Guest Reviews

• Lorin (8/5): Ok place - Did not receive the welcome drink
• Verified traveler (10/5): Buena elección - Excelente atención y ubicación, proporcionalidad entre calidad y precio. Una buena elección
• tom (2/5): - Die Bilder vom hotel sind schön gemacht.....der rest lässt zu wünschen über.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Bien situé au cœur de la vieille ville dans un bâtiment ancien rénové Accueil passable (Porte fermée à 10h du matin) Chambre au RDC avec fenêtre sur cour à éviter par les claustrophobes ! Pour 115€ on aurait espéré de l’eau chaude (promise pourtant) Pas de wifi dans la salle de petit déjeuner
• Ignacio (4/5): COLD FREEZING SHOWERS IN A TINY ROOM - The hotel room is not the on pictured in the site. Is not a room, is an storage room turned into a room under the stairs. The shower had only cold water, it didnt work. we had to beg to shower in another room because there were no other rooms available (the person on the front desk at night opened a room being painted to let us take a shower there)
• Sol (10/5): Muy buen hotel - El hotel está muy bien, la habitación muy cómoda, la gente ente que nos atendió en nuestra estancia súper amables y colaboradores. El desayuno estaba delicioso. Los espacios comunes, como la piscina y terraza con jacuzzi muy agradable. Fue una buena estancia, la habitación tenía un poco de humedad pero estaba muy bien. La relación precio - confort está perfecto.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful hotel, within walking distance of just about everything. Free bikes to use and explore was a big plus. Only con is the showers were on the cold side. Would stay again
• Bianca (6/5): Hotel bem localizado - O hotel é bem bonitinho e bem localizado. Fiquei num quarto que era no fundo, perto da copa ... então muito barulho logo cedo com o café ! Cama super confortável ! Chuveiro quente ! Café da manhã bom ! Como fiquei em outro hotel antes que achei bem melhor, não repetiria esse ... mas ele é um bom hotel e seu ponto alto é a localização!
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Very good hotel, nice location and very nice staff.
• Frederic (8/5): e ser mejor - Hotel limpio lo unico que la foto cuendo compras l habitacion no tiene nada que ver. La nuestra era muy pequena con suelo fatal y baño por enano .hab 5 galta detallitos de limpieza y decoracion.
• Dolores (4/5): No cumplieron - Reservamos un hotel y cuando llegamos no tenía disponibilidad nos mandaron a otro de inferior calidad
• RODRIGO (10/5): Outstanding customer service. - This is by far the best customer service small hotel I have experienced in my life. Small hotels have usually a much better and user friendly environment than the bigger ones but this one is outstanding.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - We did not stay in Casa Tablada because they had an overbooking or some type of issue and they did not notifies us until I call to find out if all was ok then they told me I was moved to another hotel much different than the one I booked. Therefore my review will go only to Hotel Boutique Casa Heredia because the staff there made worth the stay and the good review, otherwise I’m extremely disappointed at hotel Casa Tablada because my reservation was donde since March and they should not have done what they did.
• Verified traveler (2/5): They Cancelled My Reservation Without Telling Me - WARNING: DO NOT SUPPORT THIS HOTEL BECAUSE THEY MIGHT CANCEL YOUR RESERVATION LAST MINUTE WHEN YOU ARRIVE! I reserved AND prepaid for my reservation months in advance to stay at this hotel. Also, shortly before my arrival, I contacted the hotel letting them know that my flight would arrive well past 10pm and informed them that I would be checking-in very late. I received no response at the time, but did not think much of it. On the night I arrived, the concierge/attendant (I believe his name was "Augusto") told me that they were fully booked and that they did not have room for me. I was upset but calmly informed him that I reserved a room months ago and that I even paid in advance, but he just gave me some lousy excuse about a screw up with their system. (To me this sounded like an obvious lie.) He stated that once they discovered the screw up they booked another room for me at a different hotel. The suspicious thing about this, however, was that they never once attempted to contact me before my arrival, nor did they receive my consent to stay at another hotel/location. It was only when I arrived (late at night with little to no options to stay elsewehere) that I was told I could not stay! When he showed me their "sister" hotel (Casa Heredia), it was clearly inferior. Just imagine being told all this after a long flight. It is extremely unprofessional, to say the least. Casa Heredia generally has cheaper rates on any given day, so they essentially charged me for a stay.
