Cartagena and related destinations

Wander through a walled colonial city where Caribbean breezes carry salsa music across plazas filled with fruit vendors in impossibly bright dresses. The Clock Tower marks your entrance to the old city, where balconies drip with bougainvillea above streets that seem designed for getting pleasantly lost. Palace of the Inquisition offers history with a macabre twist – torture devices displayed in a building beautiful enough to make you forget their purpose. Escape the afternoon heat at Teatro Heredia, a jewel box of a theatre where performances feel intimate despite the grandeur. When the cobblestones get too hot, retreat to Bocagrande Beach or visit the National Aviary to witness Colombia's extraordinary bird diversity up close.

"Staff was amazing. Rodolfo was super helpful and pleasant when checking in, Anderson was attentive when taking our belongings to the room and welcomed us every time we walked into the building. The rooftop pool is very very cramped. The location is honestly mid. It is in the middle of everything, which is nice, but if you’re not going straight to your car you’re bombarded by solicitors every few feet and they do know what no means and they do not listen. It is unfortunate because there are so many nice buildings and restaurants and places to go near by, but can’t get far without people bugging. The location is also a little far from the tourist attractions and airport. About 15-20minute uber drive to old town and the walled city."

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Cartagena

  1. Book for the cheapest times: Visiting Cartagena on a budget is particularly appealing during the months of September to November, when hotel prices may drop, offering a more affordable experience. For at least 3 to 4 days, travellers can explore the city's rich history, monuments, museums, and other cultural attractions such as lively cafes, live music venues, and traditional dining spots. This period is ideal for those seeking great value for money, as it provides a budget-friendly opportunity to enjoy historical tours, cultural landmarks, and even natural parks, ensuring an engaging and memorable visit.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: When planning a trip to Cartagena, you may discover offers by exploring the DealsOpens in a new window section on Hotels.com. If you're seeking last-minute savings, the Last-Minute Deals area could provide discounted hotel options near your travel date. To further enhance your savings, consider using Smart Shopping , a feature within the app that allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, so you'll be more likely to spot price drops or available rooms. Setting up email alerts or push notifications will keep you informed about flash sales and promotions, ensuring you don't miss an opportunity to save.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may differ depending on factors including the hotel's location, star rating, and the season, so being flexible with your dates could help you save on your stay in a Cartagena hotel. For those seeking a distinctive experience, boutique hotels might offer a more personalised touch and potentially better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average, and if it appears higher, we may suggest alternative dates that could offer more affordability.
  4. Consider your location: Remaining closer to key attractions or city centres can offer convenience, although it often comes with a higher price tag. For more affordable rates, consider hotels in less central areas or neighbourhoods, striking a balance between cost and ease of access to the sites you plan to visit. You might also explore independent hotels further afield, which usually tend to be cheaper and can provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
