Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this boutique hotel. The location is fantastic, close to shops and restaurants, and the rooms are spacious and charming, but the service left something to be desired. It was disappointing to feel like an inconvenience during my stay, especially when moving rooms for my additional night, and I was surprised to be charged for coffee and bottled water, which doesn't align with what I expect from a hotel of this caliber.
Bovedas de Santa Clara is a charming boutique hotel with an intimate atmosphere, nestled within the historic walls of Cartagena. The staff truly made my stay enjoyable with their friendly and accommodating service. While the rooms are spacious and well-equipped, I found the mattress to be a bit too soft for my liking. Overall, this hotel offers great value with access to excellent amenities nearby.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. On the plus side, the breakfast was exceptionally delicious and a real highlight of my stay. The location was also superb, placing me right near charming restaurants and shops. However, I faced multiple issues with room cleanliness and inconsistent housekeeping, which definitely put a damper on my experience.
This charming hotel boasts a fantastic location within the historic walled city, offering easy access to great restaurants and shops. The spacious rooms are beautifully designed, making them perfect for families. However, I experienced some issues during my stay with the service, which felt inconsistent at times. While the breakfast and pool access were definite highlights, the lack of attention to detail in service and amenities left something to be desired.
I had a wonderful stay at this boutique hotel! The service was exceptional, making me and my mother feel truly special. Access to the facilities at the nearby sister hotel was a huge plus, especially the stunning swimming pool and jacuzzi. However, while the room was spacious and comfortable, the Wi-Fi was a bit spotty for the first day and a half, which was slightly frustrating. Overall, it's a great place with so much to offer!
