Hotel Casa San Agustín, Cartagena

4.9 (7 reviews) · Luxury
Charming boutique hotel with 17th-century architecture, an aqueduct pool, and access to a private beach

Overview

The luxurious Casa San Agustín is a small restored hotel that exudes Cartagena's fresh contemporary style and colorful Caribbean sensibility. Throughout the hotel, you'll find elegant wood features and gold accents. The outdoor spaces are beautifully landscaped, with green palms, blooming hibiscus plants, and draping vines. You'll even have access to a private beach during your stay. If you want to explore the city, the hotel has an excellent location, as many fun places to visit are within a 10-minute stroll, including Puerta del Reloj, San Pedro Claver Church and Convent, the Clock Tower, and Cartagena de Indias Convention Center.

The spacious rooms at Casa San Agustín blend colonial architecture with modern luxury. You'll likely find the beds exceptionally comfortable—one of the highlights mentioned by past kimkim guests. The rooms are tastefully decorated, preserving the authentic Colombian style while incorporating modern amenities with ample furnishings for lounging. Some rooms even feature original frescoes and centuries-old wood-beamed ceilings that evoke the city's rich 17th-century history. For an extra touch of luxury, some suites offer patios with hot tubs, ensuring a truly relaxing stay.

During your stay, indulge at the breakfast buffet before a morning dip in the hotel's pool, built from an old aqueduct. Then, head to the private beach, where you can kick back in a provided lounge chair and enjoy a book. If you want to explore the city, the hotel offers bike rentals, or you can indulge in afternoon tea at the library. Continue your relaxing afternoon with some pampering at the Aurum Spa, offering massages and facials. Cap off your day with a signature cocktail at one of the hotel's bars and a visit to the Alma Restaurant.

A beautiful hotel with a staff that is kind and attentive. The rooms are lovely, the courtyard magical, and the food delicious. There was nothing the staff would not do to make you feel comfortable. It was a quiet retreat in the middle of a bustling city. Once inside, you were transported to serenity. Read more
