Hotel Casa Noi  

In Cartagena, positioned for both history walks and beach stops. You're minutes from the Walled City—about a 4-minute walk to San Pedro Claver Church and Convent and roughly 7 minutes to the Clock Tower. Cartagena de Indias Convention Center is about 1.3 km away and Bocagrande Beach sits roughly a mile from the property.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool or relax on the rooftop terrace with city views. A beach shuttle is available for a surcharge, and Bocagrande is an easy walk or short ride away. Free Wi-Fi and on-site parking are provided. Tour desk, transfer arrangements, laundry and dry-cleaning, safe-deposit boxes and a 24-hour front desk round out practical touches.

Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected. Concierge and front-desk staff can arrange transfers and an airport shuttle for an extra fee.
