Casa Pestagua Relais Châteaux

We saw this place in passing while stating elsewhere in Old Town. The fountain and pool in the distance are most inviting! We got a free upgrade, welcome drink (chose a mojito), and 15 min foot massages.

Pillow top rectangular limestone tile on main areas are gorgeous but hard to walk on! There are weekly events -mostly wedding parties held here and i can’t imagine wearing high heals!

Most beautiful house in Cartagena’s old city. Everyone at the hotel was extra-friendly, but specially Claude Pimont, the manager. He provide us with a room-upgrade and offered late check-out free of charge. Cartagena is famous for its top-quality gourmet food, and the restaurant at Casa Pestagua is among the best. Definitely coming back!

El edificio bellísimo

Algunas paredes podrían ser mas restauradas. Es un.bellísimo patrimonio cultural

People make a place and Casa Pestagua delivers in spades. It is a unique property, beautiful and sympathetic to original house of the Count of Pestagua, taking you back to the romantic novels of Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Great location, warm welcome. Although we had some issues with our room (we were upgraded to junior suite on ground floor) they soon disappeared as we were made to 'feel at home' by the charming staff and charismatic Claude, the owner. Breakfast offered a great variety of choices of which you could try all you wished for... and we did! Colombian specialties, wonderful freshly squeezed fruit juices, choices of fresh fruit (Colombia offers some of the best fruit in the world), eggs any way, meats, breads etc all delicious. Dinner at Amadeus - top quality, flavours, presentation, lovely atmosphere especially if you are lucky enough to be there when talented guitarist Roberto is playing. We ate here twice, that good! After our complimentary foot massage (make sure you take up the offer, its a first for me.... was fab) we relaxed by the pool one afternoon delicious cocktails - banana daiquiri and rum punch, both excellent.

A few suites do indeed face onto the restaurant courtyard but once relaxed we realised that they are cleverly designed so no one can really see in and are quite private, tasteful simple comfortable quality decor, with every amenity, we were happy
