I stay there every time I am in Cartegena. Reasonable rates, excellent breakfast, accomidating staff. I think this is my 5th or 6th time staying. Well it's 2022 and I am still very happy with everything at the Atantic!

This is a 3 star hotel with unmet potential. Good location, spacious rooms, nice small pool good cleaners. Central location. Negatives - terrible breakfast offering, 2 lifts mean frequent waits, maintenence issues - no WiFi on my floor, TV only fixed on my last day, shower head partially blocked, one lift went defective 3 days ago, still down. Very noisy from outside - music abd vehicle toots.

Rooms are nice. Clean, modern, and the shower room is spacious. A nice little pool. Location good for being in the centre of things. Cleaners did a good job. Mattresses are rockhard. Although the staff did put an extra quilt on top which softened it. Breakfast was appalling and very low quality with very little choice. Coffee was the worst coffee I’ve ever drunk. Hotel is on the main road. At night I was kept awake every single night to the early hours by bars and clubs playing the music. If you stay here you must bring earplugs. I was on the 10th floor, my friend was on the ninth floor. We both had the same problem with noise from the streets outside, which also included everyone tooting the horn all the time. Beaches are nice, with a good view. But you’re absolutely swamped with various different hawkers selling one thing or another and wanting your business. It made the beach utterly untenable as they literally waited to pounce on you every few metres. Same with hawkers on the street. You just don’t get left alone. While we appreciate in these poor countries they want to make a living, there is a balance and a line. They have a gym. But it is in ruins and all unplugged. What a waste. Overall the hotel is worth the money you pay, £50 a night. Just. It absolutely should have a better breakfast which was really bad. And the location on that main road subjects you to a lot of noise till the early hours.

I am accustomed to staying in American and Canadian hotels, so I am judging this hotel from that perspective. A one line summary would be as follows: “This hotel is a great value for the money if you are looking for a very central location beside the main beach, but do not expect a lot of extra features.” Here are the pros – It is extremely centrally located. You are a 3 minute walk away from the main beach. There is a convenience store a short walk away. There are tons of restaurants, both chain restaurants, and independent restaurants. There is a casino next door if you like that sort of thing. The price was very competitive with other similar hotels. There is a swimming pool and patio area with lounge chairs. There was a free buffet breakfast and the eggs were excellent. The area appears to be extremely safe to walk at night. It is easy to get a taxi quickly. The room was very clean. The room has a refrigerator, safe, and television in the room. The wi-fi was excellent. Here are the cons – The pool is very small. The pool is often in the shade, so the water is colder than it should be for Cartagena. You cannot lounge in the pool because you will get cold. There are only 4 pool check lounge chairs. There are only two elevators and they are kind of slow. There was no coffee maker in my room. The safe was already locked so I could not use it unless I had an employee open it for me. The breakfast is lacking any meat like bacon, sausage, etc. I had to ask for toilet paper for my room from the front desk. They delivered the daily fresh towels to my room at 7 pm and I was in the middle of something with my wife, if you know what I mean. The television is terrible because you only get about 8 to 10 channels. The front desk does not speak English very well, but my wife is from Colombia, so this was not a barrier for me. Would I stay here again? Yes, I would, but only if the price was right, and I was looking for a “beach holiday” rather than a “lounge around the pool” holiday. If you are looking for features that I have listed as “pro” and can live with the “cons” then this hotel is an excellent budget choice for you.

Young girls with little clothing walking in and out of the fire exit to the stair well all hours of the day, and night. The safe instructions are for a different safe. If you ask for help with safe it may not be until next day. My room door would just open at times it has a faulty lock. Maintenance told me do not worry about it, and there is a camera in the hallway. This made me feel uncomfortable during my one night stay. There is no towels available at the pool. You will have to use your shower/room towels.

Do not be fooled by the pictures, this place is not what it seems. My partner and I stayed there and the place is a disappointment, the room was okay clean and not too small. -only two towels in one...

The hotel is clean and exactly how you see it on the photos. Personnel is friendly. The location is great, in the middle of Bocagrande. The only thing that I would not recommend is the breakfast, it...

Staff wasn’t very helpful or friendly, cold shower water, the area in general isn’t as fun as the walled city—really close to the beach, but that’s really all. A hostel is a lot more fun if you’re...

The room is just ok, breakfast is never enough so unless you plan to be there really early prepare yourself to eat leftovers. The service was not good and to top it off a friend was detained at the...

The staff is very nice and the location is great but that's about it. The bed is very hard, it's difficult to get hot water in the shower, breakfast is rather bland. The rooms had a musty smell...

I stayed at Atlantic Lux for three night just checked out today. You really can’t do better for what you pay for in bocagrande. It’s location is perfect, a block from the beach and a 20 minute walk...