• Verified traveler (6/5): El cambio de hotel no me favorece - Me cambiaron de hotel , me di la oportunidad la primera noche y hoy es la segunda noche, pero el ruido es impresionante. Definitivamente me fue muy bien tiempo atrás en Casa de la Tablada, pero en Casa Heredia (no lo conocía) mucho ruido en las noches. Además que comparando el costo de la noche es las barato Casa de la Tablada. Ojo, la atención de la gente muy buena, pero las instalaciones no.
• Crystal (6/5): Alright - The place is a little run down and they don’t have an elevator. There were a lot of mosquitoes and we got eaten alive by the mosquito bites in the one night we stayed there.
• Raquel (4/5): CASA TABLADA NO ES DE CONFIAR - No respetaron mi reservación hecha con 3 meses de anticipación. Al llegar, nos dijeron que tuvieron problemas con el proveedor y que no tenían cuartoa disponibles. Yo habia leído que es algo que hacen con frecuencia, asi que ya lo esperaba. Nos recibierom en la puerta, ni siquiera vimos el interior del hotel. Tampoco explicaron qué pasó, o qué opciones teníamos. Nos mandaron a Casa Heredia. Un chici muy amable del café junto a Casa Tablado nos ayudó con la maleta oara llegar a Casa Heredia, en donde nos asignaron una habitación diminuta, sin ventilación. Nos quejamos e hicieron el cambio. Nos ofrecieron también el transfer al aeropuerto. El personal de Casa Heredia fue muy amable. Noa comentaron que el cambio de hotel se realizó hacía un mes. ¿Por qué casa Tablada no nos contactó? En fin ... se resolvió, y pudimos disfrutar Cartagena.
• Magnus (10/5): Koselig hotell i gamlebyen i Cartagena - Dette var andre gang vi har bodd på Hotel de la Tablada og vi er strålende fornøyd med begge opphold. Strålende service fra et imøtekommende og hyggelig personell. Hotellet har glimrende plassering midt i gamlebyen i Cartagena.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - La estancia común era muy cómoda, sin embrago, el wifi era muy malo. La habitación estaba al lado de la cocina y desde muy temprano se escuchaba el ruido
• PAULA (4/5): Ainda tem muito o que melhorar - Excelente: Localização Bom: Chuveiro e piscina (apesar de pqna é mto boa). Razoável: Cama e café da manhã ( é estranho a forma como eles servem, você só tem direito a 1 opção do cardápio e a maioria são ovos, demora mto para alguém vir nos servir) Ruim: As instalações são bem antigas, durante minha estadia a luz queimou, a água do box vazou e inundou o banheiro, pedi para deixarem mais toalhas mas nunca lembravam, tive que pedir todas as vezes, a água da hidro estava preta de tanta sujeira, o ar condicionado quebrou, até que no penúltimo dia a energia caiu de vez em apenas um lado do hotel e tivemos mudar de hotel. Para reduzir os danos nos foi concedido transfer gratuito para o aeroporto. Vale ressaltar o atendimento da Sheron que sempre nos foi solicita e nos atendeu muito bem, porém infelizmente só isso não me faria voltar ou recomendar este hotel.
• Angie (8/5): - Me encanto la decoración de todo el inmobiliario. No me agrado el tamaño de la habitación y la piscina. Además fue desagradable que el baño cercano a la piscina olía mal y estaba sucio. El horario para el uso de la piscina y jacuzzis es muy corto cuando regresaba a las 9 al hotel ya no podía relajarme en ellos.
