas y el personal muy atento. Muy buen desayuno. De los mejores alojamientos en Colombia hasta ahora, muy agradable y recomendable.
La habitación doble estándar es algo pequeña y en la tercera planta había algo de ruido de la azotea del Havana, pero nada grave.
I loved that the hotel was located inside an authentic colonial-era home. I enjoyed the free breakfast and rooftop pools to cool down in the afternoons. The bed was comfortable, although my room was a bit too snug even for one person. The front door of the hotel must be opened by a staff member at all times, which is something to keep in mind. The hotel also does not allow guests.
The staff was incredibly helpful, the place was clean, and the walk was convenient! Loved it!
Mega lokalizacja
Trochę małe pokoje
Las frutas y el agua que dejan a disposición.
La energía que la quitan y no tiene planta. Da mucho calor por qué el aire no funciona.
El personal súper atentos a todo. La habitación es encantadora y muy cómoda. Está muy bien situado y el atardecer en la piscina ha sido muy bonito.
Todo muy muy bien , el.hotel muy lindo , super ubicado a todo.... Recomendadisimo
Ubicación perfecta. Estancias muy bonitas y terraza con piscina
Habitación un poco pequeña
Location is very convenient to the old town and lots of restaurants and activity.
There was no place to work in my room. WiFi was spotty.
We loved the location and the hotel. Super nice staff and the room was great.
The room we got wasn’t that huge but no biggie at all cuz we could hangout by the pool and enjoy the fresh breeze! I also love the rooftop where they serve breakfast. I love how the structure is built! Overall it was nice! We had a great time and it wasn’t that expensive as well! Staffs are really nice and approachable.
This place is amazing! The staff was so sweet and catered to everything we requested. The hotel smells really good and is very clean. It is close by to all the sights and great food options. The rooftop pool is nice too. I highly recommend staying here!
This hotel was a great choice for our first visit to Cartagena, Colombia. It's perfectly located in the heart of the Getsemani neighborhood, with tons of restaurants, shops, and nightlife within a short walking distance. The staff were all very welcoming and friendly. The hotel was very clean and the food was good. Checking in and out was smooth. The hotel has free Wi-Fi, a swimming pool and jacuzzi on the rooftop. Basically it looks like the pictures on their website. I would highly recommend this hotel and I'll be returning for my next trip to Colombia.
The hotel was wonderful. They had Everything together for me all way down to the name of the cab driver. The staff is phenomenon....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!¡!!!¡!!!!!!! A scale of 1 to 10 definitely 11. The area is in the heart of all the action....
Excellent location, breakfast to order. If we had chosen the other room, we would have been happier.
Room was ridiculously small and without any ventilation. The small pool was invaded by turkey vultures so that was unappetizing. The hot tub was not really hot.
My recent 5-night stay at Hotel Monaguillo de Getsemani in Cartagena was absolutely wonderful! The hotel itself is lovely, but what truly stood out was the incredible staff. Juan Carlos, in particular, went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. And let's not forget the breakfast – it was simply delicious and such a great way to start each day. It was within short distance to all the main attractions, super close to everything. I highly recommend Hotel Monaguillo de Getsemani for anyone visiting Cartagena!
A great stay thanks to the kind and attentive staff who made us feel truly welcome. I’m glad I chose this hotel for a week-long trip and would definitely recommend it. Pros: Strong A/C, accurate photos, central location, generous breakfast, great water pressure and hot water, comfy bed, and a peaceful, uncrowded vibe with only about 8 rooms. Cons: Some worn towels, a small pool with no shade, and occasional street noise (minimal in our room).
Excellent location. Staff are very helpful especially Keylen & Viviana. They also gave a couple of recommendations. Bed was comfy enough. Balcony view was also awesome. Thank you so much! I would definitely stay here again when I return. :)
The staff here was wonderful and the hotel and the room was wonderful. Probably one of the best places I’ve stayed at in Cartagena. Convent to plenty of places to eat and drink. Highly recommend this hotel and plan on booking it again as I travel here often
The location of this hotel is amazing. It is right in the center of everything. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Our room was always very clean and the breakfast was great.
The location, friendly staff,
Breakfast was very basic, rough towels
Perfect location for nightlife and fun! Very helpful staff with comfortable and clean rooms. The rooftop has a small plunge pool and a hot tub that is wonderful to relax in after a long day exploring the neighborhood. I would definitely recommend this wonderful hotel!
What a wonderful gem of a hotel! The service was fantastic. Our room was clean and cozy. Love the outdoor space and pool/jacuzzi. There is some noise at night (from Havana down the street) so I recommend ear plugs for sleeping in this neighborhood in general. Nothing terrible, just an fyi. We will be recommending this hotel to friends and family! And we will be back :)
Decent hotel but there are much better options for the money. We stayed in room 102 and it felt like a cave, absolutely no natural sunlight. The hotel is very clean and the staff is very nice. The pool is non existent. We stayed on the beach in a 5 star hotel for less money.
