Sebastian and Christian were very helpful during our stay. Sebastian took the initiative to make sure we got to our adventure and found the pick up area for our Beach Day. Thomas gave great restaurant suggestions. The staff did an awesome job and they are the type of people that make guests want to return. We were there celebrating a 20th anniversary and the hotel was very quaint. We felt like family during our visit in this boutique with 7 rooms. Loved reading a book on balcony overlooking pool & during breakfast on the patio across from the church & square. The rooftop was cute but we did not get to use it. We didn’t realize the history behind Casa Drake until we kept seeing the stops by different tours & people wanting to catch a peek inside. Size of room/closet/bathroom and walkable location were both the best hidden gems! We really enjoyed Wall City! We plan to return!

A gem of a hotel!

My kids and I stayed at Casa De Alba for 4 nights in early June. We found the room and hotel in line with the online description. The room was comfortable and clean and the staff was super helpful and responsive. We appreciated breakfast which was filling and delicious. The front desk always gave good recommendations and booked the walking and beach tours for us. The location was also extremely convenient. Overall, an A+! We would definitely stay here again.

I stayed in room 11 at Casa De Alba for 9 nights in early September 2023. This was a great hotel with excellent staff and an awesome location. The staff went the extra mile helping me plan my days and navigate the streets of Cartegna. I really enjoyed the pool after a long day of adventuring. My only complaint is there is no hot water unless you ask for it. It was explained that the d city doesn’t have adequate water but I’m not sure if that’s true or not. I would stay here again.

This is a 5* if all that counted is charm character, design, excellent location, and friendly helpful staff. 4* rating is mainly because it presents a number of practical challenges for those expecting your typical luxury / high-end business hotel. Biggest is the lack of phones in the rooms, so even for a cup of coffee, or simple question in the middle of the night you have to lug it down to the reception desk. Again, it’s a wonderful, 5* level property when it comes to charm, character, and design, but definitely not for those looking for more traditional 5* level amenities and services.

We had an amazing stay. This is a historical landmark, and as a result of it being a historical site, there are areas that are not air conditioned. But our room was kept cool and comfortable. The staff went out of their way to meet our every need. Breakfast was delicious. The location is safe and central.

Amazing Property with Warm and Friendly Staff

Our stay at Casa De Alba was perfect. The property is absolutely gorgeous, located right in the center of historic old town Cartagena. The service was incredible. I can't say enough about the amazing and always friendly staff. Antonio was extremely helpful in showing us around the city, making dinner arrangements, island tour, and more. Jorge in my opinion is the best bartender in Cartagena! The food was also fabulous, and you couldn't beat the view/ambience having breakfast on the 2 floor balcony in the morning. We came with 2 children, and everyone had a great time. We look forward to coming back. Thank you to all the staff that I did not mention. Everyone was awesome! Made this last stop on our 3 city tour the perfect end to our vacation.
