Hôtel qui fait également boite nuit donc un hôtel où on ne peut pas dormir avant 3h30...ce qui est quand même incroyable sur le principe ... La chambre qu on nous a donné a été sans fenêtre ...à 110e/nuit c était juste du irrespectueux. Je pense que c est le plus mauvais hôtel que j ai pu faire de ma vie, leur principal activité est boîte de nuit avant d être un hôtel ...ils s en fichent de toute manière de connaître leur qualité de service ...et c est d ailleurs certainement pour ça qu il a fallu payé le séjour avant d arriver ..histoire de ce retrouvé coincé la bas pendant 3 nuits

The hotel was really nice for the price. Although we didnt get any help to take our suitcases up to the room and it was kinda hard because there’s no elevator. We had a balcony that allowed us to have a view to the “Torre del Reloj”

I recommend to have better wifi connection.

The hotel is conveniently located, near restaurants, museums and shops. However it turns a little uncomfortable because of the noise of the music and the people partying in the plaza in front of the hotel.

Hotel Torre del Reloj overlooks Plaza Coches and is perfectly located in the old city. 5 minute walk to Bodeguita, where boat tours depart from, 8 minutes to some very nice restaurants in Getsmani and the food truck park on the harbor. It has a fantastic roof terrace bar with great latin music videos. Several ATM's close by. Piccolo's pizza next door....if you like pizza their pizza will knock you out. A little further along in the arcade is a Colombian snack bar with cheap and very tasty empanadas. Included breakfast was standard fare, no complaints there. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a shower head that was half working, told them in the morning, there was a new one installed when we came back at the end of the day. Dropped off some dirty shirts in the morning, they hanging in our room in the afternoon, and for a very reasonable price. WiFi was good, strong signal. Airco mini splits in the rooms was tip top, which you really appreciate in Cartagena's heat. The only drawback for some is that it's noisy at night. The square and surrounding streets are full of people until late at night, and some music from the roof terrace filters down to the rooms. Didn't bother me at all, but I could see that some difficult sleepers would find it a problem. All in all we had a great week there, and would recommend staying there if going to Cartagena for the first time.

For meget larm om natten

Hotellet virkede ved første øjekast godt. Det var dejligt centralt, men som mørket faldt på kom larmen fra baren på taget. Denne larm var ret heftig, da gæsterne skulle bruge hotellets trappe, når de skulle op og ned. Vi kunne desuden hver nat høre flasker rulle på gulvet deroppe, samt bassen kørte nonstop hele natten. Det var ikke meget søvn, vi fik. Den sidste nat blev bordet og stolene udenfor vores balkondør desuden også brugt af fulde mennesker, så der var endnu mere larm! Det kunne være en ide med afskærmning mellem hotelværelserne og trappen, så hotelgæsterne kan få lov til at sove i nogenlunde fred og ro! Det er også en smule underligt, at vi fik at vide, at en flaske vand kostede 1.000 pesos ved morgenmaden, og da vi så skulle tjekke ud et par dage senere kostede det pludselig 3.000 pesos. Det er altså noget underligt noget!! Ude på badeværelset var døren til brusenichen desuden i stykker. Man var nødt til at holde den lukket med en fod eller hånd, mens man var i bad, og alligevel kom der vand på gulvet.

Total disappointment.

We booked a week in advance for one night in order to spend New Years Eve within the walled city of Cartagena. We expected it to be noisy since the mini balcony room overlooks the clock tower and plaza de Los coches. The point of paying double for what these rooms go for was to enjoy the view and action in the plaza. We even stopped by the day before checkin to reconfirm our prepaid booking even though we had received 3 emails confirming our “guaranteed” paid booking. Two hours before check in I got a what’s app call from this hotel and they told me that there were no rooms available. We stormed over there. They offered to put us up in Boca. We didn’t leave until they found us a room. They came up with something after an hour of complaining. We had no access to the restaurant or the bar due to their New Years party. Total disappointment.

ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING

This place was absolutely disgusting! The first room I got which was supposed to be their best and largest, the air conditioning didn’t work and the shower door didn’t close so the floor and toilet were soaked. Air is necessary as it is 100 degrees every day. The second room I got was smaller with two little beds that were slid together. The sheets were filthy with what looked like an ass print and all night long I was falling between the two beds. They didn’t have a fitted sheet so the bedding came apart very easily. The place has cockroaches and the WiFi didn’t work in the rooms. There was black mold in several areas in the bathroom, a used condom in garbage, the sink wouldn’t drain so I had to twist out the stopper, the outlet was melted, the faucet barely trickled water and they left me soap that was open with fuzz and hair on it. I threw it away and they took it out of the garbage and left it for me the next day. When I checked out, they wanted 150,000 pesos because my son stopped by for a couple hours. I would have left after the first night but it was non refundable. This place is filthy.

Excelente ubicación y el hotel cuenta con todos los requerimientos, el bar en la terraza es precioso. El único problema es que está frente a una de las plazas con mayor movimiento, por lo que la gente que tiene problemas para dormir va a tener complicaciones, nosotros no.

Hotel muy básico pero céntrico

El personal amable y servicial sin embargo encuentro un hotel casi hostal. Sin agua caliente y mi primera noche faltaba ropa de cama. Una ventaja es que está cerca de todo por encontrarse n pleno casco histórico y esa también es su desventaja pues hay ruido intenso hasta al menos las 4 am los fines de semana. Yo no volvería a hospedarme ahí.
