Sophia Hotel is ideally located within walking distance to everything! Taxis and horse/buggy are usually lined up right outside the hotel’s door. Its location is more conveniently located closer to nightlife, the local activity and restaurants than many other brand name or more advertised hotels. The staff are wonderful and their rooftop allows a daytime escape from the hustle and bustle when needed. The rooms are well maintained but you have to be aware that mosquitoes exist even in an AC room. Its location is very safe! I would definitely recommend and return to this boutique hotel.

Mi experiencia en el Hotel Sophia en Cartagena fue sencillamente excepcional. Desde el momento en que llegamos, el personal fue increíblemente amable y acogedor, superando nuestras expectativas en todo momento. El desayuno fue excelente, con una gran variedad de opciones frescas y deliciosas que nos hicieron empezar el día de la mejor manera. Quiero destacar especialmente al recepcionista Farit, quien hizo nuestra estadía aún más agradable. Fue muy atento, siempre dispuesto a ayudar y a asegurarse de que tuviéramos todo lo que necesitábamos para disfrutar al máximo de nuestra visita. Su profesionalismo y amabilidad realmente marcaron la diferencia. Recomiendo encarecidamente el Hotel Sophia para cualquiera que busque una experiencia única y acogedora en Cartagena. ¡Volveremos sin duda!

An amazing place to stay in Cartagena. Sophia Hotel only has 15 rooms or so, but the staff is so present and helpful that you feel like you are at a much bigger property. My room was large and lovely with a great view over the adjoining plaza. AC was great too -- very important in Cartagena. Best of all, the location is perfect. Across the street from a quiet plaza, around the corner from one of the most busy ones, near everything. Highly recommended.
