Guest Reviews
- Claudia (8/5): Lugar maravilhoso, casa espetacular, silêncio d tranquilidade singulares. Requer um pouco mais de atenção dos proprietár - Gostamos de tudo há muito conforto boa limpeza . Por motivos quaisquer Nso podemos abrir as janelas…. Falta um frigobar uma vez que a pousada só oferece o café da manhã sem estrutura para outras refeições.
- Desi (9/5): Highly recommend - Beautiful boutique Colonial hotel in a quiet area of Cartagena old quarter.
Beautifully decorated, helpful staff, delicious breakfast, plunge pool, roof terrace. Lovely . Would have liked a coffee machine in room. Early birds will have to wait.
- Adam (10/5): - Staff were lovely, hotel was so calm away from the noise and business but still a short walk from everything within the old town. Bed was really comfortable, hot water in the shower. Breakfast was amazing every day. The decoration and ambience of the hotel was really calm. Honestly everything was amazing Water from the tap for the sink in the bathroom could come out scolding hot at times which took us by surprise every time
- James (10/5): Wonderful Boutique Hotel, wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Cartagena - Everything. It is charming, relaxing and immediately welcoming on arrival. For a small boutique hotel it has lots of delightful communal areas to relax. Is in a wonderful location inside the old city. Its main dinning/living room is magnificent. And above all, the Staff are simply wonderful. Nothing… even with a 12 hour power cut/no water, Staff were brilliant in making sure we were fed and comfortable.
- Marijana (10/5): Nous avons resté 5 jours, c etait parfait ! - Tout !! Le petit dej, la chambre le lit, le calme, roof top, dommage que le jacuzzi n’a pas marché. L’odeur des moisissures dans la salle de bain

Exceptional property, service, attention to detail, comfort, amazing staff, rooftop patio with great view and jacuzzi, great breakfast, decor, fantastic location on one of the most photographed streets in old Cartagena. Quiet!
The best hotel we stayed during our trip to Colombia! Can’t think of anything!

- Lindsey (9/5): Peaceful, clean and charming hotel - Gorgeous boutique hotel on a quiet part of the street in the historic center/walled city of Cartagena. Clean and refreshing little pool, gorgeous old house/hotel, beautiful and comfortable room and tastefully decorated. The staff were so lovely, communicative and helpful - they do a wonderful job.
- Laure (10/5): Magnifique et reposant - Tout de l’accueil à la déco, le calme, le service le confort un magnifique endroit à l’abri du tumulte de la ville et de l’effervescence touristique. 3 jours qui ont été une petite parenthèse où on avait plaisir à rester après nos escapades en ville. Très bon petit déjeuner (mention spéciale pour les pancakes) merci encore à tout le personnel Le seul truc qui pourrait manquer c’est un petit frigo pour y mettre sa bouteille d’eau et la garder fraîche 😉
- Lorena (9/5): -
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marc (9/5): Superb -
- Michael (9/5): Like staying in a beautiful private villa - Quiet location, beautiful setting and furnishings.
Wonderful staff. Hotter water for shower would have been appreciated.
- Juliet (10/5): A wonderful, romantic, gorgeous stay - Casa Don Sancho was an absolutely beautiful place to stay in Cartagena. We traveled here for our honeymoon and loved how gorgeous the property was, and how intimate it was. We stayed in the suite on the first floor and you could walk right out to the pool, and hear the rain in the courtyard- it was amazing. The house is on a quiet block as well but just two blocks away from shops and the bustle of the city. We could not recommend the property more! The staff was great and worked around our language barrier- setting up welcome flowers, champagne and snacks for us upon arrival, and coordinating drivers for us when needed. Everyone was friendly but never overbearing- it truly feels like you are renting a house of your own. The house is an old historic property so don’t be surprised by squeaky old doors, or water that doesn’t heat up quickly- it’s part of the charm!
- Chuanjie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Allie (10/5): Immaculate property.. far surpassed all expectations - Unbelievably gorgeous. Pictures do not do it justice.
