Hotel Capellan de Getsemani

A lovely place in a perfect neighborhood. Just bring your google translate app with you because no one really speaks english well enough to understand needs.

Great location. Wonderful staff. Perfect for solo vacay or couple trip. Would highly recommend!

I was so afraid booking through a 3rd party site but this hotel is beautiful and it smells so good! Hotel Capellan is located at the corner of one of the most photographed streets in Getsamni! It is across the street from the National Park AND bonus - walk through the park and you are at the Walled City and Pegasus Walk Way!!! Really an excellent location!! Andrea at the front desk was wonderful and so was the handsome Rey the bellman. The restaurant is lovely and they gave me a welcome drink while I waited for my room. The room, a king room was on the first floor - you get to it by walking through a courtyard with little pools, exposed brick walls and plants - gorgeous! The room is beautifully appointed with 2 wardrobes, a sitting area a desk and a TV that gets Netflix - important when you want to relax after walking the Walled city! The bathroom was lovely with a shower. This hotel has an elevator up to the roof deck with the pool and bar. The pool is probably a lap pool but I enjoyed sitting in it while reading. People mentioned on other reviews that there are no windows on the first floor - my room was on the first floor and they were right but the room was beautifully lit and I realized that the windows face Calle De Sierpe as I mentioned on of the most popular streets in the Getsemani neighborhood so you probably don’t want windows that open. This was only a minor drawback for me - as I said the room is beautifully lit, but there is noise bring earplugs

Amazing property, clean rooms, gorgeous setting, attentive staff. 3 minute walk into the heart of Getsemani with lots of restaurants sightseeing and parties at night! By far my favorite area in Cartagena. Elizabeth at the front desk was great at helping us with all our needs and the inclusive breakfast was fantastic. The pool was incredible as well! Stay here!!!!

EXCELLENT HOTEL! So beautiful and quiet. Rooms are spectacular and the pool is small but comfortable. Staff was super nice and Carlos at check in was amazing. I would stay here again for sure. If I had to critic something about the hotel was that the room floor was a little dusty but the middle of the hotel is open to the outdoor so that can happen. Other then that everything about my stay was great!

The hotel ambiance, design and location was amazing. The staff went above and beyond especially the officer that was stationed outside of the hotel. He would go out of his way to make sure our family was safe and comfortable leaving and entering the hotel. The only downfall was the hotel not willing to accommodate the days we missed due to our flights being canceled multiple times.

Very friendly staff. Service could had been better/faster as we did have to keep requesting washcloths and waiting for them to bring it to our room. But overall clean and safe.

I would recommend this hotel for couples looking to be in the Getsemani area. Or with older kids. For families with younger kids I found it didn’t have the best amenities and for the too the family suite stairs were quite dangerous, as it had no closed railing. When I came in also they used a very strong smelling eucalyptus based cleaning product which stung my eyes. The manager was very helpful and supported the cleaning of the room to remove scent. Breakfast was excellent. I would recommend checking out the Silvia restaurant nearby as well as the whole area. Big thanks to the manager Tatiana for helping us.

We really enjoyed our stay here! It’s a beautiful, clean and comfortable hotel. It is in a great location right on the edge of Getsemani, near the old town and very close to the marina. The staff here were great and went beyond to help us when we ran into a hiccup with a guide.
