Colonial Boutique Hotel Steps from Cartagena's Clock Tower
Location & Architecture
Hotel Boutique Las Carretas is housed in a traditional colonial building with exposed stone walls and Spanish-style courtyards. The hotel sits less than a 10-minute walk from the Clock Tower and the pier for day trips to Islas del Rosario. Direct access to major historical spots like Bolívar Park and the Museum of Gold makes the location a base for exploring the walled city.
Rooms & Amenities
Each air-conditioned room includes a flat-screen TV, minibar, and a modern private bathroom with a shower and bathrobe. The hotel offers 17 rooms, some with balconies overlooking the busy street, providing natural light and a view of daily life. Rooms are cleaned daily, and the hotel provides free earplugs for guests sensitive to street noise.
Dining & Breakfast
A full American breakfast with Colombian coffee and tropical fruits is served daily, including made-to-order eggs, pancakes, and waffles. The breakfast buffet changes daily and offers fresh fruit, cereals, juice, and pastries. Complimentary bottled water and coffee are available throughout the day in the common area.
Wellness & Recreation
The hotel has a small outdoor swimming pool on the rooftop, open all year and supplied with pool towels. On-site spa services include relaxing massages, and the sun terrace with outdoor furniture offers a space to unwind. A solarium and public bath are also available for guests.
Services & Tours
A 24-hour front desk with concierge service arranges city tours, yacht rentals, and trips to Rosario Island. Airport shuttles to Rafael Nuñez Airport (11 km) can be booked, and the hotel offers luggage storage for guests arriving early or departing late.

“This boutique hotel places you squarely in the heart of Cartagena, steps from the Clock Tower and other key historical sites; inside, the blend of colonial style with up-to-date comforts creates a distinctive atmosphere. While street-facing rooms can be lively, quieter options and attentive service ensure a relaxing stay, plus, breakfast is a highlight. It's a solid choice for experiencing the city's charm.”
