Townhouse Cartagena | Boutique Art Hotel • Rooftop • Bar

We rolled in off the street because it felt right, and headed to the rooftop. As soon as we arrived upstairs, I knew we made a great choice. Amazing vibe, panoramic views of the city, rustic elegant decor, great/friendly staff - especially Javier and Maria - really a perfect happy-hour and sunset hang. Breezy and beautiful. Great tunes; eclectic, deep house. (And I am difficult to please when it comes to music). The food was good too, particularly the fish tacos, and so were the drinks. Could not recommend this place more.

Trendy hotel centrally located in walled city. Nice size and clean room with city view. The room was updated with flooring, colorful walls which gave the tropical look. The shower with the rainfall shower heads was exceptional! There are a lot of other cool and trendy features in the room, but very practical for all types of folks - family, couples, and friends.||Lau at the front desk was outstanding! She was very helpful with our check in process, quickly responded to all of our requests, and was helpful locating specialty shops in the area. Lau spoke both English and Spanish. She always greeted us with a smile, and was very responsive with everything. Excellent customer service Lau! The excellent customer service extended with the rooftop restaurant staff. We ate breakfast and dinner at the rooftop restaurant and found a great selection of entries. All of the entries we ate were delicious!||The hotel definitely has the trendy hip vibe for a younger crowd looking to party. But in my opinion it’s convenient and practical for couples and families with young teens.

This was my second stay at Townhouse. The location is perfect - located in the old walled city and walking distance to Getsemani - and the rooms are well appointed and comfortable with great AC (not everywhere in Cartegena has that!). I loved having the rooftop bar close by. There is a convenience store half a block away for essentials like sunscreen and snacks and loads of restaurants.

Townhouse boutique was AMAZING! The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel welcomed. Lau the front desk was super helpful and so polite. Rafael on the rooftop bar was so kind and so nice. This hotel was perfect for me and my mom not to mention close to everything. I loved the communication they had with me (updating me via msg on events happening here in the hotel) |Not to mention free breakfast which was delicious for the nights we stayed here. (They have a free glass of wine 7-8 pm) Overall great stay and highly recommend.

First off, the location of this hotel is incredible, truly could not be better. The aesthetics of the space are cute and the furnishings are really fun and charming. Unfortunately, for the high price point, I found several aspects disappointing. Rather than a nice boutique hotel, it felt like a fancier hostel that should have been half the price. The rooms are extremely loud, not only from street noise, but also from staff members talking loudly in the hallways. My WhatsApp requests to keep the volume down (there are no in-room phones) were ignored. While the team is reasonably friendly, there’s an overall air of indifference. Questions were often met with a simple “I don’t know,” and despite repeatedly requesting no housekeeping, I returned one day to find a housekeeper in my room with the door wide open. The electronic door frequently broke, locking me out late at night and needing to wait for a teenage electrician who didn’t really know how to fix it and would take batteries from other doors, and the Google Home method of turning on and off the lights was clumsy and did not work. The pool is much smaller than the photos suggest, and the “free breakfast” is fairly minimal.

We came here for the rooftop bar and the views at night were stunning. The drinks were delicious. They had fans to help keep us cool. Javier was our server and was very attentive and helpful in offering suggestions. I would definitely come back!

This is our second time visiting Cartagena and our first with Townhouse. We visited for their brunch the first time and loved the vibe and great food. Staying here was next level - the rooms are unique and well thought out, the extras (endless water, satin robes, ear plugs, etc) make it feel they took time to understand their guests. Maybe the best part is the location. We would walk throughout the walled city and quickly walk back to our room for water, a quick refresh, bathrooms, and be out walking the city again in minutes. When we come to visit again we will absolutely be choosing this hotel!

It's definitely my favorite place. The service, the rooms, everything is great... I'll be back. Thanks to Lau for her kindness and to the other rooftop guests
