Placita Vieja Hotel Boutique Spa

Centro Historico
Just spent one night in the presidential suite before heading out of the country. I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the amazing location of this hotel. Eliana was a wonderful, warm presence at check-in and Jesus was amazing as well. He made us feel like family. This establishment gives you privacy of a hotel with the warm feel of a bed and breakfast. If you're looking to splurge on the presidential suite, you'll enjoy an awesome room and with amazing views of the city. We stayed on a Saturday night and I slept very well even with all the partying nearby. My partner didn't sleep as well, but he is a super light sleeper. Great hotel!

The room was clean, had a writing desk and hanging space for clothes. TV and wifi. Shower water was cold but when requested was fixed with hot water. Breakfast was included. I am not a spanish speaker but use google translate and my broken spanish sentences. The girl didn't speak any English and that's OK but she treated me like I was a foreigner walk in that she wanted nothing to do with. I asked for the menu. She said there wasn't one. She told me thru translate eggs 3 ways that's it. I asked for fruits juice and toast available only because I saw others had this. That night I went to reception to ask if menu they said yes. As I was staying a few days and doing day tours I wanted to enjoy a breakfast before leaving. Next morning with her sour attitude she again approached and spoke in spanish. This time annoyed I said you know I don't speak spanish and I'm not doing this again. A guy Came and told me options change each day. I explained I didn't get the options I saw of others and only got what she offered and the fruit I saw. I ended up with same breakfast. For this reason I cannot recommend this hotel. They need a menu. Then you know what's available. I can read spanish better than I speak. Relying on a sour unfriendly and unhelpful girl is not an option I choose. For this I don't recommend as foreign traveller.
Hotel Nueva Granada

Clentelle middle class, upmarket, solo travelers reading books in whicker chairs. Fab pool and luscious plants Owners love animals, breakfast great. Rooms air cor and fan, fridge, Clean peaceful plenty of tables.Quiet at night Shutters on windows for privacy. Mr Vichy is the cat, you see him, we fed him tuna. The owners are quick to rectify any problem, our toilet did not flush, new room given . Outside turn right and your 6 mins from the beach. So clean and great value in Santa Marta. If you don't want street vendors outside then the ONLY option is the enclosed private citadel of top hotel names, which offers no better security than we had. The bus to Cartagena stops outside. This is genuinely an upmarket oasis. It's difficult to leave the pool and luscious vegetation . You can get snacks, e cigs beer from street vendors passing by in seconds. The hotel sells alcohol also. On some nights it offers a dining night, the dining room reminds me when James Bond was in Cuba if you've read Flemming. What a pleasure, different, cant understand why it not mobbed in tourist season
Hotel Catedral Plaza

Centro Historico
We arrived after a flight from Bogota. The check in was fast. The room was basic, and on the small side. I went to take a shower and there was no hot water. I called to the front desk, and was told it was being repaired. and would be fixed in about 10 minutes. In the morning there was still no hot water. At 10 the next morning, I received a call that the water was fixed. Now I understand that things break, but don't appease me by saying it will be fixed in 10 minutes when you know it will not.

I only had one problem with the air conditioning, it didn't cool. Spacious and well-cleaned rooms. It is close to Santa Marta Bay, there are some restaurants nearby. The staff is very friendly and attentive. I only stayed one night.
