Top hotels in Casco Antiguo

AC Hotel Cartagena
The room was lovely, the beds were really comfortable and the staff were pleasant. The only downside was you could hear everything from outside. We was in room 103 and the noise from outside made it difficult to sleep. If it wasn't for the noise it would have been a perfect stay

Hotel Los Habaneros
Restaurant staff were very friendly especially Jose. The room was clean but for some reason it was very hot with the air con off (room 328). With the air con 'on' it made little difference.
