Hotel Bantú was BEAUTIFUL, a work of art every detail of the hotel and our room was so beautiful and added to our stay in Cartagena. We are so happy to have booked our hotel with them in the heart of the walled city. We were in a great location, close to a lot of great bars, restaurants and shops. The included breakfast was delicious, coffee and water available all day. They have a locked gate that requires you to be buzzed in. The staff were so incredible with us, they were helpful with places to go, booking excursions like a guided tour on a chiva and a boat to the private islands of Rosario. They also allowed us a late checkout due to availability, and kept our bags at the reception while we continued to explore and shop. We had the best time at Bantu, and will definitely be back.

I would give this property 10 out of 10 stars if I could. The staff was beyond helpful, friendly and eager for us to have an amazing experience in Cartagena. They were helpful with restaurant referrals as well as a day trip to the Rosario Islands. Breakfast in the courtyard garden was sublime. I would most definitely stay there again and I will refer this property.

Encantador. Cerca de todo y a su vez alejado del ruido. Zona colonial antigua divina cerca de restaurantes buenos y no muy lejos de getsemani tampoco. (Se puede ir caminando). Varios espacios comunes amplios y hermosos, decorados con gusto y calidez, en un ambiente auténtico colombiano. Personal muy atento. Desayuno muy rico. Habitación suite amplia linda y cómoda. Recomiendo evitar las habitaciones que dan a la calle. Y atención en la elección del hotel con los espacios comunes en planta alta o baja. En el caso de Bantu cuenta con hermosos espacios comunes y pequeña pileta en planta baja y planta alta. Pero el calor en planta alta hace menos factible el disfrute de los espacios. Priorizar en la elección del hotel! Bantu es perfecto!
