My wife and I stayed in this hotel and loved it!! We will be back for sure. The owner Brian is a real gem who is busy improving the hotel, cooking those delicious breakfasts, and chatting with the guests. He is very accommodating if you have any special needs and is always willing to help you with whatever you need... More

I was in this hotel together with my girlfriend in august 2012. We both like the hotel, the very good service, the breakfast and especially the location close to the beach very much! I would definitely book the hotel again.

Its difficult to know how to write a review for this place. Its owner, Brian, would be the first to admit that this place isnt the Ritz. It's a fairly tired old hostel which Brian has recently bought, and is slowly rennovating. Its so incongruous - a small hostel in a shopping mall surrounded by ultra modern, 5* skyscraper hotels....

I came to Cartagena alone to start the first leg of my Colombian journey. I booked a room at this hotel because the reviews here at Trip Advisor spoke well of the place, and because the price was right. I'm glad that I stayed here. Well-organized, clean, friendly, safe, and knowledgable are the adjectives that come to mind first when... More

We initially booked one night here but it soon turned in to three. On arrival we were met by a lovely receptionist who took us to our room. We were travelling South America for my husbands birthday and at the same time celebrating our wedding anniversary. Though this is a budget hotel they put us in one of their best... More

I cannot say enough about the terrific service at Hotel Pueblito Plaza. Brian is a fantastic host, and the staff obviously enjoys working for him. Our 2 small dogs were welcomed with open arms by both humans and the in-house dogs. We spent more than a week at Pueblito Plaza while we waited for our vehicle to arrive on a... More

I was trying to kind of "rough it" on this trip, but promptly booked out of the hostel my friends were staying in and instead booked into this hotel. I had read all of the reviews and it seemed promising. It was just what I needed - clean, well kept, friendly, AC in the rooms, great area location, even TVs.... More

I cannot say enough about the friendly owner, Brian, and his staff including the manager, Carlos. All were extremely Accomodating and helpful when it came to offering advice and recommendations to Cartagena's restaurants and attractions. The hotel is ideally located to the beaches right on the San Martin strip and just beside a new big bucks Intercontinental hotel (coming soon).... More

The hotel is owned by Brian a charming Englishman who has had an interesting life and always makes time to chat to the guests, to offer advice, find out about them and see how they're liking his hotel. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I arrived early at the hotel and had to wait to check in but they... More