The service is next level. The staff goes above and beyond. Shout out to Kelly and the whole staff for arranging an incredible stay. The property is immaculate and so well located by the sea. The rooftop is gorgeous.
Make sure to take a boat out and go to the beach club.
Far surpassed all expectation. 11/10!
- Sandra (9/5): Wonderful peaceful hotel - Very attentive staff and beautiful hotel. Better internet service at times
- Paula (9/5): Superb -
- Matthew (9/5): More like a private villa with personal team (with a few extra guests staying) than a hotel! - The property is wonderfully charming, well maintained, stylish and intimate (it is truly boutique) - the small number of rooms and high quality of the property is what you are paying for. As it is very small it does not maintain a number of facilities that a hotel would have (e.g. no gym, no concierge, no business centre, there is no permanent doorman you ring to be let in) but I found the hotel and its management went out of its way to make up for absence of these things with open ended service: if they could make it happen they would! After my speaking with them they set up tailored arrangements for me including an English language whatsapp group "virtual concierge" to help me access Cartagena and its delights despite the fact I have zero Spanish language capacity (restaurant bookings for myself and friends, tours, tastings, even sorting postage stamps and dropping off post cards, nipping into town to scan an urgent document etc - these are real examples I can testify to). From my experience, Casa Don Sancho wanted every guest to have the perfect visit - and not a single member of staff forgets your name or ever fails to smile and make you feel safe, welcome and important. Rarely to I rate a property this high - well done to the team at Casa Don Sancho! See comments above - because this is a genuinely boutique property some facilities were not present but from my experience the staff well and truly made up for it with an exceptional level of service that founds solutions to the absence of some facilities. Perhaps the one outstanding item: if it were possible to introduce a room for gym/ fitness purposes (may not be space for this).
- Sara (10/5): Everything you need for a lovely stay - The service was impeccable, the management was gracious and accommodating. The food was lovely and the beds were super comfortable.
- Shirit (10/5): Exceptional -
- Felix (10/5): A must stay when visiting the Old City of Cartagena. - We loved staying here and the close walking distance to all the Old City has to offer make this a must stay hotel. The staff was excellent and at your call 24 hours a day. Nothing.
- Theophilus (10/5): Exceptional -
- Robert (10/5): Exceptional -
- La (9/5): Superb - Great design, inner tranquility and tasty breakfast. Loved the rooftop after sunset. Helpful staff. Rooms are cosy, but not that soundproof through doors.
- Felicitas (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful hotel, every detail was well thought through! Very comfortable and the staff is so friendly. Highly recommend. The breakfast was great, I had to wake up very early sometimes to take some work calls and the security offered me coffee. It feels like you're in your own house.
- Brian (10/5): Exceptional -
- John (10/5): The staff were the best we have experienced and was quick to assist with anything we needed. - Previous beautiful colonial home which has been restored and decorated with excellent taste. Only 6 rooms so it feels like you live there. Several different seating areas made it a great place to chill after a day in town. nothing to not like
- Advai (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sarah (10/5): Gorgeous, romantic historical stay in Cartagena! - The Casa Don Sancho was a gorgeous, romantic stay in Cartagena. Tucked away on a quieter street right by the seawall, it has a perfect location for exploring Old Town Cartagena but away from any noise. The house itself is gorgeous, with luxurious rooms and unique touches. The breakfast was simple and delicious. We loved the view from the rooftop and the pool as well! Nothing, the Casa Don Sancho was perfect.
- Osunyameye (10/5): Exceptional -
- Emilia (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect!
- Malcolm (9/5): we loved the hotel and will come back - Beautiful interior, tastefully decorated
- Reddout (10/5): This hotel was exceptional. The customer service was top notch and very helpful! - The breakfast was exceptional. From the fruit to the custom eggs and the wonderful great room to experience it all in!
- Natalie (10/5): Beautiful property in the heart of Cartagena - The hotel is exceptional and luxurious. You feel as though you are tucked away in your own garden oasis. The complimentary breakfast was amazing. The staff were lovely. The room was spacious and clean and the bed was very comfortable. This is now my favorite hotel in Cartagena.