• ELDA (10/5): - Muy buena atención dentro del hotel Sharon te recibe con la mejor disposición y calidez en el servicio. Excelente ubicación hotel hermoso con todos los servicios y no dejen de ir a las arepas del parque Fernandez Madrid
• Günter (8/5): - very nice furnitured and designed, great service, wifi not working
• Verified traveler (10/5): - The hotel is beautiful! The location is very good for getting around on foot. The staff was very friendly and helpful proving tips for how to get around and helping to arrange transportation. The breakfast was great, a lot of selection and the staff were very nice. Highly recommend this hotel, will stay here again the next time I’m in town!
• Mariana (10/5): Súper recomendable - El hotel es hermoso! Esta muy bien ubicado dentro de la ciudad amurallada pero no en las partes más concurridas, lo que lo hace más tranquilo. La decoración es preciosa y la pileta más que necesaria para pasar el calor de la tarde. Ofrecen un desayuno a la carga delicioso. Más que recomendable!
• JAIME (6/5): No me volveria a alojar ahi - No se si me dieron la habitacion mas pequeña pero, era muy pequeña. El agua de la regadera se salia, el aire acondicionado no enfriaba muy bien. el precio estuvo bien creo que era el mejor de la zona, pero por el equivalente en mexico me he quedado en mejores lugares. Adicional me hicieron un cargo al final por invitar personas. El cual me pudieron haber dicho desde su llegada.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Nunca salió agua caliente y el flujo era poco. Toallas viejas y muy delgadas. Desayuno rico. Bien ubicado.
• James (10/5): A nice oasis in the middle of the walled city! - Nice room, great breakfast, very cute hotel.
• henry (10/5): Charming place - Very cozy n comfortable. I will go back Nice breakfast also
• Jose luis (10/5): - Excelente ubicación y atención
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Great location and very stylish layout. I was able to walk easily to all the sights and attractions. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. I only stayed for 1 night. Wifi was decent but only available in the lobby/reception area. The roof top jacuzzi wasn't very clean... Overall my stay was very comfortable.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Cute hotel, great location in a beautiful little street, could use some renovations. Small room but good enough to just sleep. Good breakfast made to order. Front door locked for security, ring the bell and they will come to let you in. Wifi only available in common areas. Pretty new AC unit in the room, works great! Cute little pool and jacuzzi in the terrace.
• Katherine (10/5): Beautiful stay, amazing full breakfast included! - We had a wonderful stay here! The staff was very friendly and the small hotel (I think there were only 5 rooms) made it feel more like a home. We only hung out at the pool for a few cool off swims after exploring the town, but when we did, we had the whole patio to ourselves. Breakfast was amazing! Coffee, fresh juice, a full bowl of fruit and a main dish that varied each day, but typically consisted of eggs and arepas or tostadas. We loved the neighborhood too! It was less crowded than the main part of town, but still had plenty of restaurants and cafes, including La Cevicheria! I would stay here again and recommend it to anyone traveling to Cartagena!
• Deise (8/5): Muito bom - Superou as expectativas. Muito charmosa as acomodações, café da manhã um pouco diferente, mas bom. Localização perfeita
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Everyone was very nice and accommodating. The hotel smells amazing and was very clean and charming. The lady who greeted us when we arrived advised us that he sude we had so much luggage between the two of us, we would not be comfortable in the standard room we booked. She automatically upgraded us to a superior room. No charge. The room is adorable and the bathrooms were nice. Very comfortable bed and ice cold AC. We didn’t have hot was yet both days in the shower, not sure if that was the entire hotel. The free breakfast was very yummy. Locayion was A+ in regards to being in the middle of the historic city and close to restaurants and shopping. I would definitely stay here again
• Monica L (8/5): Cozy and fabulous - Boutique hotel which is lovely. You get the feeling of living in this type of classic home for the area. Service was fantastic. Rooftop lounge and pool area were beautiful. Breakfast is made to order: eggs, fresh fruit and juice, coffee, etc. Minor issue of shower leaking in our bathroom, but reception was gracious about predicting extra towels. Overall, we loved our stay. Hidden gem in a great area of the walled city.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - When I arrived at the hotel the “manager” lied to me and tried to tell me my room was “broken” I could t possibly stay in it. He had re located me to another hotel not of my choice . The maintenance man was there and I had a word with him - he said the was ready! I turns out my booking was cancelled more than 8 weeks previously as he had gotten more money for it. When I was in my new hotel another solo traveller turned up and she had also been cancelled. They do it regularly my new hotel told me. The manger of the tablada was rude. Had no interest in being honest and told me he had “no way of contacting me” I would not recommend this place to anyone , they make up the rules as they go along
• Anthony (8/5): Great stay - The location is really nice, in the walled city, but not in the busy party zones. The little plaza right on the corner is really cool as well. Really cool rooftop area with multiple sitting areas too. The breakfast was also quite nice with fruit and eggs to order.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - There's not hot water, expensive dining, pool is a joke, the offering of spa, is another joke or fake advertising is just 10 minutes hand massaging, the girl at front desk is a local supermodel with attitude towards guests.
