Avis sur Hotel Stil Cartagena

Though the reception had its somewhat limited English ability, the staffs there were eager to try helping my tour needs. The AC did not work in the first room, but the staff quickly moved me to another room with a working AC. There was a convenient fridge in the room.

Best hotel for the price. Nice room, good bed, clean bathroom. The bet thing is that you just walk few block to the wall city and seaport. It's a really good place to be. Please dot expect anything luxurious.

Check in went smooth. Room was clean, bathroom door frayed at the bottom, no big deal. Wi fi worked fine and a/c was good. in room fridge kept everything ice cold.

2 night stay. A 10-15 minute walk to the Walled City and roughly 15-20 minutes to Castillo San Felipe de Barajas. Hotel borders a noisy public square with a fair amount of foot and vehicular traffic that can be very bothersome to light sleepers or visitors who simply prefer peace and quiet. Wifi is available but it was very spotty and inconsistent and only useful for 5 minutes or so when it worked. Room included a very basic bathroom providing only one towel, taking a shower was the equivalent to bathing under a cold water only garden hose. Hotel is very dorm-like and not any better than a hostel but for more money. I've made 5 trips to Cartagena and have spent approximately 15 nights in the city and this is the only one of 8 locations that I have patronized (ranging from basic hotels to B&Bs to higher end establishments) that I would not recommend. There are simply too many other options available in the area that offer a better location, more amenities, and/or lower prices than you will pay here. Far too much money for what amounts to extremely basic accommodations.

Keep in mind this is colombia, not the U.S., so don't expect the same. That being said, the place was clean and very close to the walled city. All staff were very nice and spoke slowly if needed. The breakfast was good, and the restaurant on the corner served a great lunch. The area looks sketchy at night, and if it were the U.S., it would be, but this is colombia and the standards are different. I never experienced anything threatening, near the hotel or anywhere else in the touristy areas. I would totally stay here again, and probably will. For $50 bucks a night you could do a lot worse.

I really enjoyed staying at hotel stil. The staff was amazing especially my new friend ezequiel. He's the man and will take care of you if you're staying there.

The hotel is in a good location, a block away from the walled city. I got a room with air conditioning for a decent price, the only cons were: no hot water on the shower (apparently common problem in Cartagena), mattress very hard, very noisy (you can hear people having shower next door). Besides that it was a decent hotel, very average breakfast and very good wifi. No English speaking staff.

Gracias por todo, sólo las camas no son tan cómodas pero cuando vas de vacaciones lo último que quieres es dormir

En sintesis bueno, es un hotel con infraestructura antigua por ende las instalaciones estan para refacción, la atención del personal buena, el desayuno incluido bien, muy cerca a la ciudad amurallada y la plaza de la India Catalina queda en la plaza Telecom, es un hotel como para cuando uno va a conocer el lugar ya que todo el día paras afuera y solo llegas a descansar, el precio razonable, te puedes desplazar a pie por toda la ciudad.