Stayed for 2 nights. Extremely friendly girls at the front desk, english speaking. Called me back about the left behind phone case. They really cared.
Great location, friendly staff. Breakfast was nice but limited options
Room was small. Little noisy at night from hotel neighbours
Great room, great location. A nice place to stay to explore Getsemaní. You will be near to everything you want to see: the plazas, murals, different restaurants and bars. Breakfast is included: I had coffee and juice, fruit, and then eggs one day and pancakes the next.
Super staff! All of them - the receptionists, the cook, the cleaners, and the other helpers. They were helpful and efficient handling numerous of our requests, and always cheerful. The hotel is close to the centre of the action in Getsemani. I booked one of the smaller rooms. The room was just the right size for us. Tips: 1) the English of the staff was from excellent to quite good, but occasionally, knowing at least basic Spanish or using a translator app or phrasebook can help. 2) If a mini fridge is important to you, check if the room you want has one. We didn't need one, and our room didn't have one.
Only one quibble: it had one night table, I asked for a second (which I insist there was room for), but they said it wasn't possible. (The only time we didn't get what we asked for.)
Nothing to not like about this lovely cosy hotel
There was nothing I didn’t like
Great and comfortable place staff was awesome
Kind and very supportive staff. Warm people at any time.
I liked that it was in the heart of Getsemaní , as a solo traveler , that was a plus for me . Location was convenient . Most restaurants and bars I wanted to visit were in very close proximity to the property. 24 hours front desk was a plus . The workers made my stay a good one. They were helpful, considerate and friendly /sociable . I actually enjoyed breakfast every morning even tho it was the same options . Everything was delicious .
The rooftop bar was closed every night. There were nights I just wanted to be at the pool but no one was ever upstairs . I made a reservation on bookings in advance , however I found a cheaper cost at the same property days before getting there , that changed was not noticed and I was charged the cost of the first reservation . I didn’t like that , these details need to be updated and checked for a smooth check in process . Hector was patient and kind and I appreciated that . My sheets were not clean , however they were changed after I made it known. New towels and rags , are needed and I suggest a kettle with tea products in the room seeing the rooftop bar is closed at nights . vanity lights added to the bathroom mirror would be a nice touch to this small boutique hotel .
Comfortable bed
Location, did not feel safe in this area or secure in the room. Very noisy.
Perfectly situated and staff are so accommodating! Kenya, Jason, Emile and Jaime are all so helpful!
The hotel was very beautiful and clean. Breakfast was great and the staff were amazing!
Overall a great stay in an Excellent Location! The room was large, beautiful and comfortable. Loved the shower, the bathrobes, slippers, and Terrace. Only thing that needs improvement is the breakfast, as it was very basic and bare minimum. Wifi was great as well.
Muy bueno. Lo recomiendo.
It’s in a good location, but there was no hot water, they charged me extra when bringing a guest in for even a short time which they could not explicitly show me in their policy despite no such policy being advertised online or at any point during booking.
The hotel is beautiful, clean and beds are comfortable. The staffs are very respectful. Breakfast is good. The place is centrally located and walking distance to everything. My only problem is their generator malfunctioned during the power outages on our last day. We don’t have water and power for a while so we have to go to another hotel to use their facility. Monthly generator maintenance should be done to avoid this inconvenience in the future.
Location was in city center which is what we expected. It felt safe.
We had accidentally booked 2 double rooms for only 2 people and we were traveling with a party of 4. When checking in, they made us pay an extra fee for these 2 extra people which ended up doubling the price of the stay. We didn't speak Spanish so we couldn't negotiate with them and they were quite rude to us. As soon as we paid, the staff became much nicer and spoke way better English. Our rooms were extremely small, had no nightstands and no lamps next to the bed (contrary to what is shown in the pictures on the website). We did not have hot water in our shower. We wanted to go into the small pool around 6:30 when it was dark (pool hours are until 8pm), and we asked them to turn the pool lights on. The staff was unable to get the lights working, even after calling 3-4 co-workers. We stayed there for 3 more days and asked again, and still they were unable to turn the lights on. The jacuzzi was also cold and not clean. If you say you offer these amenities, please actually offer them. I would have rather paid more for these amenities that actually worked. Now I just feel ripped off.
very good location and a safe and peaceful hotel
Trato director y cercano
Would not recommend this property. Booked this hotel for 1 night stay because it was very late and I wanted somewhere to stay so I can figure out the remainder of my trip. I arrived and it wasn’t until I spoke with the man (who didn’t even want to come to the door and assist me) only to find out that the booking was for tomorrow. I asked if there was anyway it can be applied for tonight’s stay instead & if they could accommodate me, and he said no. That evening I contacted Expedia for a refund and they said they would reach out to the hotel to get it situated. I also wrote the hotel on Expedia to which they told me no. Please be aware that this hotel is also in an area that looks VERY SKETCHY at night. I didn’t even want to stay outside to figure out another available hotel, I ended up going back to the airport because of how scary the outside of the hotel looked. There were people just watching me standing outside looking which made me feel like a target. Would not recommend this hotel at all.
