I was surprised how quiet this hotel was considering its location in Plaza de Novios. The building is beautiful, solidly built and room was really nice. High ceiling, huge bed, wonderful shower. The breakfast was just fine, and staff very helpful.

Amazing hotel in the centre of Santa Marta. The square at night is very noisy but we never heard a thing at night. We were situated on the ground floor and as some reviews have said, our window wasn’t real but I guess that helped with the noise. The best bit about the hotel was the staff. We would open our door in the morning and have fresh coffee handed to us before breakfast. Such a nice touch. Breakfast was the best we had in Colombia. Even helped me when I was struggling to book an onward flight as it was in Spanish. Stay here if you come to Santa Marta 😊

Very pleasant stay in a nice hotel boutique. The location is excellent to visit Santa Marta with an excellent fish restaurant just next door.The rooms are simple but comfortable and the staff was very helpful. The rooftop and small pool were delightful. The breakfast was good and tasty.

Absolute disaster from start to finish. I appreciate this hotel has good reviews and this is why we chose to stay there. We checked in and our room was nice with a large balcony so we took the opportunity of having showers and do some clothes washing. Later that evening we were asked to move rooms as they had checked us into the wrong room. With the help and my daughter’s Colombian boyfriend they agreed we should stay. We were woken at 10.30 again demanding we move which we didn’t. Woken again at 11.30 stating they would call the Police if we didn’t move. We reluctantly agreed so packed everything up, got dressed and moved. My wife and I are almost 70 and it was a horrible experience. To cap it all they tried to charge us more at checkout although we had paid the full amount oncheck in

My 3 night experience at this hotel was simply perfect. The entire staff is very welcoming and helpful at all times. The typical colombian breakfast is the best I've tried in the country so far. The pool and steam room are so nice that I spent most of my days relaxing here and had to push myself to experience the rest of Santa Marta. The steam bath surpassed my expectations as it easily compares to a steam room in a european spa hotel.

NOT RECOMMENDED! The hotel is located in one of the noisiest areas of the city. The music from the many bars nearby is incredibly loud. Stay away from this place if you are looking for some quiet days in Santa Marta.

During our trip to Colombia this was the best hospitality we received. Very helpful and accommodating. We met the hotel owners daughter she was always there to help, they helped us with a trip to Tyrona and our next transfer to Minca. Everybody on the staff were always looking to help us. It is located in the center, accesssible to major locations and a bunch of restaurants at night. The interior of the hotel is beautiful and has a pool on top. City center is full of life at night so will be noisy but we couldn’t hear a thing at night. Highly recommend this place if you are in Santa Marta.

The room was too small like a closet and there was no real window, the window was opening to a solid wall. Adjacent restaurant/ bar shares a wall with the hotel rooms, they were playing loud music till 1:00 am. I don’t recommend staying here, the hotel is located on a dirty chaotic street. if you have to stay in Santa Marta, try to get a hotel with ocean view and stay away from the city centre since it’s a dirty ugly city without any charm. Trust me you won’t miss anything by bypassing Santa Marta city centre. I arrived at 3 pm, after they charged my credit card then they told me the room wasn’t ready. It was an extremely hot day, I had to go sit in a cafe waited till 6 pm. Even at 6 pm they told me the room still wasn’t ready because the lock was broken. Then they gave me another room that someone recently smoked in it. I showed them my reservation that was for a non-smoking room, but they insisted that it was my imagination and forced me to get the smoking room.
