Stayed at El Marquez for a week with my wife. We were very happy with the service that was provided. Junior who worked the front of the house was fantastic, always smiling and took care of any detail that needed attending to. Armando was also an exceptional employee always ready to assist when needed. The rooms were always cleaned promptly and the pool area always kept neat. The food in the restaurant was also very good. Rooms were very quiet. Would stay there again

I had a wonderful stay at this charming boutique hotel. The refined colonial decor adds a unique and elegant touch, perfectly blending the old-world charm with modern comforts. The service was excellent, attentive and personalized, making me feel right at home. Breakfast was a delight, offering a variety of delicious options to start the day. I particularly enjoyed the wine cellar, which had a fantastic selection. The outdoor pool was a great spot to relax and unwind. Overall, a fantastic experience, deserving of 5 stars! Great for couples !

Hotel had a shower that didn’t drain. They fixed it and then the problem continued. We had to fix it. I spoke with hotel manager and requested a discount and was denied immediately. He offered another room. We moved rooms and the roof was leaking water onto the bed. They did absolutely nothing. Don’t recommend and will never stay again!

I loved the attentive service the staff offers. Because there are only 9 rooms in the hotel, you are waited on hand and foot. Everyone was very helpful. Our housekeeper Claudia was excellent. She turned our beds down nightly and left us notes and chocolates on our pillows. We were in the pool and forgot to bring towels, the housekeeper immediatly brought us some before we even had a chance to ask. The waiters at the restaurant offered us poolside service with drinks and snacks. It was an overall positive experience.

We absolutely loved this hotel in a stunning historical building right in the middle of the old city. We loved sitting on the veranda at night and watching the cacophony of people below. The staff was amazing—they helped us plan several day trips and accommodated our 4 year-old’s special requests for food and drinks. We had room 308 (with two floors), which I have seen some other commenters complain about, but it worked perfectly for us. We liked having a separate living area and bedroom, but if you are unstable on stairs or are worried about a child falling down them, then you might want to book a different room. The restaurant, located in the beautiful central courtyard, had delicious food. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

As others have said, the architecture and history of this building is breathtaking. The young lady at the reception was speaking English fairly well but none of the other staff. No hot water but - more importantly- air condition is extremely efficient. Fairly loud music. Breakfast offers American and Columbian style but Columbian style was not available on 2 of our 7 days.

Dont stay here! I lost in my room a 14k gold ring and no one did nothing about it they just make me look like i was making a story up! The house keeper went to room and ask me and she make a “report” and never again i saw her i ask in the reception and nothing!! lost a 500 dollars ring! And no one knows about it! Its not save to leave your jewelry or nothing valuable! And the hotel dose not look like in the pictures! And the pool dose not have filter!

The property location is centralized a lot of options to eat and it’s walkable and safe. The room was just Ok for us it’s very dark it needs more lightning and I understand they want to keep the original architecture but it needs a few updates. The restroom was very dark. The pressure of the shower was very low. The staff are very nice and extremely helpful. We only had breakfast there their coconut lemonade and iced coffee is the best. I would definitely come back to Cartagena but perhaps try a different hotel.

The hotel is very good locate, with plenty restaurants, shops and activities around. Service was good ; the kitchen need more employees to get the breakfast on time ; second day we wait 45 min for omelette and we have to cancel becase we had an appointment. Also the lockbox of the room need upgrade. But overall for the price was a good choice.

This is a great little hotel in the midst of the walled city. The property has a restaurant at it's core and lovely common spaces for all guests to enjoy. This was our final stop of visiting numerous countries and using many hotels along the way, and we enjoyed it the most. We would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone going to Cartagena's walled city.

We only eat breakfast in the hotel and Orlando provided excellent service. The woman at the front desk bar was not so nice, the rest of the employees were great. I recommend this hotel, it’s in a great location within walking distance of the best places in the Walled City.
