Not recommended
picture is very deceiving! It was very dirty & not maintained. Pictures might of taken when they first open. Pool is very very small. Pillows were super hard & Maud service only made the bed. No fresh towels and shower was never cleaned. Breakfast was disappointing. Everything tasted like its been over cooked & reheated few times. Door handle was loose so I wasn't sure if door was lock properly. Microwave was barely hanging on the wall.

The staff was great, but the rooms are mediocre. Location is in a good area with rooftop pool, but pillows were hard and they could do something more in the way of decorating and comfortable bedding. Outdated and breakfast was just OK

They need to explain better how to get your room cleaned. They’re not changing your sheets automatically everyday.

The hotel was conveniently located in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore shops and restaurants. The staff was friendly and helpful, and I enjoyed the all-inclusive package. However, the cleanliness of the room was disappointing, with hair found in various areas. The dinner buffet offered a limited selection that wasn't to my taste. Overall, the hotel served its purpose for a short stay, but improvements in cleanliness and dining options would enhance the experience.

La Gran Via offered me a relaxing atmosphere on arriving Cartagena. The view was exceptional. The beach vibe and the coastal feel was quite immersive. The staff are quite friendly, courteous, and did address any concerns I had during my stay. The hotel was quite clean and well maintained and the breakfast had a lot of excellent options, adding a delightful culinary experience to the stay. In all - I will be visiting again as I enjoyed my stay here

Super disappointed. Got the full all inclusive. EVERY time I went to the bar there was no one there. So I didn’t get a single drink of alcohol during my stay. The food was ok but kept being recycled/ what we had for dinner, we had for lunch the next day too until it was all gone. The room was nice and the staff were lovely, but don’t do the semi or all inclusive because it’s absolutely not worth it.

Colombia is one of those places that grabs you by the collar and doesn’t let go. You land expecting a colorful escape, and you end up finding something much deeper. This place? Worth every damn penny. The people here work hard—harder than most—to make sure every traveler walks away with a piece of their soul. You feel it in the streets, in the smiles, in the way they welcome you like you're family. Respect that. They’ve earned it. It’s not just a vacation; it’s a reminder of the beauty that happens when people truly care about sharing their world with you.
