The hotel is small but beautiful cool rooftop bar. Staff was great The only problem I had was on check out I owed 12000. Pesos for a coke and trying to pay with a 50000 and was told they did not have change. Which seemed strange for a hotel with a rooftop bar and restaurant did not have change for a 50.

Simply excellent. Sophia Hotel is fantastic hotel in the heart of the old town/centre. The rooftop pool and bar area has a lovely view and the food is good too. The music can be a little loud, but the staff are friendly and happily turned it down when we were the only couple on the roof enjoying the pool. Reception is excellent with any questions you may have and helped us immensely. The breakfast is also amazing! Thank you to the staff for such a great stay.

charged $30 for water in bathroom without any labeling of cost for water, aside from table in suite living room with qr codes that differentiated those snacks and drinks for sale.

An amazing place to stay in Cartagena. Sophia Hotel only has 15 rooms or so, but the staff is so present and helpful that you feel like you are at a much bigger property. My room was large and lovely with a great view over the adjoining plaza. AC was great too -- very important in Cartagena. Best of all, the location is perfect. Across the street from a quiet plaza, around the corner from one of the most busy ones, near everything. Highly recommended.

I enjoyed the Sophia hotel overall but a few things fell short. The staff was excellent. From the front desk to the staff on site. A special shout out to Belky. She's a gem at the hotel. The hotel is close proximity to everything in the walled city. Great rooftop area with amazing views. My biggest issue was the plumbing situation. Multiple times the shower did not get warm and took several calls down to maintenance to adjust. The toilet also didnt have adequate pressure to flush. Our room also had an odor during the stay. We saw a crew outside the hotel working on plumbing issues, which may have contributed to the problems. Overall an excellent property, but these issues were a slight negative on the trip.

We spent 5 nights at Sophia Hotel in the Haggia (Terrace) suite. The hotel itself is in a great location and walkable to all restaurants and attractions.
In terms of noise levels, the hotel IS situated across a public square and there was a festival taking place the last few days of our stay. It did get loud at times but by 11pm the music/performances stopped. Same with the rooftop lounge. They'd play music during the day and evening, but by 10-11pm it was quiet.
The only thing that could be improved is the furniture in the patio itself. They need to be replaced and the retractable shade was removed/missing. I desperately wish it wasn't as at times it was way too hot/sunny to be out on the patio.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay here. The staff are very friendly and our room was left spotless every day. We would consider this hotel again if we were to come back to Cartagena.
