We actually had to stay in Sol de Alba Hotel Boutique since they had last minute humidity issues at this hotel. The staff was very accommodating and the hotel was so beautiful. We also loved relaxing at the hotel rooftop pool. The location is very central and is lively. We loved our stay!
Loved everything!

There are many things to love about hotel - service, food, cocktails, views, location. Breakfast was amazing! Always a variety of unique, fresh fruits and juices. Eggs, prepared anyway you like or oatmilk with cereal.
There really wasn't anything I didn't like.

Location, cleanliness and the awesome staff.
Nice property! Upon my arrival, I was greeted by a pleasant young man by the name of Juan Pablo. He was most helpful with assisting with my desired tour bookings, restaurant suggestions and reservations.
After a few days, due to an issue with my room that couldn’t be resolved and the hotel being full, I was moved a few blocks away to their sister hotel “Casa de Alba”. I was sad to leave Juan because he is one of the most positive, helpful, individuals. I asked the manager if Juan could come work at my new “home”because he is “the best”? To my surprise, Juan filled in at my new home a few days that week. It warmed my heart. It was a great surprise!! The remainder of review for Juan is under my “Casa de Alba” hotel.
Juan Pablo, THANK you for everything that you did to allow my holiday in Cartagena to be the best ever! You are awesome!!! Keep shining bright my friend! I don’t know what I would have done with out you!!!
Every hotel should have someone like you at their front desk. That would definitely ensure repeat visitors! You are the BEST!
There was a very concerning issue in my room that could have potentially caused a serious incident. I was grateful to be moved to their sister hotel. I felt much safer.

I can express the satisfaction we have. Excellent staff, especially Juan Pablos Ochoa. Talking about customer service, he is the best customer service provider. Thank you, guys.
I do like 1000% recommended

If ever I travel back to Cartagena, I will definitely stay at Leones De Alba only because of one member of the staff. Juan Ochoa. He was very patience, kind and recommended all the beautiful places to visit and the best restaurant. Most of all he would go out of his way to accompanied us to make sure we were in the right place and safe.

This beautiful historic hotel is so charming. The rooms are beautifully decorated and spacious. We were in the bottom floor and got to enjoy the indoor pool. The staff here is beyond helpful and went out out their way to help us with transport to other locations in Colombia. Because this hotel is inside the walled city, there is no sign or address numbers to locate the hotel. It’s a big wooden door next to the clothing shop if you are confused, we were when we got there.
Food could have been better. We ate outside of the hotel mostly. This hotel needs a sign to identify its entrance or keep the front door open.
4.5
The location was excellent because it was close to everything and in the beautiful part of the city. But there was a lot of street noise that could be heard from one of the rooms.
The pillows were too large and they didn't have a selection for different preferences. The hot water also didn't turn on for most of the trip, and when it did the water was too hot and not controllable. Also, the upstairs area could be better designed for use at night.

The breakfast was delicious. The hotel is centrally located. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction at the hotel. Beyker attended to me the day I arrived and ensured my breakfast was tasty and to my satisfaction. Yair made my welcome drink, a mojito, and it was the best mojito I have ever had. He acted as my personal photographer and was so kind to me while I was there. In fact, he walked me over to one of the restaurants at night to make sure I got there. Guillermo was the front desk receptionist who helped me with my bags when I arrived and gave me a tour of the property. Armando was my night time buddy and assisted me with making restaurant reservations and helped me with my bags when I was leaving at 2am in the morning. Juan Pablo assisted me via Whatsapp with making reservations prior to my arrival. He was very attentive and timely in his response. I really enjoyed working with him.
There's no phone in the room to order room service or contact the front desk. There wasn't an iron nor ironing board in the room. I was charged $30 USD for a taxi ride from the airport to the hotel. Instead you can take an Uber for $10 USD after peso conversion. The beverages at the bar was charged in USD instead of pesos. 100000 pesos is the equivalent of $20. To put things into perspective I took an Uber to Baru for 100000 pesos and it was over an hour drive. I was charged $35 USD for two mojitos. The mojitos was one of the best mojitos I've ever had before. However, I don't like the bait and switch. I want to pay the same as what the locals would pay. The hotel doesn't have change for money. I needed change for 100000 pesos and couldn't get any change. You are best calling an Uber and buying something small at the pharmacy to break your money down.

The hotel ambiance was wonderful. Our room was very spacious. The staff (Guierremo) absolutely amazing and so kind and patient. Very helpful with great recommendations for anything we asked for. Breakfast was delicious, don’t know why you would want to eat anywhere else.
No comfortable reading chairs

Our room was exceptional and the staff went out of their way to make us comfortable. They were all very nice and assisted us with whatever we needed. The breakfast was lovely as well.
We were never sure about the bar hours and we did not receive the complimentary mojitos we were promised.

Location ok
This was horrible choice as a 4+ star location. Tiny cramped side room that opens out to
Pool. Renovation has not been done well enough at all. I actually left first night and stayed elsewhere for
My
Trip.

Enjoyed the laid back atmosphere and nature like appeal of the place. Employees we’re welcoming and very kind.
It was initially very difficult for me to locate as a foreigner. I didn’t see any signs and GPS wasn’t being helpful. Also, the suite could use more accessible outlets but that’s a minor critique.

Excellent location, accessible to all the city center, but quiet at night for a good sleep. It feels like a Riat.

No bad comments, absolutely everything was awesome!

Charm of a historic house in the heart of the walled city - authentic to Cartagena - spacious room, good Wifi connection, comfortable bed
A great deal of street noise late into the evening - certainly part of the charm, but bring earplugs!!