• Mario (10/5): - Good service Friendly people Delicious breakfast Nice area
• Verified traveler (4/5): - The hotel was not available due to water problems, they transferred us to other place. The location of the Hotel was wrong in the Google maps.
• Santiago (6/5): - Casa de la Tablada is a nice colonial house adapted into a cozy boutique hotel. The room has most of the essentials you need when you are in a trip. Breakfast is delicious and the kitchen and cleaning staff are amazing, very well educated and ready to provide a great service. Our experience was very positive during our stay here but we think that some maintenance should be done to some parts of the hotel. For example the shower in our room made a mess when someone took a bath and filled the bathroom floor with water. The jacuzzi located on the third floor didn't work properly and most of the water ended up in one of the rooms of the hotel.
• Jacinta (2/5): Don’t stay here! - I did not like this hotel. There was banging and hammering in my wall at 7:00am. Could not turn light off, no phones in the room to call front desk. No restaurant. Everything smelled humid. Room was so small it was ridiculous.
• Mario (10/5): Very nice hotel - Close to nice restaurants and shopping. Close to the beach all within walking distance.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great location! - Getting to the hotel was an experience, be warned that the Google maps location is wrong, it's not in Boca Grande, it's in the walled city! The hotel itself was great and the rooms clean. The breakfast was good, and service was excellent.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Cartagena - Pleasant little place, great central location and friendly helpful staff
• William (10/5): Worth the money - The hotel was beautiful and kept in good conidition. The bar wasn't working when I was there but it is so close to all the shops and restaurants you don't need it. Overall I had a good stay and it is well priced
• Susy (6/5): - The Hotel was okay, the staff very nice and helpful. However, the hotel made a lot of mistakes with our accomodations. We had a total of 6 rooms and they gave us 2 very small rooms that we had not pay for. 1 of the rooms the shower didn't work and another room got flooded when it rained 1 day and they couldn't fix it or change to another room. It was definitely missing some organization. The staff was always friendly and willing to help.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Beautiful hotel, some minor issues - This was probably one of our nicest hotels on our trip. The facilities were great, there are 3 pools (2 small ones on the roof) and lots of places to hang out in or out of the sun. It's right in the centre of the walled city so you can't get more central. The air conditioning was the biggest necessity because Cartagena is hot all day and night. Breakfast was great and free bikes to use. The room was beautiful, but lacking a bit of TLC... there was a stain on the duvet, the bathroom didn't lock, the canopy sheet was very wrinkled, and there was no toilet paper when we checked in. I had to go ask for some and the man at the reception said he would bring some but after waiting for an hour we went back down and he seemed to have fallen asleep and forgotten. The biggest issue was the day we were there the city shut off the water all day but luckily the hotel filled some containers and we could at least flush the toilet. HOWEVER, the following day when the water the rest of the rooms were back on, ours didn't work. We asked at reception and their maintenance guy told us there was a problem with the second floor, and brought us two buckets of water to shower with. While we appreciated his efforts, we were shocked that a boutique hotel like that would think that was an appropriate alternative after not being able to to shower the whole previous day. We went back and they reluctantly gave us another room to shower. Overall, I would probably stay again.
• Sebastian (10/5): - Great service. Great staff
