Got upgraded because the transport forgot to pick us up. Then after going to the room a couple with crying babies were our neighbors and we could hear all. So got back to our original room where a couple fighting everyday at all hours were our neighbors. The guy was drunk all the time and the staff were keen to talking to them even with their own security until i said that if they dint do it i would go knocking on their door. Finally they talked to the couple and they behaved for a couple hours but it was everyday for 4 days and basically at any hour. Walls for some reason let you hear almost sll hapenning in the room next to you….

Best in Cartagena

This hotel is definitely one of the best in Cartagena and especially on the Boca Grande side. I've stayed at this hotel at least four times and will continue to stay at it when I go down to Cartagena. This hotel is top notch beautiful great food and great service.

A Truly Exceptional Stay at InterContinental Cartagena! From the moment I arrived at the InterContinental Cartagena, I was welcomed with genuine warmth and world-class hospitality. The hotel itself is stunning — modern, impeccably clean, and perfectly located with breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea. But what truly sets this hotel apart is the incredible staff. Every single member of the team, from the front desk to housekeeping, went above and beyond to make sure my stay was seamless and memorable. The wait staff at the restaurant deserves a special mention — attentive, professional, and always serving with a smile. I’d like to especially highlight Francisco at the restaurant, whose kindness, attention to detail, and personalized service made every meal feel like a special occasion. His recommendations were spot-on, and his warm demeanor made me feel like more than just a guest. The food was fantastic, the amenities top-notch, and the entire experience left me eager to return. If you’re visiting Cartagena and want a hotel where you’ll feel both pampered and genuinely cared for, look no further than the InterContinental. Five stars all around!
